    Nissan 370Z Paint-SS?

    Haven't been here in a while, but a thread came up on another forum, and I know someone here would know the answer. Is it true that Nissan (specifically on the 370Z) is single stage-no clearcoat? It's being claimed on another forum I'm on. I just find it hard to believe, but don't have any...

    Kart Workshop

    So technically, it's not a garage, but here goes... This is a room in the back of a building I own. It wasn't really rentable space, so I decided to make it into a kart workshop. During the season, I have a garage at the track where I store my karts and everything, but it's too cold to...

    Hyloft Hyder Wall System on sale

    Was just looking at these and found them on sale so I thought I would pass it along. If you have areas where it would be nice to have some storage, but don't have much depth, these are great. I've got a couple of them in my stairway down to the basement. One for cleaning supplies and one for...

    Not really a 'cat person', but some of these are sooooo funny.

    Laminate Countertop?

    Starting to put together my (kart) garage workshop and was wondering about something. What about using pre-fab kitchen countertops with laminate as workbench tops? I have shelving units that I'll be making the bottom of the workbenches / counter out of (two 12 foot sections) and just need a...

    swing arm halogen lights?

    I know I've seen them, but now I can't find them! Does anyone know who carries them? They're wall mounted swing arm (two section) halogen work lights. Just like the tripod light heads but on a wall mount. I think they were bright green? I've searched on line (HD, Lowe's, Sears) and Googled every...

    Wife got dinged-but at least it's shiny!

    Just got this pic from my wife. She was sitting in a parking lot (good thing she was still in the car) when a car pulled in beside her. Kid in the passenger seat throws open his door hard enough to do what you see below. 2006 Aucra RSX-S in Nighthawk Black Pearl. I guess she really laid into...

    Possible detailing product...

    This is a bit off the normal detailing path, but here goes: On my kart suit, I have a big problem with staining from chain lube and exhaust on the back. Tried everything that is suppose to work for grease and oil stains - Oxyclean, Charlie's, Zout, dry cleaning, etc. Scrubbed and scrubbed and...

    SPAM Question?

    I know a bunch of you out there are professional spammers. ;) Figured someone would know this. Recently, I've been getting a lot of spam through my filters that are just random words. Maybe 30-50 words that make no sense and are not trying to sell me anything. Now, I assume that these are...

    Duluth Trading Company?

    Has anyone ever ordered from them? I (for some reason) started receiving their catalog and it looks like they have some nice stuff. Couldn't find many reviews on line for them though. Their clothes remind of what what Banana Republic use to be-clothes that you would get tired of before they wore...

    Dell...and why they suck

    So I bought a new Dell laptop 18 months ago and did their "Preferred Customer Financing". Preferred?? What a joke! It was 0% for 18 months. My balance was down to just a couple of hundred dollars and I was going to pay it off this month when the program ended. Get my bill today, and my...

    refrigerator repair?

    Anyone know anything about refrigerators? Here's the situation. I have a bad _____ that controls the defrost. Don't know if it's the heating coil, timer or what, but it's obviously not defrosting. Took the inside back panel off in the freezer (it's a GE side by side) last night and the...

    Solicitation E-mails - what's your breaking point?

    There are a few companies I've signed up for to get e-mail about specials, etc. The vast majority I check / or uncheck the 'send me crap' box when I register on a site. But I do like getting specials from Sears, Herrington catalog and a few others. However, it seems that recently they've...
