Sweet find. I had a 1985 CJ7 that I modified and ran at the Hammers for years. It was pretty capable, but my buddies moved into buggies, so rather than destroy the Jeep, I got a buggy. I still frequent the Hammers.
Got a favor to ask. I have a 351 in my 1968 Bronco. It is a Windsor. If yours is, can you take pictures of the distributor to plug wires so I can compare firing order. Mine does not appear to be standard. Three should do it. I know a weird request.

One of the things I have wondered about the animal bridges is, do the predator animals just wait on the other side for their prey? Seems easy pickings to me.
I have a 2022 BMW GS and a 2015 KTM Super Adventure. I have taken the KTM to Alaska twice. At 78 I am primarily an asphalt rider, but will take dirt roads to what is at the end. The 1290 is for sale and is a super bike. I got the low suspension on the GS. Right now I am in Beatty after a 250...
In Jay Leno's Monday show with the engineers of the Cybertruck, Jay asked the question about fording water. There is a mode you select that pressurizes the battery enclosure so water cannot enter. Musk has hired some amazing folk to take his ideas and develop useful products. Oh, and all made in...
