I am working on the doors for my car. Next step is a trial fit for the mirror and correct some issues with the fit of the mirror bracket to the door. So, I remembered something, the mirror on a 1968 was located about 5 inches forward of the position of later cars. I don't recall the reason...

I had no idea this guy was still alive. https://theshopmag.com/news/ed-iskenderian-camfather-passed-104/?oly_enc_id=0340C1836612H3E

I haven't followed F1 for a while, way too much drama and it turned into the worlds most expensive spec racing series with hybrid cars. Appears that this year they changed the engine rules and one of the changes was to reduce the compression ratio from 18:1 to 16:1. However, the are inspected...

Any one seen one of 3D printed DIY 4 wheel alignment tools? This sells for like $180 but supposedly the print file is available. Probably make one for $10 Gyraline Review & Demo – DIY Wheel Alignment Tool You Can Use Anywhere!

I am using the C3 fuel sender in a 1968 tank. I started the engine for the first time about 4 years ago but I didn't have gauges until last year. So I have been starting it every 4-6 weeks for the past 4 years trying to run the old fuel through it. But without a gauge I added fuel like 1...

This unlikely supercar forged right here in America was one of the greatest supercars of the era, yet its tragic story has made it the greatest American supercar you have ever heard of.

Why does this sound like Ford entering F1 when they owned Jaguar? That lasted two years before giving to team to Red Bull. Formula 1 didn’t want them. The teams rejected them. FOM said no. So how did Cadillac and Andretti force their way onto the F1 grid for 2026? The American Team That Will...

From Congressman Warren Davidson introduces the REPAIR ACT: "Freedom means owning what you buy, and being able to repair what you own. Yet, automakers currently gatekeep the resources and information needed for you to make your own repairs. Treating customers like captive repair clients hurts...

Just saw this on FB Marketplace Lexington Ohio. Buckminster Fuller Tribute Vehicle: Seller's description PENDING This is a full custom built art deco style vehicle in the style of some of the kate 30s early 40s concepts and canned ham trailers. The vehicle is titled and road legal as an...

https://gmauthority.com/blog/2025/04/chevy-silverado-gmc-sierra-recalled-for-6-2l-v8-engine-loss-of-propulsion/ Looks like about 600,000 vehicles affected.

Saw this illustration in the film strip across the top of the page that shows the torsional rigidity of a 62 vs. 63 frame. If I recall correctly I think a modern (designed in the last 30-40 years) unibody car has a minimum 10,000 Lbs.ft/degree rigidity. Does that sound right?

I drove down to Tennessee a couple of weeks ago to pick up a Tahoe I bought. It was a rental that I turned in and drove the Tahoe back. The rental was a newish Toyota. I was using Google for directions. When I was on the expressway I noticed the Toyota speedo said 70mph and Google had my...

My old Tahoe 4wd (165k miles, automatic) has a weird vibration from 30-40mph. I don't think it's a wheel balance issue (don't really feel it only in the steering wheel). To try and isolate it, I did an experiment. I went up a slight grade from a stop and slowly accelerated to 40mph. At...

I am working on door panels that "merge" C6 panels to work on a C3. The C6 panels have an electric latch for the door that is operated by a push button. I have the electric latch worked out. I assume (could be wrong), that the C6 has some type of motion activated switch that that disables...

I am looking for a 90's Chevy truck that has been in the south or south west for the last 30 years. I am in Ohio, and will have to travel to look at any candidate vehicle. I have a 97 and it is rusted badly. There are no patch panel fixes for this. So I would like to see a report that...

Where is the maximum oil fill line for a BBC? Not just on the dipstick but in physically in the engine? Bottom of the crank counterbalance?

I have a blade style battery cutoff switch (like the electric chair) on the negative terminal. With the car off, ignition switch off and battery cutoff, I am reading .15-.25 volts. When I look at the current between the chassis ground and the negative terminal, I see 0ma. Does this make sense?

This guy builds a 1/5 scale Ferrari 250 in 8 minutes. It runs! He builds a roll cage for it using some kind of fusion welding device. Makes the body out of HVAC duct (?) and spots it together with the same welder. Pretty amazing.

I need a fuse for the INST LPS position (bottom of picture). Presumably Instrument Lamps. Anyone have a chart?

I need a set of new center drills. I have been buying HSS center drills from Mcmaster but they don't last (drill points dull). The smaller sizes mostly. I was looking for Precision Drill (made in USA) brand but it looks like they have been moved to Brazil. Everything else looks like China...
