Spare motor?

[jmbrodsky@domain.elided]

     Tom, 
     
        You forget, but on my return home from Colorado (first place, yeah 
     I remember that part), I bought an entire Travelall WITH 392 for $400. 
      lest you forget, as I sat on the side of the road, I was unhindered 
     in my thoughts of an engine swap.  Also, I have a guy here in Tucson, 
     that will rebuild engines super cheap.  No they're inexpensive because 
     he can do them quickly.  He used to build my Uncles' race engine for 
     his Nova.  I likes doing the job, I guess he doesn't have to report to 
     anyone.
     
        Back on topic, I have a spare engine and doors, and windows, and 
     tires/wheels/axle (D60 rear) etc. waiting at home in the parts yard.  
     Over the break I'll get the 74 going, that way I will have three IHs 
     to choose from the fleet.  The people at the apartments are going to 
     love me.  I could fill the entire parking lot with the trucks and 
     trailers, and motorcycles.
     
        196 powered Travelall.  Yeah, you can drive it.

Joel,

If you want, I have a 196 I could loan you.. it'd take up half the space
of a 392, so you might still be able to carry other stuff in your
Travelall in addition to the spare motor... y'know, just in case.
