    Except in taxachusettes you have to pay sales, excise and title fee.

    Recomendation on portable garage

    Thanks for the recommendations. I can't put a storage container in my yard. I did think about a small used car hauler, but they are still $2000 & up from the few listings I saw. Other problem is the car is just roller, so would need to trailer it if I was going off site. If I didn't need...

    Recomendation on portable garage

    I need to store one of my project cars outside for the winter. I live in New England & as you may know we had almost of 10' of snow here last year! A banner year. Normally 3-5', but it can sometimes be wet & heavy. One of my big issues is I am on the coast (1000' from the ocean), so wind can...

    Thanks; car is set up for Euro ride height, amazing, that it never has any wheel rub. Car is basically bone stock with exception of SSI stainless headers and Carerra T chain updates. Just turned 100k and runs like a champ. Top end was rebuilt about 20k ago according to my records from PO which...

    My garage resto finally complete!

    A few months ago my bride insisted that now that the house was done; 3 years of remodeling that it was time for a garage facelift. 15 years of "stuff" was everywhere, so being that we are in New England I couldn't just leave it all outside. So we packed everything up in our utility trailer and...

    Craftsman C3 19.2-Volt Cordless 1/2" Wrench Kit-Experience

    Ended up buying the C3 with lithium, actually cheaper than buying the nicad & the smart charger and a lithium battery. So, I'm kind of surprised there is no torque release for tightening? It's really best for removing stubborn bolts/nuts. I have bad tennis elbow for about a year and the...

    Craftsman C3 19.2-Volt Cordless 1/2" Wrench Kit-Experience

    Not sure why the standard charger won't work. Is it because feedback on percent charge doesn't register properly? Volts are volts, amps are amps.. Anyone using the standard charger & lithium?

    Craftsman C3 19.2-Volt Cordless 1/2" Wrench Kit-Experience

    Yea, they have the lithium on sale an I have a $10 coupon. I'll pick one of those up. Darn, should have bought lithium last month when I replaced a dead one for my drill, only $10 more! Thanks all.

    Craftsman C3 19.2-Volt Cordless 1/2" Wrench Kit-Experience

    I ordered this yesterday; despite some complaints of battery life. I have a drill that used the same nicads batteries, just bought a new battery. So, rather than firing up the compressor everytime I need to loosen something I was wondering if anyone else had experience with this unit. BTW, I...

    craftsman jack parts NLA..

    I have a 15 yo 1-1/2 ton craftsman jack that I think needs new seals. Fluid full and will not prime or lift at all. Sears shows parts NLA for this model. Any thoughts on where to get seals? FYI, I have not disassembled yet. Thanks

    Hydronic Garage Heaters

    HI Mfbruno: I am looking to do exactly the same thing. We just had a high efficiency oil burner installed in our garage 2 years ago. We have enough btu's for an extra zone. My plumber said the Modine runs about $800 + $600 +/- to install. He said I can buy the heater and hang it and he will...
