    10 worst American produced cars

    Ford Pinto, Chevrolet Chevette, and Chevrolet Vega were as disposable as BIC lighters. America had a long hard time figuring out how to make a dependable economy car.

    Dad passed early this morning

    My condolences to you and your family. I lost my dad over 30 years ago but he taught me many wonderful things. As a teenager I had just rebuilt my first smallblock Mopar engine with the help of my dad and a Chrysler Service Manual. We fired it up for the first time, dialed in the timing and...

    650 horsepower from the factory

    I have a good friend that works at a Ford dealership. He said that many people trade in their Shelbys because they are simply too much car.

    Lost a friend today...

    I feel your pain. Dogs are simply amazing creatures. Do your Boston terrier a favor and adopt another friend, he'll love a new companion and it will do your heart good.

    A card for Marvin 70Dart sign it..

    I was thinking the same thing, if we continue to use the same card it will eventually be a big blurry copper blob. Is there a way to copy the signatures only to a fresh picture?

    Lp's and Vinyl Records

    You've got to love these old receivers, no equalizers or anything else needed, just hook up some good speakers and away you go. They are extremely responsive with their simple three bands of EQ and definitely loud enough to destroy your hearing. :D

    Bill Clinton's flight 93 memorial speech

    Whether you like Bill Clinton or not you have to admit that the speech he delivered for the flight 93 memorial was nothing short of masterful. I watched it live and was moved. If you haven't seen it yet please check it out, it's emotional, heartfelt, and inspirational. Please don't turn this...

    Who's in the path of Irene?

    We're safe and sound here in Va.. What a ride though, power has been out since Saturday around noon and it was just restored this evening. That was rather quick as there are still 300K without power. There are trees down everywhere and it seems to be worse as you drive towards Williamsburg and...

    Who's in the path of Irene?

    This storm dumped a lot of rain and experts said it would take 6 inches of rain to put out the Dismal Swamp fire. Well this should've done it! I don't want to downplay this storm because it still isn't out of here yet, but it was a lot less of everything than what we had expected and prepared...

    Who's in the path of Irene?

    So far, so good here. Besides not having power since noon today it has been a lot better than what we had expected. The power transformer exploded on the telephone pole just outside my house today. There's a tree limb (about a foot in diameter) down in my driveway but it did not hit any cars. We...

    Who's in the path of Irene?

    I'm right here on the southeastern coast of Virginia and hurricane Irene is headed right for us. We were going to head west to the mountains but I let my girlfriend talk me out of it. I'm such an idiot!!! I guess we are going to ride this one out, I know there will be flooding and trees down and...

    Anyone else lose interest?

    I have many interests, Mopar A-bodies is just one. I bounce around between them as my interest waxes and wanes.

    First car to 3 million miles? (this guy taught at my jr. high school)

    I've read somewhere that at one million miles Volvo offered to completely restore the vehicle. I believe this may be the car the article was regarding. If that's the case it may have been gone through at a million miles and perhaps again at 2 million miles. Imagine what it cost to drive 3...

    Man Stabs Puppy 5 Times

    We had a nut here that did a similar thing, stabbing his pet pit-bull with a sword. His neighbors reportedly saw him bag the dog and throw its body in a garbage can. He was arrested and charged with cruelty to animals. He had alcohol and mental problems. It's a shame that anybody can have a pet.

    So, who has taught you about cars?

    Chryslers Service Manual for 68 Dodge cars. I got one with my 68 GTS when I was a teenager. I still have what's left of that book today.
