Window didn't go in. When I arrived and passed my work area I noticed my caulking gun had been tapered with. The tube had it's tip hacked off half way down, half the tube was gone, and then left exposed. I had already spent $450 of my money on supplies which included this. Went up to where the...

Don't work on cars unless Sunday. Some Wednesdays are on cars and some on the Hornet. No work needed on the Polara. Work has been on the Ambassador wagon and now, since back, putting the Ford 410 engine together. Saturdays are always reserved for work on the Hornet. Have a window, I made, to...

I can tell you that at 70F there is 1.46gr/lt. of O2 vs. at 200F it is about 1.04-05/gr/lt. A fair difference in O2 molecules available to burn. I just removed the lifetime air filter in my 2004 Focus. The foam was 4 1/2 inches thick and fairly dirty. I installed a new box with replaceable...

I don't like these air cleaners. All they do is suck in hot underhood air when the car is moving. The higher the air temperature the less dense oxygen is.

Between 1992-98 I watched a Chevy truck literally disintegrate from the top down on Anza and 19th in San Francisco. That is the Outer Richmond district and Anza points due west so the heavy fog rolls straight down all those similar streets. By 98 the cowl and A pillar were toast and the body...

How easy can you make it?

Sharon Tate was an easy one. Actress, director and 1969 made it easy. Even easier is that Spahn Ranch, where some of the Manson Family liked to hang out between 1968-1970 was 5 miles, as the crow flies, from where I lived. The ranch on the north end of the Chatsworth Park North and my family on...

Also got it with the clues.

Twenty years and I will be 91 and I doubt I'll be going under the car then. If I did anything it would be to make it feel similar to the CHP version in 1973 which we all know was rubber. Bigger sway bars are not to be found in junkyards around here. So for me it is for driving on the freeway...

I don't do parallel parking anywhere. If I did that would mean someone possible in front of me and behind me trying their hand at it with my car right there. Oh, no, and I spent 10 years in San Francisco with two them them parallel parking everyday till I had a garage. I've seen how others do it...

I saw him mentioned when diving into the archives for information. The actual work will be done early next year after the Parklane engine is finished. Both will never get their suspensions rebuilt again by me as I will be around 88-90 then but you never know.

Well I did replace the front springs in my F-100 and found that the old springs were both the same size when, in reality, the springs are slightly different in height from the factory. As to the Ford vs Chrysler when trying to put it into words I would say the Ford drives as though it is a...

So the consensus is: 1. Upgrading the power steering box is Ok. 2. Poly bushings on the sway bar are fine which I expect since all my cars have poly there. 3. Tubular upper control arms not needed. 4. Upper control arm bushings in poly are Ok? 5. Strut rod bushings in rubber. Idler arm in...

I spent several hours looking over the different parts and suppliers to rebuild my original front suspension and have a question. I already decided to get the Firm Feel Stage 1 power steering box. Also decided on their upper control arms so I have more control over alignment. After that there is...

Another Imperial. That is two in two days when I haven't seen an Imperial in person for at least several decades. This one is interesting as it is parked 1 block from B.A.R.T on a street that no one parks on when Saturday or Sunday. So it is there all be itself and wan't there Friday at 3 in the...

Spotted last week across the street from my office. Made me do a double take as I walked out of Togos and saw it. What was there a few years ago was a 62 or 63 Thunderbird convertible.

Up in Sacramento. Me, I am not interested. If a seller can't take 30 minutes to clean the crap out then I can't take any time to look. Not talking wash just remove junk on the floor and leaves on the cowl.

How legit this is I have no idea seeing as how all the pictures were taken in a small motel parking lot as though the owner lives there. Does have original correct CA blue plates

here: I got a Station Wagon!

I'll talk to the AAA driver as he took a ton of pictures...
