    Will Nissan survive?

    Do ya mean like Cordoba/Coronet/Fury? New Yorker/Fury/Polara? And many other makes. I read a couple days ago Honda and Nissan are in negotiations.

    South Korea's F-4 Phantoms Final Flight. For All Us Military Aircraft Enthusiasts.

    The F-4 owes much of its heritage to two other MAC (McDonnell Aircraft Company) planes-the F2H Banshee and the F-3 Demon. Placed side by side you can see how they morphed into the F-4. I remember seeing and hearing the Phantoms as they left the Phactory just down the road. I live in the flight...

    Any Driveway Mechanics?

    Never had a garage, just an uncovered carport. Either worked curbside or on the carport. Done engine/trans swaps on cars and moorsickles. Don't see a garage in my future, either.

    Lithium blows up real good in Frederick, MO

    Does anyone find it ironic this area once had lead smelting operations that were closed by the EPA for "environmental reasons"?

    Remember when we used to haul trailers with cars?

    Back in the 70s we towed a 19' boat with a70 Challenger, 318 auto, 3.23 gears. I don't know how much it weighed, but when we put it on a 4k lb capacity trailer, it flattened the springs, so we got another trailer. Then, load it up with tents and other camping equipment and head off for a week or...

    Schwan's Ice Cream man getting closed down

    When you offer your products for sale in stores, people buy them in the stores when they do the rest of their food shopping. The Schwan family still owned and operated Yelloh but their own business model eliminated their delivery service. Schwan food products, made by the South Korean company...

    Route 66 trip

    Plymcrazy, you may have dodged a bullet (No puns intended)! The tram on the north leg of the Arch stopped about 100 feet from the bottom yesterday. It sensed a cable problem, activating the automatic brakes. People were trapped for about two hours until crews got them out of the cars and they...

    Route 66 trip

    Imo's? Not any more. Provel (not Provolone) cheese and way overpriced. They used to actually put toppings on their pizza. There are a few different routes through and around STL. Manchester Road (MO 100) is the original route out of town but these days it's nothing but stoplights and strip malls...

    What is your claim to fame?

    I would bet many of you have pictures of your kids, your grand kids, and your parents have pictures of yourselves as newborns before you came home from the hospital hanging on the wall in your home and I had a hand in it. Problem is, nobody knows...or cares!

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    Negative. Walmart doesn't build the product and has NOTHING to do with how it's made. When the MANUFACTURER makes the decision to lower quality to meet a price point, once again it it THEIR decision, not the retailer. In my soap example the producer made the decision to meet the price point...

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    Don't blame Walmart for a lesser quality product. The blame goes to the MANUFACTURER for lowering their quality. They can always say NO. My brother used to work in a soap factory. I won't say the name but it's the same as using a rotary phone to call someone. Walmart wanted them to produce soap...

    1972 Charger 440 Magnum emblems on front fenders?

    I seem to remember way back in caveman days when I had a 72 SE the 440 emblem was above the Charger and the 400 was below. My pornographic memory could be failing me. I swapped in a 360 and a friend had a 70 440 R/T and he removed the emblems and put them on my car. We went to the local dealer...
