A good boxing day...
Notwithstanding the unexpected engine issue it was, as Rob wrote, a fine day.
You have to step back for a few seconds and see Grant working on repairing one of his engine covers, Rob hammering on his fenders and myself fiddling with the windshield of my truck..... the three of us each busy in their own little world.... except for the odd query...... can you guys look at this and tell me if this is right?? Moments like this makes it worth living. To CMP friends

Never seen that
Hi Bob
Never seen that happen, seen them bend, or slip off the rocker arm because the nut on the adjuster got loose and the adjuster backed off. All of these made some noise but not as much as I would have expected. You were sure lucky that all bits were easy to recover. Reread the message and saw that it was an intake, wonder if you loose more power to a closed intake or a closed exhaust? Would have been an interesting thing to have fail on the road while driving to instantaneous go from 6 cylinders to 5 under load. Cheers Phil

Retirement at the Barn
I completed a quick trip to the barn this morning to retire, so to speak. After sparking up Lucifer (if only to keep the old fella comfortable when he arrived), I mounted some new tires on my refurbished M37 rims. Everything went together like a charm - no exploding split rings or wrestling with tight fitting tires. These tires mounted up just as easily as my HUP tires.
Grant and Bob were still fiddling about in the barn when I left, but I am sure that Bob is cleaning up for his "date" about now (3:00PM local). As Bob mentioned above, we enjoy the barn and its atmosphere. Photo: New tires on M37 rims.

Rims
Golly Rob, those are really nice looking rims! Did you ever find any good replacement M37 fenders or are you tin bashing the originals?

And What a Year it Was!
There were so many good times at the Hammond Barn in 2014, and we expect more of the same in the New Year. Here are some videos of one of the highlights of the year past. Thanks to Barry Churcher for the video and the opportunity! See y'all in 2015!
