Restoration, or improvement? My first thought was to jack up the body and roll a modern chassis under it. Then it would make a dandy motorhome to...
Nutrocker, do you have rules that require an OEM block? Wondering why the girdle instead of a Burtz block.
Treadmill motors are perfect for a drill press too.
That's cool. I wonder what the science is behind that.
Another way to get a little oil off the top of a pan of antifreeze is to lay an oil absorbent pad on top. They soak up the oil, but won't accept...
At 20 bucks a gallon, I'd say it's pretty valuable everywhere. If you buy 50/50 mix at 17 bucks and consider that half the volume is water which...
I brought home a couple of those hoses many years ago when my dad was in the hospital. The ones I got had a little rib on the inside that kept...
My phone lives in a safe spot on the side of one of my tool boxes while I'm in the shop. When it's time to go to the house, I have trained myself...
Some wives might be a bit fussy about where you hang the red light.
Concrete block must be there to keep the little troll in the trunk from escaping.
Amazing how now days everyone is scared to death to give a diesel a little whiff of starting fluid. Used to be almost no diesel engine would start...
Oh, by the way, although my motor forker is not a hot rod, it is sort of HAMB friendly. I started with a give away 1961 International Travel-all 4...
In the early 90s I built this forklift/loader for a helping hand around here on the homestead out of old pickup parts. I wanted a good view of the...
Thanks Hansen.
Or turn the torque tube 30 degrees and redrill the Quicky case. I'm sure Gearhead has a solution. I've seen Sprint Car cases with 12 holes and...
Maybe they saved it. The other side may have been hit by a train, or rotted away in a creek bed. Looks like the back is missing too. Why so quick...
So many pop ups I can't see what they're selling, so helwithem.
Looking good. If it was mine, even welded, I think I'd put a few more rivets in it just for overkill. Don't see where you might have said what you...
Sometimes logic is a bit slow to show up during a crisis. Much easier to get it right the next time.
Hard to find a sheet of Formica that big to park on. [ATTACH]

Looks like white rubber step to me with a chrome bezel around it. Apparently he didn't have enough white.
Okay, I was told last night that the system has changed a bit here now. Seems that they still do walk ins, but you can make an appointment. If you...
Around here, worst time to go to DMV is several days before the end of the month and a few days after. Best time is middle of the month shortly...
Start with most any wagon, move the back window forward to the back of the front seat. All the elaborate tailgate work is already done for you.
I saw an ad on TV last week for a new comedy coming out next fall about a DMV office, so it must be painful to go in those places everywhere.
Haha, I think the DMV develops some of those same personality traits over long careers, except they target the public.
Likely not enough load to heat much. Rated draw on my identical DCB107 charger is 0.5 amps. According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), 18...

I had never heard of Titian Red... haha, one of a very large number of things I am unaware of. Here's what Google has to say. Sounds like ti·shn...
