Siesta and Turtle Beach are for upper class and Lido Beach and the Point is for everybody else.

I hate to carry on about beaches , but for anybody who has never done it. There is nothing like the Gulf of Mexico in the summer when the water is 88 degrees. Tropical downpours , and a hot ocean. Nothing like it floating around for hours.....But we have been getting red tide. That smells five miles away , and kills all fish, turtles, manatees, everything. Im not kidding its so bad. Next weekend Im going to put some pictures on for you cold guys.

For three years I had no factory lights in my 90 convertible. After seeing a post on here I looked into my problem. Both lights under my rear view mirror where out. Ordered these LEDs on Amazon and oh my god. So cool my car is normal. lights go on when door opens . These LEDs which Im new to me because Im a little old ,are so brtght , clean , not hot. So I dont have to worry about melting. Iv been working on these little things on my car now that the big stuff is done.

Ahhh, don't sell yourself short. You're probably way older than you think.

Give the big stuff time. It will make it full circle like mine. Always something.

Always something is correct, Coming home from Home Depot heard a sound. When I got home my shroud was loose and hitting my fan. A constant problem from bad motor mounts. Made brackets from large washers should be a perm. fix. Every 20 miles something Also after reading here the importance of grounds I checked my strap on the firewall thing was loose.

Suns down the inside lights up when the door opens. Thats a first bright and clean. Did the plate , and its to bright for the camera. The classic picture of old 194 , and new LED . Not sure about the plate,. Im one of those people who will make a run from cops.

Things are slow so lets get a picture. My mother saved this in the back of the barn. This was an old toy of mine . Thanks mom. Im thinking about selling it, very surprised by the prices. About $2,5000 on a good day. $4,000 pristine.

I've done quite a few LED upgrades on my car as well, difference is amazing and you're drawing less amperage , win/win.
That Honda mini bike is really cool, what year ?

I just ordered some on Amazon. We will see what happens. I have a feeling about these old sensors. Im over buying parts for fun. The reviews on American Muscle led me to my conclusion. Going to check tps , it seems almost new.

You can find the proper way to check the tps in the technical how to thread

Just went down to the Marina. Near Marina Jacks where there is a statue of the World War 2 kiss. Then stopped at Robards Arena. Circus is a big part of old Sarasota. Then Sunday morning downtown. My camera is a military flip phone. So I can drop it. It takes crappy pictures , but Im not breaking a $600,00 one.
