  2. Midget in the fence
  3. Traded the qualifying races for a local sprint car show
  4. Guy on at a Mecum auction had a 53 resomod Vette. They asked why he did do a resomod? Said it was cheaper than restoring it to original.
  5. Some of these you need to watch what has been claimed. I use to own a 1971 W30 and have helped judge cars at shows. The one in the video is highly questioned it to be an original W30. A W30 was not available with A/C and power brakes and a 4 speed. A/C and power brakes was only available with an automatic and had a different cam to create enough vacuum for the power brakes. His claimed that they added A/C would be a very very big job. The firewall is completely a different stamping to accommodate the A/C condenser unit. They would of had to actually cut out a section of the fire wall and modified it to weld it back in accommodate A/C. The Hurst shifter was factory installed not dealer installed. It should have red inner fender walls and a factory aluminum intake and it just sounds odd that he would have to replace the fender wells and the intake. I've not seen bad original inner fender unless the car was in an accident or sat out for an extend period of time with the hood open. The intakes had a habit of cracking by the water sending unit but was an easy fix. It should have F heads but he didn't get into that amount of detail. Standard 442 had G heads. Nice car but I question if its an original W30
  6. De Pere is about 60 miles Nth of me and remember hearing about the story.
  7. LOL. I'd buy a fleet cheap sacrificial drones to start. Guy I use to with work quite to work for subcontractor flying drones. They worked with public service to check out the high voltage powerlines
  8. But yet Social Security will run out in 2032. Maybe apply this newly found 3B to the Social Security trust? Oh no we can't do that.

  14. Same dia sway bar as a VR1. .531 dia just measured them
  15. When I use to carry the Ski-Doo gauntlet on my sled would fold one up tight and put it in the glove box and the other one in the underseat storage where I also have a tool bag
  16. Friend of mine gave me a roll of clear film. I put it on my tunnel when I put a storage bag on so it wouldn't scratch the tunnel. He does wraps and they use it on painted bumpers to prevent stone chips.
  17. 🤣👏👏👏 👍
  18. Did your old sled have the smart grips? I have the Ski-Doo gauntlets that I use to carry along and take on and off as needed. I do have some issues with my hands getting cold when it gets below zero. Since I've had sleds with smart grips I haven't had to use gauntlets. Still have them in the truck but no longer carry them on the sled.
  19. No feelings either way. It's just your obsession with him is comical. MC and Trump HSR and Badger Carry on with the show
