  • Re: Disco Shifter Blues....

    They're actually very unobtrusive, but that's coming from a guy who's other car's are blind spot nightmares. And louvers are fast!!!!

      Whats the big deal with a cup holder. From what I hear, the Diet Coke never leaves his hand.

          I guess one wouldn't hurt on Tonya's side.

              Keith - the pic of the whole car - where was that taken? Looks like a great shop, at least potentially. Somewhere in Enterprise, I'm guessing.

                It is a really cool shop.
                That is Scotty's motorcycle shop (Stormy's Garage), where the four intrepid explorers left for the Epic Journey to Mexico.

                ;D

                  During our Grand Tour of Enterprise we missed that. We had a pretty limited time to peruse the sights, though. Did see the Weevil, of course.

                      My standard line is "Keith and Tonya showed us the sight" (singular). Actually, I love small towns and they showed us around quite a bit - I loved it and can see why they chose it. Didn't get to see Turk Stone. We ran out of time and it's in another nearby little town. We did have great German food, though. Who'd a thunk it - real Germans in the heart of Alabammy?!

                            either you need more fluid in the trans, because the wrong dipstick is in there, or the valve body is gummed from sitting. If you've gone 60mph and haven't found 3rd something is miffed

                              Or it has 2.56 rear gears and 28-inch tires. Which is possible.

                                I think David's right here... LOL

                                Could be either.... I've not had it up to 50 yet... and second is good... and I feel like 3 is there... just haven't had the opportunity to downshift from speed to second...

                                And I'm not 100% sure it's got the " right " amount of Fluid, as I recall these things take like 10-11 quarts... so when it took 8 I figured that Freiburger had put fluid in the Torque converter... .... so that's possible too...

                                It's fast becoming a regular car... doesn't leak oil, starts every time ( once you know the secret hand shake ).. and runs really good... I'm actually digging it...
