Sure, sounds good. If lpcoating has access to a 3d scanner and conversion to .dwg or .dfx that would put it way ahead. Roy can definately give us an estimate based on that.
For my program i will need the transmission jack shaft we used to keep the environmental hazzard in Rusty's trans for the...
Happy holidays folks. And well.. If someone has a cone in good condition or can send me detailed drawings of what you need in a replacement cone..I have a very good friend with a cnc workstation who does custom one offs for my projects. Aluminum is a great material for custom because the feed...
Hey Duane, I need some stuff brought up from Mexico. ......could you......uh.......make a call for me......? I'm just kidding but when I get a chance to go South again, I'm going to load up with MV gear and mention your name.
Don't worry brother. I've got you covered. If I fly, even...
Thats great, I'm glad you guys made it home safe and sound. And thanks for the kind words. It was really nice to meet the both of you.
Its too bad the weather was so chunky, i couldve given you the full tire kicker tour. As for the border..i have to appologise..i know better than that, you cant...
Thats beautiful. I'm about an hour north of you. I have it's dirty/evil twin in my yard. If you decide to let it go send me a pm. I'm sure we can work something out..just dont tell my wife.:sneaky:
I hear you. I used to do it with hammers and bars. But there usually was damage to the backing plate or questionable clearance to bodywork. Now i do it this way. Zero damage and the tools do all the heavy lifting. These were 15x6 brakes and stuck like hell. By the look of it the corrosion the...
Yes this isn't my deuce. But it IS a modern version of a dual wheel cylinder manually adjusted drum brake assembly same as our deuces. This is for the guys in the hobby who are willing to take on things that others throw away.
So you bought yourself a truck. Sometimes Father Time has welded the...
Here in Canada I've dealt with this a few times. You do your research as to the decoding of your vin by the manufacturer's data. Print it out including any weblinks.. Take it over to the local autoplan (insurance agents). have them call up the provincial licensing body (ICBC) and state the...
Thank you so much for the warm invitation. This is a direct example of the unbreakable bond between Canadians and Americans on an individual personal level. Truly heartwarming.
My family came to Canada before confederation. I was raised to confront adverstity head on. If i dont engage, and...
Ok so here is the latest. A friend of mine dogged the head of the CVSE here in Victoria by phone for a week. Finally got a call back and had a candid discussion with him regarding our situation.
Here are the basic take aways;
Ex- military vehicles produced prior to 1966 are exempt as the Motor...
A friend in the hobby sent me this today and may be of use to us.
["that at the time the vehicle was manufactured was not designed to conform to the standards prescribed in the Motor Vehicle Safety Act"
the DOT was born in 1966 before that time the only legislation regarding autos was:
Act...
So I've been thinking about this. The legal precedent has been set long ago regarding the hirearchy of engineering standards.
Level 1 is DOT/SAE (the lowest)
Level 2 Milspec
Level 3 Avionics/Aerospace
My understanding is it is about the engineered in saftey factors.
If a part,device, or piece...
This is 100% the thin end of the wedge. Sherwood Forest is for the elites. The AI controlled drones will make sure we stay in our prison cities where they can tax and control us 24/7.
The broader interpretation of this would be ANY non conforming vehicle. The definer would be if they deem the vehicle to have met the requirements of the motor vehicle act at the date of manufacture, or if they try to hold it up to the latest standard, which would mean no more vintage vehicles...
So it has happened.
The scumbags that run our Provincial Government, specifically the Ministry of Transportation, with a stroke of a pen, have killed the military vehicle hobby and cost collectors and related businesses millions of dollars...
So for those that are following and those that find interest. Here are a couple of pics of the modified high/low formerly pto shift fork. I don't have fitment pics yet, It's been back to back projects at work the last month and a half so little time to play with my toys. Judging from the last...
