[f-AA] **Merlin running in garage**

[Kyle]

Looks like a cart, to me. As for the value, I wonder also. I saw no cooling system at all. Hate to think how hot those cylinder walls got, in those few seconds. Not to mention running it no-load like that. Maybe we could go in on a half-truck worth of Keystone Light (in the specially lined can) and offer him a trade? I promise I'd rig up a radiator, before I did the same thing...Kyle

  Was that a cart the engine was mounted on, or some kind of home brew vehicle? do you suppose he knows what that engine is worth?

    This is my kind of guy. You just know there had to be a 6-pack involved here. He may be short one airframe, a prop, and a set of exhaust stacks, but that's no reason no to crank up the trusty ol' Merlin in the garage. I bet his neighbors love him. Kyle
