Lots and lots of fluids. Have you ever seen so many solvents, lubricants, and more in a man cave garage! If you need something like this while working on your vehicle, you’ll probably find it here. The engine is an antique in-line six-cylinder. Sunshine and 88 lovely degrees are on tap for the valley today, perfect!
Wow that is so much stuff for the vehicle..is that yours?
Hi Anita, this well-stocked garage is a part of my dad’s man cave! It’s too cluttered for my very much Minimalist ways but he has everything you could need.
Lol!
WOW – that is a SUPER ORGANIZED garage space! Is it heated so that the chemicals don’t freeze?
There are no heat sources in this garage, the smaller one next to it does have an LP furnace fed by a 500 gallon pig out back. As far as I know, nothing has frozen in this garage which seems odd!
Wow – impressive!
Looks like a pot of soup on top of the engine there. Is that the air filter thing? If it’s a pot of soup, the car will get lots of fluids.
That’s the air filter inside the black box. Soup would probably be bad for the engine! 😂
Oil soup?
Not oil soup, but there is no oil in the air filter.
I know, but with that pot right there, you could certainly make some and give the car some food and drink – the kind a car would like.
A shot of lightning, also known as Ether and Starting Fluid. Yummy for any engine! 😂
Sounds delish!
Too oily, bad for cholesterol…
You could easily work on that old straight six yourself. These days you can’t even tell what the engine components are! 😉
It’s amazing how empty the compartment is! the engine and vehicle are from the 1950s.
I like that they had the firing order cast into the manifold. I remember that.
Yes, I noticed some numbers on the block, not sure if it is the firing order but that’s a great way to keep that with the engine. I love how simple the engine looks in there.
If you blow up the image, you can clearly see part of the word “order” before the string of numbers. I clearly remember seeing cylinder firing order identification on more than one engine manifold. Amazing how a simple piece of information added to the simplicity of one’s ability to work on their own car.
Yes indeed! I’ve heard so many backfiring cars over the years, and have seen 2-cycle engines with holes blown right through the crown of the piston. Ouch!
