Yesterday I installed new pads & rotors on the front of the Camaro. The nagging grinding noise finally got to me. The sparks at night were kind of cool though...

I've heard Minto Pinto a lot. Any Thunder or Firebird was shortened to "the 'bird". Any of mom's recent cars have been converted to Grand Ma from an old Grand Am logo. But the most famous of my cars was the Deer Slayer. My first car was an '80 Mustang coupe in red, which was mashed in the ...

The Power of Cool Cars

Yesterday, Mark had planned to stop by my work to pick up money for the tiresmoke hats I distributed for him. In our conversation, I mentioned taking the used '05 Mustang GT for a spin while he was here. After a 120mph shot up Rt.44 near headlands beach, and a holeshot in front of his neighbor's hou...

In Photoshop, it says my picture is 5kb. That's what was ticking me off. I'll have to mess with it later.

It's amazing how well the new air dam works. Before having it on, the temperature would cycle up and down all the time, with the electric fans always coming on and off. Tonight I put it on the car, and amazingly enough, the air is directed through the radiator, and under a normal drive for about 10 ...

That's such a cool car. You definitely need to start racking up the miles. You should post some info on the Miata too.

1975 Honda CB550E

Yes it's true, I'm (half) owner of a motorcycle. My brother in law (Matt) and I went in on this bike. We bought it for $600. The one carb leaks slightly out the overflow tube so I'm guessing there's a bad float. The good thing is that it's the outside carb so I don't think I'll have to remove it. We...

Looks like it's ready for the drags! Nice to have you here Bill.
I was talking to a guy at work the other day who restores 57's for fun. He said he has lots of spare parts so I got his name and number for you. I'll post it here tomorrow.

So the right front lower control arm now has all new bushings and lower ball joint. The Camaro badges have been added (pictures coming), and the EGR valve has been properly cleaned and has now kept the Service Engine Soon light off for more than three days (YEAH). It might need a little more suspens...
