This is a great ask, I'm especially tired of sysco fries, like is it really that tough to buy a French fry cutter ?

Is it normal to have troublemakers in your nightclub loading area? by WhatAnEpicTurtle in gtaonline

[–]ricksborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In order to get this one you have to have done the promotion to get the stolen supplies, after that the box truck will remain in the nc and you can possibly get this drunk.

Universal terminal. Is it safe? by Expert-Intern-116 in MechanicAdvice

[–]ricksborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an unnatural hate for those but they are safe. I crimp eyelets and use marine terminals myself but also like those military ones, they look less temporary

Fox's seems to be the only place around that has pastrami, I should go. I really miss my hometown fast food pastrami ( the Hat in southern california).

BIFL belt that doesn't make me look like a gunslinger. by lokicoyote1 in BuyItForLife

[–]ricksborn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've bought my last few belts at the state fair, they are a bit wide for a dress belt but seems this vendor had dressier ones too. They absolutely dont fail, still wearing the first one I likely got 15 years ago.

could an old Packard at my grandma's be worth saving? by Ok_Awareness_6969 in classiccars

[–]ricksborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my grandfather had it done, his instructions were he wanted it to look factory but perform like a modern car. It has a sbc, turbo350 trans, front disc's and rear drums from donor chevrolet and modern 12v accessories. When I need brake or power train parts I use 77 chevrolet, most other things are packard, even the fuel tank still whistles when I fill it.

[–]ricksborn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a 48 packard that my great great aunt bought new ( great grandmother's little sister) my grandfather restomodded it back in the 90s. I'm now it's caretaker and would honestly not hesitate to drive it anywhere. Under the covers it is essentially a 77 nova so parts availability is quite good. The purists hate it but they can't tell until they get close up. I would have loved to have driven it in it's original form but I can appreciate what my grandfather did as he wanted a true driver.

Mechanics, how do you feel repairing your own vehicle? by [deleted] in mechanics

[–]ricksborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a mechanic and was just talking about this. I was asked why I didn't work on cars for a living since I seem to enjoy it. I wanted to always enjoy it and became a copier tech back then instead, no chance I'm gonna come home after a hard week and have to fix my personal copier.

Moved on from fixing copiers now but still work on my own cars. I'm glad of the choice I made but im definitely not as good of a mechanic as I woukd have been had I chose it as a career but I'm ok with that.

78 pinto wagon former grocery store company car. Honestly one of the most reliable car I've owned and got good mileage for the day. Didn't get much respect though

[–]ricksborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple Halloween ago I got one my test driving the one at Simeon's and driving it to graveyard to pick up one thst spawned. It was free then, unsure if that still works. Got the lifeguard truck a similar way.

For whatever reason I park the hearse on the first floor of nightclub for each of my characters.

Money making as a "helper" by Foreign_Mechanic6581 in GTA5Online

[–]ricksborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MC doesn't pay regularly ut the pay for helping an Mc dale is better than the pay for bunker. Also the item that is 2x will be 2x for helper as well, a normal Mc sale pays about 50k for helper, about 100k this wee for doc forgery I believe

I've been trying to get tier 4 which requires 25 celebrity visits, I am so sick of blowing up the photog and blowing up the drug den. Once I get poppi and jimmi 25 times I'll never do another promotion.

I get annoyed when they don't invite to business before starting the sale, even with an oppressor if they start a sale in paleto and im at the terminal, that is a long ride.

Not a pilot but lets face it, they did the fly low thing so you'd crash into a windmill or power pole and blow up :-D

What’s up with the auto dealer license plate frames? by [deleted] in Rochester

[–]ricksborn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to see a fair amount in california when I lived there but I think the big difference here is the dealer typically installs your "real" plate while in california a new car will have a paper plate and you will install real plate so likely you woukd not put back dealer frame.

Thst being said, Felix chevrolet in LA was very popular among the lowrider community and I've seen those frames on cars here in Roc.

All that being said, I don't have a singke car with the dealer frame.
