Memories, that rail car bridge was fun. 71' long and 35' was hanging off back of lowboy. Good thing for cell phones, it took 8 of us on cell phones to look out for Roscoe P. Coltrane!
Weighs 33 tons and we got skid steer with 18" drill with 16' extensions. and 20' long by 4' deep header.
Scrambler- I worked 4 years evey night, at work finding/ordering parts and on weekends. There is not one bolt in rig that's not stainless. Most are ARP if any stress or show.
They're all ordered to leave 1/8" over after washer's & fastner.
Had a great time building (what a work stress reliever & TV is Lazy man's entertainment) and met wife in process, she helped and would cook for everyone and make sure we had a variety and plenty of BEER for everyone.
The Scrambler turned out way too nice, and beaters are definately more fun. I still use it as intended but nothing extreme. I ran 39.5 boggers and it did real well in the pits.
Takes better part of 2 days to clean, which I'm getting old and don't have energy for that.
Didn't have these awesome bulltear parts back then. I've installed junk yard timing covers with platique guage for last time. I'll also never sandblast and paint a pulley again.
I would like to see a serpentine belt system for the 401. I have a friend thats a machinist/enthusist and he works with Mori-Seki machining centers. He's a programmer and we spent alot of time desigining and measuring but toooo much brainpower for a one off system. We'd get deep into taking exact measurements and end up just getting drunk.
See my "Wanted" Thread and please ask any AMC guys that don't watch forum if they have nice parts to sell to good cause.
