Looks fabulous ! It has taken a long time for the Brockway lovers to finally take the ball to the top with the 12V71 being the goal.

TC12, I need to know more about that fork lift you're lifting the engine with!!! Surely that V12 weighs more than my 572 gas engine and I've been looking to rent something that would work for installing the engine and tranny back into my chassis. Can you email me at EPJDDS@AOL.com and tell me what it is and its capacities??

Emery

Looking excellent Earl! I'm with Jeff Erb, hook that baby up to a lowboy and move that euclid. How about some pics of that?..........Brian

p.s. if it helps to speed things up just feel free to rob parts off the silver v-12
