    Hey all. Tim from Virginia. I have been a mechanic for 20 years and have worked on everything from generators, lawn mowers, construction equipment (CAT rules!), to the 4 series of M1 Abrams tanks. I am currently a heavy mobile equipment mechanic (civilian) for the Dept of the Army at Fort Belvoir.
    I have recently bought a 1974 Comet for my step-daughter. It has a 4.1L straight six that I just rebuilt. I just dropped it back in this weekend and am in the process of hooking everything back up and creating a shopping list while I'm at it.
    Great to be among friends.
