  3. I saw this posted elsewhere on the 'net ...... when this happened I was sitting a mere 10 miles away ...... you don't see a double-action feature like this everyday: a 2002 chasing a plane in the fast lane ..... KTLA 5 News January 11, 2016 · A light plane landed on the 23 Freeway in the Moorpark area. The plane came down around 4:37 p.m. in traffic lanes near Tierra Rejada Road, according to the California Highway Patrol incident log. https://www.facebook.com/ktla5/videos/10153943562214614/ Cheers, Carl

  6. +1 Jimmy. That Bike Of Damocles, in earthquake country ....... sure makes me nervous. And all those tall stacks of life's necessities ...... yep, definite stress. Cheers, Carl
  7. ..... this could be it ..... https://teechip.com/bwsdfs?fbclid=IwAR2Jln86o-SnNmwy2M94iFFvi-NQGfdBcNkuScw5zkSiwmJadYjceIfQ8zE Cheers, Carl
  8. Ah, Malaysia, great place !! A year after I bought my '74tii I got lucky and scored an all-expense-paid vacation to this place. A wonderful Christmas Day in 1975, enjoying ice-cold Coors beer on the beach !! Cheers, Carl
  9. a couple of guys will know what I'm talkin' about ......
  10. Doing a "master cylinder refurb" ...... piece of cake. With that said, I've done only one on my '74tii (and several on my '48 Chevy truck). I was exceptionally lucky on the '74tii for 2 huge reasons: 1) I was able to easily find a master cylinder rebuild kit. (I've heard rumors they are now no longer available.) 2) there was no pitting in the cylinder bore. Just some clean-up effort with 2,000-grit sandpaper cleaned out the crud. Cheers, Carl
  11. when your favorite mechanic downsizes his shop and no longer wants to do oil changes for you, and wants to make the task easier for you to accomplish .......
  12. Here's a crankshaft place in Pacoima ...... https://www.recordcrankshaft.com/ Cheers, Carl
  13. we should all be so lucky !!!! Cheers, Carl
  14. when you need new brakes on the driver's side, but your favorite mechanic has not yet made repairs to his hydraulic lift .......

  16. A beauty !! And it deserves to be on the west coast so you can drive it year-round !! Cheers, Carl
  17. top row, the two far right pictures (your screen resolution may move things around) ..... https://www.imcdb.org/movie_7598448-The-Little-Drummer-Girl.html Cheers, Carl
  18. it's that time of year: driving in snow can be dangerous, especially if you prefer driving your Maserati atop a tow truck ......
  19. the picture above that layers posted of the burnt-out 2002: I'm told by Norm Manchen that the picture is from a completely different fire and was posted by a news network as "stock" footage, and therefore not an actual Camp Fire photo. With that said, what a tragedy with so much total loss of everything by so many people. Cheers, Carl
  20. My memory thinks that high strength bolts are necessary for this application ...... --- Something like a metric Grade 10.9 or better ?? --- I don't know if Grade 8.8 is good enough ?? Cheers, Carl
