When I woke up this morning, the house air conditioner/heat pump wasn't working. Breaker tripped, so I reset it and the air conditioner screamed at me then tripped the breaker again. Compressor is bad, might need another unit. I just got this one (used) six months ago.

Central Florida here. It's daylight and I just saw three large drones fly over on the same path. They looked dirty so I tried to wash them with a high pressure water hose as they flew by.

It's not the same, but it reminds me of Mystery Men.

Do you also have 1:1 project cars?
Tabbysdaddy replied to ctruss53's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The reason I hadn't done anything with the rallies was one tire was unusable. I got them off a truck at the junkyard and it looked like someone power braked the tread off the tire before they sent the truck to the junkyard. Online showed Pep Boys has them, so I went to the one closest to me. I figured if they didn't have one in stock I could order it. They said long discontinued, but they did have one in stock. So now all four are on the van with center caps. Yes, I like that much better. If you're curious, the other two tires on the aluminum rims were fine. -

Reason #2 the van has been sitting so long, bad tire: I didn't notice it because it's on the inside and the tread is thick on the outside. I'm going to write a strongly worded letter to the tire company about how their cheap tires wear out unevenly. I was going to put the rear on the front and use one of the rallies that I bought for my other truck temporarily, but the rear wasn't all that great either so I swapped on two. I guess I'll have to check the condition of the two tires on the other side. I knew the rallies are 8 wide, I thought the aluminum ones were too but they're 6.5 wide. I'm actually liking the rallies on the van so I'm thinking of keeping them on and using the aluminum ones on the truck instead. What do you guys think? I have all eight center caps even though there's only one of each on the rear. -

The van has been sitting for a couple months, I didn't want to use it until I changed the oil and transmission fluid. Haven't had time, but I have it on jack stands right now with the oil plug out and the transmission pan off. This is the oddest example of shrinkflation I've ever seen. -
Sort of looks like the thing I had to bite down on when the dentist took x-rays of my mouth. Back when I had teeth.

That's a cool advent calendar. My wife got me a Hot Wheels one last year. -
Merry Christmas!

What did you see on the road today?

I saw a Transformers Decepticon Mustang police car, but couldn't get a picture. -
Of 1957 Chevy Bel Air's - 2024, which to buy?
Tabbysdaddy replied to Jonathan's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
If it was molded in red, you could paint it white. Then it would turn pink. -

What Did You See In Your Yard Today?
Tabbysdaddy replied to Tim W. SoCal's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Water. Lots of water. The hurricane hasn't even made it to me yet. The garage is to the right and has started taking in water. My house is a good three to four feet higher. -
'68-72 Chevy PickUp rummors about reissue?
Tabbysdaddy replied to Sergey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
That's what you get for thinking. Two totally different subjects. -

Tabbysdaddy replied to Sergey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Why would they tie together two different subjects? One is about Round2 the other is about Moebius. -
Which would you Choose?

An HEI distributor still has an ICM. -

Tabbysdaddy replied to Falcon Ranchero's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'm a GM guy, I like the Nova, but I'm not anti Ford and that's a good Ford. You can say to keep extra points with the Nova, the ICM equivalent. I'll bet, as long as the check engine light isn't on, that the Lincoln runs closer to like new than the Nova does, thanks to that pesky fuel injection.
