Ace Mechanic Dave-How's school

[Tinster]

Saint David of Wrench, who performed a miracle
and brought Crypty back to life started school yesterday
to get his teaching certificate so he can pass on his
great knowledge and auto wisdom to youngsters.

I wish David all the best and hope he will keep us posted
on his progress in school.

DPO Pedro flagged me down as I drove past his house
yesterday and told me how happy he was that the car
he sold Wendy was "still" running so well.

So DPO Pedro offered me another of his special cars
at a discount rate for 2nd time buyer. Only $8,000.
and Pedro was honest this time and did admit the car
needed a "little work". I went to see it before I
wrote the check.

Think I can handle this restore from what I have learned?

School is fine. Six hours a day (tough but I'll make it Ha HA). I found strange white stuff on my yard as I got home, and I don't like wearing 60 Lbs. of clothing everyday. I want to go back WAAAA! Dave

May need a little more than any of the BIG 3 can supply!

Gonna take a lot of PB Blaster if you ask me...

Dale,

That does look like a V-8 in that honey of a starter project and you are only officially qualified to work on in-line six's at this time.

Better take a pass on this one until Dave gets back down and instructs you formally in the fine art of tuning V-8's because it looks as though that's all this sweet ride needs to bring it to the top.

A V-8 Paul? Are you sure??

DPO Pedro swears it's an inline
4 cylinder, TR3

Dale, I'm positive.

I could be going out on a limb here, but do you think that could be am early Ratco frame? Better double check with Pedro on that item.

 

[Banjo]

ooohhhh Dale! snap that up quick! that's one of the ultra rare 61 Sebring "dually" equipped TR3 pseudo V8s with the special extended wheelbase. Looks like its not far from being ready to run. It's already had the extra lightening service performed by creekbed racing to ensure it's chances at winning the race will be minimized.
Slap down the cash and laugh all the way to the Crypt.

I knew it!!! They did a prototype frame on that model!! Had the first over and under shock set up.

Thanks for adding the exact model to the description.

Please check your email. I need some info from you.
