Too bad that "Plymouth" was a Mitsubishi.

Do ya mean like Cordoba/Coronet/Fury? New Yorker/Fury/Polara? And many other makes. I read a couple days ago Honda and Nissan are in negotiations.

The F-4 owes much of its heritage to two other MAC (McDonnell Aircraft Company) planes-the F2H Banshee and the F-3 Demon. Placed side by side you can see how they morphed into the F-4. I remember seeing and hearing the Phantoms as they left the Phactory just down the road. I live in the flight...

Nope, the driveway leads to the carport.

Never had a garage, just an uncovered carport. Either worked curbside or on the carport. Done engine/trans swaps on cars and moorsickles. Don't see a garage in my future, either.

Does anyone find it ironic this area once had lead smelting operations that were closed by the EPA for "environmental reasons"?

At work we got out band saw blades from McMaster-Carr. Didn't order often but they worked well.

Back in the 70s we towed a 19' boat with a70 Challenger, 318 auto, 3.23 gears. I don't know how much it weighed, but when we put it on a 4k lb capacity trailer, it flattened the springs, so we got another trailer.

And Federal-Mogul was owned by Tenneco, which was bought by Apollo Global Management.

How to fix listeria contaminated meat? With Listerine, of course!

Plymcrazy, you may have dodged a bullet (No puns intended)! The tram on the north leg of the Arch stopped about 100 feet from the bottom yesterday. It sensed a cable problem, activating the automatic brakes. People were trapped for about two hours until crews got them out of the cars and they...

Imo's? Not any more. Provel (not Provolone) cheese and way overpriced. They used to actually put toppings on their pizza. There are a few different routes through and around STL. Manchester Road (MO 100) is the original route out of town but these days it's nothing but stoplights and strip malls...

There aren't any sellers if there aren't any buyers.

I would bet many of you have pictures of your kids, your grand kids, and your parents have pictures of yourselves as newborns before you came home from the hospital hanging on the wall in your home and I had a hand in it. Problem is, nobody knows...or cares!
