No, but the cows and horses in the pics do. 
Chris, does that car really need the tennis ball?

Nope, I used a rear suspension bump stop. 
I run a doghouse shroud, but still used the rain shield on the engine lid. After shut off, the engine would heat soak & boil the fuel out of the carb causing hard starts. By employing a variation of the “tennis ball trick”, the heat rises through the vents & draws fresh air from the bottom keeping the carb cool .

I'd suspect Chris would say his doggy's the GOAT, greatest of all time.

I don't know if a chainsaw carved this or not, but I thought it was cool from Dec., outside of Redding, CA.

The judges rule that the manner of carving was not material to the challenge, in the Cabal meeting last night.

That bear looks chainsaw cut to me. 6 Claws on the left paw and the chest hair grooves look mechanically cut too.
I somehow missed the Cabal meeting last might.

I dunno, the timeline kinda negates eligibility, lets see if anyone else can complete it.

At first I thought that I’ve stayed at a Thunderbird Inn but it was the Thunderbird Motel in Savannah Georgia.
Anyway, here is The Pine Crest Motor Lodge, a locally owned motel near me. Home to a couple of locals and a respite for many a transient worker.
Up next:
In semi-honor of my wayward daughter,
YVWNT your local city or county jail.
Bonus points if you’re in handcuffs.
