    I would think that a 76 bug would be air cooled. My extra radiators fit a 73 F250 Ford with an FE engine, and a Datsun Zcar radiator. Lots of Datsun zcar stuff. Lots of FE Ford stuff... and lots of plain old stuff. 35 years of accumulation, since wife and I were married.

    Seven years ago when I retired, one of my main goals was to clean out the shop of things that I no longer needed to free up some room. It is worse now than when I retired. I'm finding things new in the box like F100 air filter, spark plugs for a Tbird, flexible brake lines, etc. etc. I put them...

    Flu is getting worse.

    Dave; :sorry Here in Redding, the hospitals are maxed out. People getting out of surgery do not have a bed to go to. Sorry to hear about your mother. It is three weeks exactly that we contracted the flu. I do not have a clue as to when we will be well again. Keep a close watch over your...

    Out of the mouth of babes!

    That is great... My brother told me, many years ago, when his son was 4 years old, and was watching a program on tv about dinosaurs, and his son asked him what was it like living with the dinosaurs.

    Flu is getting worse.

    Thanks guys; She is on four different medications now. We go back to the doctor tomorrow to see if she is getting better. If she is not, she goes to the hospital. She is 65, and for the very young and the very old, it is more difficult for the immune system to fight off viruses. Of...

    Fuel Mileage?

    :lmao I don't know about anyone else, but the one time I got 21 mpg was when I drove at 50-55 mph for 100 miles. At 70 mph I get a steady 18.5 mpg. I drive like a old man, because I am an old man. Anyone getting 22 mpg at 75 mph, is doing way better than anyone I ever heard of. I did have a...

    It has been 19 days since we contracted the flu. I am and have been for a week at 95% during the day and 90% in the evening...The wife on the other hand has been getting worse and worse. I took her to the doctor yesterday and they said that if she does not show improvement in the next two days...

    MPG question

    My range empty at 70 mph is 2072 miles. :lmao That is if I used every drop of my main 38 gallon tank, and every drop of my 74 gallon in bed tank. (not going to happen). Leaving 5 gallons in the aux tank and 4 gallons in the main tank a more realistic range is 1,900 miles. That is figuring 18.5...

    Tire Size Guru and MPG

    245/75r17 tire is 31.46 inches diameter 265/75r17 tire is 32.64 inches diameter You would have to have 36 inch tires to get the same rpm as a stock truck with 3.73 gears. The heavier tire would lose some of the mpg gain. stock 2006 psd 18 inch tire is 275/70r18 equals 33.15 inches...

    We're shopping for a new car as well

    To bad you are stuck on diesel. The 2007 Ford Focus SES that the wife bought is a great car and gets very good mpg. Very low maintenance, comfortable, and 33-37 mpg on the hwy. We tested the accord, camry, kia's and others, but came back to the Focus. Of course the Focus is not in the same...

    what would you charge per mile?

    Owning or doing business in California is crazy. Years ago, I started a company named Redding Air Tours, and bought a Cessna 210 and started flying people around. I also did some instructing. When liability insurance went up to $1,000,000 I decided to close the company. Also lawyers have very...
