No, not the foolish, the government. Er,, wait, I guess it's the same thing, isn't it! YOUR tax dollars at work! Just consider it bailout money for the tire companies!

Not as long as E-bay is getting a share of the profits! But I can tell you this, there are a LOT of lawsuits in the works over E-bay auto sales! One of them is bound to have an effect.

Yes, SUMMER is coming and I need AC!

OK guys it's been nearly two months. Surely someone had made some progress on installing one of these so let's here some details and see some pictures, I'm considering buying one of these so even if you're not finished I'd like to see how the installations are going!

Trog & NDT, When you converted to DOT 5, how thorough did you have to be about getting out the older brake fluid? Will draining the old fluid and a pressurized flush with DOT 5 do it or does the system need to taken completely apart and all the seals replaced?

Thanks NDT and Trogg. That's what I thought. That's difference between brake fluid that is hydroscopic (DOT 3, etc) and the fluid used in a DOT 5 system. Prior to Dot 5, the fluids were hydroscoptic and would absorb moisture right out of the air and eventually rust ALL the steel...

I wasn't aware of yearly vs permanent Antique tags. Apparently my DMV office isn't either! Not surprising since they can't even issue them. I doubt LEO is any better informed about the different antique/Horseless Carriage tags than the DMV so I'm not going to worry about it. FWIW I got my...

I just registered mine here in Florida this past week. I TRIED to register it as an Antique*. The DMV said that there are no restrictions on it's usage. I could have registered it as a Horseless Carriage but that does have the restriction that it can only be used to go to and from shows. DMV...

ROFL! I usually figure it out when my M-37 won't go over about 1 MPH in first gear!

I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to decide if I should use DOT 5 in my M-37 but I have no information about what the seals are made of so I don't know if DOT 5 is safe or not and I haven't found anyone else that's using it. I may be wrong but I thought DOT 5 was NOT hydroscopic and that's what...

I've been told that there's a place on the south side of Lake Okeechobee that has a lot of military vehicles but I don't know where it is and I think the info is old so it may not even exist any more. Let me know if you find out more about it. There's also a place on S Orange Blossom Trail...

I've always been told that it's illegal for anyone to ride in a towed vehicle here in Florida but I can't state that I know for a fact that it's true. Steering trouble such as this is widely known in the M-37 community. The only real solution that anyone has found AFIK is to trailer the...

Thanks but I couldn't get the picture to post so no one knew what I was taking about and the picture is gone now so it'll have to wait till the next time.

PSJ. This may help. It's a layout of all the controls and instruments for the M-37. <http://m37.crwdesigns.com/diagrams.htm>

I would check the engine oil before I did anything. Also make sure it's out of gear before you try to start it. I would dump about a tablespoon of light oil (ATF or Marvel Mystery Oil, etc) into each spark plug hole and turn the engine over a few times to loosen things up and to lubricate the...

I don't think that a seller would gain much just by a buyer posting an introduction. After all the information in the introduction could be completely bogus. I would suggest that sellers (AND buyers!) use a bit of common sense, especially in odd transactions such as these, and one of the logical...

Can you register it as an antique military vehicle? Old MVs can be registered cheaply here in Fla and AFIK that applies to trailers too.

He must have meant $30,000 invested by the government! 30Gs would buy a LOT of rattle cans!

Dood? wheelz? HELLO? When did the Valley Girls join SS?

I haven't tried to post pictures to the classified section but I did try to post them in the forums and I could never get them to load. (I WAS using 640 x 480 and smaller photos!) I did some testing in the Testing forum and found that it wasn't the pixel size that mattered but the file size...
