The Boeing 777 uses 12 main tires in it's landing gear. Each cost $6000. Dunlop is the manufacturer and states that each tire can be retread up to 7 times which brings the cost to operate down considerably.

----Rare color, rare engine, rare AC with this engine, just rare! Just me but I would have built it with a white top, and,,,maybe, just maybe, a white gut. Wonder what paperwork comes with this? That's only if I was going to keep it for ever.....Bill S

I'd agree Bill. Unless it is proven to be Evening Orchid with black top and Interior, I too would have built it with a white top and white interior as well. Now That would look KILLER! The red lines do look out of place, I would have put white stripe or gold walls on it as well. But as they always say: "That's why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream".

Very unique and rare car if proven to be Real with L-79, 4 speed, A/C, ect.

I didn't know A/C was available with a solid lifter engine. I thought that was always a taboo with Chevrolet ?
And YES, absolutely White top and INTERIOR, Bill. I always cringe when you describe an interior as a "gut". Sounds like we're riding in the stomach of an animal when we drive our cars...:no:

The L79 uses a hydraulic cam not solid.

Can we talk about the "elephant" in the room? I lost availability to this site for 12 hours. Am I the only one?

The Megladon first appeared in our oceans about 20 million years ago. They survived for about 17 million years - died out about 3 million years ago. Megladon means "Big Tooth." The largest would weigh in around 50 tons

----Mitch,,,I apologize. It's a holdover from many days selling cars and going to "dealer" auctions. Every guy at those auctions used the word and sometimes I just do it as habit.....Bill S

I dont think they were available together either. Especially since compressor overspeed issues, hence the 3.36 rear ratio with ac.

Wasn't the Corvette 327/365 engine available for 1 year with AC?

Out of all the creatures in the animal kingdom, hairy frogs are among some of the most freaky. These creatures, also known as the trichobatrachus robustus, or the horror frog, live in Central Africa where they break their own bones in order to produce claws when faced with predators.

Males grow up to about four inches and grow long hair-like strands of skin and arteries. Its believed that this “hair” helps the frogs take in more oxygen into their skin.

Female Blanket Octupus. She is 40,000 times larger than the male. She can grow to 6 feet while the male is the size of a walnut.
