I remember seeing several flocked suede cars in the late Seventies. One that I saw was one of the Barris Batman cars (at least it was billed as...
Its a bit of a touchy subject. As a very broad generalization, those with shiney paint look down on those with flat ("suede") paint as "rat...
Don, you musted have missed the memo: http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2010-06-11-chevy11_ST_N.htm The memo was later retracted, due to...
Did you mean to look up the definition of "discription"?
In 1980, I had a girlfriend that wanted me to paint her car all flat black. I thought she was nuts. I guess she was just ahead of her time.
Just what I'm looking for! And your just over yonder, to! I love the power of the HAMB! I've got a vintage antique mordoor 1977 Maverick...
I could care less about this thread, but I keep getting drug back too it. I'm going to go read Craigslist, instead. I need to by a knew car,...
If you read that through to the end, you should buy it. The English language is constantly changing...has been for hundreds of years. But, really,...
The phrase "I could care less." is actually CORRECT American colloquial phraseology, although seemingly illogical. "I couldn't care less." is also...
From today's local Craigslist: Yours truly, Mr. Moon Shot
True dat! In fact, I'm guilty of posting some of it. Its not that I don't like safety...what's NOT to like about safety. But, I just hate the...
Now you've got a fire hazard! There's just no satisfying the safety patrol. ;)
Uhhh. No. Did you call him? You're the one defending the stupid question he was asked. Now, we take you back to your regularly scheduled...
As I've said before, if you really want to be safe, you must install a 5-point passenger restraint system, full air bag system, anti-lock brakes,...
Wow!
A poke in the eye is traditional.
I still like Winky better! But, if you really must go the hat route, here's a start:
What?! No spider web designs???? :eek: I want a winking cat! EDIT: I called the J.C. Whitney hot line. They said that they sold their last...
You didn't like my suggestion? (Post #34)
Me? NOOOO, I'm not a hot rodder. You caught me. I'm really a spy from the moon people, lurking on the HAMB to find out all that I can about humans...
Brake lights (that are contained in tail lights) that are not bright enough is a tail light problem. Easily fixed. Cool breeze, you may be on...
That's easy. Just use an period tail light (pick any one that you like), convert to LED, and mount it on the trunk/back panel in an appropriate...
I'm all for LED's!
Maybe I'm not following what you're saying. You already have TWO other lights coming on that weren't on before. How does making it three help?...
That's a special case, though. '39 teardrops are notorious for this.
My bad. :o :D Best regards, Mr. Moon Shot
Same to you, buddy. :mad: Back to mis-used descriptions, as has been repeatedly said on this very thread, "posi" is a trademarked brand name...
I don't even like 'em on modern new cars and trucks. They're redundant.
I don't get why third brakes lights work. I know studies show that they decrease the number of rearend collisons. But, if somebody doesn't see the...
Ummm. Alternatively, maybe it means that less folks who are into hot rods are dumb, ignorant Neanderthals than is popularly believed by the...
Separate names with a comma.
