A rusty wench can be easily fixed with a rough rub down using an oily rag coated in 3 in 1. Maybe a strip down once over with a stiff brush, you know, purely to avoid rusting....... sorry, lost myself there for a second. It's the fumes, stirs something warm in the fundament.....als.

Of course, a true gentleman politely offers to lubricate the rusty wench.

Clearly you're talking about a jammed piston. As with many engineering problems, that's a matter of the right type and amount of lubrication.

I'm sure I posted this in the first pinup thread, but I didn't want to be left out of the fun.  If I didn't, here it is again.  Now THAT is a pinup . . . beautiful steamy mademoiselle atop a chopped '63 jimmy ratrod! with what looks like a tow winch on back! Oh My! Where's my fan? Beautiful both!!! There, Sir Squire, is your fan, I believe

The ones with Trixy are promising to be better.... But we have to wait until it's a little warmer for Rachel and I to show off Trixy to the masses.

He could have thrown a rod, if so it could have sheered at the big end. If it sheered at the small end then he might have shattered his piston. I hope his cranks ok. We'll have to strip it down and take a look at all the bearings.

Couple of fun shots from a car show a few months back.... This was a tow truck/ ratrod, that had been chopped as far as possible... The thing only came up to my waist.... really, really awesome truck.... Didn't beat Trixy in the final contest, but it was damn close.... I would have to agree with the other responses, in regards to both the truck and yourself, although to be honest I didn't notice the truck at first  I'm sure I posted this in the first pinup thread, but I didn't want to be left out of the fun.  If I didn't, here it is again.  Stunning...

Okay, so I'm totally a vainglorious camera hog. XD Shot was taken for promotional uses at my friend's house.... But to show I'm not totally a diva, here too is the Mistress of the house, Velda Von Minx.
