    How to get exhaust work done? Muff Shops say no!

    My method. Find a good local shop. Do legit business with them for awhile. Pay in cash always. Then...depending on how the situation is them I'll come out and ask or I''ll just drop the car off and not say anything. Never had an issue. Most like keeping a customer who basically pays them under...

    tint percentage

    I'm going to get a doctors note. I don't think it will be that hard to get one. I'll probably claim eye strain since I work thirds and driving home on a summer morning is a pain.

    Meh, I'd check to see of he has the authority to do that. I wouldn't be surprised if the reg only covered long time repairs. Hence no cars on blocks for seasons at a time. Hell even my apartments have let me work on cars as long as the visiable work was done in a day. Anyway if he gives you...

    Storing a car outside: How to save the brakes elegantly.

    Silcon tire spray? You could also try the spray on gun rust protect products. There are some good ones that leaves a protective oil behind. Probably won't last the winter, but you should be re-applying it often. Whatever you do. Spray them down with brake cleaner come spring and before you...

    Help, home security question

    NH's a very odd state. We didn't even have building inspections until the mid 80's. This place had out of code 2 prong outlets. I had to rewire most of this side. Luckily my dad was in the electrical supply industry so I got all the supplies for free. That and grounds had been wired to all the...

    Help, home security question

    Thats for when we get the house. Train them to be friendly, except to strangers on the otherside of the door. Nobody wants to test a big dogs bark. Yeah guys I can get her to install a deadbolt but it will take awhile. I want a quick for the moment. I still think I should get a guard to also...

    Help, home security question

    I know. But thats not going to happen for the moment. Its not my place, I rent. I don't feel like paying for the parts or doing the install and my land lord is cheap and probably won't do it for many months. Plus I'm not sure the door can be easily adapted for a deadbolt. I need a quick fix...

    Help, home security question

    Hoping you guys can help me out with this. Recently I locked myself out of my apartment. I was able to pop the lock by just shimming the bolt with a credit card. This disturbed me a bit. I know that a deadbolt would fix this but its a bit out of the question with this door since it would...

    Like I said. I'm not looking for the fastest car. Thats a losing fight for me. And I won't argue that its cheaper to build a foxbody to the state your talking about because I agree with you. Its hard and expensive. BTW I'm doing a gt40 head combo with an explorer intake. Basic 250rwhp build...

    In today's age, 5.0s just aren't competitive...

    And even the cheapest one of those costs $14K more than my coupe did. I bought my stang as a cheap toy that I could play around with. Sure I could make a srt4 faster but I wouldn't be in there with the wrench and would be out the money I saved for grad school. I learned in highschool that...
