yes you are nuts, but that is plus in my book. Sane people don't have much fun. I took my 53 from sandiego to kalispell montana with the complete driveline (350 V8, auto transmission, and rearend )out of an impala of some vintage (my dad wanted an engine to build for his pickup) And pretty much all my belongings I could cram in there. It looked an awful lot like the Clampetts (how do you spell that?) It weighed 5700 pounds with a nearly empty gas tank and my wife not in it. (the guy at the scales said, "You're loaded!") didn't miss a beat. Although the clutch smoked for a while when trying to take off on a couple of those hills. Then about ten years later I took it from there to Seattle where it presently resides. Maybe not nuts, "ADVENTUROUS" might be a better term. It doesn't carry all the stigma of insanity, but has all the fun.
