What outdoor car covers do you use ? I have been using cheep covers that cost about $25.00 and they last 2 years max before falling apart. I see covers advertised with a 4 year warranty for around $300.Am I better off just replacing the cover ,the car is in rough shape waiting it's turn to be rebuilt. Thanks in advance, Tom

I need to ship a car from Austin, Texas to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Can anyone recomend a good company to do buisiness with? Are there companies that you would avoid? Best Regards, Tom

I am deeply sadened by this news. I bought many parts from Ross and found him to be a great guy to do buisiness with. He was always helpfull when I had questions. He will be missed, my condolences to his family. Tom

The flywheel has 153 teeth and is centerforce brand. Sumo thanks for the price info. Tom

I am going back to school and will be selling some parts. I have 2 t-56 trannys with flywheel and clutch that are going to be up for sale ,what are they worth these days? I have have someone who is just interested in a flywheel,it is unused but has some surface rust what would be a fair price for it? The flywheel is a centerforce for old style chevy motors. Thanks for any input. Tom

I talked with the owner of the red 240 conversion for a while ,the car was very well done. I'm in St. louis Park . The car is apart, your welcome to stop by if you want. Email me for a tele #. Later, Tom

I would recomend a heated floor with a drain and running water for those who live in the salt belt . I am getting too old to enjoy laying on a freezing floor while working cars anymore. It would be nice to be able to wash the salt off the car and not have it coated again on the drive home. Tom

Hey Mike, Happy Birthday from me too. Tom

You may be a redneck if, you go to the hospital after saying "hey watch this" . I'm glad to hear every thing worked out ok. Later, Tom

I get crazed when the car in front of me entering the freeway stops at the end of the ramp .You then see the driver start looking at traffic waiting for a large opening instead of merging at speed with the flow of traffic. Tom

If you want to go low budget use a hacksaw to cut your pipe and check into renting a welder for a day or weekend. You might also talk to your local welding supply shop about practicing on their demo equipement. Later ,Tom

Do you still need an alternator? I can help you out if you do. Later, Tom

Nice work on the install ,do you have a fuel cell or the stock tank.Are there any photos of your connection to the tank? Do you mind if I ask where you found the cap, and the price? Later ,Tom

Has anyone had any experience with the hvlp guns that are sold with special compressors ?These (turbine) units are supposed to warm and dry the air giving a better finish. I have seen them offered in the Eastwood and several other catalogs,I believe Grace was the manufacturer. Thanks, Tom

Mike,I hope you realise that all those gold chains you felt compelled to wear after purchasing the vett. absorb midrange tones.....just Kidding! Later,Tom

Flash, you hit your head about 2 years ago,and you say there was no damage? Wasn't it about 2 years ago that you decided to build a hybridz. Later ,Tom

Maybe the Martains have taken offence at the notion of being probed. Probe this earthling!!!

Myron, give Ross at modern motorsports a look .He is a great guy to deal with and has a lot of goodies for the z. Tom

It's t-shirt weather here in Minnesota a tepid 26.degrees above zero. I think i'll go work on my tan. Tom

Hi Mike, Here are a couple ideas ,how about a package shipping buisiness. The customer can fax a letter, have you wrap and box their goods and arrainge for shipper pickup.Several of these stores in my area have been bought up by ups and fed ex.If you started in a growing area you could make money while growing the buisiness.later you might be able to sell it to one of the big boys and continue to operate as a franchise. The other idea is to run a combat flight simulater this is the ultimate computer game.these are real flight simulaters that the customers can fly. You set up squadrons and groups can fly against others or the computer. This is an offshoot of a local ontrepanuer who used off the shelf parts to design an (inexpensive) simulater for an aerospace defence contractor. Later, Tom

I,ll help move the average towards the grey zone.I turned 48 this past december. Tom

I found it interesting that the teens were driving at over 100 mph on a small spare tire ! I think this is a classic case of darwinism weeding out the unfit. Too bad the courts will probably blame the cops,and give the parents a huge settlement for raising idiots . Tom

I would like an xlarge please. Coming soon to a tv near you---Hybridz eye for the car guy. Tom
