Its the night before the vintage grand prix held in Pittsburgh and I am burning midnight oil to get my Mark IV Triumph Spitfire running. Around 7 PM I had finally finished all parts installation and was ready to fire it up. I had put in a brand new gear reduction starter, alternator, coil, starter solenoid, and new…

Could you mansplain this to me?

Talk about a great way to speed up that Service C light

I’m not sure how aware of this you are, but in nature, death is not a pleasant or “humane” experience by any means.

Im so glad to see someone referenced this. Such a great trailer.

Can someone explain what just happened? was that a charge that went into an explosive or did they shoot something into it?

Doug, I’ve been thinking about picking up a used DB9, but seeing this makes me think twice I would say. Is it something that you still recommend for me to look at?

You are definitely right about that. THis is probably the only Buick I would ever consider purchasing.

Well, if anything, Kennedy certainly didn’t know what hit him.

what is that picture from? it looks hilarious

I become worried if I don’t see an oil leak. However, no matter how painful or intense the repair becomes, I look forward to…

Wow, this perfectly describes my experience with my 74 Spitfire. What British car do you have? I had Ujoints fly out of my rear axles and cause me to have to do roadside repairs in the middle of nowhere. This is like the ultimate explanation of LBC ownership. Well done sir.

“adjusts duct-tape and styrofoam in floor pan of 74 Triumph Spitfire. Looks at faded post-it note reminder to keep window cracked at all times. Reminds self that gas fumes will kill me. Enjoys ride to work.”

I think you bring an interesting point up, but the reality of it is, the consistency of “lifetime” customers has dwindled substantially in this generation of auto buying, to the point that a quick $75 profit is better in the near term than anything else. Client loyalty seems to be subjected to pricing and opportunity,…

Well, it depends on your application. If you need the correct level of additives that help an older car ( anything built before 1980 is what I’m referring to) than you want to purchase Brad Penn Motor Oils exclusively. Its the only oil formulated for older vehicle applications ( mainly classics).
