    Dork -

    the reason you're getting banged on has to do with the fact this is a trad rod forum. there are guys here with 'other' stuff - like planes, boats, race cars, etc. from post '62 - we pretty much avoid talking about them here. While it's cool that you have an 8BA, that does not provide license to talk about what should have been a K-car abortion. Better to profess ignorance about fixing a flat than to mention what it's on - but you know that by now.

    Well, now you know better than to admit you own a sundance. Everybody was starting out once, but nobody wants to admit it anymore.

    Those plug tools are highly over rated. The easy way is to lay the plug on the ground and drive over it. Couple tries and you'll get a feel for the rollout of your tires, and hit it right.

    funny shit right there.
     
  9. damn the kid asks a question about the quality of a plug for his tire and all you people get excited......
    what happens if he asked for a plug in his radial www on his T? I'm sure most of you ass holes would be helpful and not running off of the mouth. some of you need to just fuck off and shut the fuck up!

    dorksrock....seems like a good kid with lots of ideas and plans to put together a good car, more than most of you....

    you'll damn near double the value of the car if you pay to get it plugged!

    just rip the vin plate off and leave it along side of the raod somewhere!

    it's Tuesday night...and the animals are hungry.


    and it's good natured ribbing...speaking of which...

    I bought some condoms the other day that were "ribbed for her pleasure...so I turned 'em inside out! Bitch!" -A.D. Clay.
     
  15. Okay, I wasn't gonna' give ya' shit until:
    Holy cow, son... I wouldn't have ever picked up a wrench if I'd known how to pick up a wench. Don't they have Tom Leykis where you are? Somebody hook this kid up with some 101. Or he'll end up married at twenty-one to some chick who cuts all her hair off, gets fat, and quits putting out before the ink is dry on that certificate.

    Seriously... back on topic: plugs aren't as good as a patch. But I'll do a string-fix (plug) any day of the week before I have do take a rim off the car, let alone dismount it. Just a lazy-ass flat-rate bastard.:D

    I don't know if the plugs at walmart or WTFever store you are at are any good.

    Maybe one of the HAMB is more interested in helping out instead of busting your balls, and'll show up and give you a primer in dismounting tires w/o a machine.

    Heres what you do, Step by step instructions on how to fix your flat tire the cheapest way 1; take the plymouth sundance with the donut out of the drive way. 2: get it up to 60 (if it will go that fast). 3: find a really thick concrete (or brick) wall. 4: aim it at the wall. 5: jump out 6: The car should then hit the wall at 50-60 MPH depending on when you jump out.

    That will take care of any problems you will have with that car

    DUCT TAPE ..works all the time ....

    [​IMG]

    Adhesive tape (specifically masking tape) was invented in the 1920's by Richard Drew of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing, Co. (3M). Duct tape (the WWII military version) was first created and manufactured in 1942 (approximate date) by the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division. Its closest predecessor was medical tape.

    The original use was to keep moisture out of the ammunition cases. Because it was waterproof, people referred to the tape as "Duck Tape." Also, the tape was made using cotton duck - similar to what was used in their cloth medical tapes. Military personnel quickly discovered that the tape was very versatile and used it to fix their guns, jeeps, flat tires, aircraft, etc. After the war, the tape was used in the booming housing industry to connect heating and air conditioning duct work together.

    What a great time for you guys. Lots of fun at the expense of some kids pride.

    Too bad for him (and the future of this hobby) that he might decide that all "traditional" hot rodders are dicks.
    Remember that guy that helped you out with your ride (also a pos) when you were kids?

    He is looking down now, wishing that insted of helping a good kid, he would of left your piece of shit rusting in your mom's driveway.

    Way to go. When you're stuck on the side of the road needing a hose clamp or something. Don't wonder why other rodders don't see you, or stop to help.

    It's called Karma (Carma), bitches.

    The good natured ribbing I understand, But some of you guys are really belittling (sp?) a 17 year old kid that respects your opinon.

  27. I'd say, give the kid a break, we don't all learn this carstuff from our dads and grand dads. I wish I had.

    The joke is obviously on you Chief. Owning a POS is a life lesson, only learned by living it. I'd think a fire chicken owner would know that.
