I had an interesting run in with a heating and air guy at the start of the week. I have a service plan for my furnace and ac, I called because the ac was acting up and they told me I was due for routine maintenance on both. I was thinking the 30 year old ac unit was gonna need replaced. The guy took it apart and cl...
Saw a discussion on another site about how many times an alternator bearing turns over during it,s lifespan. I have thought about this at times also, and a very rough calculation by the other poster claims it would have to be in excess of a number of billions. I have often told people who bitch about the...
We're seeing RUSH tomorrow night but never been to Copps. I did the drive around on Google maps, but didn't see anything. The place must be licensed !!
I'm thinking of maybe heading down there tomorrow and then to Listowel on Sunday for the Commancheros show in the park. Anyone else heading to either of these?

After four years starting with nothing but a rough body shell, I finally took it out today for its first drive. (On a gravel road for the first 1/2 mile) Still have the plate C clamped in place but I'll fix that and hope to get many miles of enjoyment.
Finally. 7 years after I built the engine, bought all the goodies, bought a house, had a kid, lost my job at gm, got a better job at opg. I finally had time to get it running!
I saw this last weekend and remembered someone was looking for a coe.I thought this one was bang on as everything was proportioned just rite! I have saw lots with a flat deck but this is the first with a p/u box. Randy
In this economy, it's important to get the most you can from your replacement parts. Some times when we take our cars in for a repair, we'll get a list of other things that could use replacing. Sometimes these parts will easily last a few more months. In this case, the owner must have thought: "I'll...

I passed this 1980 Chevette today and did a quick u turn to check it out. This "car" is in near mint condition. The only flaw I could find was the colour fading on the interior door panels and some swirls in what looks like the original paint. Nice little 4 speed. Interior and exterior are aweso...
Well I decided I want to put disk brakes front and back and upgrade to power steering on my 56 nomad. But there is a lot of different makes and sizes out there. Just want to get feed back from others that have done sim work on there ride
