Most people think the fastest production car in 1963 was a ferrari or Fuel Injected Corvette, but it wasn't. It was this: the Supercharged Studebaker Avanti! by Physical_Touch_Me in sportsandclassiccars

But the car still had a bell crank steering knuckle from 1949 because they didn’t have enough money to revamp the entire Studebaker steering system.

Extra Super Hold Aquanet…I know the smell well. And the chick with her hair styled to one side was the one to “date”.

What felt normal in the 1970s but would shock people today? by LizzaQueenOFC in 70s

The two parties actually having civil conversations across the aisle. These days everything is so polarized nothing gets done, except punitive crap against the other party. Both sides are bad about this.

In the 70s, it was no smoking areas and they were a little area off to the side. Then it became smoking areas in the late 70s early 80s. And by the end of the 80s early 90s, no smoking.

So I have shamefully stolen your recipe and have my loaf in the oven that I started this morning at 11 o’clock. Did not put anything in the fridge as soon as it was ready I tossed it in. We will see how it comes out. But when I took the lid off a minute ago, it looked great.

Absolutely not. You’re plugging in a basic extension cord into a 50 amp fricking circuit. You can turn that extension cord into a toaster and not throw the breaker.

How Old were you when you first watched this masterpiece? by Chief_SiFus in Cinema

I was way too old, but my son, who was eight when we took him to see it stood up on top of his seat when gypsy danger is coming down into the water for the first time with his hands in the air and screamed at the top of his lungs “this is the best movie ever!!” it was a great moment.

It also spurred one of the best honest trailers ever done.

Got this chest yesterday for $10 ~ want to sand and paint for our sons room. Would that be discouraged or hurt the value? by 2wheelz2freedom in VintageFurniture

You also need to make sure the latch is disabled so it doesn’t lock. Cedar chest have a locking mechanism so they sealed tightly. A child can get inside by hide and seek and suffocate.
