    Yeah, what's going on in that photo?!

    Looks like the flatty is hanging from the exhaust of a Taurus.

    I gave mine a pat on the head as I walked by to grab the snow shovel.
    I'm so done with winter, but it ain't done with me.

    Hugged? I want to kick mine square in the nuts! It's got something going on with it that Bruce Lancaster hasn't even seen! And after I've dumped all that money on it too...

    Kind of needed to hang motor to put flywheel and adaptor on it also load on truck ,all acomplished in one cool move. Hug was just a bonus. Hung motor from tow loop, worked well I think.

    This reminds me I need to go and fire mine up. If I let her sit for a week she doesn't like me and won't start. Then I have to go find the gas can and prime the carb. I have gotten some work done on my other one, finally got the T-5 installed now I need a driveshaft .

    Well, I would if I could get down under my hood far enough! I threw an MSD ready-to-run in it a couple weeks ago, and got to drive it for the first time last week. What a difference! Dead cold or warmed up, it just NEVER misses! It made a world of difference.
