    How Old Is Too Old?

    OK. I'm not the oldest driver but I might be the oldest women driver? I still work on my cars and even drive to Events and in Parades. I've won the Club Chicken Twice and am hoping to give it away before the season is over. I'm 81 and still above the grass. Barb Birt

    Taillight lens ID

    Now that the quality of reproduction taillights lenses have improved (no more peeling paint) I'm unsure how to tell a fake from an original. I have some with 11 flutes and 12 flutes. I have a small stack from an estate. None are for the drum style. Some are all red and some amber and red...

    Engine won't turn over

    I don't know if this is a old or new issue. I bought the car last year and only had time to put it in storage until I returned from the winter in Tucson.

    Stuck starter..I give up

    Thanks for the tips. I'll give them a try this afternoon. I don't have a dead blow hammer but lusted after on at Harbor Freight. I just hope my flywheel teeth stay put during this process. I did unbolt it but it's so tight there's no movement. It as if it's welded to the flywheel housing...

    Stuck starter..I give up

    I've had my starter stuck only a couple times in 40 years and have been able to get it unstuck with minimal difficulty. I finally have given up on it this time. My old lady legs just don't have the strength to rock the car back and forth. I've searched the barn and watched a video and didn't...
