Can't get out of it that easily Tommy. We're intrigued.

Blocks on Fire??? Blacks on Fire? Bollocks on Fire?

I've never replied to a deleted thread before. Is this then a non-reply? Or is it a reply about a non-subject? Is it a thread about nothing? A Seinfeld thread?

Was it going to be a story about a block of land caught up in a bushfire? Or perhaps a story about a motor that like 750 HP's newly rebuilt 460 went through a disastrous shed fire, also the result of a bushfire, and was left with its alloy inlet manifold melted and running down the sides of the block? (The cooled alloy blob that was once a manifold is now hanging on his lounge room wall!)

Or do I just have an overwrought imagination and too much time on my hands?

Definitely too much time on your hands, but this 460 block definitely felt the effects of the fire. So did the 55 Chev and the full chassis LH Torana in the background. Ah, fun times.
