Will start with new fan (in list above) that actually moves air and the shroud I have sitting on the shelf in the garage. there is a brass 3 row dessert cooler in it now that works well with a little air across it. The starter use to be able to move the rig over samll obstacles in first and no issue in low (it's toast, It's been on there for 20 yrs, I got my $29.99 out of it)....I think the old mallory dual point could use some attention also. Sometimes it takes a little cranking to spark off......I know, fuel injection and HEI!!! One day maybe a FI 351 and ZF will fall in my lap. But for this round, I'd just like to say that wheeling with a compentant bunch of guys that have proven to get my broke junk going in precarious places in short order was very much appreciated!!! Sorry for being THAT GUY!! Also witnessing that there was never hesitation to jump in when needed even in emergent situations created by not too bright escapades of others around with an intelligent direction is also very imprssive. Great group of guys to wheel with!
