Pighead retorts: I got that '74 head too, and the Pertronix, But I sure as heck don't have an electrical choke...that's just technology run amok. I do have a kick-ass old-school Clifford valve cover though.
You secretly hate me because of the Rubicon? Did I run over your puppy dog or something?

Hey! they have translators over on the island? Will wonders ever cease. The Troll is on board, No surprise, those Southern gentlemen are refined. There must be a universal translator somewhere, maybe similiar to the one you find in a haynes manual, American to English, something like that.

OK, like i said before, Liar, liar, liar! What is that! On the firewall there. looks like some kinda fancy box with wires going to it and FLASHING lights, gizmo for sure! And over there. to the left, not one but two! Two, new wave, eXtreme, HIGH tech, mega bigabyte, new age batteries, hrrrrRumph! grumble, mumble.
Look, the Rubicon thing, it is like this. The other day, ran into the third or fourth guy, who said "been there", "yep, even better than you heard", "all you have to do to get there is go to Sacremento and take a left." puppy in indeed! just because you can open your window to throw out your dinner bones and a jeep on the Rubi gets all hung up on said bones, don't go thinking nobody is going to resent that and you can go dropping names as in, "hey buddy, need that fan before the Rubithon". Jeez....have some feelings!
Pighead has the fan in question. We chatted about manifold cooking over barley pops on the porch.
And how a catalytic converter might be modified into a fine broiler...
Just another day in Sacamenna...

What? You don't know what that is? Why it's only the newest thing to hit the market in the past 15 year. It's the electronic, solenoid, pressure actuated beer dispenser controller. I thought everyone had one of these? This takes all the hard work out of pumping the keg, driving with your legs while filling a beer and going down the road. This pretty puppy is actuate by a the high beam low beer switch located on the floorboard on any pig made before 1975. It was made by Beer Nuts Beer & Ale ( Butternuts Beer & Ale click the barn doors) specifically for Porkslap Pale Ale. If you are a pig owner and have yet to taste the fine ale you are missing what being a 55 owner is all about. Why just fill a nice Iron Pig pint glass up with this nectar hold it out the window to allow for head removal (caution: must be done at Toyota's published cruising speed of 80 mph for a pig) and drink.

For us in the south I made it a little easier for you to read.

Ok, the phonograph, thats acceptable. Though not original. Chrysler actually put a phonograph in, late 50s, the New Yorker. But all this other stuff, the in dash beer dispenser, new wave batteries, the pointless ignition (what's the point?). You are going to have to rationalize. here do it like this, sure like my petronix, never a problem, completeley care free. Don't know why but....I miss my points. i look forlornly at them when I rummage through the 55 detrious. Only real argument against the petro, it is alot cheaper to carry extra points than an extra petro unit. Ok, your stuff, the plastic fan, Could shatter when it comes in contact with the radiator. The fully sealed bats don't recover as well as the old lead acids. The in dash beer dispenser! Could short, taking everything with it, could fail, spewing the contents into the cab, tragedy! And just think (truly offensive to me), you lost an excuse to use a hammer to drive out the bung on the old style beer keg. Sad!

"Before I head up to the Rubicon. In a week." yep ther ya go your Honor, proof, Pighead is not fit for our modern society
masochist! now you are just being cruel!

What the hell am I seeing? Silicone plug wires, Chevy red paint? Where the hell am I?
And what's up the the shriveled up pot leaf tattoo on your hand? Is that some sort of gang sign.
I hope to god that's not fuel line being used for a vaccum line? You do realize that by capping the PCV valve you will blow that non OEM oil filter clean out the top of the hood and into space. Does NASA know about this? You have clearance?
Damn I need some porkslap.
