This just in -

In an almost-comical scenario of the lawnmower fuel tank suspended from the hood latch and the fuel return running into a gas can on the floor, the 280S rumbled to life with a couple pumps on the gas and 5 seconds of cranking. Would not idle, since the chokes won't close and could not run it long since the exhaust is pointed into the garage, but it sounded solid with lots of oil pressure.


More as it happens ...

"Mc Giver" and "Junkyard Wars" can't hold a candle to you! :)
