Did you pick up 2 extra 5" tubes and caps?
So you didn't go to Silver Dollar City when it was open?

Corn field...West Point, Nebraska...,was going to estimate today's mileage. And yes on the 5" stuff. West Point is now of Omaha, hwy 275, maybe 80 miles east of Norfolk.

Helpful hint : trade for F-350. Sit back & relax --be like setting in your lazy boy at home at 65 MPH.

Come to think of it a 454 could be in OC's truck. The turbo hydromatic 400 would expire quickly towing a fiver with all those mods though ..

If you can't stand it, sit down! You won't hear anyone say anything about a filthy 5er with the noise that clunky old Dodge makes. Didn't bother you in Concord.

Went to test he Honda today. Gassed up and turned on gas ran out the bottom. The old Honda gas bowl has shrank so it doesn't seal any longer. Going to get a new one when the service shop open tomorrow.

The gas bowl just falls through the knurled but. Had a rototiller once that had the same thing happen.
