Hmm, Let's see...
Spark plug, 12 volts, coil, injector, fuel pump, jerry can in a backpack,
spare bit of exhaust pipe, bit of petrol... Oh no.. It's a Datsun Flame
Thrower!! :)
Road rage will soon be a thing of the past!! :)
Now how many people here have most / if not all of these parts lying around
in their garage.. :)
I wonder if I hook up a fuel injector and spark plug to the tailpipe of my
TRX, that'll look great at the summernats burnout comp.. :)
Anyone for some chlorine in their brake booster???
How about a book called "1001 things to make out of the spare car parts in
your garage, by Trevor Pooley. Co-written by Errol Smith."
Enough enough.... I crack me up...
