Hate seeing manufacturing businesses going under and especially an engine rebuild manufacturer. So we got he add at the dealership and I was thumbing thru it being mad that it's located in Cali so I can't go inspect any of the equipment or the vehicles being auctioned off. '57 Mark II was my...

Well not really raced but here is the senario. Left the Best Buy by me as I just picked up an Open Box HERO3. Leave the store and of course light is turning red with 2 Jap SUV's in the slow lane. So I take the left hand lane as around 5 or 6 hundred feet I have to take the right hand turn off...

So I go into Autozone as I needed Rubber Radiator mount bushings as I was putting a big 4 core one in place of the puny 2 core rad. I show him this rubber bushing in the pic next to my keys. He goes on the PC and asks me does it look like this? :eek: Seriously I just showed him the...

So I tripped on these on FB believe it or not :eek: 4.6 dressed up for a Street Rod but if I find out who makes these I would deff put a set on my Mark :cool:

Holcomb Shortblock OK It's not a complete engine but hey what were you expecting? Actually at $3899 I am thinking I can build one for myself cheaper but, thats just cause I built the others before. So I can get parts and machining at cost so to speak. Still was interesting to see a 4.6...

So I was just made aware that the dealership I work with signed up to bid on and purchase flood cars at a Auction yard 8 miles from my house. He gave me the heads up so I could look into the lot and see what I want. Of course LAID OFF and a 2013 BOSS NEW for almost DIRT MONEY :eek...

So on way home from Metuchen NJ which is around 18 or 20 miles from my house for a X-mas eve family function. In sleet going down 287 and something isn't feeling quite right :confused: Pull through Somerville and something starts making ugly sounds so I pull over after crossing into Raritan...

So I just paid for the 4 Cobra-R Mark VIII bolt pattern rims I picked up last week. While I was BSing with him he told me the 2 front 7x17" rims have a Ford Part number on them. Supposedly making them rare and more than worth the $75 price of the set with the backs being 9x17". Kinda figured...

So been a lil while since I posted and been on a bit of a spending spree buying stuff that just pissed me off (Mac Pro) and sold my Silver '98 LSC :( While at PepBoys scanning my old LSC to shut off the Cel light and friend of mine pulled into the lot and said I have something for you in the bed...

Seeing as I have a spare MARK VIII 2nd gen engine looking for a home this has given me an idea :confused: http://nosleepatall.com/?p=1433# I mean if you can put an unattractive Vette engine in a Beetle why not a MOD engine :D I'm between something like this or putting it in my C1500 to...

So sitting watching a Movie that I though was gonna be lame but turned out to be OK. That is until I saw this and became a bit upset. Not sure why either :confused: Anyone guess the movie :shifty:

Not Mark related but worse to me at least :( I had to put a 7 year project up for hock but got screwed as the scumbag sold it before I had a chance to buy it back. Now my friend just sent me my old car listed on CL :eek: http://newjersey.craigslist.org/cto/3065120489.html

So working at my brothers shop for the time being and doing some obscene projects for cash is no object people it would seem :rolleyes: This table top is a full sized blue print of a Billet Aluminum Pocket Door I am making for a Brownstone in West Manhattan. It will be getting antique glass...

It is a friend of a friends fathers car and is garage kept. All dealer maintained from what I know of? White with grey interior, sunroof, new tires. He is buying a new VW R and wants to know if I want it before he uses it as trade in bait :eek: What should I shoot an offer to him for it?

Day 2 driving and it was bouncing off redline if I didn't screw with throttle up upshifts and down shifts. Asked a few mechanics what they thought and they weren't understanding off hand. Leave this morning and same old wind up then shift. Message center says low on fuel and oil. Go to...

Drove car to work, then drove home shifting fine. Stopped for some food and when I came back out I spun the tires leaving the place cause it was wet out. Then after it got traction it didn't shift till 5000rpm :confused: Thought maybe it was cause of the spinning or something? Then noticed...

Scanning Craigslist for parts and I find 2 93's being parted out. One being around an hour away and the other just 2 or so miles from my house :D When I went to pick it up the guy tells me what a PITA it was to get out. Even though some people here think it is no different from 99% of the RWD...

Just to see what it would look like if I went the Hydraulic route as it was offered to me by a new acquaintance that is running it on his Lincoln. Friends daily driven full Hydraulic custom Lincoln that he claims rides smooth :shifty: Interesting thought but I ain't even done a hub swap yet...
