Safety comes first but your heath is a close second. GOOD HEALTH TO YOU ALL! (Quaffs ritual glass of carrot juice.)

Most will probably know what this car is........
Ulu replied to BobT-47P15's topic in Off Topic (OT)
I've been in quite a few Checkers, but never wanted to own one. But now, what with Uber, it might be fun. -
Ely? Oh man! That's America's Loneliest Highway there.
-
LOL...turn on the captions too....

It wasn't as bad after you guys shut down Don's Discount Colonoscopy Clinic.
-
You can lay the Optima on its side, so it doesn't short on the seat, & it won't leak anything; but still cover the terminals so it doesn't short on something random.

I run anti-sway bars front and rear & I wouldn't have it any other way.

If I can read correctly, it has an RCA TV out jack, so that means you can record to a VCR or DVR. If your PC has a TV in jack, you can record to that too.

Trabant? My God! Probably the only worse car was the Datcha (Sorry...Dacia. I can't spell... ) Even a Yugo was better.
-
Me neither, since 1972, when I slid one across a wet intersection on the floorboard. It was a Lambretta, which was prettier, but still a deathtrap at any speed where a sudden radical maneuver was required.

If it's not, let us hope that Mrs T. doesn't see this photo....

I owned a Schwinn Tornado in the 60's. The bike in the photo is a Schwinn Typhoon frame, which is slightly different, but it appears to have the earlier tornado style front sprocket. BTW, the drawer-pull grillework is unbelievable. I don't believe anybody should be quite that tacky.

In the South Western corner of far North Dakota I found a strange creature they call the Iota But I know I'll find an Iota much finer In the North Eastern corner of South Carolina.... (My apologies to TGS)

"Ya doity rat!"

Looks like you lucked out. I sure wish I had. My daughter called me one day to say her battery was dead. It was not. The cam was just so galled the starter would barely turn the engine.

At work we say we get 90% of the money for 10% of the headaches, and 10% of the money for the other 90%. Too bad 90% is not a passing grade in real life. They expect engineers to do 100% of the work.

I'm not that fond of the body, but I love the Buick grille. Good show!
-
I'm supposed to be on vacation next week myself, but it won't be nearly so glorious as this trip. That's fer dang sure. Nice Photos Paul. I haven't ridden behind a horse in a coons age.

You might actually take the cover off the regulator & look inside to see how rusty it is. Remove the battery ground strap first so you don't short the innards with the cover. Running a clean dollar bill through the regulator points can help clean off what's making them sticky, if the points are not too burned/pitted/corroded. If you file them square, they will be clean & not stick, but the regulator adjustment will be thrown off. (Before deciding to file regulator points, read the adjustment procedure in the manual. You may decide against it.)
-
I also had this jumpy ammeter thing happen when the ground wire on the battery came loose while driving. ...but yours sounds like a sticky regulator alright.
-
I'm amazed you have 170,000 on this engine. I'd patch it up and sell it fast. It made OK power for its size, but they've never been well regarded or considered durable.
-
"Is" is true, but I said "was." Times have changed. There's no Chrysler any more. Just Fake Fiats. But there was a time that it was special.
-
Well, clearly you've read Title 24.
-
Hah! You'd might as well try to convince me that Chrysler was "just another company". Not gonna happen.
-
Fun stuff, but not legal at all here. Total violation of the CCR title 24 regulations regarding access requirements of restroom fixtures..
