[SEL] New Year engine run?

[Nelson Johnsrud]

How many of our "down under" friends are cranking up today?  It should be a simple matter down there -- they don't have to shovel the snow to get at the engine shed.

It's been awhile since I dragged out the Hercules.  I may have to do a brief roll out tomorrow.  I have done a New Year's engine run here most years with one of my more gamey (really) friends.

What is the coldest weather anyone has cranked up their old iron in?  A couple of years ago it was 4 deg. below zero (F) here.  Thats the one that sticks in my mind.  The Herc didn't start on the first flip of the wheels either.  And I didn't stay out long . . . .
