Default Open Engine

Hi All ~ I'm new to this site...looks like a lot of good information! I just completed a project for our local MAFCA reunion, and it was a big hit. One of the other MAFCA members suggested that I post it on this site. Enjoy!

Well, I was looking for a nice project now that I am retired and I had been wondering what to do with that old engine and stuff in the back corner of the garage.....

That has got to be the coolest thing I have ever seen done with junk. I work for a university that has junk art all the time. This is waaaay better. Thanks for sharing.

I was at the Wisconsin Model "A" Reunion at Wisconsin Rapids and saw this engine running. The video is great but being able to see it in person and talk to the owner/builder was very interesting. He is a very personable young man and very passionate about this project. It would be neat to see it at the MAFCA National in Upper Michigan (the UP) in 2012. Thanks for sharing. Don/WI
