I probably predate you by a few years.

Had a "FOX 35" which was a screaming demon, with a 10-6 prop, and the
biggest one they made at the time.

Had an "O/R 60" that had seen better days.

Hooked it up to as drill motor and used it as a compressor to spray
airplane dope.

Ah yes, the toys of one's childhood.
