Haven't been on this forum in a long time, and it's been years since a big oak tree limb totaled the last MK8 I had. But I still have a bunch of stuff for them and I'm cleaning a lot of clutter out of my shop. There's ,a full set of HID lights for Gen 1 plus some extra pieces for them. a limited...

Have my '94 up on 4 ramps to replace front bumper cover and do a good bit of neglected PM, including a drain of coolant and refill with new. The owner's manual says 16 qt. capacity. Opened the drain on pass side radiator and only got out 4 qts., leaving 12 qts in rest of system. Need to get out...

Last Friday, while in VA for the Thanksgiving holidays, I visited the above museum in Quantico, VA. Folks, this place is the absolutely most powerful experience I have ever had at any kind of museum, display, or reenactment of any kind. I spent 7 hours touring and looking and feeling, and tears...

Found this link on another forum I visit called Practical Machinist and I felt it worthwhile to help spread the word: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=194915 Dave

OK yall, let me make it clear straight off, I have no connection with this car or it's owner. I don't know him, never met him, just talked on the phone today. He sounds young on the phone to me, but what the hell, everybody IS young to me! Sounds as if he buys, sells and trades vehicles as a...

Amsoil is the first name in synthetic lubricants and was founded by Col. Al Amatuzio when he left the US Air Force. He had been a jet fighter pilot and knew that jet engines operated at rpm levels we only dream about with reciprcaing engines. He also knew this was done with synthetic oil. He...

Anyone know of a web site where I can research the going prices of what I call specialty cars. My GF's brother has a '60 T-Bird taht he has had for a lot of years, and he is thinking of putting it up for sale. But he says he has no idea of the value of the car. He is not at all PC savvy, and...

OK, Sat., 11/08/03 is SSSHS3 @ Atlanta, GA. As I have previously reported, the weather forecast calls for partly cloudy, mid 60s. Perfect racing weather. On the other site, Calvin Louie reports an unavoidable obligation elsewhere. Doodaa says his MK8 is in such bad shape he's afraid he'd wind...

Forecast for ATL area, including Commerce, GA {site of dragstrip} is partly cloudy and mid 60s for this Sat., 11/08/03. Last year we only had 3 MK8s there, one was modded heavily and broke early on. That only left Calvin Louie and I. Wit my total lack of experience, I was little if any help...

I'm going back to Commerce GA 11/8/03 for SSHS3, and I'm looking for opinions on shifting 1st to 2nd manually versus letting trans shift automatically. I don't expect to have to worry about 3rd, as car is same as last year, and at 94,95 mph, you are still below redline with 3.08 gears. The MK8...

All of a sudden, the topics in each forum are no longer listed by latest reply, but just helter skelter in an order I can't fathom. Can/will someone tell me how to change the listin order back to putting the threads with most recent replies at the top of the page?

All I can say is that I have been in love with the original Continental since I first saw it in a movie that involved the attack on Pearl Harbor, and it wasn't "Tora, Tora, Tora". Being a street rodder at heart, I would love to take an original and keep the appearance the same, and insert a...

Anybody using Comcast Cable as your ISP and also cable access? If so,how do you like their service, rates, etc.? I ask because Comcast has bought out Insight, the cable provider here in Griffin, GA. They have been doing a major upgrade of the system, fiber optics, etc. The word is that they...
