Item: 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix
De-rusted/ deburred/ sanded fan, fan shroud, timing cover, valve covers, breather, A/C dryer bracket, fan guard, some other bits. Fan shroud & breather are painted, rest is ready for prep/ prime/ paint. Need to get my sand blast cabinet up & running; going to swap the sand out for glass bead I think. Also needs new glass- it's been etched by flying sand nearly to the point of opacity.

^ True, however those are also the least ‘affordable’ Teslas. Curious to see what GM defines as ‘affordable’.

Uh-huh. - - - - - The issue with pitching the max range configuration is- it will involve going to RWD, which 95% of personal pickup buyers don't want.- Random Thoughts Thread
Prolly on the high side- I've seen these in this condition more in the $4K range. Super rare- supposedly only 100 '59 Eldorados with buckets.- Random Thoughts Thread

My dealer has a darker red/black ST on the floor- exterior looks pretty good. I don't care for all the asymmetry on the dash tho.- May 2021 Auto Spotting Channel

Maybe WA needs to pass a ‘tarp loaded vehicle’ law instead.- Random Thoughts Thread
No action yet. However, their driveway was heavily aged & cracked before that; the right side had been excavated twice for sewer pipe issues. I have no info on what a power company would be willing to/required to do in a situation like this.- Random Thoughts Thread
Obviously... heavy duty trucks like class 8 are going to be required to run flaps in any state. I kinda just stated that above. Seems Seattle has a lot more on it’s enforcement mind than mud flaps. If you think about it, a vehicle’s tire isn’t throwing rocks from the middle of a tire as often as it’s more likely to be coming from where the tire meets the ground. There; almost nothing is ‘properly covered’. Hm-mmm... I wonder if a vehicle that is scampering to 60 in 3 secs is more often going to be throwing rocks than the average lifted pickup. ?- Random Thoughts Thread
In my state, mud flaps are tied to registered vehicle weight. My COE is exempt because it's registered GVW is 5000 and the 'line' is 6000, even tho it's a cab/chassis with no bed or rear fenders.- Industry News: From 0 to 600 in Less than 3 Years, Electrify America is on a Roll!
That's advertising copy, not necessarily actual fact/truth. A quick Google search shows multiple hits on very recent EA charger issues; they can say "we're dedicated" all day & night, but the proof is in the puddin'. As a rule of thumb; the louder you have to proclaim something, the more likely it's foundation is shaky.- Item: 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Duramax
I think the sensor was because they drove it up the street to fuel it when it was still in transport mode. If so; kinda dumb. To be clear- I have not only not driven it, I haven't even sat in it yet. Salesdude believes it won't go on a Carfax because it hasn't been titled yet - I have not taken possession and not signed the 'delivery form'. Doesn't really matter if I keep it 15+ years. My buddy said I should refuse the truck... but there's no inventory out there and I need to replace mine ASAP. - - - - - Compared to the Q1 average of 11-13 GMCs fitting my bill of cab/box/trim/engine within 100 miles of me, there are now only 3 listed (none of which I'm thrilled how they're outfitted).- Alternative Fuels & Propulsion RANDOM

It's not off the hauler- it's got delivered 4/29. Mechanic was testing sensor repair. But yea- I think I'll angle for 2 payments. - Item: 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix
