  1. WHO actually DID ATTEND a Fundraiser when Albo was shuffling sandbags with the Qld LNP Premier in the WET? Wrong Button Dutton. Nev
  2. 2 stroke oils reduce carbon build up and mix with petrol better. It you had a 2 stroke bike in the 50's you'd decoke tit and the exhaust port about every 1500 Miles. You just used straight 50 engine oil at a high rate. Same with A SEAGULL outboard which had Plain bearings as Ball races wouldn't last long near salt water. Mix was about 3:1 . Nev
  3. Trump would not KNOW what it Meant. Nev
  4. I don't think so Pete. The FORD set up was unique with its stabiliser bars and the Need for their OWN spring spreader to install it. I wasn't pro Ford at all. I found them quite hard to work on and didn't like the gearboxes. Tended to break the ODD tooth off a gear.The T model was sun and Planetary. A very clever set up. No Clutch needed...Nev
  5. 100:1 is a bit light on especially for a motor that doesn't get fully warmed up. TCW3 is the environmental oil but is NOT recommended in any Aero engine, even the Liquid cooled ones. IF you are going to up the Output( I wouldn't bother) I'd especially look into a "better" oil or inject a squirt in before starting and when not using it much.. Nev
  6. Poms have had a Penchant for 3 wheelers. Even BSA made one. The"Morgan Aero" would be one of the Most notable and there's some "HORRIBLE ones. Bond etc.Nev
  7. You Probably ate at VLADOS. The WAGYU Beef was done in TASSIE. Not easy to get a Japanese breed. nev
  8. That would be THE question. I'd be somewhat sceptical of it being a money spinner.. Nev
  9. Chevrolet didn't make any side valve models that I know of. Could be a Ford Model A (orB). Later Fords had Welded spokes. (Quite Nice) in the 30's. Should be worth something more than Just scrap. The Fords have leaf springs across the front and rear.. Nev
  10. USA shoots itself in the foot in rapid time. When there's NO TRUST there's NOTHING, Donald. (the DOPE) . TRUST cannot be demanded, or Bought. It has to be earned. You've LOST it in 2 months, Buddy.
  11. EVEN Musk Knows that. Get out of it ( AUKUS )while you MAY retrieve some of the Money. WE can't COUNT on Getting ANYTHING from TRUMP. Nev
  12. They wedge in a rivetted steel hub. I've been in a 1929 Six cyl Chev dickie seat and heard them Creaking as we went along
  13. Is Road dust Plastic? More likely brake pad and disc materials and rubber. Nev
  14. BOTH MY orbital sanders Karked it.. Good news is My 1962 Ford Dexta tractor sprang into life after sitting idle for over 2 years. One shot of "start Ya Bastard" and it turned over 1/2 a turn and fired up running perfectly. It will get a bit of TLC and back to work. That will surprise the Neighbours.. Nev
  15. No Power steering, Heaters or Airconditioning then. Some brakes were by Cables. No crumple zones Vaccuum, operated windscreen wipers which slowed up then you accelerated. No turn signals. SOME euro ones had semaphore. Hand signals other wise. 6 Volt electrics. No synchro on first gear and only 3 speeds. No front brakes prior to 1928. and often wooden spoked wheels. Nev
  16. So did I. Great minds think alike? Around about 1950 a Tyre cost a weeks wages and lasted about 8000 miles.. A grease and oil change every 1,000 miles. Check your oil water and battery acid level frequently . That is IF you could even afford a car. Nev
  17. The more things you check the better your luck is. Nev
  18. America is DIFFERENT, Them Black fellows has the temerity to come there as slaves and breed. and Guns are given to young kids by Their Parents and Ya gotta have that old time religion and make lotsa dough. OMG how good is that? WEEZ da good guys. . Nev
  19. My daughter grows good avocadoes, near Hastings. Nev
  20. Nurses and Doctors are some of the smartest and nicest people I've ever known. I've seen Plenty of extremely RUDE patients they HAVE to put up with. Spent today doing a CT scan in Melbourne. Nev
  21. Troll on. You are a Hero. FACTS don't matter. Ban words. Don't answer questions put to You. Nasho will fix it. . Nev
  22. Driving on slicks. Ordered to do so by the team manager,. Nev
  23. Just a BIT unscientific, in the terms used., Nev
  24. Trump SAYS America doesn't HAVE many Genius's. IF he has his way no-one will be educated either. Nev
