Thread: What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0

in action. loud huh?

Fog removal machine! Now make that a box with a paint arrestor filter and you can rattle can all winter.

My car lot buddy just called to see if I wanted a 97 red GT sedan with smahed door and parts only title for $600. Drives good. I passed.

Its kinda wierd not having my GT here though.

Took some meguiars diamond cut compound to the camaro, and to think it looked brown when I got it. Cleaned up so nicely. Went over and waxed it with meguiars NXT, and when people saw the result I had 4 ppl willing to pay me to do their cars next lol.
(Also put a spectre intake and crankcase breather on it)

Cleaned up around my garage today and found some "antiques". Has any one under 30 ever even seen any of these?
Especially that device front & center?

i know what all them things are.

I'm not under 30 (just turned 36), but I know what they are.

I figured you would, lets hear from the young'uns.......

Just used to working with hand-me-downs. Born in 96 and got into cars in 2013. Grandpa passed away so I got a lot of his old tools

I cleaned plugs on the 455 yesterday. Meh.

I throw those oil can things out ALLLLL the time, to me they are worthless

but what if you find a old can of oil you need to use? the worst part of them was when they changed to cardboard sides, if they were to old the side would cave in as you pushed the spout in, then of course they leaked all over.

Thanks again War, did the same thing to our 05 Monte today. Same parts, same cuts, same result. That's why I like to own similar year and make cars, once I do one kind of repair, I'm already ahead of the game for the next one. Right now I have 05GP base, 06GP base, and 05 Monte Carlo LT. I haven't found much difference between all 3 (except obviously body and interiors). Back in the 90's we went through 4 or 5 Ford Escorts/Mercury Lynx's, same thing. We would always ride around with a spare ignition module, because they would quit w/no warning and it was only a 10 minute parking lot/side of the road job, lol. Man, I'm glad those days are over, I'm a larger human, and squeezing into those cars and having no A/C, no power options, no power under the hood either really sucked! But that's what we could afford at the time. At least I wouldn't have been heartbroken if somebody wiped me out! Later......E.

Lol not a problem.
