  2. I must live too far out in the woods.

    There's been a hot rod in my garage since the day I was born, and I have no ****ing clue what an OG is...:confused:
    I hope it's not a ***ual term... boy will I be embarr***ed....

    Old Gold?
    Organic Gardening?
    Overly Gay?
    Over***ed Granny?

    I was thinking Ol Skool... since I know that Z has taken the place of S, but I didn't know G took over S too...

    It's like all the other consonants want to make an S of themselves...

  8. Saw off the stock steering column about 4" below the floor/firewall.
    Then saw the "jacket" of it back 2" more,leaving about 2' of steer shaft exposed.....

    Make a Delrin bushing to fit both the jacket and shaft.
    Or if you are creative install a sealed bearing of the appropriate inner and outer dimension..

    Then make a "detent" bracket on the jacket to allow the second gear lever to actuate the auto trans shifting-[at the same time it provides a "lockout" for neutral and park]........
    [A neutral switch is a smart addition on the detent too.]
     
  9. Got any pics of this?
