    1938 Fire truck...What to do?

    Look up Firefly Restorations (I think) in Hope, Maine. The guy has a lot of old firetrucks in the yard outside an old converted chicken house. He might be interested in what you have.

    Buick 300 opinions and observations wanted

    I have a 350 Buick and TH350. The BOP trannies have a U-shape dip on the top of the bell, vs a humpback on the Chevy version. As others said, the switch-pitch is supposed to be neat. Gets you off the line like a higher stall, then drops back to highway manners at speed. That's save you...

    Will You Ever Finish The Projects In Your Wishlist?

    good call SnakeFarm. If I cant work on em for whatever reason, I want to be able to THINK I will, so if I finish everything on my wish list, I would prolly check out for good. Dont want that.

    Hmmmmm...what engine 350 or 327

    I think the least expensive way would be to have that 305 evaluated by someone who knows. Heads come to mind. Probably doesnt breath too well. That includes getting the right carb and tuning it properly, a good dual plane intake, and a compatible exhaust system including proper diameter long...

    Which oil filter?!

    Lots of good reading at bobistheoilguy dot com. I use Purolator or AC Delco mostly. I learned that the Walmart brand (Tech?) gets better reviews than Fram. I've run them before with no ill effects. Wont use Fram.

    went to the doctor yesterday

    Dont wait. What wears out til then will help you recover. And while you never know how long the replacement will last, you may as well get the new one now while you can use it. You might not be able to walk in 15 years for another reason, OR you may not be here at all. Git R done! My sister...

    About as frustrated and PO'd as I need be.

    Chevy used to make a car called the Monza (not the Corvair one) that had to have the motor pulled out to change the plugs. Really. Those designers should have been tortured.:cool:

    Things not to do ever again

    when I was in high school I tried raking blueberries one summer. Basically you bend at the waist and pick teeny blueberries from bushes that are only a foot tall. I lasted one day and said no more. I collected my $14 and probably began what has turned into lifelong lower back pain. Now I...

    Delivery anyone?

    I just saw a 58 sedan in front of a shop this week. Dont see many 58s at all, much less a sedan delivery. Pretty cool.

    Did ya miss me?.......six days without.......

    Sandy missed me by just a whisker. Between Snake Farm's snow and NJ floods. Boy am I lucky. Snake--I've tried to get in touch with someone in Berkley Springs with no luck. Not sure where you are compared to them, but any idea if they got hammered like you did? That might 'splaine it.

    This is NOT a political rant !!!!

    Just an hour north of the White House and I was in and out in about 10 minutes. I was surprised how easy it would be to vote as someone else, though. They asked me my name, my address, and I had to sign a slip. No SS number, no photo ID or anything. Hell, I could've voted a dozen times with...
