    Cars that hold a special place in your heart

    I had a 72 Ford Maverick ( Don't laugh) Had a 351 Cleveland, the big 4bbl quench chamber heads, 4 speed top loader trans, 9" rear end. Did tons of work on that thing. Barely street legal. Never took pictures of it. Best time I ever ran with it at Union Grove Drag strip in Wi. was a 11.72. Don't...

    Cars that hold a special place in your heart

    I used to see this in front of my house back in the 70's. My next door neighbor was one of the crew members on the original Chi-Town car. It used to get my dad so mad. Once in a while they would do a tune up on it and fire that up. Holy crap!!!! That thing made the windows rattle on our block...

    What Kind of Dog Do You Have?

    1 year old Belgian Shepherd. This is "Bronson" Sorry about the lousy picture. My wife and kids bugged me for months about getting a dog. We had a German Shepherd before. Eventually my wife gave me a guilt trip and I told her get whatever you want as long as it's a Shepherd. She picked him...

    Question about posting links from other sites.

    O.K. thanks folks. I totally understand that. Very cool forum and everybody seems real nice and helpful. Just wasn't sure and to tell you the truth I'm one of those that doesn't always read the rules. Part of my A.D.D./O.C.D. I appreciate the forum rules. So far it seems like I could spend 24/7...

    Question about posting links from other sites.

    I saw in another thread and someone posted that they can't post links. Are we not allowed to post a link to or from another site? I'm not in any way trying to stir the pot. I'm just curious and don't want to get banned. from what I've checked out this is a fantastic forum, but I also belong to...

    I live in a townhouse. One of the "ladies" on the association pulled up in my driveway while I was finish cleaning my car and said "I always see you cleaning your car." "We should go into business together." My response was " Why should I go into business with you when I'm the one doing the...

    I want a Tornador but><<<???

    If you want my compressor advise. Stay away from those Craftsman oil less vibrators. I had one and literally gave it away. I bought a belt driven oiled compressor and it's much quieter and is dual voltage. I have a 220v 50amp outlet in my garage so I can use my MiG welder or the compressor. It's...

    Liquid glass ? Urgent!

    I've looked at it several time at my local auto parts store. I really didn't care for the way it's supposed to get applied. That's just me and not the product. By the way. Very cool "vintage" can Mike. I've got a few old pieces that I'm going to put up on a swag shelf above my computer. old...

    Where can I find squeeze bottles locally for my Collinite 845?

    I was going to suggest the same thing. I was also thinking about an empty mustard bottle from the fridge. Washed out, of course.

    How often is too much for waxing.?

    Thanks to everyone. wow Mike. That is a huge difference in the tape line. That yellow just looks awesome when it's polished. My pilot is "alabaster silver". It has an excellent metal flake to it. Funny thing with silver( or at least the silver pilots I've seen) is that up close it looks a little...

    How often is too much for waxing.?

    I'm using Mothers Brazilian cleaner wax. I'm really am new to all of this. I'm also not really a big internet buyer cause I'm a little paranoid about using my debit/credit card over the internet. I go into an auto parts store and buy my things that way.

    How often is too much for waxing.?

    Not sure if this has been asked before. Like the rest of us, I like having a gleaming ride. I've wax my Pilot at least 4 times in the past 6 weeks. Just curious. I'm only waxing and not doing any kind of cutting. Or is there a slight cutting being done every time I wax.
