Shag's old motor donated

[cmayna]

This past Friday, Mr. Truck and I brought Shag's old motor to the local high school auto shop for a donation. The gear head teacher was so excited about this motor for he had some immediate plans for it. Yes I could have sold the motor along with it's J code smog tube heads but he wanted it as intact as possible. I'll get a tax write off so I'm more than happy. I brought before and after pics of Shag to show the kids what can be done and now I received an email this am from the teacher asking me to bring the Mustang over during class this week for a quick looky loo.

I must say how extremely impressed I am with the class layout, cleanliness and what seemed to be a true interest from the kids. The teacher is a Mopar/Ford freak who's involved with the Bay Area Shelby club.

No, but I took a turn at Hall Monitor.
High School teachers were tyrants.
