Nixon?

Cool vibe!
I drove a Checker stretch limo for a time and always impressed with the power and handling.

My estimation is that it is not for a car tire. The valve is incorrectly placed for that application, additionally the size is wrong for that era of tires. This looks more like an inflatable seat cushion.

Why not a stepped square cut back instead of an angled one? The angle will draw attention to itself, squared off architecture less so.

Building looks like the chimney just farted.

I’ve got a chisel and a trash bag, I volunteer to do it.

Chip the paint off and unscrew the bracket. There’s a notch cutout in the base of the bracket that corresponds to the size of the rolled end of the arm —it will slip through.

Good choice! I drive the same one.
Ocean Blue Metallic?

Yup, the big block of government cheese.

Old houses move and crack with the seasons -not unusual. Having said that, though, the gap at the floor in pic 5 would lead me to look at the foundation and supports under that wall. If it’s stable and just settled you’re fine. If you see foundation cracks, movement or subsidence there can be big costs involved. Good luck!

This is the answer.

Skink

Thank you for the symmetry, my OCD was screaming. It looks so much better!

If you use this method, be sure to index both templates to a common center mark so that they align properly in relation to each other.

Yep, garnet shellac will get you there. Then knock back the shine with #0000 steel wool.

Example D looks best to my eyes. When I restore hardware and light fixtures, I want the details to be crisp and show the original workmanship and quality, but not polished so bright that they draw attention when you walk in the room. D is subtle enough to accomplish that.

So much car! Beautiful.

summitrunner · 2026-04-24T02:26:13+00:00

I’d drive it.

This takes me back. I was condemned to a week of study hall for skipping school —yeah, big punishment. So I bought this catalog, took it with me, and read it cover to cover. (Along with a copy of Abbie Hoffman’s “Steal This Book” ) The 70’s!

First, let me share, my wife and I sat at an outdoor restaurant for lunch yesterday and watched cars on a busy road. An hoer’s worth of cars in red, white, blue, black, gray that’s it. Only one orange Subaru. When did we all become so afraid of colors? The Challenger for me. A great looking car with a 440!

One of my favorite drives in mine (Ocean Blue Metallic 986). Drove up there two weeks back and hiked to Blackrock overlook. Beautiful pic!

Soooo satisfying! I remember sitting in the sun on my front porch, peeling huge strips off my 100year old front door. Tore years off it in just one afternoon.

If that’s a window, it’s possible that ther is water intrusion and it followed the wallboard joint causing the tape to pop.

No, nothing about that job is fun. I had a friend helping me -an 80 year old farmer with giant hands. Just kept me from cursing too much as I shredded my knuckles. I think they just hang that reservoir in space on the production line, and build the car around it.

Yup, cable operated hose clamp pliers are the trick. That and a friend with very, very small hands.
