Oh, there’s no doubt in my mind. Read more

I used the 7" polisher from Harbor freight, along with their polishing pads. For occasional use, it is the best $35 (on sale) I’ve spent in the detailing tools category. Read more

Thanks David! Read more

Honestly I had no idea what to price it at. I must have under-priced it a bit? It seemed like Craigslist was swamped with Rangers. Admittedly, this one had 25k less miles than next most comparable one for sale. Apparently lowish mileage, 4x4, V6, rust free and somewhat clean Rangers sell fast in the Kansas City area.… Read more

Thank you! I nearly bought it for myself...but I have waaaaay too many vehicles to be doing that. Read more

Thanks for the comment and for taking a read. Road trips, especially ones that seem far-fetched at first, are the material from which memories are made.

If you’re interested in the nitro on-road style, some cheaper options I’d suggest looking into are: Read more

I’d love to see a picture of that SuperTen! Read more

I’ve been afraid to add it all up. This chassis in particular is expensive to work on, but there are much more affordable chassis out there. If I were to guess, about $600. Read more

That’s the best part - you can do this all in a work space the size of a computer desk. Read more

I’ve been looking around for a nitro on-road racing class, but there is nothing locally (Kansas City). Nitro R/Cs are a dying breed unfortunately. Read more

Dang, I should have done that. I’ll see if I can grab a quick video and post it here. Read more

All you need to do is get a set of test leads like these:

Thanks - yep, it was this truck! Read more

Now that’s beautiful. Read more

That’s a reasonable question. This engine has many miles on it, and internal wear (rings, bearings) has inevitably occurred. In the future (not sure when exactly) I do plan to do a proper engine-out rebuild. Of course, that will require a great deal of time and money which I need to prepare myself for. This repair was… Read more
