Now that I think of it, wonder who it is that writes with a stutter, the sign maker or the property owner.

Found this on a local Jeep Club's forum

Really, it looked like a sledded Karman-Ghia to me, explains why it seems so huge then..........

Is it me, or did that S-Type hearse look like a Taurus wagon?

Nope, don't think he had gotten that far at UTI by the time I came in. Funny, Cavi Boi was encountered at a Pep Boys maybe 5 or 6 years ago How's your local NAPA? Dad went to get u-joints for the front axle of my Little Sister's XJ Briarwood at our local NAPA store and the kid behind the counter kept trying to sell Dad u-joints for the front driveshaft, even though Dad was pointing to the PN for the axle u-joints and telling the kid what he wanted that part not the ones the kid was trying to sell him!

Cripes are these stories funny Believe it or not, the place I got the pic from was a thread on a Jeep forum where a guy started the thread wanting to put a 1-2" body lift on his '99 Cherokee........which is unibody, to prevent tire rubbing.

Great pics, but can I ask what this started as?

Actually, that's the very part I'm talking about that I thought was listed as an exhaust bearing! I went to get wheels cylinders, shoes, and pads for my 1998 Jeep Cherokee Limited last summer so Dad and I could do a brake job on it (still need to before this summer's out, rear brakes have 120k on them but it still stops!) and when the kid behind the parts counter found the part number in hte computer, he asked me if I needed the wheel cylinders for the front or the back.....of a truck has never had drum brakes on the front axle................ Also had a parts boi ask me one time if I knew whether or not the inductions system of my '85 Chrysler Lebaron Turbo (2.2l SOHC) would fit his mid 90's Chevy Cavalier (with the 2.2l OHV)......And yes the Caviler did have a big aluminum wing, glass pack with 5" tail pipe and 1.5" through pipe, and weathered paint, stock rims and hubcaps with the low line textured gray bumpers..........

You mean this? http://www.shoplaser.com/index.html There's just some things you can't make up......................

Funny thing is, IIRC VW actually has either a muffler or exhaust bearing! I think it's the flex joint couplers between the down pipes and the reat of the exhaust system.

Only if they involve model Ford Explorers

This would probably be funnier if it were combined with this like so

I'm guessing he's do that just to "do that", blown away by the work he's doing though!

I have to ask since it's a "dirt road burner", how much "E-100" are you giong to put in the trunk

I posted this on a few forums that give "preview windows" when you roll over the name of the thread, one guy saw the photobucket link when he did that and still tried to click on the YouTube pic. Most people got a laugh out of it, maybe peeved off a couple people, and I think I confused one or two........

Wow, so that's what they're doing with the Colt since removing it from eh US market.

Now that I look at you're problem it sounds a little like a problem my sister had with the alarm installed in her '92 Cherokee Brairwood before she purchased it (don't know if it was factory, but it had been there a long, long time!) Seems that sometimes her truck would refuse to start for no reason, Dad even took the starter over to a local parts house that had a machine to check it them and it worked fine! Finally they figured out that if she tried to unlock the door a second time with her key it would start. Dad even tried to get rid of the alarm system and has had to replace both the alternator and starter in the last year but it still does it from time to time...........

Oh that was good, must have clicked it nearly half dozen times

Might try and PM Phil Patterson, his daughter just bought a '98 Caravan Sport in thr past year IIRC and he' done some of the work on it for her

Has a real CarToons look to it!

hehehe, for some reason the line from some Limp Bizkit song "pop your *** like a zit" came to mind when I read that

Pardon the stupid questions, but what makes that van a "Horst" (I'm mildly familiar what what Horst used to be) and how many of the VW vans could get out of their own way before the Eurovan's hit the market?
