oh my god, i think i recognize one of them!

i'd love to but i'm working on the van right now, trying to get it 100% ASAP so the wife and i can take it for some weekend test trips before the big trek down south in august. maybe next year.

The vac adv assy has two diaphragms in two canisters on US cars. Pretty sure that Canada cars have the same vac adv units. I call the canister that is the farthest out from the dizzy the outer canister and the closer one the inner canister. Tho outer canister has only one vac nipple on it and it is...

the saga continues. i've been working through this as well. i found a small vacuum leak at my splatterdog PCV mod--i had cracked the old EGR casting by overtightening the barb fitting so i made another and used JB weld in the threads and was careful not to use my superhuman strength on it. i also fo...

i just put kenwood speakers in the front of my van and pioneers at the back and both sound good but the kenwoods definitely have more of a scooped mid sound, nice and tight. if i had to choose between them i'd go with the kenwood. thought i'd add that since i had the chance to compare them side by s...

i'm afraid arb is right. just took a look to confirm it and there is no room for them. i did this particular job on my wife's toyota pickup since it only had stock 4" speakers in the dash--weak. the cardboard door panels are fine for mounting speaks though, no issues there. if the map holder th...

i'd bet a dozen donuts that's not CGI. even the highest quality CGI is smoother than real life, more cartoon-y, and easily recognizable. even if DQ invested in top quality CGI it would still be obvious. as it is i doubt the car was filled with water, more likely they filled a storage tank with a qui...

special effects? BS. although i can't find the video anywhere now to confirm this.

Lots of fire roads and a good driver in a t4wd should be able to deal with most of it. i'm afraid we'll be making the trek in the westfalia. i'm just about finished fixing up the fridge, sink, and various other details. it'll be slow going and there will be absolutely no off-roading going on in tha...

looks very nice. i wonder what happened after they flooded the car in the commercial--if they didn't remove the carpet and seats, dry them, and replace the underlay it would surely reek of mold. i LOVE the rear hatch with the horizontal stripe!

homeskool, you don't want to go doorless here with the crappy weather we've been having, do you? you'll get soaked!

a compression rating of approx 145 psi throughout is ok but if i were you i would keep looking until i found one in better shape. tearing an engine apart is a lot of work and like you've illustrated, everything adds up. if you can find one with higher, even compression i would take it and just do th...

wowee, that's nice and shiny. i love the white wheels. why do you call it red when it's blue, and what's wrong with the rear end? the hatch looks fine from here.

interesting roof racks, i've never seen that kind before.

use a tap and die set to clean up the threads on both the nut and the bolt.

edit: sorry, i'm an idiot. i thought you had it apart and couldn't get it back together. my bad.

these are all excellent, thanks guys. keep them coming!
