I'm just a Kraut civillian, but I want to thank "Butch" for all he has taught me about them old cars. He joined the Service way back when he was...

I'd run bias ply tires on EVERY car if the darn things weren't so friggin' expensive over here. But money's tight, and I always settle for...
I found that effort is reciprocal to the desired outcome most of the time. It also helps to see paint as a colorful protective layer to prevent...
Over-the-counter LED taillights sure look inappropriate, be it a 40's style hot rod or just a 60's vintage pony car. It's not their increased...
wouldn't bash the wife, without knowing about their financial situation and her faith and love in/ for him. There's always a risk of doing someone...
reminds me of the '58 Edsel station I found 'bout four years ago. original paint, virtually no rust, no dings or dents, all original right down to...
whoa, that sucks royally. There is a reason why I am stamping all my modified and rebuild parts with my vehicles VIN numbers, from front...

x2 ;) , plus I vote for middle name "Chinaski"
"Gamblers" mandates either dices or cards. And I really dislike all the bones and spider webs. Bottle of booze is ok for me, but probably not for...
and while we're at it: it's a BONNET, not a hood. :D
Good God almighty! Would love to see one of those dissected, though that'd be a shame. Did he leave any plans behind? Probably not, I don't...

nah, just desperate.
I always thought of "Return to Macon County" as a cheap ripoff of "two-lane blacktop", albeit one suited for a less artistically inclined (and...
Most probably the latter. First-aid treatment of an injured femoral artery is especially difficult and becomes worse the closer the injury is...
All I remember about my last little shop accident is the anaesthetics pouring out of the five damaged major vessels again, when the physician...

It's your property, do whatever you see fit. two more things coming to my mind, randomly and possibly negligible: 1) unmolested, complete cars...
