Those are made for the Down Under market. They work correctly here. Used for adjusting imported toilet cisterns so that the water swirls the correct way.

Yeehaw!!

 

Are there any states east of the Mississippi where that could be turned around?

 

So they are West of the Mississippi?

 

Why sure, I could do that right near my house.
The technique, though, is an act I learned from my buddy.

I think I worked with the welder on a pipeline crew . He always said he was a position welder , had to be in the right position or he couldn’t weld it !

I wonder if the floors are still good? I'll bet that truck can haul Ash

 

Can't register that in Massachusetts I believe there is a 13 inch max height out of the hood. Driver obstruction!

 

Beach parking lots only ?

 

There have got to be some of your fellow citizens who are devious enough to register it with a 2 barrel, then go home and add the blower.

 

That’s only 13 inches out of the hood. But my wife is spoiled. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

 

That's what she said !

 

Does she know the difference between inches and millimeters?

 

Nope she teaches kindergarten and they don't do math. I am a lucky man. (sometimes).

 

Didn't work with my wife she taught 4th grade.

The Arch Motel is still there, but cars are long gone

 

I'll preempt this post by saying I don't like modern cars.

I would not like them here or there.
I would not like them anywhere.
I do not like fart cans and tuners.
I do not like them, Sam-I-Am.

What I do like though is the dumb stuff that gets made, that could readily land you on this page, but takes incredible bravery to drive.

Made me giggle when someone applied that same logic and stuffed the blown motor out of a high-end crotch-rocket into a SmartCar.

I talked to that guy, he couldnt tell me anything.

 

Have to admit that this thread has been a great release for me, to unload some of those crazy things that living out on the street has shown me over the years.
I'm thinking though that I'm close to the bottom of the pile with this one, but here we are.
Running into the Cross Bronx Expy via the GW Bridge ( big truck ) can make one callous to the sights that 'The Big Apple" can show. One Spring as the big bicycle tour of The City approached
I was coming off the bridge, one evening rolling downhill, onto the"Cross Bronx Expy" traffic was running at full pace without any slowing (Yay), which surprised me as it appeared that some one's racing bike had left its trunk rack to lie in the roadway.
The kicker was that it had been there long enough to have no protrusions.
There was not any evidence of metal sticking upward. A 2 dimension representation of a bike.
So I simply rode over it like hundreds of others must have.

 

I hope there wasn't a two dimensional version of the rider!
