I'll trade your Fox Body heater core (the 68 is relatively painless) for the broken temperature control blend door in my 1999 Expedition...Drop steering column, pull passenger airbag, remove passenger seat and center console, then disassemble the entire dash, pull apart passenger side wheel well...

Too much, maybe??

I would think it's good to have extra nuts.......

Rhein-Main is "closed" but still used. I've been through there a few times in the past, but never got lucky enough to spend the night, let alone leave the terminal. If he is in Ramstein, 1878's are popular, as well as Pirminators. I also had one called Wiezenbier-Hell that was tasty, over...

I managed to get the 1999 Ford Shop manual CD download a couple of years ago, but that site seems to be gone now... Glad you got it figured out.

Makes me think of re-enforcing the floor pans of my Baja Bug. WOW....

Lowes sponsors Jimmy Johnson so they are evil. Home Depot sponsors Tony Stewart so they are evil. I don't have much choice but go to mom and pop shops.... :cross:

Why not?? The Austrailian government has nearly disarmmed all of their "subjects," or made it extremely expensive to own firearms. First everyone had to register all of their firearms, or face penalties. Then they outlaw a particular class of firearms, and make anyone who has a firearm in...

Thank the Lord I have 3 sons... High school grad presents will be a box of condoms, a bullet proof vest, and a suitcase. Give 'em a hearty goodluck handshake, and wish them well.... Then fill their rooms with dirt to make sure they can't move back...

Man that sucks. No back ups??

Yes, but I only get so much $$ for brew equipment. Can't afford the reloading equipment, too. Plus I live in base housing, and don't have a garage. Don't think uncle sam (let alone SWMBO) would like me storing bags/kegs of powder and boxes of primers here in the house. I'm pleasantly...

I've got twins that'll be 9 in March, and a "Tag a long" that'll be 7 in Feb. I guess I need to get them into training...

Yeah, mil surp 7.62x54R for my M-N has doubled in the last year.

merc is short for merczephyr, a name I came up with on auto forums when I had a Mercury Zephyr 302/at yada yada. I no longer have the Zephyr, and have since just used merc when it's available. Other Mercurys I've owned: 1964 Mercury Comet Cyclone 289/4 spd 1979 Mercury Capri Ghia 5.0/at...
