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.
We had just enough time to snuggle the engine into the roadster.
With the kids help,
a bunch more was accomplished than I thought.
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!
