My now departed friend John, who may have wanted the car more than I did, remarked that it was "a car you shouldn't pick your nose in."

I suppose if it were pale blue one might perfom acts of per ...

You must have some serious sand there. Strong enough to rip off your rear bumper rubber trim! lol

Good work. Do you have pics of the brackets you made? I've got some vintage BMW mudflaps but I' ...

Did you grind the paint off where you bolted your ground? Make sure that is a very clean connection.

Also, are you going to cover your battery posts somehow? Any loose metalic item in the trunk c ...

Thanks Mike. I've actually got all of the bits to rebuild the entire pedal box but have not had the opportunity to do this yet. I think I'll go ahead and lubricate the points you indicated for the t ...

As I'm driving along and step on the clutch pedal, I hear a sound that resembles a wiper blade running across a dry windshield. Is there something that needs to be lubed in the pedal box or is this s ...

A couple of questions for you:

Was the engine warm when you drained it?

Was the oil filter removed during the draining?

Sorry if these seem elementary but we have all levels of expertise on t ...
