Just picked this up last weekend in Nanaimo, BC. Drove it home outside Victoria without serious issues (Approx 95 miles at highway speeds). Wanted something I could drive while I tinker with it. Overall decent shape, couple of gremlins, a few dings and a couple of small rust spots, but very use-able...
Wooooo. :) So, One of the biggest things for me as a car guy moving back to ON, was the ability to throw 1949 plates on the Dodge. In AB, you could do this, but it was kind of complex, you had to keep the original plate in the glovebox, and the Year of plate technically was only good for "parades" o...
so after spending 6 hrs last Monday fixing my cab light issue I found myself sitting in the Magnetawan Home Centre parking lot at 5pm Tuesday with the chevy not wanting to start. So I took a holiday day and spent the morning waiting for CAA to show up and by noon the truck was back in the garage. So I thought I...

Lately it has had an intermittent issue with the thrower's belt slipping - one day fine, next day useless. Last night was one of tho...
I've been dealing with Allstate Carburetor from time to time over the past 4 years or so. They have always come through with my purchases in a quick friendly fashion. This time my order involved a bit of a twist. They had a lot of different size vacuum plugs on sale, so I bought 4 of each size along with some...

The Average Human walks 900 miles a year and drinks 22 gallons of beer. Which means the average human gets 41 MPG! Not bad. I wonder if you eat beans is that like a turbo?
Several years ago when I stilled worked at the St.Catharines engine plant we made the corvette motor. 2 members of upper management though it would be great to have a Camaro with a vette engine built and documented at the factory. Kind of a modern day copo. They spent months having 3 motors built to very...

I loved the Eco-boost infomercial series with Mike Rowe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rudyTqsREZI Ford pulled out all the stops. On paper the Eco-boost sounds amazing. What I want to know is how they are holding up and if the fuel economy is there according to real world drivers. I've heard they are th...
