My newest member of the family

Bought this in June of 2016..hole #8 no compression. Replaced that engine with another 460 I had in the shop. 101,000 miles all original. In the process of removing the Gem Top and giving it a good buff and wax. Only thing I need is a new woodgrain horn button with speed control as the PO has broken this one but it still works. Will post pics when it is all shiny and new looking in the next week or two!

Been a spell since I have had much to add to the discussion of our beloved Dents. Been stalled out with weather and engine building/parts searching so my poor old beast has been sidelined for a few looooooonnnggg months now, brother. Picked er up a friend for cheap, but the withdrawals are too hard...I need my dent back.

That's what you see when you look up "bad ***" in the dictionary! If you machine some little spacers for each bolt in order to get it to hang straight, (while adapting to the bolt angles) it would be even cooler.

Twin I-Beam nothing! It's the single I-beam you'd better watch out for - and I really mean that.

That's gotta be the coolest thing I've seen on the internet all day!
