Just like the 1957Quote:

Ever jam your thumb into the bumper the rear license plate fold down filler? I had a new Honda Super 90 (bought and paid for Gas Staion dough at 65 cents and hour!) that being a dumb ass kid, bright idea at 15 to leave in gear running and wipe the chain off. Yep lost the tip my thumb in the sprocket. So later, all bandaged up and jammed it in the bumper. DAMN THAT HURT! So I'm back there dancing around in pain, guy comes out like "WTF"? I'm such a dumbass..!Quote:

Jerry the head wrench just put a oil pump a 6 CYL chev. Damn thing would not pump oil to valve train. Pours STP on the train and revs it up! Well it was in reverse somehow (getting out after driving in guess) and there she goes, almost through the closed door!! Hes still bent over pouring STP on the floor now with the WTF look face! Damn was he pissed off!Quote:

The one I remember the most was a 427 4 speed Vette. That combo and wet tires equaled wheel spin. The owner got a kick out of me trying to not spin the tires.Quote:

It deserves a rehash .............
12. You do not deserve reparations for something that happened 150 yrs ago!
13. Affirmitive Action over the last 50 years has more than righted the wrongs of the past. Move along, get a job and be productive member of society.
