I'm interested in an MGA roadster that's driveable, good mechanically, rust-free, going for about $4000 to $6000. I'll be in the San Francisco/San Jose area next week. And the San Diego area in mid-F
Over the weekend, I re-installed, balanced, tuned, etc a pair of SU's on my 1600 MGA, and thought what a 'piece o' cake'. You see, there is currently no body on the A, so doing all the engine compart
I have an original full tonneau cover from a 79 mgb for sale. It was seldom used and is in excellent condition. $50.00. I will ship. Thanks, Mark Schmitz St. Charles, Illinois schmitz@fnal.gov
One media that seems to have slipped off the list in Soda blasting. This process actually uses baking soda. I watched this done recently on a vehicle with the windshield and rubber trim in place. The
A recent mishap on this list has finally prmpted me to get around to doing a couple of things I've been meaning to do for quite some time now. First off, this list is going to have posting restricted
I read the list only in it's digest form. No problem. I sympathize that your options are now limited, and I understand your irritation at being singled out as an AOL user, but the reality of it is th
The MG folks are more familiar with the details, but I am including the other big lists, since they are also affected. Basically what happened is that someone on the MG list set up a vacation respond
Geez, I can't believe I just did that. Suffice it to say the new keyboard here at home and the one up at work are similar, but not the same. Anyway, I was saying that for each of the 75 or so AOL sub
For general collector's reading interest, I have placed the text of a 1992 British case on the British Works page under 'interesting law.' This case is is a very interesting history of Old Bently Num
I for one will miss the contributions of the AOL members, as well as those that leave in sympathy. It seems that while denial to the few will indeed benefit the one, it will not benefit the many. Mar
Membership on the list isn't a right - it's a priveledge. The solutions are simple, but not necessarily fun: A) accept the digest version; B) Get a new server (that will probably save you money), and
Philippe, the solution is the use of two hood holders. Each consists of a piece of copper tubing or pipe about 14" long and a thin chain about two or two and a half feet long with a small "S" hook on
This is another area I comment on with care. I don't know Mark, or what motivates him to spend all the time he does spend for our enjoyment. , but we are all in his house playing with his toys. My wi
.......SNIP.......... Jim, I have done quite a bit of welding of sheet metal in my 76B restoration. I replaced the floors, removed the original panels first then "spot welded" the new ones in place w
... rest of post deleted ... Questions of AOL server problems aside, what is the big deal with using the digest form of the mail list? I have used the digest form since I started reading the list sev
You know, I thought this wasn't going to be that big a deal. The basic calculation went like, say, I spend around 20 hours per month dealing with list errors, about 25% of that due to AOL subscribers
I was wrong-Porsche people are not the rudest people I have ever met. Please donot anyone else send me anything on this subject, my delete key is melting.
I think it is unfair to compare our major errors to Dan's faux pas; as I understand it he *did* try to unsubscribe. Anyway, I got twice as many messages as others and survived. But I am enjoying the
And Mike Leckstein responds: Well, in truth neither analogy is correct. Moving the AOL folks to the digest was, in terms of this analogy, just saying "Please park over there with the other leaky cars
Moving the AOL folks to the digest was, in terms of this analogy, just saying "Please park over there with the other leaky cars for this event, so when you all leave I won't run myself ragged trying
