A while back I took a BMW to a well known body shop in Collingwood. It needed a rust repair over the back wheel, below the fuel filler door. The estimator came out and looked at it. Then he looked at me like I had 2 heads. He said, we don't do rust work here. Our guys won't do that kind of work. We are professiona...
Impressive stuff. I remember asking when at the shop about the fuel/ethanol issue as some cars sit longer than 6 months before being driven. I asked what does Jay do because fuel sits for months at a time. And ethanol was doing so much damage to his vehicles/Motorcycles. Now he uses this, and promotes i...
I've been following the drama on another "National" site lately and boy, I just have to say how glad I am to be here and I'm very thankful to Poncho for providing a great cyber place for us to hang out! I've seen so many sites crumble due to various issues, and I'm stoked about how lucky we are tha...

Well, dropped my wife off at Laurier yesterday morning before snowpocalypse happened. I spent a bit of time on the side of the road waiting out the weather, figured I could get back to stratford to work. Hah. I decided after watching the knuckleheads speeding past me, I'd be better off on a side road...
I have acquired a mid to late thirties 3 speed top loader ford trans that would bolt to a flatty. seems stuck from sitting but I will disassemble and free it up. offers or someone might need it? if not taking it to barrie/sterling
I think this subject was touched upon a few weeks ago, but couldn't find the thread. I've notice lately that fuel starts to cause me grief after only sitting for a couple of months, and I think it's related to the ethanol they now put in gasoline. Does anyone have gas without ethanol in it ?? I run everythi...

The magnets from my wiper motor fell off today. WTF. Never used it once. Turned it on and it seized up . Took it apart and the magnets were stuck to the armature. Sending back 4 years after buying it to see if they will fix it.
Hi New to this forum , I posted an article today about ethanol fuel issues, it did not go to the top only a few posts down or click on my name and it will come right up thanks. Fuelman
Amazing how quickly it gets to 200mph. I think this will be a short lived record as the Koenigsegg One:1 makes its run at the speed title in a months time. Enjoy
Hi folks and thanks for the welcome here. So nice to find a local forum for a change. Just a guy who has always loved cars and need to share. I have a 1971 Capri that I brought up from Texas 2 years ago. This is a replacement of the car I had when I was 16 and wrecked. I am slowly gathering the few parts I will need...
Is it just me, or is this long, extreme, cold winter taking a toll on anyone else's body? I feel like I aged ten years! I'm aching all the time and just tired!
Hello everyone, my name is Randy Zurbrigg ( roddguy) I followed Grant Kay (Homer) here.

I'm sure this is a common affliction among...
Brian Bishop of Wasaga Beach passed away last night. He has an orange rod with the plate "RADICOOL". Just in case someone knows him. He was 65. -- Edited by MANCAVER on Thursday 27th of February 2014 06:32:08 PM
Recently a new member signed in, stating he had a '71 Capri. I think it's a neat car, I used to own one, and you just don't see them around anymore. By the time I turned 20, I had already bought and sold 20 or so cars, many of which you just don't see regularly. Like this Firenza, I figured it would make a great...
Ok trying to insure my 1950 dodge truck rat rod as a kit car it will cost alot to insure. If someone knows where I can get my hands on a tag that would be great.
