new 52 is GAS HOGG
Permalink  

Well gang, I unloaded the 52 this morning, got 1/2 way off the trailer & the S O B ran out of gas on me, one trip on & off trailer!!!  Of course I have no idea how much the guy put in it, but , it wasn't enough at my end. Dumped the lawnmower gas [high test ] in, a few cranks, the 305 fired up, & [hope no cops on here ] took it for a "test drive" up the street & back, [just had to do it ] trans seemed to shift well, didn't get on it as only has front brakes, better than NONE. She's in the garage beside her relative, the 64 Catalina, nice & warm,  Pete
