I was wondering if anyone had purchased those cooper tires from the
real source, I think they are $200 plus S&H. The belts are showing on

Once warm engine is hard or slow to start much of the time. It seems as
if its flooding. HELP!

the rear of the car. I know it has to be something with the

bonanza.  Thousands of parts, dozens of cars, tractors, and even a
restored 49' Airstream 14' trailer coupled to a restored 52' Chevy six

I have a 67 VW bug that has been sitting for a couple of years. I am
now trying to move it but it feels as though the brakes are stuck. The
emergency brake is off and the clutch is pushed to the floor but it

This is the third summer season since Bussy got his transplant - a 2.2
Subaru Legacy motor out of a totalled wagon. There were a couple little
details to straighten out in the beginning, but there have been NO failures

My '68 westy took a shot in the nose before I owned it.
This pushed the A (hinge) pillar back a tad and the doors don't line up
and close correctly. I am going to try moving them back using a porta
