  3. What's to prevent a qualified participant in the clearing house (like a used car dealer, for example) from 'buying' a car with skimpy or nonexistent paperwork and then putting it through for a WVA title?  And then 'selling' it to an end user with the new WVA title?  It would be pretty much the same situation as the present one.

  4. These are a set of 3 original Mopar dealer technician training books for the new '78 Omni and Horizon.
    The topics are: Engine Engine Electrical, Emission Controls and Lean Burn Carburetor, Fuel and Exhaust, Engine Cooling, Heating and Air Conditioning Service, and Parking Brakes, Front and Rear Axles and Suspension, Clutch and Manual Transmission, Wheels and Tires, Differential, Steering Systems, Body Electrical and Instruments, Body, Sheetmetal, and Trim. 
    The books themselves are in very nice condition. The technician's name is written on each cover, and there may be a handwritten note or two. If you're into the Omni and Horizon you're sure to find something useful in these manuals!
    $25.00 for the set, postpaid by Media Mail in the lower 48 states.

  6. Just wanted to spread the word about this.....

    I have some vintage automotive items listed on eBay and was doing housekeeping on my ads.    I was taken aback when I saw the US Postal Service launched a new service on Sunday called Ground Advantage that combines first-class package and several other services under one roof.   I'm still looking over the changes, but one takeaway I have is that the shipping charges on eBay listings will have to be manually revised due to the changes in postal service.  If anyone can share any insights please post them here.

     

     

  7. I don't do under-car work anymore and had the hubs done by a mechanic friend who did side work.  He left the field due to family matters.   You can probably find a local 'side-job' guy if you ask at the parts store that's selling you the bearings.  I would also strongly recommend making sure the bearings are the source of your noise.  Mis-diagnosis can be very costly (a situation I'm painfully aware of...).

  8. Here's an original 1986 Ford marketing manual that goes into great detail about the newly-introduced Taurus.  It was issued to dealership personnel and includes chapters on background and market, buyer profiles, engineering and design features, selling guide, standard features by series, and much more.  The manual has 92 pages and is printed on glossy paper with many crisp illustrations.  If you're into the early Taurus you'll enjoy this book!

     

    $20.00 includes Media Mail shipping in the lower 48 states.

  9. My wife and I attended on Sunday.  The car show was great.  Attendance seemed lighter than I remember it, and the swap meet had fewer vendors and a lot of dollar tarps and tables, with a few having 'going out of business' signs.  Merchandise quality was down based on what I saw.  Very few people were carrying any purchases.

     

    If you were a vendor, how would you rate the swap meet?
