Ardrossan, Ab: CWM's faithful Ford F250 came to the rescue again yesterday, helping with disaster relief efforts after a tree was blown across the driveway, injuring another tree and bruising several hundred apples in the seasons worst non-terrorist-related temporary road closure.The President took a second to relate how, after he replaced the battery and fuel pump, fixed the rotten fuel line, bled the clutch cylinder, pumped up 3 flat tires, rebuilt the carb (again) and replaced the points, cap, plugs and wires, the mighty 223 roared to life and ran beautifully for several seconds before the little pin thingy keeping the shifter pointed straight broke off and halted cleanup efforts well into the late afternoon. 
Once mechanical harmony had been restored to the shifter, operation Get this Shit off my Driveway proceeded without further incident. The F250 is taking a well deserved breather after its workout, resting peacefully in the center of the driveway, just where it broke down as soon as the tree was out of the way.
That Ford looks tough. No more poufta French pastry chef sub 1 litre engine category cars.
ReplyDeleteIf by "tough" you mean "beat up and rusty" then it is indeed very tough. The President suggests that any French-car-bashing smacks of sedition and such treachery will be remembered on race day...
