So you have badly worn bearings? After you installed the pressure gauge did you have any more instances of the thing cutting off?

No more instances of low oil pressure since I installed the pressure gauge but I also bumped up the idle. At idle, I’m now at about 18 psi. At 1500 rpm and 60 mph, I’m at 30 psi. I’m not sure when I will install the engine. I’m thinking I will wait till cooler weather, but I’m also thinking of driving it until something happens. That said, there’s $1000 core charge and if I drive it until the engine blows up, I don’t want to risk losing that $1000. Last edited by A930Rocket; 08-16-2025 at 04:21 AM.. |

Built on a modified Volkswagen chassis, it was designed to resemble an alligator. The supercharged V8 engine is a prop because the car was powered by a Chevrolet Corvair flat six engine.

Perfect closet for hanging a coat and storing an ironing board, but not much else, maybe some TV trays.
