https://images2.imgbox.com/55/1e/0ERdfT1q_o.jpg I'm guessing that the original engine was gone when the restoration was done. So instead of going the NOM route, the owner went with the "Go Big Or Go Home" route. That's a Ford 427. |

All those gas station signs you saw in the 1960s and 1970s were manufactured by Rohm & Haas. |

https://images2.imgbox.com/88/31/8g9Gcj6g_o.jpg 1970 R code Mustang Hardtop and 1970 L78 Camaro SS 396. Both with 4 speed. Which one do you think weighs (curb weigh) more? If you guessed the Camaro you would be right - by 90 pounds: 3550 versus 3460 |

the IDF has up-armored Cat D9 dozers for making 15' wide roads through rubble. That oughta get the job done. They even have one that works by remote control |

Today was the last day for the Court to notify me I would have to report for Jury Duty. No email so it's over. |

My Uncle Mel - my mother's sister's husband - was an engineer. The word "RISK" was not part of his vocabulary. I loved him dearly because he was such a down to earth guy. He never treated me like a kid - but as a young adult. When they use the expression: "Salt Of The Earth" that was my Uncle Mel. He worked for a company that was contracted by NASA. What he exactly did, I never knew and when I asked him, he sort of hemmed and hawed but never told me so now I assume it was classified. He was a Sargent in the US Army and fought in Korea. Anyways, he did something very good. Good enough to earn a substantial bonus. Uncle Mel never owned a new car. Always some 5 to 7 year old POS. Well, he decided it was time to use the bonus. And throwing caution to the wind, instead of getting a subtle color he bought the car you see in this photo. And it was RED. I am really RED. It also had a 383-4V in it. Boy was I impressed. Uncle Mel wasn't just brave and smart. He was also cool. It lasted 2 years. It was a gas guzzler, much bigger than he was used to and the newness I guess had worn off. So he traded it in on a puke yellow Duster. Uncle Mel was no longer cool. Remember the expression: "out of the frying pan and into the fire." That's what happened with the Duster. Brand new car and the front fenders were rusting off of it after only 1 year. |
