    The blind cowboy at an all blonde bar

    An old, blind cowboy wanders into an all-girl biker bar by mistake. He finds his way to a bar stool and orders some coffee. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the waiter, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?" The bar immediately falls absolutely silent. In a very deep, husky voice...

    The "El GTO"

    I met a gentleman yesterday who is a retired automotive restorer. We got to chatting and I asked about some of his cars, and one of them he calls his "El GTO." It's an El Camino with a GTO front clip. We've all seen cars with mis-matched parts as custom jobs, and personally, I think most of them...

    Time for another beer

    I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer. The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking. My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing, and I said, "Nothing." The reason I said "nothing" instead of saying "just thinking" is...

    How should I prep for a color change over existing good paint?

    Hey all, this is not for a Mopar, so I apologize in advance. I'm helping a neighbor replace her busted up door and fender, so we found some parts at the junkyard. Her car is red, the replacement door is light blue, and the replacement fender is white. My question is what's the process for...

    Solicitor repellant

    My neighborhood has two entrances, both with signs stating "NO SOLICITORS." Of course that doesn't stop 'em, so I put up a sign on my door politely requesting privacy. They ignore it. After growing tired of being nice and then not so nice, I needed a better plan. So, I bought a bear horn...

    What do you look for in a forklift?

    I'll keep it short. I've dreamed of having a forklift for quite some time, but it was always just a "want." As time passed, the "want" has grown into a "need." So, having never owned or even operated a forklift, I've decided to once again reach out to the brain trust here. I'll use the forklift...

    Seeking advice on applying clear powder coat

    Howdy FABO, I've been trying to learn how to powder coat lately. I've had some pretty good success with opaque colors on sand blasted parts, but this last project gave me fits. My Pops turns pens as a hobby, and usually he applies CA glue as a durable and glossy clear coat, but it's tedious and...

    "Koul Tools" AN hose assembly tool - indispensable or gimmick?

    Several years ago, I picked up this used set of AN hose assembly tools, and typical to my tool hoarding fashion, threw them on a shelf and forgot about them. The few times I've assembled braided lines, it went okay, but I'm definitely not 100% proficient. It's tough for me to get nice, clean...

    Phase converter going in

    My lathe is a 3 phase machine, as are my pedestal grinder and surface grinder. I had originally planned to run them off of a 6HP rotary transformer, but then things changed. I found a deal on a rotary screw compressor that I couldn't pass up, also 3 phase. However, it's a 25HP unit. So I found...

    Mystery bolt ID help

    Can anyone help identify these bolts? I set them aside and forgot to label them, and I think it was during a front end rebuild on my ‘74 E body. They are 1-3/4”, 7/16 x 20. I’m guessing whatever kit I bought came with new replacement bolts, that’s why I didn’t use these. Any help is appreciated!

    Trailer deck preference: wood or diamond plate?

    I recently "upgraded" from a 16' utility trailer to an 18' car hauler. It's got a wooden deck and diamond plate drive overs. The wood is in very decent condition, I shouldn't have to think about replacing it for several years. I know lots of people prefer diamond plate decks, but why? Is there...
