Nice!  I think I see at least a couple of carbs that have had Carmen's magic touch!   :hello2:

I have some serious cabin fever!  I would like to be building an engine or something but
stuck at home these days.    Sorting through photos is not getting it done.   Must take action.

Rearrange your home!! (Re: 28 barrels of fun)

Dear John, Ted, and mid-60s Buick owners with cabin fever,

I have some serious cabin fever!  I would like to be building an engine or something but
stuck at home these days.    Sorting through photos is not getting it done.   Must take action.


. . . . Well now there is exactly one thing to do.  Change your house so that you can rebuild engines at home!  After all, what's the difference between a kitchen and a mechanics workshop - with a few rearrangements! . . .

Just one small problem with this idea.  Either you eat at restaurants all the time or you starve to death!! . . . . .  :BangHead:

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:
