    Oh, oh just ask!

    Your old marauder in florida almost made it to my garage, guy was selling it not too long ago. He put some miles on it.

    We just couldnt come to a agreement on the deal.

    Almost got it done today despite the rain. The ultimate set back was a coolant leak at the oil filter adapter housing. It never fails. I cannot catch a break.

    Hell yeah, i hate working in the rain. Bought that thing about 9 months ago and was the first time ive used that tent.

    If we were about 15 years younger, that thing would have been running and driving that night!

    Lets move 3 cars and put it on the lift to finish it, oh, order graphite gaskets for the flanges and 1 1/2 long 3/8x16 bolts and metal lock nuts,.. i might have a bunch in the nut and bolt bin, remind me to look.

    Long story short. Had an oiling issue in the driver's side head. Tore it apart in the car found a loose cam cradle causing a lack of oil pressure to the front 2 cylinders intake cams tap tap tap. Not my fault paid an engine builder to assemble a long block SMH. It is running. Had a temp issue due to me just being done with working on the car. Burped cooling system car is up and running.

    I serviced this car 3 or 4 year's before I had a Marauder. I got the opportunity to buy it last winter with a blown engine. I knew I always wanted it but the timing was bad. I fought this car every step of the way but I drove it today and it felt good. Thank you to this community fir your help. Bryan, I was ready to fire sale this car I appreciate your help very much. 300k miles, brought back to life....................

    You have a problem, but luckily I know where you could buy a cheap silver birch that needs a little bodywork to complete your collection.

    I always thought a 30 mile trip in a DTR would take close to a week.
