Happy Happy Happy!!!! It's a runna. I'll have to say that when it started and ran I haven't grinned like that in a long time. Tomorrow I'll get it on a proper base and a little polishing done and maybe we can get some " first born" pics. Thanks guys for the help and support

I like bagpipes.

I believe that this makes me truly unique.

No music, but, here's some pics.






You can title the video: Clean Renewable Fuel or Redneck Fueled


The sound you hear at the beginning and end is that Marlboro powered compressor; Me
I hope these come out ok. They may need resizing and I might need help with that.
Y'all's Redneck

That looks great Eric! I can't watch the video, as I have only crappy dialup, so I'll check that out at work tomorrow. Sweet looking engine - I am looking forward to seeing it run.

Not sure about the Tennessee whiskey there though. More of a single malt man myself. ;D
