Alpha Romeo Canguro. I still think this is one of the most lovely cars out of Italy. More pictures here at the 2005 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance (Best in Show!) Personal site - Alfa Romeo Canguro

That would also make a great combination F.O.D vacuum - snow blower on track days!

Jac Mac- What were the limiting factors on the 289 MK I's? I seem to remember something about the front main being the weak link above 7,000 because of a harmonic in the crankshaft.

I thought Farsi was Iranian...

Thank you, gentlemen. I like simple! John

I had planned to use a simple T connection between two tanks feeding a SW 240a fuel pump supplying the quad Weber induction on a 289 engine. Do the fuel bowls on the Webers hold enough fuel to eliminate the need for a surge tank? If not, should the main tanks feed the surge tank individuall...

Or apathy.

"Now it is not good for the Christian's health To hustle the Aryan brown, For the Christian riles and the Aryan smiles, And it weareth the Christian down. And the end of the fight Is a tombstone white With the name of the late deceased And the epitaph drear: "A fool lies here who tried to hustle...

Jim- I agree that projection of power is one of the purposes of any military. But projection is a catch-all word, and was more meaningful in the 19th century when gunboat diplomacy worked. Proportional Response is another one of those terms thrown about, but WW I began with a limited response...

The point is well taken. Actually, in gaddafi's case, he was sleeping in a tent on the grounds when the strike began, and afterwards we sent him the Maverick "gun camera" footage of one homing in on his tent and then pulled off to hit a few hundred yards away. Cross hairs on your forehead...

What is the proper (or best) mounting point for the shoulder harness straps? Should it be the same height of the driver's shoulders, above, or below, and should it be attached to a separate horizontal bar running parallel to the one above the driver's head--given a basic cube shaped type roll...

Unfortunately, the world has an unlimited supply of 18 year old young men who take their elders word for what is worth dying for. Think how many soldiers last words were "Please, God...", and most to the same God. We have a moral compass that we ignore when we think we're making the world safe...

Not being a doctor, I try to avoid poking around other men's genitalia myself, but Google probably knows if you check. Be careful how you word your search though or you'll need brain bleach to wipe the images from your memory! :thumbsup:Fletch

Just not funny if you have to explain. It's how they do a hernia exam over here. They push a finger up into your scrotum, you turn your head so you don't puke on them and then cough so they can feel a hernia. What the video shows above is a prostate exam, not the same thing, or nearly as much...

Speaking of which, are you able to turn your head and cough yet?

I assumed the polling thread on Syria was a just that w/o much in the way of comments. After scanning through the posts, I see I missed that one big time. But, happily, we have a much firmer grasp now on how the ancient Egyptians came to worship insects. <sarc./> <off>

That's well thought out, Jim, and I couldn't possibly care less who hates or laughs at us in that region either. The Christian Science Monitor (and isn't that an irony worthy of the ages) reports the Turks are trying to allow some "humanitarian" aid into Syria, but like the French smuggling...

It is indeed, but is there always a right vs wrong? I know, metaphysics and politics don't mix ;), but I'm reminded of the sarcastic quip a politician, probably English, once made: "We must do something, and this is something, so we must do it!" My own thought is that the time when any single...

Terry- It's a long shot but this place has several uprights from various historic cars as well as all sorts of stuff you didn't know you wanted, but do now! historicracing.org.uk Don't miss the "clearance page as well. John
