They work excellent on Phillips screws also.
Yep. Those things are cheap, and super useful. It seems that very few people own one.
Modern jets have an air driven generator that pops out the side of the plane during an emergency, if all the other generators fail. To power the...
These days they are called an air driven generator (ADG), or a ram air turbine. I’m not sure if that’s the same name they used back then
Dang. I spent a couple years working as a flight instructor. Soloing someone with 6.5 hours of flight time sounds terrifying to me, although I...
I like the idea of using Mexican blankets. Do you guys have any good tips of how to fasten them to a seat, so they aren’t constantly sliding around?
This car was built in the past 10 years, in Orlando. I forget the guys name.
This would be a good business opportunity for someone. The Mustang II stuff is decent, but it hasn’t been mass produced for 40 years, and it’s a...
Very cool. This is way before my time. It looks straight out of the movie American Graffiti. That is my favorite era of hot rodding.

Exactly. I used up several of those Camaros myself, on the dirt tracks of Michigan. Some of the best times of my life. I got one fairly nice...

Built a new work bench. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Don started building that beauty in 2006. There was a big build thread on Clubhotrod.com, that website is mostly gone now.
I definitely agree with all of that. I was fortunate enough to buy a lift this year, and I went with a four post, so I should be able to use well...
Yep, exactly. Today “corporate” tire shops such as Walmart and Firestone are not allowed to repair tires in any way. They will only sell you a new...
In 2021, I drove my T Bucket from St. Petersburg, Florida to Lansing, Michigan and back. About 2500 miles round trip. I had multiple long rain...
The type that 49ratfink shows, works very well, and is not hard to do. As long as the hole is not on or near the sidewall. I’ve used them many...
Would the lights turn on while this was happening?
Aw man. Sorry about your bad luck. You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Scary deal. I’m glad you are ok, and can start the...
I love slots too.
That was my guess. It was somebody who works in a machine shop, or at least has their own mill at home.
This one is causing a big argument over on Facebook. Lol. It’s a 4 lug / 5 lug wheel. Does anyone recall these things being sold by any of the...
This has been my daily driver for the past two and a half years. [ATTACH]
I believe the Starbird collection was all sold to the Speedway museum.
