The second question after use your knife so I put your find yourself cutting up stuff that might not be suitable to eat how would you sterilize that night in the field so you can use it to cut up your food and maybe to eat with like raw food.

      He explained in the full episode on MTOD that it belonged to a guy who ran a drag strip down in Georgia. He ran it until the early 2000’s when he died. His widow parked it in that barn right off the drag strip. There is a whole bunch of cars right around there. You can see part of their searching on Finnegan’s UA-cam channel and this car has since blown up this motor, and now has a blown big block Chevy
