What's on your bench?

Darn your hides. Making me miss the ole 69 I sold back in 08 after barn went down on all 3 of the oldies in 06. 100mph winds
Frame was almost touching the ground from the weight.

I had an orange/white striped '69 Camaro (396/Muncie 4-sp/posi-trac rear/Lakewood traction bars/Cragar wheels) back in '88. Stationed at MCAS Cherry Point in NC..and traded it for an '81 Corvette I just had to have. If I could only do that deal over again...

Shipping damage. Pretty common.

The one on the right looks used, but that one on the left...

Also, there's something extra behind the flywheel on that left hand one. You better throw it away before it breaks something.

Dern German quality control...

They were both new when they were damaged. The one on the right just got used some before I got ahold of it.

Is that something that Shaun could fix? Obviously not something you want to see on a new saw but someone could probably put them to use if repaired.

You can get just one case half from Stihl. So.....I just replace the flywheel side.

I see... didn't realize that was an option.

That sucks

The rest.

The 66 Impala convt I just started restoring. Was moms uncles and he had bought it new.

My 65 Chevelle convt was one of my 2 cars I owned in HS. I worked through HS and always had 2 cars.

69 Was my late 80's 90 restore.

I did that to my Dad’s 026 not long after he bought it. JB Weld has held since 1996 or so.

 

[maulhead]

That's a pretty bold statement.

Normally, I'm the one pissing off the masses with my comments.

LOL

Just trying to lessen your load a little.

Got to run two of my monkeys today. It was a good day.

Odd, I have owned 3 of them and thought they were dogs, different strokes for different folks, for the weight of the 461, I would rather have a 064, 372, 7910.

The weight.

The reason I sold my 3 classic Mustangs when I got married … Needed the money and had no place to keep them … could not let them sit outside and rust.

Two 68 Fastbacks and the 70 Boss.
