Many folks in the Rolls-Royce Owners Club swear by Leatherique. I've used it in my Bentley and it's great. They advertise in Hemmings, I think. --berry

This is probably why my 110 volt compressor fires up fine when the tank is empty but blows the circuit breaker every time it cycles after that. Yeah, yeah, I need to run a 220 line to my garage. Unti

I learned something about lifts the other day when George Colgett put my T-Bentley on a lift in his Hayward shop to help me find a noise in the rear. I saw a little wire running the length of the lif

Sure. If you want to have a leak-down tester, just buy one. If you dig making things, go ahead. It's like Aircraft Spruce's purpose in life: Homebuilt aircraft. They all say if you want to fly a pla

You could probably go a long way with a couple of 4x4s, a solid core door (flat, not panelled) and a sheet of Masonite for a smooth renewable surface.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why not put the car on 3" (or taller) blocks and just let the water seep in and out? Me, I had to sandbag the garage to keep the Palo Alto floods off my Bentley...

Am I completely wrong in thinking that the 66 Pontiac GTO has no frame? I thought it was a unibody design.

An aircraft mechanic working on my plane once told me that if you need more torque than a 1/4 inch socket can deliver something is wrong...he used 1/4 drive sockets almost exclusively. Of course, muc

I'm a bit surprised that people need impact sockets for air ratchets. Aren't ordinary sockets OK? Impact sockets for impact wrenches, sure, but for a plain air driven ratchet aren't ordinary sockets

One thing you can do is cut away part of the molding *behind* the coped cut, making the coped end of the moding "sharp". That way, if the cut is a bit off when you try to fit it, it's simple to adjus
