GA Grabber engine swap ....

Ohh, it's possible. He could just sit on me, and there is no way in heck I could get up. Probably break a rib or 2.

 

I was just told this story at lunch today.
A good friend of mines uncle was at the store. When he came out to the parking lot he watched a young man hit his Cadillac with the door of a pickup truck. He ran up and knocked on the window, the young man rolled down the window and his uncle said, "hey you just hit my car with your door and I want to know what you’re going to do about it". The young man got out of the truck and punched the man in the eye and in the process knocked the man back into his Cadillac and broke his glasses. The young man then said that's what I am going to do about it, what do you think now old man! Well adrenaline kicked in and the old man jumped up and hit the young man with a right cross and a left jab. The young man fell to the ground with a bloody nose. The old man leaned over him and said what do you think about this old man Now! He then got into his Cadillac and drove away.


BTW The old man is 62 years old and used to box when he was in the service.

Sorry for the Hijack Dan

 

He should of made sure to bang the kids truck with the Caddy's door on the way out.
Goes to show there's always somebody badder than you.
I remember out in Texas while in the Air Force. At a gas station a young black fellow that my wife happened to work with on base, was filling up at a station across from the base. An older cowboy asked him pretty nicely to turn down his stereo. The guy reached in and really cranked it up. The Cowboy walks over real easy like. Reaches in and it looked like he pulled the whole stereo out of tha dash! The young guy took a swing at the cowboy and the old fellow never swung at him but tossed him to the ground like he was a calf in a calf ropeing contest. Dislocated the guys shoulder. He was in a sling for weeks and my wife sure gave him a hard time about it after i told her what I saw.
Another highjack, sorry.

I'll be mowing close to where I-40 and I-75 meet. Depending on the time of the day I will be near the campbell station road or cedar bluff exits. I will be in my truck also. The maverick hasnt pulled a trailer yet.

Tim is lives on the otherside of Knoxville so you will get to drive threw it.

 

same here...

 

Remind me when. I'm real busy these days.Do you still need eng. hoist? Do you still have my phone#?

 

Dave ... can I pick up the engine hoist next weekend and hold onto it for the week? Don't have your number .... Dan

 

Dan, mine is available.

 

Hmmm .. I need to pick up that clutch mount so maybe I'll stop by and get that and the hoist and check out your new 73 ....

 

Bring the manifold wiy you. When you coming?

 

Probably next Saturday if that is good for you .... Does your hoist come apart? I need to fit it in my Expedition ...

I should be able to pull the intake off and bring it down also ...

 

It folds up. Fold down the back two seats and it will fit.

 

Cool ... the second row of seats fold flat and the 3rd row seats remove so it's about the size of an 8 foot pickup bed with a cap in the back ...

 

With it folded up, you need less than a six foot by three foot space.

 

Next Saturday good for you? I'll come down for breakfast or something ....
