I hope the side cutters was not awarded for 'CUTTING CORNERS' while the pliers did not stand out in the photo, the gold label did. You folks enjoy the festivities....grill up some long tail rabbits maybe...lol

shopping about is still the game you play based on initial cost plus shipping. You will need to buy your relay for secondary contacts (load)....what and where you buy is your call, search for solid state relay dc-dc....you will need to know your load amperage....or if unsure buy based on an overkill guess. Typically online these are available yet at about the same cost you will pay for a new Bosch style mechanical relay at the big box store...

at the gates in reply to St. Peter, honestly last thing I recall seeing is this green buffalo..!

I was making a reference to left Twix verse right Twix....either is the same

if this has you messed up...hope you are not planning on buying a shortbread cookie with chocolate and caramel

I understand the fact that a non, and I hate this word, restored, vehicle should not shine like new money and folks want that survivor look, (not to be confused with rusty patina) But a refinished vehicle, would be very hard pressed NOT to have the shine. Anyway, about any paint product line will offer an additive that will flatten the finish by the degree you are looking. If doing your own painting, this will be a mix and spray test to get that look, if farming out the paint to a shop, I do recommend you discuss this with them as to brand of paint and level of gloss. Many have been using X line of product for all their needs and some don't stray from their patent routine. Stay in his comfort zone for best results whatever the level of shine. PS that picture I do like, the little lady is so well framed within the opening of the rear glass.

typical female, putting up a big front...!

This is when a Rocon is nice to have about....

good shot of the pup.....he appears a bit camera shy.....

both deliver fuel....maintenance convenance and ease of finding a pump along the road if your electric goes out is much easier than finding a mechanical and could be all the difference on the trip home, on its own power or atop a flat top hauler. as an aside, many use the electric as a priming device and switch to mechanical once started....in doing this if in the event of mechanical failure you can still activate the electrical pump to continue driving.

this only shows lack of cleaning the finish as it should be done.....

finished the winch install....as I was unable to get a remote for the older model, I bought a new winch that is cable or remote. I also made the bracket base to the same dimensions of the other winch so either winch will work on either lift or the trailer. I also carried down from the overhead this shelf unit as I finally put my plan into action of putting the two walking foot sewing machines upstairs of the shop. I was about to chunk this when taking it apart I saw how quick and easy it would be to modify for the back wall on a barn bay.

my friend here is about 10 years older than I. He just sent me an e-mail that he bought a car yesterday from a much older gentleman. My friend was born 11/43 and the guy he bought the car from was born 5/43 so I guess at this age, months can used to define age....

I was tucking my flip phone out of sight....

that is taking St Patrick days to an extreme don't you think ? I have been known for a bit of green gas also....but of a slightly different variety....?

and this is not to laugh....I am a member of Hoarder Anon. well, at least I should be. Upstairs of the shop putting a bit of arrangement to the chaos and came across a small bag of lug nut cover caps I held in reserve should I ever lose on the Porsche. Flash forward, sold the car long ago, found it after about 28 years gone...bought it back...one of the lug nut caps is missing....so it pays to hold onto stuff.......this phenom is the hoarder's creedo...I am not or ever been in denial or defense...don't have time for non-believers...!!! Little ramble on a coffee break as I cannot stay focused long on cleaning before taking a break.

I told you in a PM this morning I was hit for a late fee of a car that also never had a title in GA and will never ever be issues a title in Georgia....but it was just a token amount, 5.00. Good to have this process behind you I know.....I know I am happy this one is registered and insured now. Will get the YOM tag confirmed over next week, weather just too nasty to be out and about today. Back to my regular schedule event, clearing the upstairs of the garage to move my two industrial sewing machines into. This project has been stalled for a long time. Installed a new servo motor for the newer unit so I control the rate of sew easier, never could get the hang of them clutch motors. The 50's model Singer, new needle bar and did a complete alignment only this time it has the proper needle in it also. It is sewing nicely now with heavy #69 thread...but the stitch is a bit herringbone look as the feed dog is an oscillating arm and not like later conventional rotary cam. Pic of the newer machine....I do not think I have one of the Singer 151W1

thanks, this is a Stude model....bit rough and an good twenty footer car but still happy to see it sitting about.

actually, riding to check on a GT6....spied this and took the opportunity for a photo shoot.....

thanks...if they need to copy this....they hurting in the R&D segment of the business and if this will boost them....let them grab the bone and run....just remember, you saw it here first....?

by these assumptions...one would go faster walking if they have a fairly late model car....forget that!!!!!

I will be adding a remote control to this unit when they get them back in stock. Like you, this winch is set up now for easy drop-on use at both my lifts and the dove tail car trailer. The winch itself if not in use is stored out of the way and protected in an easy to carry metal tool box. It is just a simple task to attach it securely at any of the three stations.

good deal.....nothing beats testing each item for sure.....

do not rule out master cylinder internal bypassing which is the key symptom you describe with the light pedal pressure and pedal going to the floor...if you pump and hold really hard pressure here and it stay up...confirmed...!

I had long been putting this off and I am about to move a car onto the lift that is how we say non driveable. I have an open-end alignment lift and as such nothing to connect a winch...so I fabricated this set up today and I am please with the outcome and feel very comfortable with its ability to do the job. The unit is two piece and one section slides into the runway supports and the other then sets over and locks into the first piece and secure with a couple bolts and this will transfer any torque to the runway rolling jack rails. This will make it so very easy to get in-op cars onto the lift. The approach ramps are short and rather steep and the runways being an alignment lift are 9.5 inches off the concrete...pushing on even a small car is killer bee...
