      and oh will you make him pay. :) I can already hear the flood of love coming for cutting up a stock Bronco. I don't care whether or not the fenders were cut, or that it maintains its 'patina' (which is a new way of saying 'lazy') Once those Ford owners get their cars started, they'll be on their way to your house (which means you're safe for now)

      Can someone please explain why vw beetle engines make such low hp for their size? ...Like a 1203cc Buell air cooled engine based on old Harley Davidson engine tech with pushrods, 2 valves per cyl, low max rpm can put out 100hp with a few mods & around 90hp stock. Yet it seems like many 1600cc & up vw engines. Even the 1915cc seem to struggle to make 100hp even with lot's of upgrades.

    I love your work and I appreciate your humor. My friend built a Bronco for son. It was about the same year. He even made a new tailgate because the original one was all rusted out. He did a very nice job. It came with a 6 cylinder but he put in a 289 V-8.

    I will never, ever, not even in a billion years, use another non-lubeable heim joint on a suspension link ever again. Not even once. Here in the future, we use johnny joints. They are no relation to Clarence and have these cute things call 'zerts' that allow one to lube the joint - thus preventing sloppy seconds... I mean, sloppy suspensions.
