Late Night With A Ford Taurus

 

I know I’m a car nut and addict, I’ve come to terms with it, but what about you? Here you are, on some guys automotive site. Hopefully you’re at work, in which case you get a pass. If not, you’re clearly a dedicated car enthusiast, looking up automotive topics in your free time, but have you gone too far? Here is how you know if you’re in too deep to go back too. See how many of the below apply to you. If its more than one or two…

  • I think spending 15 dollars for a cheeseburger is ridiculous, but $1000 for a cast aluminium cylinder head would be a bargain at any price!
  • I don’t stop until a job is done. I woke up one morning to start a project, and when I went to bed I realized I forgot to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner, and didn’t feed the proverbial dog either.
  • Given the choice between car work and a vacation, I’d ask the question “what’s the difference?”
  • Is it dark out? That’s ok I have lights! Is there lightening outside? That’s ok its only 1 in a million! Is it snowing? That’s ok, I have a jacket! …wait, why am I working outside right now?
  • I know the piston to valve clearance of a 1976 L82 350 SBC, but what is the color magenta? Isn’t it a purple or a blue or something? Who knows.
  • I bought a car that was 3000 miles away, and picked it up myself. Because it was the ONLY one good enough!!

  • You already know what that part does, and you are already trying to figure out what engine its on. I’ll give you a hint, it is from 1986.
