Hello everyone, been a while since I've been on. I recently acquired some spare parts including a transmission because my buddy sold his truck. After taking the top off, I noticed the front part of the shaft, outside the bell housing has play. On the inside of the transmission, the gear...
Yesterday, I was approached by a guy who may be a big help in our quest for better/cheaper fuel alternatives. Not only is he an MV nut, but he is a chemist that specializes in fuel/oil additives. He is interested in our cause and wants to help. Here is his website: bndautomotive.com. Tell...
I figured I'd start freshening up the deuce with the new fenders and doors. Well I ended up taking the whole front end off, the hood, and the windows. Yeah I'm balls deep into this project! I at put my whistler on while I was at it! YEAH YEAH, I'll have pics of my naked deuce soon. Any...
One of my friends put a flier on my windshield advertising a MV show in Alliance, Ohio on the weekend of June 18, 19, 20. Held by the Marlboro MV Club. It's located at the old Taylorcraft aircraft plant from WWII. Has any Ohio Steel Soldiers heard about it? If so, anyone going? I would sure...
Well if it's not one thing..... Long story short, I limped about a mile home in third gear. The pedal was rock hard on the last stop sign before home. Stupid me, I should have pulled over. When I parked it, smoke came out from the front and the smell of brakes. I crapped my pants.... I...
I have read, read and re-read the forums and TMs. Clinto's write up was well done! I have learned alot and it is my turn to pay the favors forward. The PB Blaster has been doing it's magic. I start tear down today and will accompany with pics.

So the my chronic brake switch issues have made me a better mechanic and also have me thinking. I recently had a hydraulic brake light switch fail, well multiple switches fail and ended up changing over to air.
I also have a breather on my master cylinder cover. It was pointed out to me by a...
I had problems with the NOS air upgrade switch not turning the lights on. I hope I corrected the problem by putting a couple drop of air tool oil in it. After I reinstalled it, the lights work. Go figure.
I have been following this post-RMGILL vs DEKALB COUNTY. Here is my thought: This guy fought city hall and won, which establishes a precedence for all of us...I saw one comment that said this should be a sticky. Mr. Gill has paid a price for a sticky and for our unique hobby. How many Steel...
I took the warpig to car show today. Glad the rain held off....I'd hate to see those $40,000.00 cars have to leave. Anyway, had the pleasure of parking in no man's land again:evil:. They didn't want ruts in the grass.. Had the same sarcastic questions....Why and what are you going to do with...

I was a car show today. A guy asked me if I knew of anyone interested in a 53 GMC Duece . He said it has no bed because he used it as a drilling truck. He claims it is in great shape, brakes are new, and ready to drive. He did not know what to sell it for. Anyone know what these are going...
I have brake lights!!!!! I will be calling Saturn tomorrow about the bad NOS switch because it kept my brake lights on no matter what I did. I have the Napa version now, but it's not P/N ECH SL133 discussed in previous posts, its ECH SL134. I installed it and the lights worked but then stayed...
So last week I noticed no brake lights. Everything else worked. Started researching SS. Narrowed it down to either faulty grounds or the brake switch. I jumpered the plug and had brake lights. I tried to order the conversation kit from Saturn-out of stock and don't know when they will be...
