    A rather large weather vane

    In my travels last weekend, I spotted this: Location is close to Carman, Manitoba. Lots of work to get the wind direction. It does function, I noted it move quite easily with a gust of wind, so someone put some engineering into it. :)

    What Did Ya Get Done This Weekend?

    I know this is a controversial topic: Steering stabilizers! My truck likes to swim around a bit at 30 - 40 mph and I have some slop in the steering, despite newish kingpins, new bushings on the front leaf eyes. I played with tire pressure, and the front end is set up properly... the steering...

    Just before paint! This pic was taken a number of years ago, just after I found her. Undeniable "rattiness" at this point, just before we took her in for paint. A ratted out muscle car may be getting the best of both worlds, I guess. [S But I can't unpaint it now. :D Note the old 14"...

    Cold war motors - Will it run?

    Coldwarmotors I enjoy the overall chill attitude. The sense of humour is right there.[ddd They put minimal hours in just to get the cars moving around, no beserk power goals. Ergo, things are done on the cheap. And some of the cars are spectacular. Saskatchewan and Alberta communities that...
