FWIW, just one (1) comment:

"Anything" is possible with a repair by "anyone" ....... on "anything" ...... from repairing a kitchen china plate to a locomotive.

Would never be surprised if one had a severely old pitted crank gear & installed it on a Model A an engine during an engine rebuild.

Even saw a Model A engine where a guy tried to use the large top of fence wire to replace worn piston rings.

As seen often through so many humorous e-mails received today, they not only walk among us, they are allowed to vote & choose leaders who decide how to control our lives.
