'Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.' The priest asks, 'Is that you, little Joey Pagano?' 'Yes, Father, it is.' 'And who was the girl you were with?'

Could someone please post a list of things to do to a ride to prep it for winter storage in a cold garage ? I know, I know, heat the garage. But if I am putting it in cold storage, a list would be nice. Things like a full gas tank or near empty, remove the upholstery if possible, put it up on dollies, etc.. Th...

We put on another and when I got home, I tried to unblock the line but one end...

It's a bit hokey I guess but it does have some nice old cars racing - it's a 2020 movie 45 minutes long with a Barney Fyfe type character. It has a Willys and a 55 racing. Hope someone here likes it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2Rp-x59uVY

Well I got my new intake manifold on and even got it running with a lot of help from Wuga and Bill. But one of the things I learned from what I consider a major leap in understanding how my ride works is that once I have it apart, maybe I should keep going deeper. After putting everything back together we did...

For anyone thinking about rigging up a choke cable mount instead of waiting for one in the mail, I just made one from the stainless steel in an old bar-b-q. It seems to work ok but I still have to wait for the Stromberg rocket clip (unless I can figure out how to make one of those too).
