That’s a lovely slant 6 you’ve got there. Looking forward to seeing this one come together.

Oh going to watch this one closely. Want to do one up as an M880 army version like I drove in the ‘70s so I can see how this builds.

My very brief time as an ambulance driver was in the box version on these. |
