  1. Yeah, I posted it in the wrong thread. I have a '60 F100 I've been drooling over. Seller auto-offered $2,250. That Coyote in there ... eBay F100

  3. Yeah, was it rubber, or low durometer PVC or some such?
  4. I do almost everything on a monitor. I don't have a backlit keyboard, yet. I was trying to figure out what an appropriate lighting kevel was. I found there are now apps to use your cell-phone as a light meter. IES doesn't call out a level for strictly using a computer screen 8 hours a day or more. I think 30 foot candles is too much. That, and on a personal level, my eyes are old. They don't adjust the way they used to. https://www.resourceltg.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Interpretation-of-IES-Standards-Resource-1.pdf https://www.resourceltg.com/ies-footcandle-guide/ https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://waypointlighting.com/uploads/2/6/8/4/26847904/ies_recommended_light_levels.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiIk8GNv_ODAxWiLDQIHR_wDl0QFnoECCUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2KhvnSA4zjKiy0O1hqtFiy
  5. ...the black bike, not the two-smoke.

  7. Nobody can answer my question. Do you have an extra one of those later on that you could soften up and see how long it stays? Pliable? Apparently it's a big mystery.

  9. ...oh, shit, MSDS maybe my stainless drinking cup aint so bad? https://people.com/nanoplastics-discovered-bottled-water-8424730
  10. Good thing you don't live in California! I'm looking for mySAFETY DATA SHEET - Fisher Scientific https://www.fishersci.com/store/msds?partNumber=AA43301&productDescription=keyword&vendorId=VN00024248&countryCode=US&language=en
  11. I thought of 3D modeling them and printing them.
  12. Is anybody had a black bird that they've had to soften up? Any rubber boots or such? I know there's a part in the carb models. I think that it's like a rubber diaphragm, but that rips? One of the guys on the 1100F site tried to answer my question about longevity of the softness. The guys on the X site just beat me down and told me to go by new. It's only 140 bucks. I didn't explain a lot of what was going on though. How long does the magic last? Does everything turn to a pumpkin at midnight?
  13. Like 50 year old Snow-Trac treads? The survivor is hard as a rock.
  14. Yeah - they are becoming more plentiful and less expensive. The one set does not look correct. The other set is 40 years old? I thought the outer cylinders had a bit of a bend to them.
  15. The CBX guys swear by wintergreen oil. ...six boots....
  16. I don't do iThingies, but my wife has run them for decades. I bought one of Dave's discards (iPhone 6S?) for her. She got another 5 good years of use out of it before it wouldn't keep up on the data highway. He gave me a few bucks off on the purchase as well. That being said, I could Google it, but I don't keep up on that market segment or the versions. I doubt I could form a decent query. A picture would help me get in the conversation. .
  17. Yeah, I'm like 7 pages on an Apple watch? I was going to ignore it. Then, I thought - what is the conversation about? ...exposure.
  18. I ended up tearing out the whole unit accidentally. Years ago in the basement bathroom I reached on it and twisted it. There were no shut-offs behind the wall. I had to shut off the main water at the house shut off the hot water heater. I sent my family up to the in-laws for the night and I started cutting drywall and replacing the whole unit. This video looks like it should just drop off of there. https://youtu.be/y24kzjBOQvE?si=r2PZgtLjLJbA-j3Y
  19. ...very professional and considerate of the next guy.
  20. Yeah, dragsters had special girdles that strapped over the tunnel at one point may decades ago. They looked like fire hose material. ...looks like they're more high tech now.
  21. I "Googled" it and by the lack of information, I don't think them heating up under normal conditions is a thing.
  22. My wife is watching Gotham Garage (Car Masters, rust to riches) They built a Tesla withe a mega carb'd 383CID. They made a cheezy hole in the hood.... etcetera They ran the drive-shaft inside the car instead of making a tunnel and running it outside. I'm pretty sure they are generally run outside for safety. I've twisted a pinion off the rear end, a long time ago. You don'want a drive shaft flopping around in the interior of a automobile cabin. ....so, here are my questions. 1. What is the operating temperature of a universal joint operating under normal circumstances mounted outside? I think "barely warm to the touch?" 2. Would mounting them inside allow less cooling and make them heat up? (I don't think it would change much) opinions?
