These guys are awesome!!

We just got back from the four day Ontario Hotrod Tour. Every year there's a group of guys called the Twisted Crankshafts that go on the tour and these guys carry every tube, squirt can, spray can, etc imaginable that has anything to do with cars. They also carry every tool and device you might ever need from a flat screwdriver to a welder. They love nothing better than to get you going again if you're having trouble. I wouldn't be surprised if they could rebuild an engine on the side of the road.
Well, we're cruising along a country road in the middle of nowhere and somebody blew a rad hose. One of the TCs cut a piece of tube out his roll cage to use as a splice to get this car going again. That's just the kind of guys they are. You don't get better than that!

Murray's right! Grand bunch of gearheads and they tried to fix my tailpipe hanger too, but the guy at the shop that put the tips on, used a metric stud/nut combo that defeated all our attempts to repair. In the finest mechanical tradition, they mechanic wired it together and I'll take it back to metricland and get him to repair it. Thanks for the effort lads!!
