Since they're down for a while, this would be a good time to do what you like to do Thomas. Clean them and then powder coat.:thumbup: It's kinda your thing after all.:D

That gas station looks like one in Godley near DFW. Did you happen to see where it is? Nice piece of wood there Thomas. I see some sapwood in it which can be problematic when finishing though. If you want to add more figure to it stain it with some ebony and completely cover it so it's black...

I got a nice little package the other day and forgot to say thanks Thomas. It is a Holley unit. The writing was very small but it's exactly what I need to keep the pressure down to 4.5 psi so I don't flood the Q-jet out.

PM sent, and thanks Thomas.:rocker:

If you decide to get rid of the old regulator you can send it my way Thomas. I picked up a NASCAR Buick V6 pump for my car and it pushes close to 20 PSI to the carb.:willy_nil That's just a bit more than I need, unless I want to see a major flooding event like we had this spring.:eyecrazy: These...

Since you already have a cap that's tapped for a ******, and it looks like you have enough room, you should add a 45 degree ****** and mount an actual remote reservoir for the brake reserve. You could hide it but it would make it easier to check the fluid level when you need to.

A couple of tricks that will help you later Thomas. If you've got a distributor wrench with a connector in the middle so you can change position, the center part is usually a 3/8" square. Works great on square head bolts. One other trick is to heat the item up that's seized. Then use part of an...

I see you're still being a comodian Thomas:lol_hitti:thumbup: Just don't get to flushed with success.:willy_nil:lol:

Re: Update On Repairs On Gus I'm shocked and disappointed in you Thomas.:scared: No powder coating?:headscrat What's happened to the king of powder coating?:confused: Has Chris called a doctor in to make sure you're ok?:lol_hitti

I believe it was around 1776 Pete.:D

You forgot the third reason.:willy_nil All time has stopped and the world has ended.:lol_hitti:fingersx:

Congrats to both of you and if you want a good rib recipe for the next event you have just say so. You can also do brisket the same way and it comes out so tender the meat falls apart. Just did some short ribs and have been enjoying them this weekend. If you've got a smoker you only need to...

If you use Dawn then it will flush out as soon as the system is clean.:thumbup: It will also leave it smelling nice.:lol:

When you get to the point of flushing the system out use dawn dishwashing liquid. I had it recommended to me once and had a really nasty car to do. I couldn't believe it did more than the normal flush you buy, but it did. I actually saw chunks of rust and all kinds of **** come out of the system...

Keep an eye on your temps Thomas. Not sure about the early vettes but on later cars this can cause an overheating issue since the heater core is considered part of the cooling system and cutting it out reduces the cooling of the engine.

Do a search for Gimp2 Thomas. It's a photo editing program that's free and it does a whole lot more, including animation. It's much simpler than the other programs so it should be easy for you to use.

Whitworth standard was also the thread designation for German battle rifle threads where the barrel screwed into the receiver from 1870 until after WWII. Mauser was the one manufacturing them at the time, or they were under contract to other countries through Mauser. While the threads were a...

I would've loved to get tools when I was a kid. All I ever seemed to get was clothes that were in bad taste for some reason.:shocking: You have a son that you can be proud of sir, and I wish more were like him.:thumbup:

I hope that all have a very happy Christmas and an excellent new year.xmas:drink:

You need to kill off the grubs and bugs in the yard so the moles don't have anything to eat.:thumbup::beer:
