    "Please S T O P saying this" thread.

    That seems reasonable. But what scale are they using? Is 1 good or bad The air quality today was 1, the same as yesterday, but I do not know if that is good or bad. And I do not know what scale they are using. 1 to 5, or 1 to 10, or 1 to 100. Watching a movie, Enemy below. They are using feet...

    "Please S T O P saying this" thread.

    These abbreviations are waisted on me. The wild life group on my Island use GROWELL. The G is probably for Gabriola. At the ferry docks, they are at MARSEC level 1. MADD is mothers against drunk driving. So I do know one. There are many more.

    Driveshaft source

    You can get a decent machine shop to build on. It is a tube with the universal joints at each end. I did that a long time ago. The match two shafts in the middle and weld plan did not work. I got a vibration. Had to get any info from Hot Rod magazine back then

    Lowest new gas prices in your area?

    $156.9 per litre. About four to the US gallon. 4.546 to the Imperial gallon. The oil comes from Alberta, is refined at Cherry Point WA, and back to BC. We are currently boycotting the US, so not buying gas in WA. Many in the US are buying oil from AB. We are currently arguing about a pipeline...

    Tip of the iceberg?

    The noise of the adds, makes it hard for me to listen as the tank gets close to full. So I often make a small puddle.

    My first ride in a car was a Jowett Javelin.

    Cold is relative. Some guy on a motorcycle forum was saying it can get cold in Florida. Tell that to someone from the prairies.

    What was the first car you remember falling in love with?

    Vot kind of love are we talkin? The first time I got seriously laid, was in the back seat of a 36 Vauxhall. I later graduated to a 33 Ford, which had even more room, plus ankle straps. Modern vehicles do not seem to have any room at all, unless of course it is a camper van.

    What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

    Yesterday 2 new coils arrived for my 83 XS400 winter bike. Installed them and now it runs on both cylinders. Will test ride today, in the rain.

    Overdrive on 318 Poly

    How fast are you running. I recall my 59 Fury would do 80 easy enough. But the bias tyres were not up to the job of making the car go where you wanted to.

    Old T-Birds, who likes them

    George just bought one. If I pick him up for darts on Friday, I. could dent the left hand rear with my truck. No charge. Maybe I will just tell George I hit it, and he owes me a beer.

    Old T-Birds, who likes them

    Boss had one in Hawaii. I used to drive it to get beer on Friday afternoons. Was a late sixties model. Early sixties I discovered they used a 312 T bird motor in the Ford passenger car. I bought one and stuffed it in my 37 Ford.

    Well I just dropped the bomb yesterday!

    Well done. There are lots of programmes and events happening. You will find your place. We are going to Alaska in 2026. Plus other stuff.

    Christmas Decorations - Who's Already Done

    The star is shining on my Island place. The outdoors lights are up and running on Shirleys mainland place. Next week I will erect the fake tree. Shirley will decorate. The following Saturday I will be back on my Island to light up the boat. One night only. Then back to the mainland for Christmas...

    Christmas Decorations - Who's Already Done

    Outdoor lights are done. Fake tree next week. Back to my Island to put lights on the sailboat. 13 Dec I think. Back to the mainland for Christmas. I will leave a star shining on my Island house. Could put lights on timer, but the power can go off and ruin that plan. So the star is on full time...
