Supply chain issues strikes again support your local shops and business
Просмотров 543 месяца назад
Between Moore Chinese garbage supply chain issues and problems with Amazon shipping we need to as an automotive community be sure to patronize our local shops that do engine, rebuilding alternator, and starter rebuilding radiator repair. The shops are slowly going away, and then the only source of parts will be foreign made. Let’s keep our local workers working and the shops open

    Thought it was cool to be able to run the original plate when I first heard about it but I'm going to build a 51 chevy to be a daily driver and I'm not gonna spend tens of thousands to have a mileage restriction

    Here's a tip on checking if the year of manufacture historic plate with 6 or less numbers/letters is available to register without waiting weeks for an email response from DOR. Go to the Missouri online personalized plate availability page. Select any vanity plate type, it doesn't matter, put in the plate numbers/letters you want to check. The system will run those numbers/letters against all currently registered plates in Missouri, and say if it's available or not available.

    In my area Marathon has Rec 90 alcohol free fuel, that's the only fuel I run in my mower, more power, less hassle. If you use rubber fuel hose rated for fuel injection, probably never have to replace again, but it costs more than reg. hose.

    Took my daughter on that same plane for her first ever flight. My grandpa and mom flew on one at an air show in the 30’s in Ohio. So now we have 4 generations of my family who got a little ride on one. I’ve got several members of the next generation down who live near Sandusky so hopefully they’ll carry on the tradition 😊. I’ve liked the TriMotors since I first saw one as a kid, my favorite plane. It’s like flying in a tin shack only more awesomer😊

    My first ever flight was in the Tri Motor that used to (maybe still does, doubt it) fly out to the Cedar Point amusment Park. I was a kid so about the mid '60's. I guess I liked it so much, I started flying myself in '72, and am still going strong, 200 hours a year, 52 years later!

Tell me is it still a part of Island airlines? I think it was their mail run that we flew on! It was the only plane that I ever flew on that was smaller than a passenger jet… Pilot gave us a turn of sitting up in a copilot seat!!!What a thrill for a young kid.
