We aren't cut out to be socialists.We are the people who couldn't be constrained by Europe. We are the malcontents, idealists, speculators, dreamers, inventors, debtors and criminals who would not be chained. We don't play well with others, we are brash, outlandish and cunning. let us do what we do best; let us be Americans. |

UmHmm...can someone tell me why white tractor wheels are on it instead of chrome wires no...no I'm not going for that Amish excuse, tractor wheels were all the could afford to finish that thing off. The factory sheet metal is thick enough to stop a bullet and the double overhead cam six is heavy enough to BE a tractor engine, with only momentary jumps to 7000 rpm allowed. The V12 is better, but the manual transmission for the 12 was awful and very clunky. We aren't cut out to be socialists.We are the people who couldn't be constrained by Europe.

(silver spray paint) Quoting: swamprat No...no that would have given them selves away ya with me? Those wheels are fake. You can see the lug nuts. The real deal attaches by the spinners themselves.
