    Tilt column for $100 on craigslist. 1972 Chevelle. Tempting but what would I do with the old one? Column shift automatic with keys. Don't really need tilt when your seat is squishing so you can get in and out easy. Other than the low top to the door opening. https://kansascity.craigslist.org/pt...241249360.html

    Window sticker says 5k miles for oil change. Its only been 2k and the car keeps saying "change oil". Has been since February though....

    Technology is a wonderful thing - it seems back in the day, a couple boxes of sheet metal screws installed from the inside out was all you needed to play on the ice.

    I'll probably take mine out as long as the snow isn't too deep!

    I found out the Yamaha Enduros sit lower than the Honda’s do so I picked up 3 of them. Cathy is short and so are the grandkids. Keep me in mind if you come across any small Enduros or Mini Enduros. I may have to sell the 1968 Honda as it is too tall. I would buy another Yamaha or more if they were nicer than the ones I have now to upgrade. No riding here though until spring.

    I looked up flush mounted car glass after seeing it on tv. It says they want 999 for a windshield. Its only five times what a stock one costs. Would work well on my el camino since the studs for the trim are gone. They don't make a back window for it though. Has anybody tried one of the sliding rear windows?

    So did mine. That's how I learned to ride a motorcycle. It was tough to find a yellow one that was affordable but I wanted that color.

    Those are getting very collectible. I picked up a 1968 Trail 90 also.

    Here it is. It's an unrestored rider with less than 900 miles on the odometer. Everything seems to work except the neutral indicator and the rear hand brake. What a fun little thing it is. We picked it up Wednesday night and I didn't want to leave it in the bed of the truck over night in a hotel parking lot so we put it in the backseat. LOL
