MY GAWD I thought you had a picture of my dad for a second there!

Somewhere, Mom has a pic of pops running my uncles boat he built out at Gilford Lake in Ohio. Basically a 12' aluminum rowboat he put a twin cylinder Wisconsin engine in midship. THEN made a propshaft etc from an old V-Drive and set it up to steer like an airplane with a pedal on each side of the motor.

Was cool, I get it, but was a solution to a non-problem. My dad thought it was the coolest thing ever. So when I put a tunnel rammed 427 in my '73 Nova SS, imagine my surprise how pissed he was after taking it to work one day when his truck was dead.

I thought I was being nice letting him take it......................Never did THAT again.

I remember when I was a kid they used to have races at salton sea using regular household doors, it was some pretty funny chit
