Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I don't have any photos, but the story of our family moving to California from Minnesota includes a reported 38 cumulative feet of snow in Minneapolis, the year we moved out. I was 3+, so don't remember a lot of it. I'm hoping that I never see that kind of snowfall. I lived through 2 winters in Idaho; that was enough cold to last me a lifetime.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
PS, I wanted them to run awhile to get the fuel moving, and everyone of these trucks started up when I turned the key. None of the Fords did though.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Holy cow!!!!
![]() I had to go to the Post Office today. They wont deliver to my house in Weldon because of the dirt road. If it doesn't fit in my mailbox at the end of the road I have to pick it up. I don't mind, it's close, and they all know me and are real friendly. There's never a line (small town) Just the occasional old bity that won't stop talking. I never say anything. I respect my elders. And it takes quite a bit to be older than me. My wife said that we probably had a couple packages there. I walked in and said that my wife said that we may have a couple of packages. They started laughing and said "you're going to need to borrow a box Paul'. It seems that my wife went on a little shopping spree on the internet. I'm going to return the box tomorrow. My wife told me that there was more coming tomorrow. ![]() ![]()

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Dagnabbit, I meant to quote you, too. They say small blocks are cold blooded. Just means they like a good warm up to smooth out. I haven't had a choke hooked up on my '72 in ages. Just press pedal once, and I mean only once, and crank it. hit the pedal again and you'll be popping the hood to shut the butterfly again. Don't need no steenkin choke! Maybe up your way I'd go ahead and get a link rod for it. Funny how the Chevys will start and the "other makes" didn't
That didn't happen in one day! Quote:

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Pretty sure the thermometers in our cars don't even go that low here. I have seen "ICE" displayed once on the Yukon.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
That rear still moving that vehicle was like an old man with one tooth eating steak!
![]() Makes me wonder why the state of Maryland started cracking down on the misuse of historic registration. "So this is your cherished beloved classic?" ![]() To be fair, it does look like this car was in good shape, they did stop making the Saturns, it's been some years now, I can see them as a special interest segment, and this damage may have (more than likely) recently occurred to the owner's dismay, with the car already being registered historic. I certainly have seen more clear-cut examples of abuse. Cars that would never pass a safety inspection, or emissions, to be properly registered. So, snuck under the radar by registering as historic, with no inspections required. The cops can't even give a repair order, since inspection is not required in the first place. I mean, back in the '30s some cars only had one tail light or even later vehicles had no turn signals.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
NY it just needs to be at 25 years old. Non of my vehicles have them no real benefit here just you can use a plate from the year your car was manufactured. And they charge you 25 a year more every year just like a vanity plate

Are ECMs in Southern California required to be CTRB compliant? (California Temp Resources Board)

Electronic Counter Measures are outlawed in California. The CHP gets all soggy and hard to light, about them. :P

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
pursuing other hobbies lately, figured I'd check in
![]() recently found a good deal on a very rare proprietary mount LAM.. more expensive and difficult to find than extreme bends ![]() curved back with thumb wheel locking stud fits MARK 23 trigger guard only.. original USSOCOM model ![]() ![]() surprisingly this little gem I bought directly from the factory in '09 is even more rare.. although also proprietary, still not as valuable as it doesn't fit USSOCOM model.. ![]() but they do make an attractive couple, both great collectors for my kids some day ![]() ![]()
