    Or so I thought!? Hope everyone is having a better day that me ! Ugh Blew the motor in my 65 post car trying to get it home and put away for winter! Ugh! Then I back my old Ranger pickup out of the garage to make room for the post and for some reason the throttle is stuck in wot! So shutter off before I blow another motor! One is enough for a day!

    What is the saying? When it rains it pours. I’m sorry for your bad luck, and what should’ve been an awesome cruise.

    Thinking spun bearing and took out rod!? Would have and should have shut her down but on hill with not many places to go and didn't want to loose power till I crested and was going down! See no damage to the spark plugs,engine turns by hand but oil in antifreeze! We are thinking there was a on going problem and found clues that the engine was dropped !? Got to rip it down, hopefully savable!? It was numbers matching!
