Today I met a guy with a Clark Backhoe. It was quite a machine...especially 
the fire shooting out of the bottom of the exhaust manifold! Apparently water 
got into the manifold at some point and rotted the bottom off. The owner has 
had no success in finding one locally so I offered to post it to the list and 
see what turns up.

Here's the details.
1965 Clark BL700
Continential F244 flat-head 6 engine
The manifold has the carb mounted on top. The muffler attaches to either end 
of the manifold and the unused end is capped. It appears to be a 2 piece unit 
but most likely is rusted together. The words "Red Seal" are cast into the 
side of the exhaust part of the manifold.

Anybody got a manifold they want to part with? Any Idea where he can find one?

Thanks!
Karl
