I’ve told this story here before… Relative has a Toyota Highlander with about 400,000 miles on it. Had it since it was 2-3 years old. Maintenance was sporadic at best but a true testament to the quality of the car. About five years ago I get a call asking if it was possible for the motor oil to...

I saw a similar concept today at the PRI Show. See-through filter mounts. Much easier to hold pressure as opposed to the filter canister. Not quite as cool to look at but interesting nonetheless.

Ivory. So pure it floats.

Depends on how much driving a new-old pickup is worth to you. I have a 1978 Corvette with 48 miles on it. I warm it up and drive it around the block every now and again to keep it running well. Been considering slapping new tires on it and making it a daily driver. Would halve the value in a...

I would try to find a used tire of the same model with similar tread... next option would be finding a NOS tire and having it shaved to match. Both of those can be time consuming so set of four it is, you might get a couple bucks for the remaining three...

I remember this from years ago, saw somebody post it on another forum today. (Yes, I know it's supposed to be LeSabre)

I'm in Tallahassee right now and Walmart has regular at 3.09. I just paid 3.69 there for 93. From what I've heard lately this area is close to, if not the cheapest in the state, which is unusual. Back home it's about 3.30 for 87 and has been for a couple weeks.

I would have done the same but it wasn’t my car. Customer wanted it replaced because it was “time.” So replaced it is.

Believe this was the original filter. Car is garage kept, driven about 3 miles a day. Replaced with Carquest 479954, which turned out to be a private label MANN filter anyways.

Nice! Thanks for the photos. I probably flew on that Concorde way back...

The 10/20/10 minimum here is laughable.

Exactly. It's not that complicated. I've bought and sold dozens if not over a hundred cars privately, not nearly as many as some people here but still a lot. Nearly all states have an official motor vehicle bill of sale form. Fill it out, do it before a notary if that makes you feel better...

I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe change the filter early if you're worried about debris in the engine.

I've had no experience with those particular pliers, but I've always found these sort of "all-in-one" tools to be ineffective. For the same money or a little more you could buy a security bit set and some decent extractors and be set.

Somebody will shoehorn it into a Miata by next month

Getting my models confused; there was a '63 and a '63.5 but I don't think there was a '64.5, or at least it was no different from a '64.

"I went to SEMA and all I got was this lousy jacket!" I'll wear it to PRI in Indy next month This was my third year going, 2018, '19, and '21, of course nobody went last year...

I agree, the only car I think looks better is (unpopular opinion) the early C3 corvette, I used to own a 1968 L89 convertible in British Racing Green. WHY did I sell it? Oh well. I'm working on a '64 Galaxie 500 XL right now with a 429/C6, originally a 390 car. In decent shape. Has front bucket...
