The really "Classic as it gets" part - Steam!
And a vid that lays out the basics of Titanic's engines.
And let's not forget Mr. Scott's new daily driver to work.

Who says small can't be cool? Those are neat, there's a micro V8 that you can buy online, about the size of a shoe box... unfortunately they want nearly $2k USD for it...

Wanna hear some cool sounds? Check these out!
For the Corsair you can skip ahead to the 8:20 mark for the actual startup, all before is things such as checking it over and so on but still interesting to watch, esp not long before the start when lightning is closeby.....
Nothing sounds like a radial starting up in the morning - Or at any other time! |

I love the Corsair. I watched the whole video. So interesting to see how she unfolds her wings. Beautiful plane.
Edit: Uh oh, lightning. The air is charged up. I worked at the airport fueling aircraft when I was a kid. I would have run up to her and put ground straps on her right away.

Found a few interesting vids concerning tractors.
I love it when folks find stuff and rescue it.
This lady knows her stuff..... The little lady does too!
And an old WWII 8 cylinder diesel on a Destroyer that hadn't been started for decades.

This made me laugh. That Chevy II was hauling ass!
Reminds me of my first car, it was a 67 Chevy II running a 327 with a Muncie 4 speed. Here's a pic of it taken with my little sister standing by it.

Pulled strong right to the end of the run - Nice.
And I hope no one is in the little purple shack when things go wrong during a burnout, I can hear it now:
"What runs here is soooooo fast even the outhouse can get in on the action".
Don't know about shut up and sit down but the "Hang On" part applies when the shit flies.....
