Hi guys,

While working at Lloyd Butfoy's shop yesterday, I saw something truly 
amazing.

Jerry at PI Motorsports had sent a gearbox to Lloyd for him to rebuild; the 
history of that gearbox is unknown, but clearly somebody had been in there 
prior to it falling in Jerry's hands.   At great effort, the stock ring gear 
bolts had been drilled for safety wire.   So far so good.   However, the 
person doing the work was clearly unclear on the safety-wire concept!
