    old VW van awakened after 40 year forest nap

    Very cool, these guys manage to drive out of the forest a Volkswagen Kombivan after replacing the van's systems in the forest, and they do it in a couple of days! The vehicle has been there for decades, evidently. The soundtrack is great too. https://youtu.be/z_aoJDpkjmM

    split window VW van leaves forest nap of 40 years under its own power

    I think this is a cool video, about saving an abandoned VW van from the space it 'slept' for 40 years, between two trees in a forest. The parts I like are seeing the guys remove the engine, and carrying it away, slung off strapping looped-over a 2 x 4 they carry on their shoulders. Once they...

    Ford Explorer 1997 4.0 exhaust help

    I think the cats are plugged. I will likely only be driving this thing one more year - so replacing the expensive cats is not an option. Cutting them off - or punching them out are my options. I am not one for killing the environment - and I don't intend on driving it too long. Will this hurt...

    Tank-slapper at 40 mph

    Just picked up an '01 pretty well stock, full well knowing the handling issues of this bike. But I wasn't expecting the front end to wobble into a tank-slapper while decellerating at 42 mph! The front tire is some cheapie from the dealership but it is new. No cupping on it and it's inflated to...
