The MADSTER get's a heart!! thanks to Cole and Mike Collins!

[Evel]

So I stopped at Coles to hang a pick up a Nailhead that he bought
from an auction Still wrapped in plastic..Cole bought it and put it aside
to run it later..But being the cool guy he is..he told me I could come buy
and get it...He also kicked me down with Heads (Off the Chevy Coupe)
and a Weiland 3/2 set up with GTO Rodchester carbs..SWEET!!!
so we start to rip apart the old buick motor that he had and as we unravel(Sp?) the nail head we realize that it's not a nailhead..it''s a Caddy motor or somthing??it even had the rebuilt tag saying Nailhead and another
tag that said nailhead...So Cole still kicked me down with the Heads (With adjustable Lifters) and manifold/ carbs and a mad Cam and Crank too..I'm still super stoked!!! but no Nailhead...I figured I can find somthin no problem....
