JUst turned the tube on and it was on MT. British show called Salvage Hunters Classic Cars. They were doing a 'Morris Wicker Wagon' and wanted wider original looking wheels. Went to a custom wheel shop where they showed the entire process of making a steel wheel to look like the originals. :thumbsup:

I don’t see how that makes any sense. You would think Columbus would be a hub. If not that you could go In the right direction to Cinci, Indy, Louisville...
What are ‘we’ getting anyway. :poke: Lol

:lol: Sounds like some mail order I have coming :lol: Colorado to SoCal 1 day. Then it spends 2 days moving around SoCal a total of about 25 miles. 180 miles from the house and it's estimated 4 days away :lol:. The Fransiscan Monks could cover 180 miles in 6 days on foot that's why the California Missions are where they are :lol:I never should have watched those Galagher videos up above :rofl:

I sold a bunch of stuff on ebag several years ago. Some big stuff... Two items went to the west coast. Both were boxed up. There was a child's vanity that legs came off and a huge wooden flat belt drive mill wheel. One of them made it to its destination in like a week. The other one meandered all over the country. Even passed through a couple places twice. Finally got there in about a month.
 
It's Sublime Sunday! Good morning!

Bit early for that. Especially since the Steelers have the night game.
I need to get my butt outside and do some work. Gonna tear the little steps off and replace a bunch of floor boards on lower deck.

That's because they didn't want your old cigars!
 
Ok, not back reading 500+ posts. Been super busy. Got the Whiplash cam installed in the Demon. Did the breakin and man this sounds wicked!! Love it. Will try and post a video somehow later. Dad was over and got to hear it fire up and help with the breakin. My boy was out there too so 3 generations working on Dads old car. How cool. Then autographed the street out front. Couple neighbors not so happy down the road..

Looks like it works. Well
 
I have a new small block Whiplash I don't know whether I want to install or not. I really don't want to turn my Swinger into a hot rod. LOL Love the lope though!

What impressed me so much is for as radical as it is, it has great manners. Doesnt push through the brakes at a stop sign or lug down the road, but boy it goes! Definitely dont want the Dart to be a hot rod...nothing but trouble that would be..

I put the cam specs in the Desktop Dyno with some mild ported big valve heads and 340 ex. manifolds and it is a torque monster in a 318. Only 334 hp at 5000 rpm but 427 lb/ft at 1500 and 451 lb/ft at 2500 rpm,
 
When I got the car, it had a more radical cam in it. It wasn’t what I wanted for cruising around so I swapped it out for what I have now.

Here’s what it used to sound like...
