    Gig on a Pot Farm

    Over the years, work has taken me all across the US and Canada, to Hong Kong (2X), South Korea (3X), China (8X), Saudi Arabia (2X), Jordan (7X), Italy, Costa Rica, and now one of the US states where commercial marijuana growth is legal. As an engineer, it is my job to reduce energy costs and...

    What is it worth?

    I'm getting a bit tired of folks jumping on this (and other) Forum(s); their first post is, "I have a car/part and want to know what it's worth". They can do their research, post whatever they have for sale and see what feedback they get, but asking what it's worth drives me bonkers! The...

    1985 Daytona Turbo, $2000

    This is not the C/S or Turbo Z, but the Base Daytona with a Turbo. It is one of 9509 such cars. It is Desert Bronze Pearl, a unique color. It is the only color that came with the lower striping kit. The engine was shot when I got it, but it has a low-mileage ’86 GLH engine in it. I did...

    Fuel Economy in History

    A few years ago I was commissioned to do a documentary on fuel economy. We finished Part 1 of what was supposed to be over an hour of information. It was stopped short due to budget cuts. However, this 11 minute piece talks about Pogue, Ogle, and other inventors, as well as gadgets, and even...

    Anybody Else Write Music?

    A few years ago when my Dad passed away, I crawled into a hole & lost myself in my music. The result was a tribute to him I call Patriarch. Anybody else write music? https://youtu.be/FqH2ZGDlCPI

    How Smart Are We??

    For decades I considered myself a “Car Guy”. I got into electronics a tad over a decade ago because to work on daily-drivers, one needs an understanding of electronics. Today that’s what I do for a living. So of late I’m an “Electronics Guy with a Strong Passion for Cars”. In addition to...

    I Think I’m Getting Old

    I remember a time when I would look at a 1972 Dart & claim, “It ain’t worth much. If it were a ’70 or ’71, I’d give you $250. Since it’s a ’72, I’ll give you $75.” And the seller would agree! I remember buying a ’74 Duster with a fold-down rear seat for $125, thinking I paid way too much…but...

    I Love my Wife (or Husband)

    No joke, no punch line, just heart-felt romance. Throughout the Joke threads, and even strewn throughout practically all categories within this Forum are degrading comments about the "old lady" (spouse in general). I feel badly for those trapped in a marriage that makes them unhappy. However...
