HeavyGunner Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 That's awesome. My Lincoln only has a 4 banger gas job in it. Very nice restoration job.

BillyT Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Just the thing to hang quarter panels! You'd have to use a #20 lens with that!😁 My Lincoln had a continental 4 banger, My Hobart had a 2 banger Wisconson.
