    Kool Bike Photos!!!

    I love those old school 50's style bob jobs, I guess next would be the up sweep exhaust. I actually started to build a similar with a jock lid shift in the late 70's, but traded it all for a GMC.

    Caught on Live cam

    Saturday morning I went to the Detail Garage cars and coffee in Tampa, this is a big show, easily over 1000 cars, but only about 20-30 of the oldies and a handful of rats. This was a live stream, 2 and a half hours. It is a popular show, free krispy Kremes, and it is right turn only when...

    Very Close Call Today

    Fast thinking and reaction on your son's part. I am not running a safety switch as of yet, and I am very aware of it, having had a close call myself. I think I will make it this weekends project

    Damn....nice doggy....! I had no idea of bears in Fla until I drove through Apopka area and saw the road signs. But I may have seen one playing shuffleboard at an over 55 mobile home park in Zephyrhills. .

    Vintage semi's

    Gawd! That Allied Miss Cathy really gave me a flashback! I had a view of a main avenue from my bedroom window, lots of those older trucks, especially the 40's 50's Macks pulling bullet nosed trailers with the black tarps for a roof. But many of those pictured here are a little newer. I also...

    brake bleeding

    Yes under floor. And I see what you are getting at, the wheel cylinders are higher than master. I probably should run dual and pressure regulator/equalizer and/or move it all to firewall eventually

    brake bleeding

    Very cool. When I first pull out I noticed I have to give a pump or two, to make sure the system is working ok even with the new front discs and the new original style single master cylinder. After that its fine all day, but I still think there is an issue with the rear drums, even with new...

    We lost innocent lives today

    Yes as a father of three daughters, I cant imagine the pain going on with the families, and now a couple days later there are a lot of questions. A lot. My questions are more about the changes in society since the late 60's. I think many of us old timers know.
