Thank you Wayne. But it needs a couple things you suggested and then i got work on the other 75% learning how to operate it. You make it look so easy. Also thanks for all your time at the event. I really appreciate it. All of you are just wonderful and helpful people. Hopefully I’ll be able to return effort.

Judging by these photos, it’s time to install aviagarizonts in wood-burning cars. Very cool maneuvers! :slight_smile:

Hi Randy,
It is good to hear from you, we had a great time just seeing everyone.
There were a few projects going on, Dan Moore finished a charcoal maker- sawdust stove, Randy from Missouri worked on running his truck to start up on wood for the first time , Jacob N. fired up his boat on charcoal gas it sounded really good. We gave quite a few rides, my old ford was running good, we took the supercharger off and just ran naturally aspirated, topping out at 65mph, not too bad and like always Wayne was giving a lot of rides, I won’t say how fast he could go :slightly_smiling_face: every one who rode with him was very impressed. Raul Ordonez from Belize came, he is looking to build a stationary unit for a shop that does fabricating, Of course, it was a pleasure to see Chris Saenz and Mary with the children and a lot more going on. Lord Bless and remember SWEM!
Ron and Ronda L

Thanks Kristijan, they claim it came from my chickens it doesn’t usually affect healthy people although there seems to be a trend of it doing that now
