Someone from England is considering making a bid to purchase my Valiant. I wonder how much he/she would have to pay to ship it there from California. Anyone have experience with the cost of such an arrangement? Thank you, just curious for now (shipping responsibility of the buyer).

Ebay recommends not using PayPal to buy/sell vehicles because the paypal guarantee does not apply to large items like vehicles. PayPal recommends an escrow service. So I went to escrow.com to find the online registration for a vehicle sale requires a VIN with no less than 11 digits. Our 1965...

When I graduated in California from high school in June 1973 I went to work (for the next 20 months) at a Chevron station while attending Community College (Auto Technology classes mostly). I was always paid minimum wages which were $1.65 hour during 1973 and then $2.00 after that. Oh, I worked...

The first scene (an ambush) seems pretty real.

In the '80's my female partner in the United States Border Patrol was issued a mini-14 (by request) the day we chased down a vehicle entering the United States from Mexico at Anapra. We chased the vehicle which was headed toward El Paso. It doubled back and spun out a few yards from the...

I fly to Sacramento tomorrow night, arriving near midnight. Then still need to clear customs (arriving from Mexico) and rent a car. Trying to find the real phone number for a nearby hotel/motel but only can find corporate 800 reservation numbers. Very frustrating. Don't want to find the hotel...

Even a kid can do it:

About ten minutes ago my Doberman (on leash as always) and I were out for our evening walk. We were attacked by two dogs in El Centenario on Calle Cuarta between Palo Fierro and Cardon (We live in Mexico near La Paz the finish line of the Baja 1000). This is about the fourth time now in the last...

I just posted a seven year old, 17 foot RV trailer for sale on facebook marketplace. Ten minutes later I rv'd my first so-called response: "Is this still available?. Well, duh, I just posted it minutes ago! I heard somewhere awhile back that responses like that are not genuine, although I don't...

Watch it here:

Saw Ford Mustangs and Mercury Cougars coming down the same assembly line circa 1967. The assembly plant is now "The Great Mall of the Bay Area". Anyone else tour an assembly plant back then?

Some of these images may be "false memories", meaning maybe I got them mixed up with dreams (or real scenarios in other places/times). Regardless, this is what I can put together now at the ripe old age of 68. 1) I attended kinder from Fall 1960 to Spring of 1961 at Bagby Elementary in San...

We have two very heavy steel gates at the entrance to our property in Mexico. They meet in the middle and each have a pair sturdy cast iron 4" wheels that ride along angle iron (angle iron is set in concrete along the bottom). Over the last 10-12 years the bottom portion of both gates began to...

Frustrating things happening in the garden this Spring. First off, the recently planted Guava from the nursery had two stalks, one just shriveled up for no good reason (see photo one-shriveled stalk on the left, still healthy looking stalk on the right). Secondly, after watering two new plants...

Kept me entertained, kind of like an analog video game.

I saw these as a kid burning alongside road construction projects at night.

Why did they let him get away so many times?

Complicated but it works!

Does anyone know of any shoes that still have the simple "waffle" pattern on the bottom of the shoe tread? Could be for walking, running, or cross-training, just don't care as long as they don't pick up stuff in the cracks. I'm getting tired of tracking in gravel and small pebbles inside the...

Kiddy show back in '50's & '60's.

Anyone have luck with the "all natural" product that solves all of our male prostate quirks?

I purchased his book a couple of years ago. He hasn't logged on since summer of 2020. I wonder what he is up to these days: Bob 'Turk' Tarozzi

I hope he has life insurance.
