Did this Monday... I hated the top boot (a stiff vinyl), so I purchased a nice Robins Stayfast boot). I cut the old boot so it covers the top while the hardtop is on so sun coming in through the rear window won't damage the inside of the top. A couple straps and voilà, a hardtop lift...

Back when I lived at my folks' house and had to park my motorcycle outside, I would spray everything (chrome, metal, paint) with WD-40 before covering it for the winter. Come spring, I'd give it a good wash with S-100 (great cleaner/degreaser that will not hurt paint or vinyl). No rust or corrosion!

Just had a thought... I have a stick built roof (rafters, not trusses) with 2X6 ceiling joists and a central supporting wall. I want to get rid of the supporting wall. Could I sister the joists with Douglas Fir 2X10s to achieve a 24' span? We have no storage in the attic.

Wood burning, please. If I wanted to watch my furnace, I'd go sit in the utility room.

"Columbia Vise Dating Help!" There are so many ways this could be taken wrong...

Couldn't stop to retrieve it as there was too much traffic, but we passed a nice looking ballpein hammer in Knoxville, yesterday.

Metric started in on American cars in the early 80s, maybe late 70s.

If memory serves correctly, yes. It's been a few minutes since I was a MAC dealer.

Just a quick bit of interesting information, I believe those boxes were made by Kennedy.

MATCO split from MAC in 1979.

Whatever they might have said it means, the origins of MATCO is "Mac Allied Tool Company." They were the half of MAC Tools which brought in the rebranded stuff before they split from MAC.

I had a used engine/transmission take a journey around the country to get from Kentucky to Tennessee.

Anyone purchased a used stand by generator? We're live in a rural area and trees, idiots, and other issues seem to regularly take out our power. My wife has MS and needs A/C, plus she works from home. What sort of things should I be looking for? Anything I should avoid? Or is this just a...

I'm gathering what I need to put a Duratec 3.7 V6 (from a 2012 Mustang) and the corresponding 6-speed manual into a 1987 Mustang. I have the factory ECM and original wiring harness, but I'm thinking of running the Holley Terminator system and either an ITB set up ro a custom, 2-throttle manifold.

What are you using for engine management on your various builds?

I have to admit, when I saw the title, I thought it would be a TV show with Jackie Chan and Ferrari. :oops: :LOL:

I'll take "What is Legionnaire's Disease?" for $400, Alex.

Priced Snap On? Cornwell has never been good at their fliers. I don't think they've ever printed on without some sort of typo. I think they have the executives kids make them.

All their ratchets fall under the same heading "Ohio Made" in the 2023 catalog.

There is a reason I stopped being a dealer... They were good at telling me all they were "doing" for me, but when I could buy the exact same tool from a warehouse, sell it for less, and make more money, it just got to me. For some reason, they seemed to think slapping the Cornwell name and...
