You can say no to free. Free can be really expensive.

LobsterboyX posted:no, but I know about that guy - my friends car is this Got it in one. When you said land speed straight 8 I thought of that thing. Was gonna laugh if the world was that small. They brought it to a shop used to work at to dyno tune it. Iirc it had a mechanical fuel injection setup they were trying to get working. It blew up, but man it made a sound before it did.

StormDrain posted:Awesome find and interesting writeup. Without your knowledge I'd have no idea it was rare at all, which is probably why that might be the only one. ^^^ I am glad to see it go to a good home. Looks like you've got a lot of work ahead of you.

heyou posted:Posts like this are why I bookmarked this thread, I don't think it's boring at all reading stream of consciousness old car tinkering. I suspect most other regular readers would agree. We're on the journey with you, and it rules learning about all this old school stuff! Same! Anything I can't plug a laptop into when there's an engine issue is black magic fuckery and learning about how it works is great. Also the practical stuff about nla parts and finding ways to rebuild them.

StormDrain posted:Your garage reminds me of an old Italian womans kitchen. It's not designed in any way that am architect, amateur, or shop tech would put it together. It's too small. It's too crowded with things that aren't tools or parts. The lighting isn't powerful enough and it's too darkly colored. Yet it's been molded to your form and your skills, and the product that comes out of there is beautiful. You know that I have to much money and need a garage feel some pics have where nothing has a single scratch and the walls are unblemished and the floor is perfect epoxy and there's one neon sign or some poo poo on the wall? Your post captures the feel of how much lbx's garage is the polar opposite of that. I dunno. It's got soul.
