Funniest thing ever.

So we decide to try and fire it up.

Shonk the wiring up.Tip some fuel down the carby. Hit the key.

It fires straight up.

Of course, there are no exhaust manifolds on it, its running straight out of the cylinder heads.

All that fuel that Mick poured down the carby to pool on the back of the exhaust valves ignited and blew out of the head alight all over Mick and the car.

Micks all yelling..."I'm on fire!" ....I'm looking for a camera....

Mick eventually went out so no harm done.


Funniest thing ever.... :evilll:

A bit of a jigsaw puzzle, but I reckon he'll have it together pretty quick as most of it seems to be there..

I once helped the old man fire up a Mini straight out the head... with similar results, except we set the engine bay (and shed) alight.

Number 1 Son tried to convince me to run the Chev on the engine stand the same way... he wonders why I am a bit hesitant.

Cheers,
Harv
