Damn I want that caddy

[jonbearsmt 919]

very nice.

 

 my best friend has one that i work on from time to time,.  its a few years newer but nice aswell.. TONS of money in the drive train.

 

 

 

 it was funny when we met he has a new school DTS, and was building this 70 lac... and i had a new school town car, and i was building my 75 lincoln... so we hit it off quickly.

 mine,

I love old Lincolns.  The only real Caddy I would ever own would be a 59.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Although, i guess I can't say that since I once owned an 84 Fleetwood.  I do kinda miss that thing.

Going for a bit of an overhaul on the bike:

New front and rear shifters (got lucky and found both NOS for peanuts on ebay)

Better brakes and shiny new brake pads

New brake levers (so I can move these to my old bike and get that functional again)

New rear cassette and new chain. 

 

And I almost fucked my rear rim because one of the pads wore out completely. There is a big valley in the middle of the braking surface all the way around

Salmon pads are the shit

 

I went with dual compounds but most of the pad is salmon

 

And by the looks of things I will have to buy a new rim. The gash is 1mm deep and I'm not sure I want to run it like that.

[Adrian_D 520]

The brakes and one of the shifters should arrive tomorrow so I can commence the overhaul.

yikes I drove an old brougham for a while as well best $10 I ever spent

[ssh 924]

First week tracking my gas mileage......16.8mpg, mostly highway

 

Need a more fuel efficient vehicle, bad.  Switching to something that gets mid 20's would save me $1500/yr in gas.

I managed 27 on mountain roads and loaded (3 people and luggage) going to the ski resort, quite impressed.

Imperial gallon, or US gallon?

I spent $400 on it at an auction, but it had triple gold Daytons on it and a gold grill and back in the late 90s that was guaranteed money.  I drove it for a couple months and sold it for $3K.  That thing rattled like nothing else though.

I loathe G-wagens. 

 

Heavy, underpowered diesels (older models), very expensive, don't flex, narrow and tall. What else can I say?

[dem beats 1,223]

A lot of crawler machines here like the more narrow stances. Gets through wooded areas better.

Hopefully this deal goes through.
