    Check out my Christmas present!

    I bought the lift for myself for Christmas! I am such a nice guy. Turned my 2 car garage into a 3 car garage. Trying to convince the wife to buy another one for her bay! She wants an old Beetle and wants to put a turbo on it. We could leave her Beetle on the lift and park her Flex under it!

    Made a garage stool for the Father in law....

    Since I work in a steel mill I found these parts in a scrap steel pile waiting to be melted. The base is a flywheel with a cam shaft as the post. The seat is a steel tractor seat and there are two brake rotors and two connecting rods with a 3/4" wrench for the foot rest. Strange things come...

    My TC is in need of replacement and I'm not sure what converter to go with. I am running alky. I don't take it to the track but I do use every one of the horses that it produces. I am planning on putting a TA49 in it when the factory turbo dies on me. I might put a little bit more of a cam...

    Another dumba$$ comment heard!

    Was driving home from the HRPT and was in Bloomington IL. We pulled in to eat at KFC and a guy in a truck pull in behind in the parking lot and said his brother own #551! So I assume he means a GNX not a GN so I told him they only made 547 GNX's. He said his brother owns #551 GN. I just...

    This is the first time I have had this issue with the car. Over the past winters when I go out to start the car during the winter it fired right up. This year it has been dead twice. The battery was bad last summer and I replaced it. The only thing that has changed is last summer I put the...

    Monte Carlo message board is a PITA!

    My father in law has a 87 Aerocoupe and I need to look into some info for him. I went on their site and signed up yesterday! Still don't have access to the site. My account hasn't be approved yet. The kicker is that if you don't log on within 24hrs your account will be removed.
