...seems a lot of shooter nuts are car nuts and especially the ones who were teenagers during the true muscle car times 65-72..nothing better than carburetors, white knob shifters or those Mopar woodies, dumping the clutch, those red cloth whipes and burning rubber...nothing under the hood except 8 spark plug wires, a coil and cool can. Wonder if we'd have fallen so deep in love if we had our motors look like the modern muscle motors..I KNOW NOT !!!

For my job, I remove the transfer case and the transmission that's attached. I don't work on the part that looks like Medusa's hair.
