Man, that thing ruled. [IMG]
That's my photo from 2014, just before the Nomad was fired up and test-driven to the gas station for a fill-up. Man, I miss the days of hanging...
Stunning photos, @Ryan. Nailed it.
Stellar weekend for sure, Boss!! The weather turned out to be perfect despite the sloppiness on Thursday. The quality of the cars was impressive...
Casny would be easy to hate if he weren't so damned likable. The dude is endlessly inspiring.
Great summary, @Ryan! This one was destined to be extra special specifically because of the two-year hiatus... or 'I-hate-us', if you bought into...
Great post, Ryan, and I agree... just like art is subjective, assessing someone's character is also subjective. One person's 'insufferable...
This changes everything. I'm hoping your incredible content gets me off my duff to create, also. Great stuff, my friend!

The news just broke... LSRU 2021 has been postponed to Sept 3-4... Labor Day weekend. See the details at https://lonestarroundup.com.
Bucket list for sure... one day.
An eloquent summation of a powerful concept, @Ryan... well done, and thanks for all the adventures. Pondering it now (looks at wrist watch)......
Gareth is awesome.
Hopefully everyone heard elsewhere, but the next LSRU will be in April, 2021. Be safe out there! https://lonestarroundup.com
Sorry/Thanks.

Nope. Edelbrock 2176 fits the LA motors, including 318.
Beautiful car!! From one '39 owner to another, slap a Columbia 2-speed under that thing and hit the highway!!
I put that same combo into this '66 Barracuda and it ran great. Motor was stock from salvage (Thanks, @FLAT-TOP BOB) with an Edelbrock intake and...
Also, if you need to chase town the location of the 'tick' noise, use 2-ft of fuel line... one end held up to your ear, then the open end gets...
Check oil weight... too heavy can cause a lifter tick. I ran into this in my 401 nailhead when I tried running 20w-50. Went back to 10w-30 and it...
I did a similar thing in high school, but filled the squirter bottle with Jack Daniels and ran the nozzle to a spot under the dash. Pull into the...
Great write-up, @J.Ukrop... not to mention them impressive quick-draw camera skills!!! ;)
Did the exact same thing one night in my old 4-seater sandrail on the beach in Galveston, TX! I'm standing on the rear cage operating the throttle...
In 2012, about halfway between Marfa and Presidio in the Texas Big Bend region, the alternator bracket on Kati's SBC in her '53 Merc shears a bolt...
If the problem you're solving is making one of these trucks comfortable for a 6'2" person, couldn't that be done with a smart seat design and...
I dunno, but it's their loss... they missed out on a fascinating story arc with a big payoff twist ending. Nope... dammit. Thanks, man. Thanks!!
Had some recent renewed interest in this old post, so thought I'd post a pic of the project as it stands today. Obviously, it's been slow going as...
Thank you, thank you!! That's a real pet peeve... folks seem to forget what a 'reversed' wheel really is.
