  1. Looking at getting my son his first car and have a hard time trusting what people tell me when it comes to the history of a car. I have got my eye on two cars right now but would like to be able to see any history on them. Any have access to Carfax and able to run a couple reports for me before I go take a look at them? Would greatly appreciate it. I can PM the VINs.

    I grew up in the Gardens. Born and raised. Yep you’ve got the right location! My dad should be there with his church passing out waters.

    Saying that was our old stomping grounds is an understatement. I think we were at "The Rec" more then we were at home. Those were the good days! Parents always knew where they could find us.

  3. I am in need of some help. I am trying to order up some headers for the LS I am swapping into my 69 Suburban. Problem is wonderful CARB won't let the manufacture ship to CA (even though there is no emissions on a 69 Burban FML). So I am looking for someone in AZ I can ship these to that is then making a trip out the San Diego/El Cajon.

  4. Father in law has the same router. The wire going into the handle takes a lot of stress (bending and flexing) and looses connection with the switch. A little wiggle and she comes back to life. One of these days I will take it apart and fix it. 

  5. Anyone have a hook up on split braided wire loom (Techflex F6 or similar) or have some left over from previous projects. I am looking to rework the harness on the LQ4 I am working and with all the different sizes and minimum lengths they are sold in (that I would probably only use half of) it is just out of my budget to just order it up from Summit or Wirecare.

    said: SCOTUS is not banning it, merely returning the right to decide this very personal matter to each state. Keep in mind that about 10% want it banned, so most states will have trouble banning it. 

     

    I have read seen this stated in multiple places so I am not sure how much trouble they will have banning it in those states.

     

    "If the Supreme Court does overturn Roe v. Wade, 22 states have laws or constitutional amendments that would take effect immediately or as soon as possible to ban abortion, according to Guttmacher Institute."

    I paid Solar Max $27,000 for 26 panels ($18,000 after credits) to have a zero bill. 7,800 watt system making about 50 KWH a day (sunny day).

    I liked the fact that panels were made here.

    It took Edison 9 months to switch me over, so I had to pay the bill like normal. Solar Max was NO help there. 

    When Edison figured out I had solar I find out I owe them over $1,000. I now average $200 a month. Again Solar Max was NO help.

    Not happy with Solar Max OR Edison. I had 18 panels on my last house and loved them then.

     

    Why did you owe them $1000? Surprise fees?

    Coach is coming from Virginia, private seller.

    From what I can tell so far:

    Insurance is higher in AZ 

    registration for multi year in AZ, also a little LOT cheaper

    No smog in AZ (Havasu)

    no sale tax in AZ

    A lot more RV garages in AZ

    Fixed that for you.

    Friends registration went from $1800/yr in CA to $300/yr (Paid $1500 for 5yrs). That was for a 2009 Monaco Pusher

  9. Thanks Zilla. I had seen that right after I posted this thread. Looks like it has had less than 1000mi put on it after that auction.

    My main concern is to make sure I can "sell" the frame/body to a scrapper after I pull the motor and trans.

    Thanks everyone for helping with gr his info.

  10. Looking at picking up a truck for parts for another project. Truck I am looking at has an iffy paperwork trail. I think it is fine but want to try and cross my T's before I give the guy cash. Anyone have access to a stolen vehicle database. Like I said I am pretty sure the guys story is 99.9% legit, just trying to be sure.

    Can any one look up the below VIN and confirm it doesn't' pop up on any reports (I know it is Salvaged)

    Thanks

    No. Its a video of the drug addict camp along hwy 67 take  directly from my phone

    But hey... I noticed yesterday that the good city of El Cajon has supplied the camp with their very own porta potty now. There has always been a few living there, and in the adjoining culvert, but in the last 3 weeks or so it has grown FOUR FOLD. Just crazy I feel really bad for those business right there.

    Watching the show last night the anmoucers seemed to think it was more a loose hose than overheating. Maybe because of how high the steam was coming from the bike? Normally the radiator overflow tube drips low. No clue about a 2022 kawi race bike. 

    I am wondering it he knocked something loose or poked a hooe in his radiator during that aggressive pass he made about 2 laps before it started smoking.

  13. I am trying to buy tickets to take my kids to the Supercross in San Diego this year. I normally buy them thru the Petco box office, as I refuse to be rapped by ticketmaster for $10/per ticket. Unfortunately this year right now Petco is not opening their box office, telling me the only way to buy SX (or Monster Jam) tickets is directly thru ticketmaster. Screw that. Does anyone have a hook up or know of a place I can go to get tickets that doesn't require me to be rapped by ticketmaster. (Can you tell I HATE ticketmaster)? Appreciate any help with this.

    I always drool over this guy's cars. Always something different and cool in the driveway. I always have wondered if he has a storage place somewhere else he keeps alot of them or if he just turns them over that often.

    Holy smokes! 

    Are you accepting the challenge on your next stereo install? Maybe you can put it in B's truck and then his hearing can be as bad as ours is from our old stereos.

  16. Have 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 with a rough idle. I have been trying to figure it out for the last month or so with no luck. Now it is starting to get worse so I am ready to let someone else figure it out. Need someone that can actual diagnose the problem (like scanner danner) not just throw parts at it to "fix" it. Anyone have a great diagnostic mechanic, preferably east county.
