This thread is a large part of why I just bought a non running Datsun, so good job.

Mine only had to go 50 yards to get home, though, not 2000 miles. Shine on you crazy diamonds.

If I went to my local Napa and asked for premixed coolant they'd probably stare at me like I was nuts and then tell me to use a garden hose and a bucket like a normal person.

A garden hose? That's loving criminal, man; distilled is only like $0.99/gallon and then you don't get lovely mineral deposits inside your cooling system.

My Studebaker was turbo-hosed with 40+ years of garden hose water; luckily vinegar is also like $0.99/gallon and solves the problem pretty well.

You're not throwing out the engine, are you? I've got a soft spot for inline engines, I think they're cool as gently caress. Is that a 6 or an 8?

My last bus trip (greyhound, only about a 5-6 hour ride) I decided I'd never do that poo poo again. :v: I don't know why people on the bus are always crazy people.

I've always assumed it's because crazy people get banned from flying for being crazy, but Greyhound just looks the other way cause they need the fares.

Also it's way easier to bring your personal supply of whatever drugs you prefer on the bus.

Being productive is the best therapy.

Can we team up with some video production goons and make our own 14-inch / warboys themed roadkill-a-like youtube show where we send 14 around the country in a war-rig RV, buying random clunkers and getting them running? I'd patreon that poo poo in a heartbeat.

Get SSS to summarize the thread (with pictures) and send the document to Freiburger. Seems like they can get a camera crew out to most anywhere.

14", you don't have PMs so I'm just going to drop this in here and maybe some other Washington folks will also chime in. ExplodingSims, hope you don't mind, I just wanted to make sure Dick sees it.

I'm going to be in Washington over Christmas, and since I'm coming up pretty empty here in NM it might be a good time to try and find a 280ZX transmission. Can you recommend any salvage yards? I'd be willing to pay a bit more at a place that pulls the parts themselves so I don't have to lay in the December rain as a rusty Datsun slowly pushes my jack into the mud. If I can get a couple candidates, I can contact them now and see what they've got.

But I don't think that will fit, as even this V8 is a pretty tight fit. But, Kastien suggested the L18, which based on what I've seen, does look like it'll fit.

AI is so weird. In PYF, when you ask for help, you get your opinion criticized to hell and back, ridiculed, or told to do the exact opposite of what you should do. In Games, they just tell you to GET GUD.

Here you strange people are, actually helping out. I don't get it.

Why would you ask anything in PYF? That's the forum for people who would list their interests as "Buzzfeed lists", "the 90s", and "Netflix"; if they knew anything about anything, they'd be posting in a different forum.

Livestock auctions are a good time. They were more fun back when you could smoke indoors and the whole auction house would be a constant roil of cigarette smoke as 200 old farmers puffed furiously and tried to squint through the fog at what they were bidding on.

Dick emits a homing signal to police. He interacts with cops 100x more frequently than anyone I've met, so I'm not really surprised he's running into them just sitting on the bus.

There are waffle houses in Amarillo and a Huddle House in Lubbock in a former Waffle House building. There are a few in Albuquerque as well. I didn't bother looking further west, but it's a safe assumption there are waffle houses in California as well.

There are two here in Albuquerque. To my shame I've never gone. There are no Waffle houses in California, although there are some in Arizona.

I don't know about the waffle houses, but the Standard Diner in Albuquerque was pretty good when I was last out that way.

Yeah but that's like a totally different category from Waffle House.

I've been meaning to try the diner on Central they kept using in Breaking Bad, it looks like just the right level of slightly run down that the food could be both cheap and good.

Dear god finding New Mexican food in DFW is difficult (regular Mexican food is pretty easy to find). I know of one place where the owner is from Canutillo (TX, but it's right on the border of NM), food there is decent. About as close to home as I've been able to find here.

I've made this recipe a couple times and it's quite good. A little bit involved, but very flavorful. http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/12/carne-adovada-adobada-chili-braised-pork-recipe.html

I'm making it today, in fact. Didn't have any orange juice concentrate so I just added a little bit of sugar to balance things out.

ahem - chicken fried steak.

I never heard it called country fried before I moved to Florida.

It's not super consistent but theoretically I think chicken fried = deep fried, country fried = pan fried.

Chicken fried is superior.
