    Radiator Stop Leak question

    Unless your in some remote area and need to do something to get home I wouldn't use any stop leaks . They are a temporary fix at best what will also plug things like your heater core that you don't want plug . Either pull the radiator and take to a reputable radiator repair shop and see if they...

    MISSION COMPLETED: On the road, moving to Springfield Arkansas

    It might be a good idea to have a moderator move this thread to the conversations Forum since only a small amount of members are premium members and have access to the Mess Hall. It will give you a larger base for support on the trip.

    1950 Korean War Deuce

    There is a very small market for the old GMC's even the axles don't have a value like M35 Rockwells do , the mud truck guys love the Rockwells . Without a title it's a parts truck especially since it's not running , it isn't worth the cost and hassle of a bonded title. Edit: there is a clean...

    The Pre-trip inspection is where most people fail their CDL test. If you can pass the written part and get your learners permit , most schools will deal on the driving and road test part of the classes .
