Im with Tony T, here in Ga. it's 3 times a day most all summer, of course I'm outside most all day. I had a job working in a grocery store when i was in my early teens. When I had guys come in to pick up some stuff on their way home in the afternoon, who had been out all day poring asphalt...

As an electrician, I have used clamp ons for amp metering for many, many years at the plant. I have total faith in using them for all levels of AC current feeds. But do not trust them for low level DC feeds. Im sure they have improved by todays standards, but I would install a second manual...

Because of your post , WileE, I did some digging and finally found the exact race I did attend when I was 12. I was incorrect on several "memories". The race I attended was the Rebel 400 at Darlington on Mothers Day weekend of May 9, 1970, not the Firecracker 400. Petty only led three laps...

While I was not paying attention, it now looks like most all the Dot 3 on the shelf at the auto parts store, is now listed as synthetic. Is the synthetic stuff as hydroscopic as the old Dot 3? Why the change, is it better or just cheaper to make? I have a 68 GTX that's going to need total...

Once it s out you can see and repair/replace any butchered wiring. The rodents can really do some damage. Best time to do any mods needed for radios or gauges, fix air vents and best of all REPAINT. Whatever paint I use, I finish up with a matte finish clear coat. It covers and protects a bit...

Barely dropping into the high 70's here at night, we waiting on some of that cool down here....

I have been wondering if any of today's clear coats used in bccc sprayed over any of the enamel spray bombs would help keep the paint looking better a bit longer under all the heat. Many of the urethan clears are just two parts, clear and hardner, no reducer, so I don't think lifting would be a...

Thanks Guys. I consider myself to be a rookie painter at best, but try to learn to be better at any chance I get, as I have much to learn. Never attempted to paint a patched up car as this one that had the factory paint just coming loose at various spots. I just kept grinding back as eldubb...

As Darnell said, "You can't polish a turd", well, here is my attempt to paint one. It was a huge learning experience in prep work for me and Im hoping it won't fall off any time soon. This effort will be helpful when the time comes to paint the 68 GTX.

Thanks, I would have been 14 at that time, always thought it was before 1972, thanks WileE

Guys, been trying to figure out what year was the only nascar race I attended many years ago. It was the Firecracker 400, held during the summer months at the Darlington Speedway in S. Carolina. I was in the Boy Scouts and they let Scouts in for free that race. My two Scout leaders loaded up a...

I liked listing to "LaFonda" on my old Garmin, about the third time she had to say "Recalculating" she would get sarcastic as hell and be totally pissed at 5 or 6 times....

Yes, I want the main four live local networks same schedule as antenna. You can get many live news channels same as networks time with Roku, but not regular scheduled feeds, at least I have not found one. As per the Cordcutter link, I don't want to pay $80 bucks a month just to get locals...

Guys, my house sits down in a hole and I cannot get but one local station this time of the year. I have a 30 foot antenna pole and the biggest yagi style antenna I can purchase and have moved up and down, got a rotatater, but can only get CBS year around. I can get F0X during the winter months...

We have all seen it a million times, why would a guy with a nice home, beautiful wife and family, leave it all to go be with a woman with five kids that lives in a trailer, its only for one reason. It's because of the way she makes him feel. Simple as that. Men are so easy, some women learn that...

Somewhere in Nam, 1971.

In the movie, "The Way Back", based on a true story, the guys walked some 4000 miles from Northern Russia to India. In one scene they are in some country being eaten alive by swarms of bugs. They see some locals walking by not being bothered at all by the bugs. They have this ring of something...

Guess Im in the minority, as I run a 195s in all my street motors that burn unleaded. But of course, Im down south and have never operated any engine in frigid winter months you northern boys do. Back when many motor oils were paraffin based the low temp stats would cause lots of crude buildup...

I believe the best fan belts on the market are made by Dayco. I also buy hoses made by Dayco where ever possible. But I go thru so much I buy the 10-15-20 foot rolls sold in bulk off ebay.
