    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    you can do a 12v conversion fairly easily. I have kept my car 6v Positive Ground because I want to keep it original. http://www.how-to-build-hotrods.com/6v-to-12v.html

    What modern invention/innovation do you wish had *never* been developed?

    I wear a tie almost every day to work - and the only person at my place of business to do so. The only times I do not is if I am planning on conducting a training in physical restraint (I work in mental health) - those days I slum it and wear either a polo or a short sleeved button down shirt...

    Courage to Wear a Fedora

    Same boat here. Counted five people in the very small Capitol of Vermont yesterday wearing fedoras. That may not seem like a lot, but if you have never been to Montpelier, VT, it is actually a pretty good precentage of the population. Out of those, I only saw one modern crappy fedora. The...

    Things You Learn as an Old Car Driver

    Lizzie - you would not believe the problems I had with the dodge and the master cylinder.....brakes seem to have finally settled in now but what a royal pain in the 4th point of contact it was getting those things working. It took my buddy who is a mechanic 10+ hours to get those things figured...

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    Hey I have a question that hopefully someone knows the answer to: My 39 Dodge's front bench seat keeps slipping out of it's locked position. It does this at the most inopportune times like when going uphill or doing a hill start. It is very bad when someone is on the passenger side, the thing...

    You know you are getting old when:

    You have to teach your kids how to use a rotary phone. My son, 16, looked at the phone, at me and then at the phone and asked "Where are the buttons?"

    Courage to Wear a Fedora

    I think anyone who has started wearing brimmed hats has felt very similar. I know I did and was very uncomfortable with it. It has been a few years now and just the other day I had to run to the local Walmart (hell on earth) and got a few looks, chuckles and comments (Al Capone, Gangster etc)...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Neighbors - the new Seth Rogan film. It reaffirmed my personal belief that Seth Rogan can not act and should be banned from ever being in front of a camera.

    Amusing quotes from people mis-dating you

    Not so much of a misdate issue but funny none the less. I went to my eye doctor yesterday wearing spitshined half brogue shoes, vintigish herringbone wool pants with a windowpane pattern, orange shirt with a 1940s bold look tie and caring my brown royal stetson fedora. After waiting my eye doc...

    The general decline in standards today

    I miss that smell :( I was in for the long haul but a major knee injury at the time of reenlistment (I had extended a number of times) forced me out - or into a MEDAC unit (I was a medic) but I was having too much fun with humping & jumping with the grunts to go to a REMF unit. In hind sight I...

    The general decline in standards today

    I concur. I had a lengthy discussion with my current boss who had developed a new position with in our company. The new position was as team leaders of a 5 person mental health recovery team to work in our mental health facility. In order to be considered you needed to have a bachelors...

    Amusing quotes from people mis-dating you

    Lizzie, I always spitshine my shoes for work. It is a long standing habit that I got into when I was a civil air patrol cadet, and then after 12 years in the Army. I used to own a property management business. When meeting potential tenants the first thing I always did was check out...
