    A visit to Stephen's Performance

    Keep in mind that people have the ability to greatly improve their attitude and friendliness when it is to their benefit to do so($$$).

    A visit to Stephen's Performance

    Even though you were somehow able to be a fly on the wall and know exactly how the visit went down, I'll take the time to transcribe how the interaction went down on my end: Younger Guy: "How's it going?" Me: "Hey guys, how are ya'll?" Younger Guy: "Good, what can I help you with?" Me: "Well...

    A visit to Stephen's Performance

    I considered doing that, then I decided that they probably get so many window shoppers calling them that they for sure wouldn't give me the time of day. I wanted to see how they reacted to a cash-paying customer in front of them.

    A visit to Stephen's Performance

    I thought I would share my experience visiting the Mopar Mecca that is about 30 minutes from my house. To preface, this isn't a hate post, i don't know the people and I don't sell parts to compete with them. To begin with, if you've never been to this place and you have a vision of nearly...

    Del, are you OK?

    I wouldn't wish anything bad on him but past that, it wouldn't bother me if he NEVER came back. He can be a nasty, nasty person via PM, "behind the scenes". I'm one person he won't talk down to, ever. I figure he lost his motivation once Slant Six dan returned.

    It never fails...

    Sold a decent 318/904 combo back in the summer for next to nothing. Took the Dart out today on it's first drive over 40 mph since I put it all together only to realize quick that 3rd gear is nearly gone in the original 904:banghead: Oh well, I guess this is enough of a reason as any to go...

    2nd car opinions

    I drive hundreds of miles per month and the best all around car I ever had was a 2005 Honda Accord. Perfect mix of fuel economy and room. You could probably find an '03-04 in your budget easily. From driving plenty of other stuff over the years: Driven a few Mazda Protege's and they are super...

    Identifying furniture wood by it's grain

    Thanks for the help. Mahogany it is. For what it's worth, my digital camera will not take pictures that close up, period. Perhaps if I had lighting, a gaffer, a sound man, a director, catering and a publicist these videos would be more polished and less health-issue inducing. For now, they are...

    Identifying furniture wood by it's grain

    If this thing was all "morning wood" I would be keeping it. Stay tuned for a better, updated and improved video in the next hour or so. This time I want an answer!! LOL, just kidding.

    Road kill videos

    I watch Roadkill every month without fail. The guys work well together. "Where does this fuel line go?" "Where would you like it to go?"

    Identifying furniture wood by it's grain

    LOL, you guys are always a lot of help and very amusing at the same time...morning wood:D Anyway, this stereo cabinet is of unknown origin. It came into my family's possession in the late 1970's when my father purchased it from a co-worker at Redstone Arsenal here in Huntsville. The backstory...

    Identifying furniture wood by it's grain

    Haha, had to do that eh? Anyway, the camera couldn't handle that level of detail so I made a video which should work better. Can someone identify this wood? - YouTube

    Identifying furniture wood by it's grain

    Hey guys: I have a stereo cabinet dating from the late '60's-early '70's that came from overseas. It is handmade of solid wood. It is supposed to be constructed of a certain wood, but I'd like a second opinion. If I post some photos of the grain, can some of you that work with wood make...

    Real-world motorcycle value

    Hey guys: I have a friend who is considering selling his motorcycle. He's 63 and no longer confident of his ability to handle it. I'm not a motorcycle guy, so I'm going on what he told me: 1998 V-Star 1100. He didn't recall how many miles. I know he didn't ride at all last summer and now it...

    Two cars with six skeletons pulled from Oklahoma lake

    Good Lord....sitting there in that car for 43 years.... If you poke around on google maps, there are several roads in the area of that boat ramp, so I can see where it would be easy to think they were on the main road when they weren't, and then full speed right into the water. What a...

    What the heck kind of car is this?

    I don't know, but I like it. I was watching a video of a car show and this car drove by with no caption as to what it was. I don't recognize it and couldn't find anything like it after searching. I wonder if it's a Canadian vehicle, because the show was just south of Vancouver, WA. It's a...

    Cliff I dont know

    You don't have to un-friend people to take a break. Un-friending is making a "point". Hope the guy is alright.

    Gotta love them Russian drivers!

    Here's one: Over here the truck would be drowned and the driver sitting on the bank calling on his cell phone for help. A Russian tractor driver refuses to give up after his vehicle gets stuck in a river. - YouTube

    Colorado town considers bounty on shot down drones

    Steering this somewhat back on topic: It surprises me at the lack of concern people seem to have with the level of surveillance that is going on in this country by our own government. I know that people tend to shrug off any reference to "1984" but how many of you have actually read that...

    This really ticks me off

    If they can't get in the hood they'll just do something else like cut a line or a tire. You need a camera like the deercam that has been mentioned. If you catch someone on your property committing vandalism, they go to jail. Of course if you haven't been Mr. Innocent then I guess that idea...

    Tracking my cars history

    Yeah...don't worry about it, that's easier. Actually, are you wanting to know where it was sold, or it's previous owners or what? I don't think we have the resources in the Mopar world that the Pontiac and Ford guys do as far as taking the VIN and finding out all it's selling info, at least...

    Customer bought an eBay Range Rover sight unseen

    I like Isuzu cars and trucks, at least before they turned into re-badged late-model Chevrolets. They are a world-class diesel engine manufacturer. And remember...it's s then z. Not s and s or z and z. Around here you won't see a Land Rover that actually runs unless it's one of the new ones...

    A-body old cold start (video)

    Hey guys: I picked up a clean '74 Valiant a couple months ago from CL cheap. Nice, mostly solid car, 2 owners. The catch was it didn't run. Hadn't ran in about 15 years. Non-Mopar enthusiasts had attempted to get it going again and failed. That's where I stepped in. It had no spark. The...

    New Car Shopping,...Wasted Day...

    Why don't you do what you think you just cannot do, and go test drive some of those cars/trucks that are made here by people in the USA and see if they are really that bad. I bet you are going to be SHOCKED.
