And those nickels will go right to someone else once I get them...
That's what makes the gun world go round.
And those nickels will go right to someone else once I get them...
I'm saving all my pennies to give to somebody, not sure who yet.
You got it!...ah there it is.
DIBS!
Range first, car shopping second. That way, you will be much less likely to get angry and do your target shooting at the dealership.Morning folks. Trying to decide whether to hit the range this morning or go car shopping.
Rusty pennies for me!
We sales people are just misunderstood, we are just trying to sell you something you need so we can buy more guns!Best part of car shopping = cars are nice to look at
Worst part of car shopping = car salesman
Runner up worst part of car shopping = no price on the windshield, which means get out the car, try to find the price, car salesman was stalking you from across the lot and is now right behind you
Runner up best part of car shopping = telling the salesman you need plenty of trunk space to put tons of guns, ammo, and gear into
Just thought I'd share this gem with y'all. It's been kicking my butt all week after all.
1953 Oldsmobile 98. Came in a couple months back for a front suspension rebuild. When it initially came in about a year ago the brakes were almost non existent, thanks to shoes slathered in grease and oil. Got that all fixed up, had to do some bearing replacement while in there which proved to be difficult. Someone along the line has "installed" 1950 Pontiac suspension parts on this old girl. After the correct parts were ordered car was road tested and everything good.
Came back the next week and said it was pulling left on braking. Bring it in, adjust brakes, road test and everything seems ok, except I notice one side of the car was not diving while heavy braking. It was a squeaker anyway, pulled onto the lift and greased the chassis, couple zerks didn't take grease they were completely frozen up. Well before we can go any further we needed to get those bad parts out and fresh parts in. The customer was ok with driving it until winter when we could tear into it.
When it came in we did some further digging and saw that when the Pontiac parts were "installed" they actually had cut the spindles and welded them together . Big no no. Not safe at all. We were able to source new and used Oldsmobile pieces for it. Get it back together, after alignment it pulls hard left on braking. WTH!? After adjusting brakes, up on jacks about 12 times, drums on and off, swapping drums and shoes left to right, it was determined one the the shoes had been 'glazed' over..... Got that taken care of, back together and adjusted. Car now stops straight!
After a week of getting my butt kicked by an old car, it felt nice to take it down the road and it do what it is supposed to do. Cruise.
Has become one of my favorite cars to see come back in. Even after all the fits it's thrown, she's just so darn beautiful and she's got a better mustache than DOGG.
When numbskulls butcher up an old car it is tough to find everything on the 1st go round.
Any idiot that would weld cast spindles is.......well.......wait for it.................A ****ing idiot.
Yes... When I saw what I thought to be welds, I said "no, that can't be. Nobody can be that stupid." I was wrong..... Sure there are ways to do it and get it done and some cases it will be just fine, but a SPINDLE!?
