    PB and I are still discussing power plants. It is a little ways off to start even thinking of stuffing an engine in the hole - like Ghostdriver is working on - getting mine up on stands and start tearing down the brakes. I did see last night when pressure washing one of the front knuckle...

    M43 Resurrection

    Man do I feel embarrased on my speed after watching these pics - what does it feel like to be able to touch and feel an engine [thumbzup] It may have nothing to do with old age and forgetfulness - I think GD is messing with you and just hiding stuff around the shop just to watch you look for...

    New armor arrived

    I would need a lolipop to suck on while walking around all that - I could blame the drooling on something else. It would be an honor just to sit around watching the rebuilders working on them to clean them up. There is just so much stuff there - maybe that idea of loosing one is not far off...
