Gotta show you the shifter. Went from 318 manual trans manual steering to auto trans power steering. Everything in and out 4 times.

The wood was from a railing spindle, knob was off the three on the tree stick.

And 714 closed chamber heads. Quote: Believe it or not but one article that I read stated that these Swirl Port heads would out perform the X or J heads due to the better combustion chamber. Even though the valves were smaller. The chamber is 62cc and I plan to check how far the piston is in the hole.

Tim, did you ever have a build thread on this car?

No. Not really, was posted all over the place. Sorry.

Kinda figured that since I couldn't find one. Just a bunch of individual threads. No worries, I will hit you up when I have questions.

Yep, it's really cool looking. It's definitely the harvest moon. You can feel the nip in the air of old man winter coming far too soon.

The tree colors were looking pretty awesome today too.

You need the rest of the crew to help keep you awake!

 

[Ddaddy]

Speaking of the crew, I wonder where Scamper got to?

 

[dartnabout]

Hasn't Scampy been around? Maybe Mrs. Scampy grounded him or forbids him to hang out with such delinquents

 

[Tooljunkie]

Totally forgot, i bought 60 hubcaps back in may, should open the boxes....

His last post on FABO was at 7:55 am Friday. Not like him to go quiet this long.

That's a lot of hubcaps. Plans for them?

 

[dartnabout]

You can't really see it but I took a hub cap / wheel cover for everyone to sign last week.

Any good ones?

That is a collectors item. Worth at least 50 cents more than the regular hubcap is.

Just texted him, he's ok...
