    C2 differential

    63 C2 corvette differential, CA: 3.36:1 standard. CA 10/29/63. See photos. Came from down south years ago and was removed and stored indoors. It will need seals as it was leaking a bit before it was drained. Perfect for a quality restoration. I wanted a mid 70s and didn’t find the the date...

    Any ideas on the origin of this?

    The bearing housings have J&J or just JJ embedded in the casting. This came out of an old ford hot rod years ago and was stored. I bought it for the diff housing which has no rust pitting ( unlike most in Midwest). Doesn’t seem to be a true six link but that would be an easy fix. Any...

    Interesting article. Basically a graffiti artist agreed to a YouTube video and then was raided. My guess the police just got a history of tower pings on the interviewers phone. Anyway an interesting read and video links included...

    Humorous History

    I stumbled on this YT character a while ago. I find a few things he says are pretty cringe, but it is only like 1%. He puts some humor in the story. This one, jump to 4 minutes if you want to skip his rambling and sponsor plug.

    Craigslist killed the newspaper

    For many years, my day started by reading the newspaper. Thought this was an interesting statement: “ Internet is what has been killing papers–those certainly haven't helped–it was the appearance of Craigslist that doomed most newspapers. Why? A primary source of revenue for most newspapers...

    Car sales and the recession

    I was at a nearby dealer a week ago for warranty service. They had probably 8 Tacomas on the lot. One of the managers said trucks aren’t selling as gas prices are so high. Weird, six months ago you had to put a deposit on a truck they’d get in a month. Crazy post-COVID economy, I guess. It...
