  1. Tour to Occidental, from the Facebook page of Redwood Empire Region AACA. It's a good way to share pictures.
  2. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2209016075/ Here is that Studebaker Facebook Group. The link will only work for people logged into a Facebook account.
  3. All it makes me think is my dad loved that show and especially enjoyed Hoss.
  4. I visited England yesterday by having a Samuel Smith's Chocolate Stout.
  5. I enjoyed my '74 1600 when I owned it. Took a few long freeway drives at 80 mph which was hard on the engine and the valves got tight. Around town was great, like the handling, stiff torsion springs, light weight.
  6. The air-cooled Beetle makes a good EV conversion, because it's easy to bolt an electric motor to the transmission. You could put batteries in the front storage area. Far from ideal for battery storage, not enough room or lay-out for a good "battery pack."
  7. It's funny because Musk got in serious trouble. Stock is now 469.06 USD +17.52 (3.88%) and Mkt cap $84.55B Back in 2018 Musk was mad, the stock was down, he was blaming Wall Street, short sellers, or stock manipulators. And he threatened to "take it private" at $420. He had no funding or partners in place to take it private at such an inflated price as $420. SEC fined him, etc. Aug 19, 2018 - Here's what's happened: On Tuesday, August 7, Musk tweeted that he was considering taking Tesla private at $420 and already had funding secured. Current shareholders, he said, would either be able to sell at $420 or hold on to their shares and go private. Aug 8, 2018 - Elon Musk says he wants to take Tesla private at over $70 billion — here's what that means. Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk shocked Wall Street on Tuesday with a tweet in which he said he wants to take Tesla private at a price of $420 per share. Such a deal would value the electric car company at roughly $70 billion ...

  9. I had no idea. Bernie's a good-natured fellow, and after that post you referenced I posted a comment re:asbestos and how he sailed through that aspect of it, and he responded. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

  10. Pictures of Buick in Tora Tora Tora have so far only turned up this one. The website is not working now. It's supposed to show all cars in the movie, but the webpage won't load. https://www.imcdb.org/m66473.html
  11. Wow, I thought a reduction of 21 cc was a lot, but when you are starting from a compression ratio of only 3.8 the increase is not so much.
  12. Just for those of us, like myself, totally unfamiliar, it probably looks something like this, horizontal opposed 2 cylinder
  13. I would need more information before I'd buy that as an explanation. Looks like a Star of David.
  14. I've seen a Plymouth pickup like this around locally, being driven, restored but not entirely original, black. It was lowered some and with different wheels, but I wouldn't call it a hotrod. The body appeared unmolested.
  15. It's being widely reported in this country. Just saw a report on the PBS News Hour, our Public Broadcasting. Also on the regular networks like CBS.
  16. I would think you'd put a 302 Ford in it, not a Chevy. Why would anyone want a Chevy engine in their Ford.
  17. That pickup is in "Lucerne Valley, California" I didn't know where that was so looked it up. It is in the desert, San Bernardino county. No wonder it looks to have minimal rust. Dry climate.
  18. Never been to New Orleans in my life unfortunately
