Who's Who

I'm curious about the composition of the forum members. Some really know the complexities of the automobile. My knowledge and experience are fair. Nonetheless, I'm from San Diego, CA. I was at the Last Supper so I got some mileage behind me. Retired submariner (diesel-electric), retired Building Automation Engineer. In addition to going deep sea fishing occasionally, I participate in three other forums- computers, medicine and flight simulation. I am also a volunteer tutor in math at one of our middle schools. I tried senior citizen forums but all I hear are their Geritol, Ben-Gay and Metamucil plus most drive Buick. I'm not there yet. Nice to chat with yaw'll.

Just a crazy network engineer from Pittsburgh here...

As for me, I'm about a decade away from that Metamucil thing,
I still enjoy tinkering with my cars and motorcycle. and just for grins,
here's one of my experiments a few months back. I ended up removing the "Improvement:

I call it BLAVETTE
http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/11/web/695000-695999/695626_15_full.jpg

I got some new wheels and tires for my corvette, so I added the old set-up to the Blazer (Blavette) just for laughs
they're 255ZR50-16s :grinyes:

Well I'm 36, former Ford (you guy's hate me now) apprentice wrench swinger. Present handyman.
Presently trying to get my own thing happening not related to cars.
Like fishing, camping and the great out doors.

Picture was taken at a seafood party last weekend, and I'm the middle guy

After having fixxed engineres problems for years I don't like them either, But I'd love to see Rlith design a car.

Unlike most engineres he knows how to work on them, so he knows what works and what doesn't.

Not to mention if you put 1 part 2" over the mechanic might be able to get to it without lifting the motor.

Us old farts probably learn more from these young guys, than they do from us :icon16:

Christ, I wouldn't even know where to begin designing a car! LOL
I leave that to people who have imagination and talent... I just come in and learn how it's put together! :rofl:

Pretty easy thing to do Rob after you leard how, and basicly the same on all forums that I've been on.

You'll need the photo's on some web space somewhere, and copy the photo's actual address.
To do this r- click on the photo, go to properties, and then copy hte web address that you see show.

Type in then paste the address here and type in

done.

Taken this morning before coffee. Don't MESS with me - I have seen it, most likely done it myself, and there is nothing interesting you can possibly tell me until I had my Java... :D I keep a department running at a university, catch-all gopher. Comp. tech, network engineer, software and insturmentation, you name it. I've got stuff with names I have forgotten on shelves, but it's important for others I work with to have it.

Oh, and of course, the rig. And olde-tyme '95 that's just as stubborn as I am in the morning. We're a perfect match.

I'm a senior in packaging at Michigan State University. Working on the Jimmy is getting to expensive now that I'm saving up for an engagement ring. I use it about once a week now and there is a new problem every time. I'm usually tinkering with my mopeds. In Michigan you don't need a helmet or insurance to use one (I wear a helmet anyways). My scooter cruises at 50mph! $2 of gas lasts 2 weeks!
