The majority of the airflow comes from the vents at the very very bottom, parallel to the ground(directed up by the air deflector). The front vents cars are mostly decorative in terms of their size

The Chicago area is most definitely not gods country lol

I was born in Northwest Chicago. Grew up in Elk Grove Village. I agree with you!

Those are the "new" cam bearings in my nephew's 6.0ls. Who says you can't install them with a vice grip

These people get it.

Must be an oracle that lives there =P
I like how well it matches the house. Took me a minute.

They even have a moat

Funny part about this area of that particular city is that most of the houses are Victorian/Edwardian era. The houses along the main route are extremely well maintained and are absolutely stunning examples of period architecture. Some of the smaller homes along the side streets though (like this one) haven't been cared for very well.

Almost hurled on the first look...

Earth brains! I don't want to do research on mushroom hunting, though I know people go about looking for them. Are they sweet or something, or just free?

Morels are choice. We harvest those, chanterelles, chicken of the woods, and hen of the woods every year.

Caught the sunrise in Junction City, KS today as we were leaving to come home. Been working at the hospital in the area all week. AirBnB was within eyesite of Fort Riley. The airstrip lights and beacon were visible at night from the house.

Cool house and museum, tons of history there. Let's see if any of you recognize it or knows who lives/lived there...

Looks like Gale Halderman's old place to me, but memory is getting fuzzy.

Long day at work. Was in Lowe's around 5:15pm and got called out to a customer site for some down equipment (on-call sucks). Finally made it back home around 10pm and my fuzzy buddy was sleepily waiting for me. Nice to see someone waiting up for ya after a long day.

 

[AdamG]

You are correct. There was supposed to be a get together there last weekend but got canceled because of all the rain the week before. I hear his widow is doing well at keeping his memory alive.

That's funny because I hit a female wild Turkey this afternoon. Was doing 65, it bounced off the antenna, which bent back and smashed the windshield.



Anyone know if windshields are still easy to find for our cars?

 

[Kidd-7]

Safe lite, but they don’t last. Mine a few years old and needs replaced again. It is a daily driver though.

My iris beds are finally waking up. Good to see them budding out well this year. The colors are looking good.

 

[Grog6]

I have iris es as well; I stole them from our house in Oak Ridge when we moved here.

Got the fenders back on the turbo coupe, still having an issues not getting fuel, I think it may be a bad inertia switch so I’m trying to locate one of those.

I think it may be a bad inertia switch

For diagnosis purposes, just bypass the switch and see if that fixes it?

I found one already.

Put my 5-year old to work wiring a trailer yesterday. I had her do the heatshrink on all of the soldered joints.

 

[Zep5.0]

got the car in my brother in laws trailer to head to Safelite tomorrow morning. I bet when the trailer was new it would have been a close match to my truck. And my truck is squatting because I don't have a pintle receiver that is low enough. I need it about 4" lower to sit right.

I just had mine replaced today. Safelite was the only place I could find one. The worst part is they don't do phone calls, so you can't talk to a person until the day before service. That's when I asked if I could just buy the glass and have someone else install it. They couldn't do that but they got me the managers phone#. He advised I could bring the car in and he would personally do it. He stated his techs wouldn't know how to do it.

 

[Zep5.0]

Glass installed. Had to order some clips for a mustang to see if they will work for the top trim. If not, Bill has one NOS that he'll sell for $450.
Back glass is also in. I'll share my success or failure of the moulding in my thread
