Few pics from our recent trip to Lake Jocassee. Not sure what setting I hit to screw up the last couple.

Here's the story that goes with it:

Truck made it for one more tow to Lake Jocassee, and up the 3/4 mile 8% grade just before the turn. Something about that seemed to make the head gasket worse

Anyway, she made it home, but she burned 1.5 gallons of antifreeze doing 145 miles. Had to stop every hour to cool down and fill up the radiator
On the plus side, cylinders 3 and 5 are steam cleaned and sparkling. Crossed my mind that it might hydrolock

New engine should be delivered this week. Guy from church has his own small shop and is set to swap it for me for $800, so should be back in business end of next week.

She turned this palindromic number on the way home.
