  1. It's blowing the fuse when you shut it off. Most ,not all, ground out the coil. It's referred as the "kill" wire. Mine has a capacitive ignition (cdi) which does the opposite and removes 12v when the key is off. What engine is on the rider? Check for a short in the headlight circuit, as that and the anti backfire solenoid are shared on most ignition switches. Then check the ignition switch for an internal short.
  2. Absolutely ludicrously insane ride ,Zippi. I love it. It's like a full bodied fuel altered. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  3. Thank you ,Greg. All the tips and tutorials guys like yourself have posted here have really helped me step up my skills. Much appreciated πŸ‘πŸ‘
  4. No problem, the it's pretty durable, I used a morter and pestle to grind it bit finer. Use a brush you don't care about. Takes a couple coats.You can also apply the the createx straight and sprinkle it on to build it up.
  5. Really nice Buick. The pearl white was a great choice and those wheels look absolutely perfect on there. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  6. I think it's the managers decision, and ultimately it's the agreement of walmart corporate with kit manufacturers that determines what kits they stock.
  7. Nice looking build, Caleb. I like the aggressive tire you got on there.
  8. Yeah, between the dirt track guys and the rust, they aren't really around. Even a clean 3rd gen is hard to find, though they're really not my thing.
  9. Thank you, I used actual rust I scraped off some steel mixed with createx intercoat.
  10. I'm pretty fortunate after reading some of these post. The neighbors below my property I've only had one small occasion, saw him walking through the woods past my yard on my property, just let him know I keep my dogs off the leash and that was enough for the light bulb to go off. no more strolls in the woods. The guy across the street, total moron but no issues my way,though he did set his property on fire last year during a burn ban.
  11. Clean looking camaro, not many left in that shape in New York. Dirt track guys cut them up for racecars.
  12. Great save with the paintπŸ‘. Awesome color.
  13. I get field mice in the garage, peanut butter works great.
  14. Really bold colors. This build looks awesome. The tri-tone interior sets it off perfectly.
  15. Looks like a juvenile black rat. I've heard them called "roof rats".
  16. They've flown passed my head, sound like small aircraft whizzing by. They're neat little creatures. I would not blame them after the scare, they catch you off guard
  17. My wife has a bunch of feeders, she's been trying to get them to eat out of her hand,something she's seen online. She's infatuated with them.
  18. Awesome looking 56. Very classy.
  19. Thanks Zippi, glad you like itπŸ‘. Hopefully I can build "clean" hot rod, I've got a couple others in the stash.
  20. Beautiful trio. Awesome work with the woodgrain and details underneath.
  21. Nice job replicating the damage, the build looks fantastic. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  22. Thank you. The history of the frenzel supercharger was why I chose that, plus who doesn't love old hopped up flatheads
  23. Me either. Maybe working on a sequel. πŸ€”
  24. Beautiful color and wheel choice. Gonna be a real sharp ride when finished.
