    NEBRA BBQ 2012

    Next year we should be back in Weston. That should be a little closer for you. At least that is the plan.

    NEBRA BBQ 2012

    Well, I have been out of the Buick scene for a while and I'm hoping to get back in full force next year. I used to hold the NEBRA BBQs in Weston in the past but just haven't been able to for the last couple of years, but will be holding one this year. This year it is not in Weston though, so...

    Wanted 1980 Regal Aluminum Hood

    They did make aluminum hoods for the Regals. I know because I have one for my waGoN. You can pick it up with one finger. Much lighter than even the fiberglass ones. Sorry, but it's not for sale.

    Carburetor Plug?

    That would be the throttle position sensor. They can break easy. Try putting a tester on it and move the throttle to see if it reads properly.

    Burglerized!!

    We had that in my neighborhood and it was just punk kids running around finding unlocked cars and taking stuff probably so they could buy more iTunes. Cops caught them walking down the railroad tracks one night. Hmmm, didn't school just get out for the Summer? No curfew for these jerks I bet...

    My t-type has a v-8.

    If it is an 8 from the factory, then that just means a little more work. Trust me it isn't that hard to hybridize (made up word). If a donor vehicle can be found, then that is the best way to do it.

    My t-type has a v-8.

    T-Type was a trim package. It doesn't necessarily mean it was a turbo. Some came with V-8s. Sometimes you'll see someone trying to sell one saying how rare it is. What is the engine code? (8th digit in the vin)

    3800 Interference?

    Pull all of the plugs, and then try it. How many miles? My wifes 98 Lesabre died on her right around 100,000 miles. The plastic intake manifold on those melts where the EGR pipe comes into it, and antifreeze leaks into the intake and hydro locks the motor. If that is what happened, you'll...

    Your best pick up line...rattle em off

    Ok, here is one I used before. There was this girl that I worked with. Everyone could see that we got along, so they were trying to get us together. Once everyone around you starts pushing, it makes it difficult to actually do something about it, but at break, I asked if she wanted to go to a...

    Your best pick up line...rattle em off

    You should have asked him which Denny's he worked at and asked if he'd comp the meal.

    Are bodymen our friends or not?

    Cut your losses and get out while you can. Talk to people in your area and find someone reputable. If you can, have the car brought right from his shop to theirs.

    Aerosmith looking for a NEW front man

    Joe Perry is the one that came up with the name Aerosmith, I believe. I also believe that he came up with the name before he had even met Steven Tyler, and before he even had a band together. So, I'd say he gets to keep it.

    What is the best anti theft device i can get for my car

    The GPS and Lojack are good, but if you want to keep it from getting stolen, then pick two anti-theft devices. A chip with the anti-theft feature, a starter kill, something to disable one of the important sensors (crank/cam), fuel pump kill switch.......etc.If they figure out the first, then...

    Opinions on this car?

    He says 1 owner car but he got it 11 years ago, unless this add is 11/12 years old, then that would make this one the second owner. He says made especially for a GM exe, I'm thinking that the exec just ordered it just like any regular customer could. ASC probably put the sunroof put in.

    Towing GN with a tow dolly

    Try to get a trailer if you can. If you do use a dolly, be careful turning sharp corners like say in a parking lot. I did this once, and dented the door to my GN. The platform that the cars wheels sit on pivots. When you cut the wheel hard, the light on the fender sticks out and can dent your...

    World's tallest building

    I read something about it yesterday. They said the rooms in the top floors are too small, they can only be used for storage.....a half mile in the sky for storage. Also, it pointed out that every time a toilet near the top is flushed, water needs to be pumped up a half mile. I don't know, at...

    your thoughts on this diamond in the ruff

    It looks like that GN was the possum's personal playground. There are foot prints all over the hood and windshield. I'd bet that the dirt didn't protect the paint as much as it scratched it every time that little bugger went out for his morning walk. It looks like the little guy filled the...

    spurts of water from tail pipe

    Fix the leak, and watch to see if the level drops. Even without bad head gaskets it may continue to drop for a while if you have air in the system. Does the exhaust smell sweet? No, the water coming out wouldn't be green. It would have to be a MAJOR leak for that. If it is clear, and you...
