Yes, I could do this...

But I would like to have a vehicle with actual nuts on the ends of bolts, and exhaust systems that don't drag on the ground before you start...

But even more fun would be to watch them drive that to a dirt road and attempt to turn it... wonder how many different directions the assemblies would go?

We did that between rounds on the funny car tour last spring and summer.

Sometimes 4x a day for 3 days and I'm not young and buff like those guys, well young anyways.

And you actually used threaded fasteners... and deserved the word "rebuild."

And I haven't been young and buff since the Nixon administration...

Still scratching my head on why there was no pressure/water release when the cooling system was disconnected. Still, very entertaining!

Tommy,
Coolant must have beed empty. I guess since they don't drive it far.
