I built a big garage with a 10 foot high ceiling so I could put in a lift, but I spent all my money on the garage! It'll just have to wait. With a one ton box 15' long you've got so; /html/mgs/2005-07/msg00178.html (8,360 bytes)

My biggest fear would be turning it in; /html/mgs/2005-07/msg00206.html (7,707 bytes)

Wire wheels, rubber bands, and flats (score: 1): Author: "Stuart MacMillan" <macgroup@comcast.net>; Date: Tue, 3 May 2005 09:37:14 -0700; Last summer I finally gave up on my 40 year old wire wheels. They were all quite loose, and the spokes couldn't be adjusted since they were all rusty. I found that flats were being caused by the rust; /html/mgs/2005-05/msg00029.html (7,255 bytes)

That's so simple I never would have thought of it. In the past I've usually looked for the most expensive specialized tool I could find. It's time I changed the paradigm.

No silicone brake fluid for me either (score: 1): Author: "Stuart MacMillan" <macgroup@comcast.net>; Date: Fri, 20 May 2005 09:29:50 -0700; I agree with Bob, silicone fluid in my '65 was a disaster. The walls of the tin can reservoir condensed enough water to rust out a new master cylinder in less than 18 months. I don't think there is a; /html/mgs/2005-05/msg00260.html (7,125 bytes)

Of course, you have to buy the w; /html/mgs/2005-05/msg00288.html (6,651 bytes)

It was the ignition switch, which had literally exploded. Or sort of, the bakelite circle containing all the contacts popped out of the switc; /html/mgs/2005-04/msg00352.html (9,023 bytes)

I've done it, but it took me 35 years to break it, and I really needed a new one anyway! You are a far more careful person than I am. I think you could; /html/mgs/2005-04/msg00370.html (7,835 bytes)
