    New Lift has Arrived!!

    The ceiling is 11ft, and in the pic, the car is up on the second from the top lock. It will go one lock higher and the car still fits, so I would guess about 10'6".

    New lift is here!!! If you are a DIYer and want to assemble a lift by yourself, here's some extra tools you will need: A real help to get it off the truck and move it around. It weighs 1450 lbs. (The truck driver was really relieved to see it.) And one of these: (That particular runway is...

    New lift on order!!

    Barry, We'll be travelling down to Southeastern VA for the birth of my 3rd grandchild at the end of Feb, and down to Northern VA for the 4th grandchild in mid-April. Maybe we can stop by during one of those trips. We'll see as the time gets closer. My car needs a long run anyway..:)

    How Many Of You Are Choke-Less...??

    When I had my 62 about 35 years ago, I too was chokeless... During a little test run, without air cleaners, I had the carb backfire on a cold day..... Then the rest of the car burned to the ground. Now I always run a choke, wait till it's warmed up before going anywhere, and always have the...

    New lift on order!!

    Hey Barry.. Everything is good up here. Everyone is doing fine. The trans job isn't too bad, the hardest part is lowering the rear of the engine down the right amount, then turning the trans just the right way so it will come out. My first time took a bit of finagling, the second time it was...

    New lift on order!!

    Due to the holidays, I don't expect to see it until early January. Normally ships about 2-3 weeks after order. They build them (pull individual parts from inventory, put all the parts in the boxes, etc...) after the order is placed. Then the cross-country shipping. Photos will be provided.

    New lift on order!!

    Pilot bushing replacement is the same job as a clutch replacement. First you have to get the transmission out, which is a job in itself. Then remove the bellhousing & clutch assembly. Finally, remove and replace the pilot bushing. While you are in there, if you need a clutch or throwout...

    Thanks to the Holiday generousity of my wife, my ACS-7000 was ordered a couple of days ago. Yeah, I know, I haven't been on here too much lately.... New job takes a lot of my time (120 mile drive round trip every day) and no internet access at work. Still working on the house remodel too...

    I have a 91 Isuzu Trooper, 2.8 TBI, 4X4, 5spd. Two problems: It will turn over and start but stalls in about 1 second. It takes about 10 tries to get the truck to start. I have to keep my foot to the floor or it won't start. Once it starts, I still have to keep my foot to the floor as it...
