Wow,all the money they spent on that failure.

We have a Tressel like this and nothing can be done to fix it because of the massive amounts of concrete that was used in it's construction in 1930 and lack of drainage.
Well not only that but the railroad just flips the bird at the road jurisdictions and say build around us we have more swing than you.

for a second there I thought it was my 10mm socket
Actually a late-68. 67s had no quarter panel side markers. Early 68 side markers were rectangular. Late 68 were ovals, as in this car's.

I'm just looking at the wheels as being 67 Shelby factory KH wheels, still a shame. I bet the owner tells everyone, "It's not for sale, I'm going to "restore" it some day . . . "

Yeah, back then everyone was putting anything but stock on the 68s. My 68 GT350 vert had a 65 289 with hipo heads and a small-letter S1MS intake and a LeMans bowl 735cfm Holley. Thing only made decent power after 4000.

In Cleveland about 5 years ago they built bridges over all the tracks, pork money.
Then the closed off neighborhood's where they had to drive miles out of their way.
You're not going to surprise me on waste.
I made a lot of money from waste- it was everywhere government, oil & gas, steel mills,railroads, utilities etc.
 
Remembering The Old West

William Jesse McDonald was born in Kemper County, Mississippi, September 28, 1852. After the Civil War, Bill, his mother and other relatives moved to Texas, settling on a farm near Henderson in Rusk County. Graduating from Soule's Commercial College in New Orleans in 1872, he taught penmanship in Henderson until starting a small store at Brown's Bluff. He later established a grocery at Mineola.
While attempting to succeed as a businessman, McDonald supplemented his living by working as a peace officer. In the 1880s he served as a deputy sheriff in Wood County. After moving to Hardeman County, he served as deputy sheriff, special Ranger, and U. S. Deputy Marshal of the Northern District of Texas and the Southern District of Kansas.
In 1891 McDonald was selected to replace S. A. McMurry as Captain of Company B, Frontier Battalion. He served as a Ranger captain until 1907. Capt. McDonald and his company took part in a number of celebrated cases including the Fitzsimmons-Maher prize fight, the Wichita Falls bank robbery, the Reese-Townsend feud, and the Brownsville Raid of 1906. His handling of the troops of the 25th U.S. Infantry during this last incident made him known as "a man who would charge hell with a bucket of water." He had a reputation as a gunman that rested upon his his marksmanship, and his ability to use his weapons to intimidate his opponents.
McDonald is known as one of the "Four Great Captains." The others being John H. Rogers, John R. Hughes and John A. Brooks.
In 1905, McDonald served as bodyguard to President Theodore Roosevelt. In 1907, Governor Campbell made him a state revenue agent. He again fulfilled the role of bodyguard in 1912 for a visit by Woodrow Wilson. Later Wilson appointed him U. S. Marshal for the Northern District of Texas.
Bill McDonald died of pneumonia on January 15, 1918 at Wichita Falls. He is buried at Quanah. On his tombstone is carved the following motto: "No man in the wrong can stand up against a fellow that's in the right and keeps on a-comin'."

To put that thing into perspective... here's the size of the magazines, it has a crank, like a crossbow just to run the bolt!

Sets off car alarms.

Another good one of the same type is the Solothurn.
