We are looking to change internet service and we are strongly considering Xfinity. We currently use the phone company, Quest as the used to be called but now I guess they call themselves Centurylink.

I'm looking to get a transmission input shaft turned down to a smaller diameter. It can't be turned down on a lathe because it's hardened. I've checked with a couple of shops here in Mankato and neither said they could do it and that I needed to find a shop that had a radial grinder. I also check with one in O...

On the 70-72, are the heater core tubes that come out of the firewall moved for the AC cars vs the heat-only cars? I'm looking to remove the AC firewall stuff (engine side) from my car.

I know Catco does balancing; but wonder if there is a shop that someone has used and would recommend? To what rpm should it be balanced? Thanks.

We're taking the boys to Monster Jam at the dome tomorrow as Cale's 6th birthday present.

I haven't been to the dome since I was a kid... any recommendations for parking, or avoiding traffic and construction?

So what cool projects do you have planned for the long weekend? I plan on gutting a fifty year old garage so I can install insulation and put up some wallboard. Then redo some electrical and I’ll have about a thousand square feet of dry storage.

Is this possible to change the code from say a 8966 to a 8985 on an old gm ignition cylinder? No locksmiths here in town that I can call. Seems to me that I recall you can take the cylinder apart and do something to change the code; but not sure. Thanks

Today was absolutely gorgeous, and finally a good day for a cruise! Tina and I drove to Fleet Farm in Lakeville this afternoon for some non-oxy, and a guy pulls up to the pump in an orange '70 Boss 302 Mustang that had 60K original miles. It was a 4 speed car, and numbers matching. We got to talking as he...
