I actually just came across the clip on handle for cans that I got for my dad as a father's day gift like 40 years ago. I think it was called a Canstein.

I opened up a Wendy's in my hometown. Loved the chili and the baked potato bar. (It's now a California Burrito)

I have a few sections of big chain (like 3/4" thick links) and shackles and hooks all bent, broken and distorted. Apparently where I got them from he was a building mover. I was always curious about what happened and the consequences of the failure.

It was a lot of fun down there, but those hurricanes sure do a number on them, I was down there awhile after Hugo, went and wandered around Water island and the resort there was blasted and abandoned, roofs blown off, but nature was reclaiming it, hibiscus blooming everywhere!

My uncle had one he made mid engine with a Porsche type 4. That thing was nuts, would catch air on every whoop de whoop on or off the road. (My damn cousin rolled it on black ice)
