I now have 16 4 foot fixtures in my 2 1/2 car. 4 of the fixtures LEDs from Costco that I got for Christmas from my son. I think that I need to go to 20 fixtures and the new ones will be LED. As the old ones die I will replace with LED. I just replace all the old bulbs so I have some time but the...

Quarter sawn is the only way to go with white oak.

That flame/wood grain really looks with that oil. And in a Stickley style no less, nice, nice, nice

Remember at one time hemi block and heads were rare as hens teeth. You were tripping over 440 blocks but if you found a hemi block you were going to spend big $$$ and then spend big $$$ on repairing a block that needed a lot of work. If you were a class racer you ponied up the money, but if it...

I thought they might be plugs. I bought an Steelcity mortising tool years ago for doing plugs. I think I paid 200 on sale when I bought my 22" drum sander.

I use a mid size bottle of 75/25 as I would have to try and move a large bottle myself. No thanks on that.

It does look like white oak but you have your hands on it I don't. I was only commenting on the stained frame and mistook it for white oak. That looks like a wood I should check out some time. Ether way that is a beautiful arts and craft frame. What wood did you use for your square pegs?

Nice looking arts and craft frame there. Quarter sawn whits oak always looks good plus that is what I work in.

XJ seats are nice sofas. They have no bolsters to hold you in the seat.

On my 68 GTX convert the back regulators were 3.5 lbs each and the fronts something like 3 lbs. You could drill out at least 1/2 lbs from each.

I do it all the time if I'm getting under the car

That is why I got rid of my 125 gal compressor as it had a 1946 date on it. I bought a new stand up 80 gal Curtis a number of years ago. Gas cans go out with the Lawn tractor.

Wow blast from the past. I had a set of the SS/T on my 71 RR. I traded a 413 inline dual 4 barrel intake and a Hurst shifter for them with tires/slicks back in the 80's. They were heavy

Wow a land line, old school. Woodstock I would drive through there every day going to work at Johnson motors. Bought my first house in Round Lake. Moved away to Colorado in 81, boy things have changed back there since then. Bob

That power don't you any good on the twisty back road and grandma in her mini van out handles you. If you drive at 55 in a 75 to the car show T/A's are good.
