The customer was on HWY 280 between San Francisco and Palo Alto and moving along at quite a clip. Apparently someone did a sudden lane change right in front of him. He jerked the car aside to avoid hitting the other car. I guess it got sideways then hooked up and rolled.
He is looking for another car to put the engine and transmission into. It has an Andial 3.8 liter twin plug motor in it. It goes like stink! I think we will be parting out what ever is not used on the next car. My Sawzall is going to be getting a work out for sure.

Giant tsunami-shaped clouds
A series of huge breaking wave shaped clouds lined the horizon in Birmingham, Ala., on Dec. 16.
Giant Tsunami-Shaped Clouds Roll Across Alabama Sky - Yahoo! News
Quote:
Experts say the clouds were pristine examples of "Kelvin-Helmholtz waves." Whether seen in the sky or in the ocean, this type of turbulence always forms when a fast-moving layer of fluid slides on top of a slower, thicker layer, dragging its surface.
