Dump that FORD 370....
I have a 1987 Ford F 700 dump truck. It showing just over 40k miles, rust free, it's a pretty nice truck. Hoping to make friends I would like to repair the truck, keep it on hand. One can never tell when they might need a dump truck. It has the 370 engine, it runs fine, but shows water in the oil. All my local sources are say the intake gasket is probably bad. I don't know, but I don't want to get into a trap. What are your thoughts? Anyway to check and make sure what is wrong?

Now this is weird!
The District Attorney's Office says the charges against the man accused of firing shots at "Dog the Bounty Hunter" last month have been dropped. Hoang Nguyen was facing attempted homicide charges. It all started at 7:30 p.m. on April 21 at the Galley Apartments at 3617 E. Uintah. According to police, Colorado Springs bail bondsman Bobby Brown and TV personality Duane Chapman were attempting to execute a warrant. The original report said when Nguyen saw "Dog" approaching, he pulled out a gun and fired at least one shot. However, police say there is no evidence, meaning shell cases or property damage, to prove that a shot was fired. Or maybe it's not! "DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT"

Sellers that offer Pickup Only-No Shipping
This is an open letter to all sellers that mat read this and if you are guilty of what I am referring to then you know who you are. Before I ride off into the sunset and away from ebay forever there has been one thing that has always bothered me, and it has to do with sellers of vehicle engines and transmissions that do not offer shipping and want you the buyer to drive across country to physically pick up and haul away whatever it is that you have purchased, ridicolous! Sellers, you do realize that by excluding any shipping of the item that you attempting to sell that you are limiting your potential buyers? That by listing an item and stating pickup only automatically causes me and I'm sure many others to just click off your ad and move onto to another sellers item. Perhaps if ebay can ever pull their heads out of the sand and get their ebay motors problems resolved they might look at having an entire section that is devoted to only those items and/or sellers that refuse to have any shipping, just make it their own little 'you come and get it' section, that way all of the other sections with items for sale would be a lot less cluttered, oh well just excuse me, I'm blowing off some steam, this has always been a pet peeve of mine, it sort of rings bells with being excluded and selective sales strategies, if a seller really only prefers to sell something locally and have someone come and pick it up then they should place their ads in the local paper or neighborhood bulletin board but then again what does it matter, with the way the new and improved ebay motors currently is, I will not be buying anything, anytime soon from anyone on ebay, moot point.

Need Advise On An Old Cadillac Fleetwood......
I have a 1994 Caddy Fleetwood, one of the last years for the big ones with the Corvette (good) engine.....I'm the 2nd owner and purchased it when it was only 2 years old/40,000 miles. Now it has 150,000 miles....I always maintained the engine pretty well (oil changes, etc). But I went through a divorce 5 years ago, and didn't have $$ to put into the car so it has several typical caddy problems, like windows not working, air messed up, dash panel cracked from weather, etc. And it is starting to show some light rust. I had the tranny rebuilt 1-1/2 years ago, only drove it 5,000 miles since then......and a couple of weeks ago, the tranny went AGAIN....UGH. The mechanic won't stand behind it (was only garanteed for 1 year).......I'm just SICK over the tranny going so soon (this is WHY I spent $1300 to have it REBUILT, as apposed to a USED one)......so I'm trying to decide if I should fix this tranny again, or try to find another 1994-96 Caddy with lower miles/better condition/etc .....plus, I'm picky and only want Black (in other words, trying to find a needle in a haystack........lol). I have been watching Ebay, and geez these cars are holding their value!! There was a wrecked one that just sold for $1,000. And there is one with only 30,000 miles that is currently at $7,000 and the reserve isn't even MET. Others with over 100,000 miles are still going for $5,000. My friend who buys/sells alot of cars, says I shouldn't put more $$ in this car, he thinks I could find this same car/better condition for cheap on Craig's List, but so far no luck. I also checked autotrader.com. The ones on Ebay seem to go pretty high dollar, and most are far away (I'm in PA)......I am SO scared of buying something sight unseen, having it shipped, etc. And 1/2 of me says I "know" what I have in my car, and worried that I might be buying a lemon.......ugh. So, trying to weigh the decision out. Any advise??

What causes an engine to smoke like this?
I was driving home though the mountians in western MD after delivering a car, and I was following a late model GMC pickup for a few miles. Speed was around 75 mph down the hills and I assume he was coasting because I was too. Everytime he got to the bottom of the hill I see a large puff of smoke as he got on the gas. There was no smoke while going up the hills as if there may be worn rings. What causes this?

Where did the GOOD motors menus go?
Several months ago (last year perhaps?) Ebay Motors used to have a VERY superior filtering scheme to what they have today. Is there a way to "turn on" that past or to somehow get the error ridden current release fixed? Whenever "searching in current results" it always goes back to the HIGHEST level, totally missing the goal of searching in results. Also, the filtering for searches changed significantly - now showing "ranges" of years, not individual years (and that new bar on the left works only some of the time). MOST of the "series" designations that Ebay has are wrong anyway: Land Rover, Volkswagen, BMW, Porsche...I could go on. PLEASE bring back the pure filtering

What a Great Story:
updated 1:30 p.m. MT, Fri., May 22, 2009 WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Robert Gates says American soldiers have more than their military might and training on their side in the war in Afghanistan. Some have pink underwear. Gates told an audience in New York about Specialist Zachary Boyd, routed from sleep by enemy fire on his post in eastern Afghanistan. "He immediately grabbed his rifle and rushed into a defensive position clad in his helmet, body armor, and pink boxer shorts that said 'I Love New York,'" Gates said Thursday night."Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on your perspective, an AP photographer was there for a candid shot," Gates continued. The photograph by David Guttenfelder ran on the front page of the New York Times and is featured in the msnbc.com slide show on this story. Gates said Boyd, from Forth Worth, Texas, later told his parents he might get fired. Gates assured his audience at the Intrepid museum, and Boyd, that his job is safe. "Any soldier who goes into battle against the Taliban in pink boxers and flip-flops has a special kind of courage," Gates said, adding that Boyd may have hit on a new kind of psychological warfare. "I can only wonder about the impact on the Taliban. Just imagine seeing that

I have a scooter I would like to sell but I still have a loan on it. What is the rule about selling a vehicle while not holding the title "in hand"? As soon as I receive payment I can pay off loan and get the title. Can I sell the scooter this way and if so how much time do I have to transfer title to the new owner's name? Thank you.

Hey Mo............
I just wanted to thank you for your recomending {Legendary} restoration parts when I asked about them a few weeks ago. Not trying to do a comercial here but those guys are great. As allways I was running behind ordering parts and with a have it done date of 6 - 1 I called them 5 - 8 and talk to them about my seat covers I needed. They said prob be 5 ot 6 weeks. I told them or asked if there was anyway I could get them sooner and explained I was a dummy from Iowa and thought they would prob have a set on the shelf. Now here is were it gets good. The Legendary sales rep tells me if I skip them and order straight from their supplier I should be able to get them sooner. He gave me a phone # and contact name and told me good luck. I called the supplier and long story short the covers arrrived today {Sat.} and look great. No heat sealed seams all stiched , correct grain ect , there made in the USA {N. J.} and they fed exd them to me when done. No extra charge , just a thanks for your business note. $46.00 less than what Legendary told me. Yep thats right Legendary only makes a $46 markup on a full set of near $600 seat covers. I am tossing my yearone cat into the can. I have a new supplier. A company that will cut their own sale to help a guy out will have my business for a long time on what ever else we can use from them at our shop.

WHAT IS CAR WORTH ? 1969 ROADRUNNER CONVERTIBLE
I have a 1969 Roadrunner convertible that I am having to sell. I need to list it but I am not sure what my asking price should be. So far I got between $35,000-$43,000. It is in excellent condition. The only thing it needs is the upholstery could use some extra cushioning. There were only about 2200 of these cars made. Being a convertible definitely brings up the price. Any help with the little info I gave you would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
