Stop in for a cup of coffee

Not sure if this is going to live even after a getting dingle balled real good.

 

[Ddaddy]

Dang, that would be a tough one.

That was my thought too, but I like a puzzle to be a challenge!

 

[Princess Valiant]

I'm wondering if a head gasket did this because why the rust on the head mounting surface.

That's a big thing I learned from MN folks, you always get outdoors. And have fun. I gotta take a break from all the gloom. People aren't making sense around here...you'd think rich people would be smarter! Yep "hanging around" I wanted to see if I could still get myself up on the monkey bars at 60, it is way harder than when we were kids! Took several tries but I did it and went back and did it again.

You have bars where monkeys hang around????

I put this one together this afternoon to use as a jigsaw puzzle image. I think it would work...

The 74 duster is totally cute

You should know I don’t back read haha

Because there's too much hair on your back to see the print through....

 

[krazykuda]

Very easy to start. A $50 kit get's you started. The plastic bottles and even the caps can be reused as well as the cool fermentation keg. Refill kits are as cheap as $20 that makes 2 gallons.

Too bad I don't like beer... Do they have whiskey kits????

 

[krazykuda]

Yea. I know what you mean.
Happens every time I hit a light pole. What a PIA.
I hate when that happens!

That looks like a head gasket failure...

Put a straight edge on the head and block surfaces and check for warpage...

You can use a fel pro head gasket for a better seal... But check the surfaces are straight first... Then have any of them milled to get them back...

I need to tear down a 351 engine tomorrow

 

[Tooljunkie]

Got the 05 mustang running today.

Turned out to be the inertia switch in the trunk.

That was an easy fix.

Lol. Forgot that one...
Speaking of inertia switches, the terminals like to cook and go open circuit.

Dont worry, Ray! its just to Separate the scrap aluminum from the steel/cast iron.
That process should only be on the 351m though.
