Some Updates for you fine folks

Hi! Still alive! Figured I’d post up some updates on the various vehicles. First and foremost, the Morgan. Unfortunately that has stagnated again, much to my chagrin. I know what I want and need to do next (pull apart the … Continue reading

Still Alive~

The cake isn’t a lie. (Sorry if you don’t get that one, game industry joke.) So, what’s been happening. Well, as I mentioned in my December post, my father fell and broke his arm. What’s happened since then is that … Continue reading

Winter Solstice

Wikipedia lists an alternate term for “winter solstice” as “hibernal solstice”, which I definitely think is an appropriate title. I am generally not a fan of cold weather work, especially so being a Californian, and ~45 degree F midday temps … Continue reading

Good Guys

Past week’s been an enlightening one. I’ve come across some potential upgrades for both the suspension and lighting (LED headlights!) that could come in to play, but more importantly I’ve finally had a chance to meet with another local owner. … Continue reading

Sorry for a few months’ silence, been busy. We’ve been spending a number of our weekends on house remodels and such, but I’ve got updates for the MogRod and some other things. First, the Airstream. That’s picked up again, since … Continue reading

No, we’re not addicted to Corvettes, why do you ask?

If the title doesn’t drop a hint, I don’t know what will. My father just decided to sell off his 2006 Cadillac XLR and buy a 2002 Corvette automatic convertible. It’s got only 12k miles on it, everything’s like new, … Continue reading

Measuring up

Well, been asking around for the past while, and so far no luck on getting any kind of external resources for the Pontiac’s drivetrain mounting information. Polaris wouldn’t divulge info, Pontiac wouldn’t divulge info, and even GM’s Archive wouldn’t say … Continue reading

Airstreaming It

So I picked up a 1972 Airstream Ambassador today. Scored it for only $800 from the tow yard a friend of mine works at. I’ll post up about it on here on occasion, since it will become another one of … Continue reading

Part of the reason for downtime on this project…

Like I said, I had to get a replacement for my poor 2001 ‘vert. I’m happy with the choice… As for the MogRod itself, we’re still in the middle of some big remodeling projects around the house which have been taking … Continue reading
