Has to be one of the best road repairs of all time. Rod windowed block, license plate and JB Weld used to close block back up. Two pistons damaged, hose clamp and floor mat used to cover oil journals to keep pressure and drove 100 miles home on 4 of 6 cylinders.

Yes it is.

Mine had a tilt when I bought it, but I sold it off the truck.

Were the warheads armed with a nuclear payload, each would carry with it the explosive power of twenty-five Hiroshima-sized weapons which is equivalent to around 400 kilotons of TNT.





My grandfather was a seabee but he landed with the marines on Kwajalein (his second or third landing, not sure).
