    Throttle and kickdown cables for Super Six

    A brief write up with pics, since it seems this may work. This is how I handled the throttle and kickdown cables going from a Holley 1bbl to Carter BBD 2bbl Super Six in my 1980 D150. Everything appears to function, but is untested as of yet. The Rusty one found me a 2bbl bracket, so I had...

    Power steering and AC bracketry quandary

    I'm installing a new 225 motor in my 1980 truck. The smog pump is gone and I am definitely not digging the highboy look of the AC compressor. You can see where the smog pump used to mount. Can I use bracketry from older trucks or cars? Or has someone come up with something on their own? Any...

    Fiddlesticks! I gauged the rear of the A727

    Not sure what was harder, gettng that seal out after 42 years or taking the pic. It shouldn't matter tho right? Thinking of getting some emery cloth and smoothing it and reinstalling the new seal. Any thoughts? Never said I was any good at this. You should see what's left of the old seal.

    Old metal radiator restoration

    I got it pulled from my 1980 truck. It's heavy. When it dried, white chunks came out of the return when I shook it. There is also coolant stains on the outside here and there. I'm pondering taking it to a pro. But I have the means to dry pressure test it. And I thought of soaking it in radiator...

    Dodge W250 goodness

    If I was a decade younger and healthier, I wouldn't flinch on this one. Hell of a lot of truck for prices I'm seeing today. These pop up around here once in a great while in this kind of shape. Probably zero rust. I doubt it will last the day on CL. 1986 dodge w250 power ram 4x4 - cars & trucks...

    Trying to find info on power steering pump bracket

    It's number 4 in the pic. I either lost it or it's not needed. Anyone know what it is? Slant brackets are different from V8s.

    UPS (gripe)

    Just spent 2 hours voiding a shipment. I forgot to login and created a 'ghost' shipment. Then I logged in and created a duplicate accidentally. The 'Void' utility couldn't find the first shipment and wouldn't let me search by tracking number, so I was relegated to phone support. Whenever they...

    Big 10 Wrestling Championship (heads up)

    This weekend if you get the Big 10 channel. One of the few sporting events worth watching anymore. The Big 10 is to wrestling as the SEC is to football. Really even more dominating. No political tripe, social justice plugging, or doping scandals. Pure sport and the athletes that live it, with no...

    My Feelings

    Not sure why this sickens me, but it does absolutely. Maybe I needed it as a kid and got stuck with building model cars and airplanes, leaving my emotions unexplored. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016VGFLSC/?tag=fabo03-20

    Little League World Series

    Love it. A sporting gem still preserved. It's getting good. Beautiful Williamsport PA as the background. The powerful teams are recognized now. If you like baseball, but don't care to watch overpaid primadonnas, I recommend it.

    Soccer

    Can't stand watching it and never liked it. Now this (insert derogatory comment) city wants to charge the taxpayer for a new stadium. They say a $100 million, but they never stay anywhere near budget on projects, and get ripped off often. The (insert derogatory comment) local news report 67%...

    How do you deal with an 'on the way out' pet?

    I've got a 19 year old cat. Average lifespan is 16, so she has had a good run. There are problems I won't mention and I don't want any pain and suffering like humans have to deal with in order to appease our PC society. Pet euthanasia is a racket around here. I have come to hate the veterinary...

    Read a great quote the other day

    This one stuck with me. Likely a lot of you have seen it. Not sure who wrote it. "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery and today is a gift; that's why they call it the present."

    What are your thoughts about a fat doctor?

    I met a new doctor the other day, a surgeon. He's big. All the other male doctors I have met are lean, and the females too for that matter. Thoughts like 'if he can't take care of himself, how the hell can he take care of me?' run through my mind. I'm probably making too much of it.

    The last episode is playing right now on MeTV. The entire 6-year run starts tomorrow morning with episode 1. I tend to like the early stuff with Larry Mondelo. And less dubbed laughter. lol
