'31 Mail truck
For the first time in 35 years the mail truck runs again. I had gone through the engine back in '09, wish I had some pics of the crap in the oil pan, sludge, bugs rocks and sticks. Hadn't had an opportunity to start it until about a week ago, with a little tinkering it fired right up. Short video.

Re: '31 Mail truck
