Re: In Finnland they have cars that run on wood!
Even so in places like the PNW, it would be fun to drive around in a polished copper pipe steam-punk mobile that has a guy in the back throwing wood into a blast furnace looking device, driver up front wearing goggles, leather gloves with big gauntlets a Lambskin leather coat, tall black boots. You...

Re: need small side glass
try using the broken fingers of the thief that did it. it may not be very functional but it will feel really good every time you look at it.

Re: New guy from Victoria
by the way all these islands are home to more than a couple T4wds. they've been a favorite of islanders for years. yes, it's true! i've seen a lot of T4's over on saltspring and hornby in my visits. they've all got the classic severe rust/sagging back ends/mud/algae look but all putt along regardle...

Re: New guy from Victoria
WF, which other gulf islands are off the grid? i can't imagine there are 800 hippies over there, especially given the difficult lifestyle of the island. the wiki article i just looked at quoted 359 residents back in 2006 but i really have no clue since i've never been. all this talk makes me curious...

Re: WTB: engine shock absorber
i went to a local bike shop and checked these out but none i found fit, and most were way too stiff. the guy recommended checking into steering dampers for dirt bikes so i did, but no luck there either. the dampers are all too big and about, oh, $400. the dirt bike parts guy had a doodie-eating grin...

Re: New guy from Victoria
tom, that's funny that you're googling such an obscure place. even living here my whole life i've never ventured onto lasqueti. just picked up a hitchhiker from there once who filled me in on it a bit. the guy, and many others there i believe, was a homesteader and just had a simple hut he made, alo...

Re: FRONT DRIVE SHAFTS
call any parts store, they should be able to get your remanufactured ones at the very least. call around to see if you can get new ones though, remans are junk, generally, and have a short lifespan.

Re: How to raise a Tercels suspension?
