Thanks for the input, everybody.
Is this engine something that would be a candidate for a jalopy engine? This flathead military surplus engine has been in use as a generator for...
God bless off-roaders.
Charging $$ for having my cars in a wedding never crossed my mind. My cars have been in maybe 5-10 weddings. Hmm...
Never had a problem with the local fuzz except for the time I went past him doing 67 in a 45. Then I got a ticket, well deserved. He did his job...
