I've always avoided extended warranties by doing my homework on things I buy and only buying top quality, but this one worries me. It's loaded with all the electronic bells and whistles and is a really nice ride, plus has the towing capacity I need to tow the bird from Florida to NC. I'll be setting it up with a load leveling hitch.

Any advice from owners of Raniers, Envoy's, or Trailblazers?

BTW, we trailed our Model A all over the country with the old 01 Pathfinder, but the extra 900 pounds of the bird was a little too much to risk.

Thanks in Advance,

Bob C.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/160472/source-for-matching-terraplane-paint Mon, 21 May 2012 00:34:25 +0000 jtroberg 160472@/forum/discussions

That is by placing an '@' sign directly in front of a username, that person would be alerted that they have had a reply, or a mention, in a Discussion.

Simply put, I'm afraid this function will not work if you have a space in your username. Unfortunately there is no 'fix' for this. It can be coded, but the advice from the techs is that this would cause issues down the the road.

So, in order to the reply feature work you will need to close up your username ('nickcarraway' rather than 'nick caraway'), or use an underscore (nick_carraway), however the closed option is preferable. A hyphen will work, but again, closed is the better option, followed by underscore.

Here's a guide on how to change your username.

1. Click your current username as it appears in the top navigation, above the forum:

2. In the new screen, look to the left-hand side, and click 'Edit My Account'

3. In the 'Edit My Account' pop-up box, go to the Username field, and close-up the space in your username. Press 'Save', and you're done. By the way, should you ever want to change your username, this is the process to do so.

I am at the point of putting the body back on the frame.
Yes, I do owe the forum some build pics!

Mine was a Honda N600. A beast of a machine. 77.1 mph (124.1 km/h), accelerating from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 19 seconds. Mine was metallic silver, and it had a cool ski car vibe about it. I also liked that the gear shift that was up high and on an angle, which, in my mind at the time, screamed racing car.

Sadly, it and I were only together for a few months, all that raw power killed the engine. Vale Honda N600.

How about everyone else? What were you first let loose on the road with?]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/160405/taking-a-break-from-the-forum Sun, 13 May 2012 21:31:41 +0000 50C8DAN 160405@/forum/discussions
Perhaps one day this forum will return to its old easy to use ways, but until that time I will seek out other ways to get my Hudson fix. Sorry to say good bye for now.

Hudsonly Yours,

I am about to start restoring a R. Straman 1986 300ZX Convertible and the body pretty solid and so is the interior is in good condition. What I help need help with is the engine has 250,000 miles and starting breaking down. On a car of this year would it really matter if I got a new engine or would it be best to try to keep it as orginal as possible and rebuild it

Thank for any help or comment

I'm trying to put an approximate date to an old photograph. This automobile was cropped from the photo so that more detail is visible. In an educated guess, this photo was probably taken sometime around 1915. I figure that by identifying the automobile I should be able to better verify this. I don't really know that much about older cars like this, so I figured I'd ask the experts. Any help you can provide would be appreciated!
