Ed there is a Scottish band that plays Rock or something but on the traditional instruments, Red Hot Chilli Pipers!!. What is a good ecletic CD is the Juno sound track. I love the Carpenter's song "Super Star" by Sonic Youth!! What ever excites you is good music. You should "feel better than James Brown" was not was. Eric

You can also use this site to guess-timate the value of your old tubes. Some tubes even used can be valuable. To get best prices they have to be NOS or have been tested. Good Luck Eric

I listen to NPR during daylight hours but shift to a wide selection of music later. I have Sirius satelite. I like Garage Rock w/ Lil' Steven. Sirius Disorder Ch. 70 which will be Celtic to Opera to Jazz to Rock. I have been listening to some hot 60s Salsa, Joe Cuba (bang Bang). "If It ain't got that Swing it don't mean a Thing!" Latest Rock Listening is Love. For those who don't like Rap try a little Gnarles Barkley "St. Elsewhere". Eric

Hey what's in a name? A re-welcoming to you. Those are some different bumper over rides on your car. Do you have a hawaiian theme going on in the interior? Eric

I didn't know you were in Yellow Springs. I don't know what state that is in. Welcome to the forum. You are not alone in leaving out where you are posting from. Knowing where people are from helps me to keep things straight . I guess I am just snoopy!!

I like the junk yard photos. No yards like that around here that I know of. There seems to be a nice red Volvo there. Probably loads of rust. Eric

Congrats John, eruc

Andyd, I checked you web site briefly. Some cool stuff. The Aussie car scene is like something from a different planet. To the outsider it is really strange. There are cars with American Names but are not like anything here. I imagine it is a world unto itself. There must be some highly desirable Aussie cars,something akin to our Mustangs and Camaros. Thanks for the link. Eric

Arthur, great attention to detail. Good Looking!! Eric

Thanks, Don. Hmm that name seems familiar.

53Kustom in a previous thread has had his car up to 90. Even though this was down hill and he has an overdrive. I am curious who has gone the fastest? I am not encouraging anyone to break the law!! We have a member who has taken his the the Flats. I don't recall the name or speed. Eric

greg, very cool site. I love the cars but am a fan of the Modern. Great stuff. Eric

Joe, that is looking good. Eric

http://parentseyes.arizona.edu/militarynoseart/ww2-3.htm good pictures and info here. Eric

post a pic when you get time. Your 48 is nice but I understand about the air. Eric

Looking good. I like the black. Eric

I have not followed it since you last posted about it. The guy has some fortitude. Eric

The dry ice is the blast media, little pellets of it. That is what I understood. Eric

Here is a link to cleaning the underside of cars using dry ice. Even though it is in German, it is pretty straight forward. For USA content picture #16 shows 'Vice grips" invented about 30 miles from here I believe by a Nebraska Farmer (probably of German descent).

Yea, 15s. It is in the garage usually or out on the road. You should knock on my door. Eric

Kevin, Are there any rims? I need or want an older style for my spare. Eric

We found an older John Deere pedal tractor at a garage sale. It needed a little work but we paid $10.00 for it. I was cleaning it up and a neighbor kid who saw it said how much he loved John Deere stuff etc. So I sold it to his Mom for the $10.00. I kept fixing it going all summer for him. He decides that he should sell it so he can get a new bike. We help him list it in the paper's free section , no cost ads. He was asking 60.00 for it. He tells me a guy is coming in a few days to buy it. The next day he tells me someoneelse has called and has offered him 80.00. I tell him that I think he has to sell it to the first guy for 60.00 because he gave his word. Of course he sells to the secong guy and doesn't bother to tell the first man that it is sold , so he wastes his time driving 25 miles to get it. The kid doesn't get why the gentleman was upset. His Mom told him I was just upset because we didn't make the money off of it. What can you do? No good deed goes unpunished. Eric

I am just now getting your name!! I thought it was some crazy Aussie Lingo about fishing : "Bass". Yea like others have said "keep in touch". Eric

I am semi-retired, which I think means I don't earn much. No, insurance. Years ago, I had a policy with a 10K deductable. Things were tight so I dropped it. I probably could not get insurance on my own. I have what seems like enough saved to generate an income to live on but it isn't enough to "Live ON" if I got some terrible illness. So, my options would be to lose all in order to keep breathing or to exit with something still in my pocket. I probably should not have answered this!! I have never discussed this with anyone not even family. I doubt that I am alone. I am sure there are plenty of people in the same boat. I like doctors but I don't think they are worth 500 times an hour than a skilled craftsman, carpenter, machinist, etc. Thinking this won't prove anything! Except I would be dead with my money intact. Who said life is fair?
