I haven't driven the 72 AMC wagon in almost 4 weeks after flushing the cooling system and putting on all new hoses and thermostat. Take her out on a quiet two lane highway. Seventeen out and seventeen back. Car drove fine and even had it up as high a 95 mph. This 360 is definitely stronger...

While I work on restoring the USS Hornet there is another museum ship close by which is the titled Red Oak Victory. Pulled out of the Suisun Reserve Fleet in 1998. By the time I got out there there were only five Victories left and they were in terrible shape. Now the Red Oak Victory is not in...

How many of you get a private message now and then asking you about a car you have for sale yet you have NO car for sale. Third time this year for me. Latest is about a phantom 74 Charger I supposedly have for sale.

I check Craigslist every night and saw this ad for a Pinto wagon in the Sacramento region. Yet what caught my attention was everything in the background. Great for car spotters.

This Roadmaster wagon caught my attention and while I was admiring it's massive qualities I failed to pay attention to the upper right background until later.

This guy is a real A-hole. Just about everything one doesn't like in a seller this fellow exhibits. Got to read his content on this real 1975 Dodge Charger R/T so he says. Tons of pictures where all I see is trash but as always in the eyes of the seller. No one here is buying this thing of that...

How many of you get private messages from whoever (always brand new members no posts) saying they are interested in buying that car or a part and you have no clue as to who they are and why? Just got another one in the last day about buy the car and ship to PA.

I'm off Wednesdays but pick my son up from school at 2:55 down the road. The road being US 680 about 10 miles and then back home. Traffic pattern has heavy traffic starting at 2:45 on both 680 North from the San Jose region and CA 24 East from the San Francisco region. Like this for 20 years. I...

You mean this isn't a Cougar? Someone caught me.

I mentioned him in another thread but lo and behold he showed up yesterday. Way up in the Island I heard the lift running and looked over the side to see Willie walking off the lift using his walker. Didn't get over to say Hi till noon during my lunch as I was busy with other tasks. Willie was...

I don't know what it is that people who visit museums or similar protected sights do not understand about don't touch. When in college, 1974, the environmental science class went down to a protected marine area off Scripps to practice laying out squares to count animal types and quantity. While...

I don't see anything that allows me to delete old messages from my inbox. All are selected by where is "delete"?

Ok, I have been reading this story on the Ford truck Forum about this guy tearing into his 7.3 diesel truck engine where he had tapping noises and found metal shavings. He is doing all this work in a rented garage since he is on the road and not near home using the tools he has. All I can say...

I rarely ever, in my life, have been stranded by a car mechanically. Outside of the first time I had a timing belt car and the belt broke me not knowing they are a replacement item. Luckily a non-interference engine. Wednesday morning I stop at the ARCO 1.5 miles away from me to top off the gas...

My wife and 10 year old son left for the Philippines on the 10th and arrived on the 12th. First time back for both of them in 5 years. My son now being 10 I felt would see the place much different from when he was 5. Food for one as he is now more picky. Accommodations now looking primitive to...

I got a kick out of this little article. Some funny stuff but also some very true nuggets of insight regarding cars and people. I'm definitely on board with more manual transmissions. Make Driving Dangerous Again - Outside - Pocket

For the Blue Angels in El Centro. The guy who did the video did an amazing job following the jets.

Possibly and it seems to be the Russians. While we have dissected Tesla it seems the Russians are more concerned over SpaceX. What he has accomplished there is truly revolutionary and gets overlooked here. What the Russians think: Russia’s passive-aggressive reaction to SpaceX may mask a...

An interesting article I just read and it had one word that always catches my attention because I so loath the damn little creatures. Climate Change Enters Its Blood-Sucking Phase

On January 8th my father went in for brain surgery two benign meningiomas which turned out to be more aggressive growing than normal. I'll tell you now if that ever happens in your older age make sure you PRESS the doctor regarding treatment as they will try to minimize it if you are 88 years...
