289Cobra,
Well I'll be....that boat has a Rolls Royce Gremlin (non-supercharged Merlin, I believe)...it GOES! Speaking of ageless wonders, we did an organic (!) sandblasting (with walnut shells) on Mark Mason's "Baby Bootlegger". "Baby Bootlegger's" engine is a 1916 Huspano Sueeza (Sp?) with double o-h cams, sodium-filled valves, and several more tricks normally associated with Porsches, etc. of the 1990s+!!! Re your car...I've already committed to another car but believe me, yours would be it, otherwise.

jldunkle,
Stay the course, lad...you can't pull a reenactment of the Hindenberg around here without getting a fecal tsunami in return---kudos...and....(the old usual)...Duck and Cover! That exchange reminded me of the Black Knight in "The Quest...",
aside from the above-mentioned spectacle!
Cheers
