Ya watching this vacation slide show was like the storyboard for Cars. Congrats on the trip, everyone has this one on the bucket list yet few cross it off. C7 is quite a versatile device, can move 2 people and gear in great comfort or act like Lighting McQeen. Wouldn't count on the dash map...

I tried to contact Pensive Scribe a couple of times via PM but messages do not show in the "sent messages". I suspect his post count might be too so I am posting here regarding Beltsville Shell schedule. I have been in contact with jbmatth, he will be sending BS to me when he is done. I will...

I just have a couple of comments on then upcoming test. Although the projects at the 1930's Auto Shop compound will never be complete, surely a good time for the test might be after the completion of the house and you have had some time to settle in. It will be difficult to please all with how...

Thought I would start the new year off right by perusing all the excellent shop setups you guys have. I am currently working out of a 20' X 18' residential attached garage and it's not really working for me. In the winter months, I use my garage to shelter 2 summer-only cars, so emergency...
