Yes, it has always been a premier event, legendary in fact. I have never been to it, but would have liked to attend......but now its just too far...
Personally, I consider it to be a classic. I'm a Chevy guy at heart, but old Mustangs are not only "classics", they are an Icon. That's why we...
Have you ever been to the Street Rod Nationals in Louisville Ky? Its about half as far away as LA, and the swap meet is always pretty large, full...
@Ebbspeed You are very welcome. I found that creating electronic folders on my computer for things makes it easier to find helpful info quickly....
Here is some info that may help. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] And some...
Personally, I like how the headrests look. Yep, purists will disagree and thats fine, but I think they actually give the interior a little...
A Brass radiator will transfer more heat than an aluminum radiator. I don't think most people would not dispute that fact. A Brass Radiator...
Its not that simple. Something you have to consider is the effect of heat on the oil in an engine. Late model engines run higher temps in order...
I agree with Anthony.........;) The color you have chosen is kind of sedate, not fettered by glitzy or garish paint . I'd keep the engine in that...
First, is the fan turning in the right direction ? Probably is, but thought I would mention it. Second, the fan shroud you have has a lot of...
The measurements simply let me see how much bigger/smaller the next size wrench is. I never have to actually measure any bolt . In some cases the...
But Anthony, so were cars with light colored tops. So either way was traditional. :D [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Bet you wouldn't drive...
I'd say that there really isn't any rule of thumb about about light or dark colors that works for all vehicle designs. You will see some two tone...
Had a similar experience, but wanted to add that it doesn't take much of a grade. The big thing I think is how much the trailer lifts the tow...
Now, if only there was a size that worked with Duct Tape............:D
Another good idea..........people can buy packs of small magnets (appx 1/2 x 1 or larger) on Amazin pretty cheaply. I use them in the shop to...
I did...............but they tried and failed several times. Lots of good memories watching liars expressions when they got exposed. :D The...
[ATTACH] Handy Tape Dispenser............ Saw this on the internet a few days ago and thought it was a good idea. [ATTACH] I Seem to never...
There must be something I don't understand about how inflation is calculated..........I'm sure they said we only had about 6% inflation....
How do you mess up a Torx screw ? :cool:
I luv torq screws...........they almost never strip the head when installing them in anything. Can't say that about slotted and Phillips. I...
People are affected by their surroundings. Look around you at the others living in similar conditions and ask yourself if thats who you want to be...
The bad thing about "experience" is that it usually comes at a price. Dropping out of High School is a choice that will most likely make it...
Most of us always dreamed of having large tool boxes with every tool size lined up perfectly . Reality and life have shown me that (as you...
Like I said earlier...........If everyone would stop worrying about whether things are Metric or Standard and just organize them by their size,...
Yes, I do mean well and I'm glad you took it that way. Its difficult when you are young and have limited options...........and virtually no real...
You don't need a 10 second or even an eleven second car at 16 years of age if you want to see 17. Sorry to be so blunt, but the basic skills of...
There were lots of quality parts made in all those eras...........and lots that were not. Simply look at some of the precision machines that were...
The first thing is you have to know how tall the ceiling is in his garage. Then you need to know how heavy the vehicles that may be lifted (both...
Jim, been doing some catching up on your thread. Looks like you are getting there............... (Just got to page 8) Wanted to mention 3 things...
