I do the same. When I'm working at Mechanic's Ministry I always teach the kids about jack stands and safety when under a car. I grab the car and...
Never heard of this relationship before, but I could believe it. Every time I see a yuppie in a Range Rover I ask them how their Buick is running....
I wonder if cryo-treating would replicate the chilled pouring process.
Even worse, the body and frame get split up. The body gets dropped on an aftermarket frame, the frame gets rolled under a fiberglass body. Which...
Because theft is still against the law, and may get you shot and buried in the woods in many places.
That might be me some day. My barely O/T Olds convertible was the car I got married in, and took my wife on many dates in. Since being married we...
Holy smokes! Now I'm inspired to actually do the door panels on my '61 Olds.
Shame for running Ag diesel on a street car. :) I'd say new tank, I've never been a fan of the liners, gas is tough stuff to keep at bay.
Took my wife's extremely O/T daily driver to the dealer for a transmission service (quite possibly the most non-owner friendly car I've ever seen,...
Wow. All the replies and you go be a schmuck. Classy!
That is an AutoTrader Classics magazine. I have a stack of them sitting on the other side of my desk. Of course, I work for AutoTrader Classics,...
I'll be there all week covering the show for AutoTrader Classics online.
Probably way too weak, but my '73 Honda XL175 motorcycle has fully enclosed front drum brakes on the wheel. Looks like just a little drum. This...
Funny, you say "Dagmars" to me and I think of our local weather hottie Dagmar Midcap: [IMG]
Sorry about that, I didn't have time to weld in rain gutters. Hope you still like the car though!
My questioning may have finally paid off. My wife's family has been farming in South Georgia for a looong time. I had lunch with her great-uncle...
I have a copy of that book on my desk right now along with all my other car research materials. It is definitely not a book you would want to...
Nice, Chitwood would be proud: [IMG]
How about a blown Y-block in a '32?...
I always wanted to get everything off the garage floor and just dump 5 gallons of paint in the middle. Just let it spread itself and dry. Kinda...
First was my dad, he owned a Goodyear store and I grew up there climbing the tire racks and bugging the mechanics. Dad loves cars, he just hates...
[IMG] My wife asked me if I wanted another Oldsmobile. Her friend had this car sitting in her driveway as a project for her boyfriend. They lost...
My question is: did it make a run or is the laundry on the back just for show?
What's there to think about? You knew it could turn the number so you drove it the way it needed to be done. You sir are a hero to all those who...
Alright, this is just cool: http://alloy-artifacts.com/index.html [IMG] I'm gonna dig through all those tools that my great-grandpa left me and...
Ouch, but awesome! Hang it on the wall like a stuffed deer! "Man, my car spins the wheels through 1st and 2nd......." "Oh yeah, well mine hooks...
I am, all day. I work in the automotive field though so I pretty much surf forums and blogs all day. I am just lucky that I have been reading the...
As kids my brother and I used to joke that my dad's car must be methane powered...
I've been thinking about this. My friend does rust repair over in Stone Mountain. He has a machine that can spray molten steel. It's like a welder...
I make it a safe driver, then make it look good to me. Beyond that I'm not a detail kind of guy. I'm detailed on my mechanicals, but not over the...
