Hey ! Don't be messing with the Godfather or all your head nuts will fall off and all your 34mm carbs will leak copious amounts of fuel.
     It is amazing what you can do with a ARK-welder when you know how to use it. 8)  8) .
     The hansome lad in the Bug is  Goddamitey Johnston leaving Scotland on his way to the U.S. He traded his RMS Titanic ticket for the woodbeetle. He had heard that the Titanic was powered by a Type-4 fuel infected engine :lol: The rest is History.

It looks like it needs some sprucing up but I still know a lot of people who wood still pine over it. Knot bad though!

I don't know . . . saying it needs sprucing up is kind'a going out on a limb don't you think?  But I hear that trying to push it through the water really saps the power out of the engine.  I bet it won't even bark the tires when he pulls onto dry ground.  The root of his power problem is that he takes it a shade tree mechanic.  OK, I'm board.  I'll leaf this on alone now.  I won't even comment about what he carries in the trunk.

Hmm.  Maybe the engine has a CHIP off the old block for not running right. I think the shade tree mech you speak of might be a PEAR of CHERRY females with nice looking CHESTNUTS from HICKORY N.C.  It might be a FIGment of my imagination,but I think their names were HOLLY Bush and NAN Dina. They are very POPULAR in that neck of the WOODS.  As far as whats in the trunk, I thought everyone knew that is where you keep the ships LOG along with a couple of PECAN's for any crew that might need to reLEAVE themselve on the long trip.
    I'm STUMPed now .Can't think anymore :lol:  :lol:

You're barking up the wrong tree if you think anyone is going to believe that story!  There isn't a grain of truth to it.  His mechanic is an Oakie.  I don't know his name, but everyone calls him Bud.  I hear he's nuts.  I once red Bud popped his cork when got his palm read and found out his family tree didn't have many branches.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

You are leaning way to far to the right.  You must belong to the "John Birch society"
