PS
everyone check those extinguishers....1 of the 3 i had in my garage was dead.... and it took everybit of the 2 that worked
Just to set things "Straight", because, I am in the midwest, and not going to "Change teams" :o it must have a different meaning than in the "Wild, Wild West" :
I am still looking for a Mopar intake for my chevy, thats about as close as I will get to playing Kaw Kaw. (noise a mopar starter makes, when the car does not start)
