    Classic Truck Headliner, Opinions Please

    As others have said, go stock. You already have stuck to the stock look even down to the paint. However; if you decide to go with the poster look, I vote Tanya. One thing I would like to say as the owner of a vintage car. If you decide to go other than stock, try to keep it period correct...

    Cargo roof rack

    If you proceed with that idea, you may want to consider that any weight that you put in it will raise your center of gravity. Also, anything that you put into it must be securely tied down. So, the idea seems sound enough if you do not traverse on any inclines. I would like to suggest something...

    Turbo cooldown

    Turbo cool down should only take a minute, or sometimes even less. The cool down should be done at a a little above normal idle speed. Look at the engine temperature gauge and watch for movement on the gauge. When the gauge has moved toward a noticeably cooler temperature, it is safe to shut down.

    Help Needed - Tractor does not move when in gear

    Thank you very much! I will look at that tomorrow. I hope it is as simple as that. The hardest part of that job will be to take the mower off so I can look at it.

    Today while mowing the lawn the tractor stopped moving, just stopped moving completely. Here are the facts: 1. The treadle moves easily from front to rear. Much easier than in normal operation. When the pedal is pushed for forward movement, it goes all the way to the floor and stays there. The...
