Dieseltech, do you have any proof that LaGrange is the armpit of the world? :lol:

I ask because I was driving through Nevada a while back and saw a billboard proclaiming Battle Mountain as the "Armpit of America". No kidding! A little research found this Washington Post article maligning BM (nice pun, eh? ;)) with that title.

So, just how bad is LaGrange...? :wink:

Car is in fair shape with a few dents and dings, no major damage. Going to try to take some more pics today.

Have you had the head off or anything to determine the extent of the damage from the TB Tension breaking? Are all the pistons toast?

I am interested in your dead engine if you are looking to part with it.

If you want to contact me outside the forum, my e-mail is [email protected] and just give it a noticable subject line so I don't think it's spam.

Thanks a huge bunch!!!!

the only proof i have is i live here, and it sux big time. town said i can't have a hobby of collecting rare automobiles. I guess other people think of them as junk, I think of them as "neat"   thats all
