I'll have 2 helpings of the main course, fannie............ you are more than welcome to my slice of Seaweed pie and you can even have a scoop of "kelp coco" ice cream!

 

That's twice that specific macro has popped up in as many days. The original photograph was taken back in the Seventies for a Jeep ad. The location is familiar to me, as my fifth-grade classmates and I walked it when we were at a place called Camp Silverton, in the Cascade foothills ENE of Everett, where I currently live. The 'shelf' was the right-of-way for the Everett and Monte Cristo Railway, which went between East Everett and a long-disappeared town, Monte Cristo. This railway was built in the Nineteen Teens, completely removed by the mid-1940s, and now just a faded memory and a history book on the railroad.

 

Fanny,
Poutine is a Quebec dish. Surely you meant to say Poutine rapee which is Acadian in origin and usually reserved for special occasions. I love potato dumplings stuffed with pork.

Ce n'est pas?
Le vieux Renard

 

OMG that looks SOOOO bad.

 

I've never had rappie pie but I have heard of.




I REALLY like poutine.




mmmmm

 

When was the last time you saw any auto get an inframe job? That's now pretty much restricted to diesel long-haul tractors. And the chain fall is the reason why the bay lift and the center-post lift were originally invented. Too many mechanics getting squashed because the ceiling beam wouldn't support a car's weight.

 

1965 My uncle and myself installed rings and bearings, had the pistons knurled and the valves ground, and installed a new timing chain and a Melling 3/4 race cam in my 57 Ford 312. We did it laying on our backs under the car.

Pits were far more common than using chainfalls. I don't know what that guy is doing under there, as most of those cars had poured babbit bearings, not inserts.

 

I can hear the mechanic saying "She'll hold" what could possibly go wrong?
The guy sitting in the other car watching is priceless.

 

He's anticipating.

I'm sure the inframe didn't have anything to do with the bearings, just a quick sweep with the cylinder hone, new rings and polisn the crank. I came close to doing one myself, my first and last, if the customer had given the green light, on a '55 Tin Indian, um, 287, IIRC. But he only gave the okay for a check of the bearings and replace the front and rear main seals and pop in a new oil pump.

 

This is the one I want!
