Still this - though just not the same as the original little castle buildings filled with old ladies in hair nets steaming burgers at 3:00 am (I am so old!!!)

Set of 4 Goodyear "Stock Car Special" slicks (from CP car) - mounted and car rolled around on them - but never driven-nubs/ink/stickers still showing. D2746 compound (R210 soft) - several years old, most likely mounted after 2008 Solo Nationals. Asking $400 set

1991 Ford F150 XLT, 302, auto, 2WD, ext cab, 6'bed. PS, PB, Air, tilt, cruise, bedliner, step bumper, hitch, sliding rear window, pioneer head unit w/CD. White w/tan interior, 121K miles. Truck has some rust (bottom of x-cab, repaired once) /bumps (minor), but cleans up and looks decent from 50 feet. KBB is $2250 fair - $2725 good - asking $2400 If it sounds like what you might be looking for, shoot me a PM and I will email some pictures this weekend. Not in a real hurry to sell it, but looks like I will need to upgrade to a diesel for a new bigger trailer (and if I do sell it, I will have to be in a hurry to replace it!). (yes Clay, I saw Cleetus may be available.....maybe )

Interesting, but how are you going to "oil" the turbo - splash oiling on a Briggs engine.....

You aren't missing a floor drain in the basement somewhere possibly? Drain for the A/C condenser, or near the hot water tank, or possibly covered up in a finished room?

HE'S HURTING THE BLUE COLLAR EMPLOYEES CAUSE HE HAS A PERSONAL VENDETTA. Really? Please tell me more about this... IT'S NOT GOING TO LOWER TAXES......THEY'VE ALREADY SAID ALL MONEY SAVED WILL GO TOWARDS THE POLITICIANS TO LEGISLATE.....COME ON TAXES AINT' GOING DOWN BRO. I AGREE THERE And as such, I will not see a tax increase to pay for more deficit spending... DIDN'T SAY IT WILL DEVASTATE THE UNIONS.......IT WILL DEVASTATE THE UNION MEMBERS...BLUE COLLAR WORKER'S. AS I SAID ABOVE I'M NOT AGAINST MERIT PAY......BUT SHOW ME OR ATLEAST EXPAIN TO ME HOW IT WILL WORK? I HAVE YET TO HEAR IT. MERIT PAY SITTING BEHIND A DESK AT A COLLECTION AGENCY DOES NOT TRANSLATE TO HOW MERIT PAY WILL WORK WITH PUBLIC SERVICE OR TEACHER'S. Any position can be evaluated based on performance..... REALLY? WHERE'S MY PAY RAISE? I WAS ACTUALLY AWARDED A PAY CUT......MY HEALTH INS, PENSION COST ACTUALLY WENT UP.....SO DID MY GAS EXPENSE, HOME EXPENSES ETC. I'M MAKING LESS THAN I DID LAST YEAR. WE ARE GETTING HIT HARD WITH OUR INS COST AGAIN ALONG WITH PENSION FUND. WE TOOK A PAY FREEZE FOR OVER A YEAR SO OTHER CITY EMPLOYEES WOULD NOT LOOSE THERE JOBS.....TO THEN TUR AROUND AND PAY MORE FOR OUR INS. Guess what, everyone's health insurance went up, and gas, food & utilities went up for everyone. Most in private industry don't have a pension fund, nor do they get comp time, nor are they allowed to perpetually carrry over "sick days" and vacation time. And that said, guys in my industry have had 3 years of pay freezes while these costs went up. In my job I have to constantly stay in the books and renew my certifications, have continuing education and monthly classes which I'm required to pass with a score of 80%. I have over 10 certification's including one that was classified as the most stressful posistion in the city ( which at times i agree with), and I recieve NO extra pay for. I GET LESS THAN 4 HRS ASLEEP ANIGHT, HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH SEVERE SLEEP APENIA DUE TO MY JOB. Am at high risk for 3 types of cancer before i'm at the age of 60 due to particles inhaled on the job, have a bad back and high BP due to my job. All the while working a second job on my days off so my family may have luxuries and so my kids may not know what i went thru as a kid. A noble pursuit to take care of your kids - let me ask - is you position available in the private sector? Would it likely pay more or less than you make now? WE Need to create jobs not destroy Families. Absolutely, and I think Kasich can and will do this - but we need more private sector jobs that produce revenue - more private sector growth and less government bulk means we all get to keep more of our paycheck. My response is in caps in quote.....thats why it's in caps...not yelling. Didn't feel like cut and paste. No problem, my responses are in blue...sorry, I did cut and paste.

Devastating??? Lower taxes and smaller government? Struggling? $80K a year janitors in the schools? I should have such a struggle for so much pay and so little work!!! How will this devastate the unions - actually having merit based increases like REAL businesses? Maybe allow some of the slackers/stealers actually get fired as opposed to being protected at all costs by the union? Oh yea, and while most private industry got no pay raises over the past three years, the unions kept getting theirs - thus continuing to contribute to higher taxes. BTW - most all politicians are assholes, Kasich included, it's just whether or not they do more good than harm - I voted Kasich.

Here's version 2 of the motor ID game, 50's & 60's technology! http://www.americantorque.com/game/60s-V8-engine-ID/ 15/19 - I'm loosing it a little bit...

TTT - make me an offer (for all or part) - New price $450 or $375 w/o radiator

Looking to buy a used fuel cell. Can be either 22 or 32 gallon but is does need to be the 34" wide style with the oval 24 bolt filler plate. This would be the steel can w/bladder type cell. Don't care if the foam is bad or if the bladder is out of date. Fuel Safe, ATL preferred but all considered.

Depends on what you wanted to do - at the kart swap meet yesterday I saw new "clone" motors for $150, Yamaha KT100 for $300. If you want to go shifter - you would have to see what an 80cc bike motor could be had for. I would have to think it could be ready to run for under $1K easily, maybe under $750 total if you shop well. How much under depends on what you want to put on it (into it).

Pics can now be seen here: http://columbus.craigslist.org/rvs/2240087906.html

OK, another kart needs to go... Older Dino shifter chassis - some assembly required (reinstall steering wheel, install seat, add motor (and radiator if required). This kart would make a nice "play kart" - it is NOT going to be competitive in SCCA or any other kart racing group. It has an older (1 1/4"?) axle and no adjustable torsion bars. Good candidate for an air cooled motor or an 80cc shifter motor. Will include a radiator w/mounts and a Medium Caliba seat. Pictures later today. $500

Well, I have worked with some 3 piece wheels in the past (Speedline) and have some now (Real Lite). I'm not sure of your terminology, we always referred to the "centers" - the cast/forged part that mounts on the hub, and then "rim half" as the two pieces that bolt to the center and the tire mounts on these two pieces. I assume you have a bent rim half as the hubs are pretty near impossible to bend, crack maybe, but not bend. We generally just purchased a new "half" if we bent them, but the bends we saw were usually from deflating race tires (at speed) and as such were severe. I would guess you would need to go back to Volk to buy a half - typically they are available in multiple widths to make up multiple width/offset wheels. As far as repair, you might try the wheel repair sponsors here on the site - I would guess they would want to do it as an assembled wheel, but it would be best to let them take a look at it first.

Older HD tow dolly - new lights, good tires (includes mounted spare), good straps (bought new - used about 6-8 times). Need to upgrade to full size trailer for the new project car. Pics here: http://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/2181710427.html $500 obo

El Coyote http://www.elcoyotecincy.com/ Go to the original location out east, get a seat near the fireplace. Margarita's on tap - regular or frozen - my choice, the 50/50. They have (had? -didn't see the others listed on the website) a location up NW and one in N KY, but they just don't seem to be the same.

Great article on manners and rudeness
craig71188 replied to TimTaylor751647545500's topic in Dumpster
Too bad the people that need to see/read the article never will. As it says too many people feel they are just too damn important and should be able to inconvenience (if not endanger) everyone else for their inatentiveness. A few examples in just the past 2-3 days that stick out in my mind... 1) Lady backs out of a space in a gas station parking lot, stops, blocking the drive in and out plus some pumps and sits dialing her phone. 2) People running red lights, or making left turns after the light changes - I'm not talking about the first car or two, but sometimes the third in line. 3) While towing a car home this weekend, guy is in the far right lane of a two lane exit to the right, decides he shouldn't be there, slams on the brakes, crosses both lanes and the median to get back on the freeway to his left. This doesn't even take into account the "passive aggressive" left lane drivers who refuse to move over/drive next to other cars for miles on end. One can only hope stupidity catches up to them someday..... -
Please let me know when you have cash - I'll probably have one of some kind to sell!!!
