Dang that V12 runs smooth...I think I'd chain down that trailer to something solid like the big tree---I wouldn't trust just those wheel chocks!

The trailer seems to have some sort of lowered anchor into the ground at the back, under the prop.  Still, I doubt it ever has the props trimmed for full attack.

I rebuilt a few of those and it's bigger brother the Griffon beautiful engines along with the Allison's

it has always surprising the quality of the machine work in them at a time when engine output was king.
