Re: And A Few Years Down The Road...

Yeah,but somehow I can imagine there has been a "whirling disease" attack a time or two when you could have used one:-) Bob (I smiled when I said it)

Re: Biggest tire on 15in rim?

I don't know.I will tell you I spent some time thinking in terms of the 165-15 load range "C" tire that used to be standard for a VW bus and was a good choice on a Volvo Wagon.Baja Bug days there was variety!! Now,seems like a thing of the past.Couldn't find much. My logic,semi-tall,narrow...

Re: Zen and the Toyota Tercel Wagon

I will happily defer to your more correct recollection of the facts!! No problem,Tom,but,you can tell,Hell I was there!!! As a junior high kid I used to walk about 31/2 miles to a dealership that sold AH3000's and I'd sit in that sucker and dream... Right now,my twisted sense of aesthetics loves the...

Re: Oil Survey

One thing to consider on viscosity.On a newer,tighter clearance engine,thinner oil wil flow more through the bearing surfaces and carry away more heat.Flow is good.Forcing thick oil with a brand new high pressure pump through tight clearances will acc...

Re: Zen and the Toyota Tercel Wagon

That wasn't the same issue with the Denbeigh Super Chauvinist III was it? Or the road test of the Morgan Plus Four when you could still buy one? Or the brand new 427 AC Cobra you could buy for $ 7500 or so?Wasn't an XKE about $3500 then,and they even went through an "uncool" period where y...
