    Another fun road/action movie from the days that stunts were real with no CGI.

    I haven't thought of that one in years, it has to be in the archives here somewhere.

    Sad that we are quietly loosing all these folks who provided us so much entertainment.

    If I turned sideways you’d likely miss me. Maybe if I’m lucky I can stay a spell this time. :fingerscrossed:

    Oh Hell No. Gotta flip this around some. Bright side is I’m wearing Jeans that I wore when I was 18. Bad part is I’m sizing out of Adult bands.

    Positive outlook never lets you down.
    Attended a disaster last night & when I got on location all I could say was “Well, I should smile.” Easier to attract flies with honey instead of vinegar. :)

    The shop got slow and the boss man panicked and brought in a bunch of older stuff we usually wont take in, now we are busy and have a backlog of this kind of work haha. On the upside I get left alone when there's carbs in peices 20230606_101624.jpg

    Sometimes it is a very thin line between being in the black or red.

    One has no idea just how long the slow times might last.

    The last thing you want to do is lay off a good tech.

    Painting lines and the floors only lasts so long.

    Looks like a quad side draft carb set-up. What does that go to?

    Off an older merc 2stroke outboard. It's a 2+2 style. So it runs off the top 2 carbs until about 1800 rpm then the bottom 2 come in
