He got rid of it because he was sick of driving a beautiful Machine with a god damn tractor motor in it.

Second gen with carbed 305 sbc and t5. I have a strange vibration that's driving me crazy and I can't figure it out yet, but as soon as I fix that I'll be on the road with it.

That strange vibration is the reciprocating motion of the pistons. Its OK, you'll get used to it.
