It is entirely possible to swap an entire Ford F100 body onto a late model Ford Crown Victoria frame, such that you end up with a car that looks like a classic Ford pickup, but drives like a P71 interceptor, which isn’t much better than a classic pickup, but rack-n-pinion and fuel injected V8 is […]
People on the interwebs use the term “LS” to describe just about any small block Chevy V8 from the last 20 years — but the more accurate term is the Gen III, IV, & V small block V8. Gens I & II were based on the original 1955 small block V8, but in 1996, GM […]

Okay…I thought that honeywagon was slang for the sewage pumper trucks that empty port-a-johns…but apparently there is a Hollywood version that contains a number of private dressing/bath rooms for actors/actresses/producers. Still full of s*#@ on most days. Find this 19?? Cab Over With 8 Room Honeywagon here on eBay bidding for $26,500 in North Hollywood, CA with 4 […]
I can’t be the only one who fantasizes about driving a big old truck. Driving a truck might not be a profession that your high school guidance counselor will recommend…but how many more Pharmacists does the world need…and I want to shift gears all day until my arm is swole. But I don’t want to […]
It is Wednesday, which means time for DT’s favorite hump day game — also known as Mid Week Match-Up. As the leaves fall from trees (not out here in California, we don’t really have seasons…but I visited the great state of PA the other day and autumn was gorgeous!) we need to prepare for WINTER…so, it […]
