    My family is fortunate to have vacations in Bar Harbor. I'll sit at an outdoor restaurant eating a lobster roll and just watch neat old cars pass by or park near the waterfront park. I don't know why, but Maine is abundant with collectable cars and wonderful auto museums. A great video. Thanks!

    That Rolls Royce was built in my home town. The original L-series engine you have there comes from the first V8 Rolls Royce used on models from 1959 and later evolved into a twin turbo that put out almost 800 ft lbs of torque fitted in the Mulsanne from 2010. They are a solid V8....from England 🤙

    I sold a 1957 VW bus to a young man from England who was a student at McPherson college. He drove it back there from here in Idaho over ten years ago. Great guy, bummed to have lost track of him.

      Sadly the bus sunk about 3/4 of the way across the Atlantic. Apparently the rubber grommet for the clutch pedal failed.

      @@victorbitter583 HAHA I probably should have clarified that he drove it to Kansas. But I have had water soak my feet when driving through 18 inches of water in my bus. No seals, no pedal pan. That bus would have sunk instantly.

    It is good to hear that Harley Davidson stand by their product by keeping parts for a 90 year old motorcycle, sounds like good back up until you realise that today you're lucky to get parts for a 10 year old Harley Davidson, it is worse getting parts for discontinued models.

    LS swap sounds funny!👍🏻🤣
    If he needs any parts use Flying Spares in the U.K. to not get ripped off as they ship worldwide!
    I used to sell them stuff cheaper than retail as good customer when working at a main dealer Bentley/Old model Rollers just up the road from them and sometimes got NLA parts or used parts for customers if back ordered etc and they needed it done fast!
    (Obvs customer was told and invoice was stated no warranty on used parts, but recycled parts are sometimes the best way!)
    Hope that may help him do a funny LS swap with exhaust valances cut outs for funny straight out pipes!🤷‍♂️🤣

      Grey Poupon is a French Dijon mustard that had a commercial on television in the 80's with rich looking people in expensive cars stopped at a stoplight. One is eating something, and rolls down the window and says "Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?". The other guy in the car next to him says "But of course..."
