You know, I've often thought about creating, for lack of a better word, 'decoy' items for a thief to steal. A friend used to drive a '73 Capri to Detroit to work. He was forever getting his gas sipho

One of the Midgets I was pulling parts off of, in my latest junkyard excursion, had rolled. The steering wheel was dented as a result, it was shaped like the letter "D". Ouch. -Aron Travis"always in

It would be very unlikely that a piston could make it through the hood. Most pistons are aluminium and just don't have the mass to overcome a head or block. Now a rod....... Most of these terms are v

I put up with a 1.5 horse compressor for many years. I think it was a 10 or 15 gallon tank. It would run all the air tools, but for only about 30sec. You would then have to wait for it to charge up a

Buy a copy of "Hemmings Motor News", in the 'M' section there should be page after page of parts places. Always query for parts on this list too, there's a few good companies lurking here also. Nope.
