At least you won't need to adjust the valves or do a carb synchronization, but watch out for the 'exhaust' that end just might get you !!!!!!!!!!!

Believe it or not Casper and his stable mates are all rescue horses with various problems but mostly in need of some tlc Jane(Chloe,s Aunt) does a great job with them, its unbelievable what some people do to these animals especially when you consider what some of them are worth when there sorted out.
Jane's in the first picture, the second one is "Beauty" a cracking horse. The third one shows Casper on the mend after his previous owner almost beat him to death he was recovered by the RSPCA.
They are high maintenance to start with but once they settle in you get great satisfaction seeing them recover and they are real characters just like our r65,s.

Since this economic downturn, there's been numerous reports of severely neglected horses in the Phoenix metro area, unfortunately, most of these animals are 'put down' due to the severity of their conditions .
On a lighter note, that last picture of yours, reminds me of a majority of my relatives !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good on ya, Lou and family.
The local constabulary here in Denton County (TX) just rescued a good-sized herd of registered quarter horses that were supposedly being boarded and cared for at a ranch just north of my home.
Ranch manager abandoned the stock and property. Horses rescued. Manager jailed.
Unfortunately, the down economy has created issues that often escape discovery until it's too late... for the animals or even young children.
Still looking for my rope. >:(

Montmil,
Forget the rope, double-shot your cannon! Or, I can send you a blowgun!

There are a few things that enrage and animal cruelty is one of them. Blow gun sounds too quick!
