    Chevy v8 in m37 clutch linkage??

    I've been battling doing a conversion on my M37 for years, haven't gotten up the nerve yet but been collecting parts just in case. :roll: I've read all the ideas on drive train weaknesses and modifying the brakes/upgrades needed and if I take the plunge I'm going to basically use the drive...

    Hard Copy Manuals

    I have both electronic on CD and an original print copy I got on fleabay. What I do to keep my hard copy clean is to print just the pages pertaining to what I'm working on.

    Nos Jerry cans

    I might as well stick my nose into the relining process, I redid 4 jerry cans cans(2 WW2 vintage and 2 dated 1953) about 15 years ago using a double coat of Kreem the brand of sealer JC Whitney sold back then. I put a couple of shovels of pea gravel in them and bungie corded them in the center...

    New B-2 Stealth Bomber HD Air-to-Air Footage

    I have to say my favorite planes are of the WW2 propeller type, that said when I look at the B-2 in flight it sends chills running up and down my spine. My 2cents.

    Electrolysis for rust removal?

    I need to clean the rust from inside a motorcycle gas tank for my son(soldier #3). The outside is good not so much for inside. I put in about 4 cups of pea gravel and bungee corded it to the center of a tractor wheel while mowing for a couple of hours(think rock tumbler). That took out most...

    Which is best, SF97 or State Certificate of Title? In TX

    I've always gone with the SF-97 myself but I guess if all the titles come from Florida you might want to check with your state license office. I know Missouri can be a snot about titles from some states, you don't want to know how I know this Tennessee.

    New GL policy warning

    I grew up wearing steel toes when I first went to work in a chemical plant. I'm retired and 65 now and still wear them cause smashed toes hurt. Believe it or not Iron Age makes a steel toed tennis shoe. As far as long hair, there was a Hager Hinge plant next to us that had a long haired...

    Urban legend or Nuclear Tatra

    Maybe that's what those holes that keep appearing in remote rousa are, melt holes where reactors were forgotten? That's as good a story as any explanation I've heard so far.

    Looking for suggestions on what to do with this nifty little gas-turbine genset...

    I was wondering about the idea of a heavy duty DC welder also. I have one that is rigged up with a 6 cylinder Chevy engine, hard to slow down but if you need a lot of heat it really delivers.

    M39 Series 5 ton steering column question???

    I'm going to have to deal with this if I live long enough. My wire is grounded somewhere inside the column. I tried to pull a new one from the steering wheel end but couldn't get it to move, I suspect it's pinched where its grounded. I rigged a wire to a button on top of the column and it's...
