one for the team

After that last blog post I realized it was time to get my a$$ in gear.

Okay maybe my kids a$$es!

Jakob did such a slam dunk job on the 27,
this was a cake walk.

Jaxon whipped off the intake bolts,
and Jake found the lower tranny/engine bolts.

Finally it was time to pull the old flathead.

Jaxon realized it was a bit more work than the models.

Somehow we scooted the engine over to the 27 with the trusty A-frame.

It doesn't look like it in the picture,
but it was getting late,
for a school night anyway.

With the kids help,

Bummer to sacrifice the running capacity of the once trusty 40,
but when things settle down it will get all it deserves.

Thanks for the help,
my little Grease Monkeys!
