Oilcan-Harry commented on Dealer Wrecks Customer's Koenigsegg CCX

"A little duct tape, a quart of bondo, some super glue, about 12 feet of baling wire, some touch-up paint and the customer will never know. OR. Pro Tip: Give customer a glass of champagne with a little Chloralhydrate in it, then take him to where you've staged the accident, and leave him sleeping peacfully. Be concerned when he calls, remind him how you pleaded with him not to drive in the "shape he was in". Repair job? Profit. Still, a very sad sight. I'll swap a 59 Yellow Jacket with matching original Scott Atwater, and mfg's trailer for it, just like it sits."

Oilcan-Harry commented on Mustang Cover Boy Tries To Corner, Flips Over Tire Wall

"@Michael Coury: Good eye mang! The muffler shop guy here will build what looks like a foo-foo rollcage, and huge light support for the 4 wheel drive set (and believe me, they do get upside down). His bracing and positioning of his front loop and back stiffening bars while you can see they are well made do not look heavy enough, and the forward structure is just held in position by 12 pinned clips. I've watched my kid go for the long roll over and over, and while it wasn't pretty to watch, every time that truck rolled up where we could see the rollcage was still standing firm it was like Vulcan had built it himself."

Oilcan-Harry commented on OnStar Disables Tahoe In High-Speed Chase

"@buick61: Still no reason to like the idea of you'r car snitching on you. As you know, OnStar can listen in on conversations within the automobile, with the driver and passengers none the wiser. I have actually heard discussions regarding the possibility of onboard systems which would be designed to notify authorities if you were making too good of time, and OnStar wasn't the system they were talking about, they were talking about a system setup to tag truckers who got across a state too fast, but they also said that auto rental companies were considering installing a similar system in thier cars. If you think the little Emag pulse unit is tinfoil hat technology you are way behind the times."

Oilcan-Harry commented on Shop Techs Give Seven Reasons GM Went Bankrupt

"@veronykah: The T-Top is polarised and deeply tinted it's nice to have an "up" window! Also It only takes a second or two to pop em and slide them into thier protective covers and put em where they go. The T-Top is not noisey, and when running with them stowed gives a near ragtop experience riding with the tops off, better in that air doesn't invade the entire passenger compartment as a hurricane, if I want battered by the wind I'll ride a motorcycle thank you! Not quite as good for drive-bys due to the fact that you can't swing you'r barrel as far, as easily. Ragtops had about a 99% rollover survivability fail, I have had several ragtops A Sunbeam Alpine, A 64 Dodge Dart, and a 69 Firebird, an MGA Roadster, so I'm not anti ragtop. T-Tops have structure which while not a true roll-cage, give better survivability, especialy belted drivers and passengers have a better chance of not getting you'r head mashed by the road, field, bridge, ect.. Several high dollar rides have T-Tops and sections which remove or retract into the automobile giving the driver and passenger an undeniabley more interesting ride than a hardtop provides. Driving a car should be an invigorating experience, the feeling of freedom is part of that. Stop by some place with some fast used cars take a test ride and feel the magic of the T, nice huh? Have fun ya'll."

"LOLZ!!!A Boston Whaler?This must be some new as of yet undiagnosed mental aberation.All he had to do was call my pal Ken and he could'a bought the same craft, with about 65 hours of it.Pro Tip: Dude, next time steal something worth having, like say a Donzi, or a Cigarette, are maybe even a Skater,a big BlueWater, or a Wally Power Plushie, but a Boston Whaler?"

"My friend drove a Camero and didn't like it as a cop car because of the way to seat was positioned relative to the door, it made you have to put you'r body in a vulnerable position for just long enough for someone desperate enough to risk a rockfight with a Trooper to take that chance."
