EDUARDO!! my little brother loved that show, but its never on anymore.

oh, just got in from the delaware water gap show, met up with chris and wound up parking next to him. not a huge show, but pretty nice with a good variaty of vehicles. plus it was a perfect day for a show, not too hot but not rainy and dreary like its been up here. it did pour in the way home though.

Good Afternoon Everyone.......

Happy Birthday Mike! Hope you have a great day!

Wayne, I agree, I love Tire Rack, I don;t live close to one, but I order form them...great company, with great deals! I noticed you said you use Castrol Edge in your Pontiac, what do you think of that stuff??? I've never used anything but Mobil 1 in my Monte, but that Castrol looks like some good stuff. Also, about your truck....My 1989 Silverado had the same problem, do you have drum brakes in the rear? On my truck, it was not the cable that broke, it was actually the metal piece inside the drum that applies the parking brake. It some how broke off and was beating around inside the drum making an awful metallic banging sound when I drove it...When I took off the drum, the piece literally fell out...its hard to explain, but it was definetly part of the parking brake, and like your my parking brake went straight to the floor. Since it happend I have yet to fix it, I just took the piece out, inspected everything and put it back together for now. The brakes work fine, I just don't have a parking brake for now. Its one of those things that I just gotta find the part, and get around to fixing it one of these days.....Let me know what yours turns out to be.......

Have a GREAT Saturday afternoon everyone....its HOT here today, so i'm going to jump in the pool!

hi everyone, just got back from the car show in the delaware water gap area, and let me say it was awesome, there were well over 150 cars at the show, all kinds and all everything, we took some pics but you'll have to wait until i get back home to pittsburgh! as i drove in to register my car a red 94 monte carlo ls was registering behind me so i thought it may be ryan (skylark65) and i jumped out and headed over to see and believe it or not it was my buddy ryan and his dad ranger!!!! he is one cool kid and his dad is a super car guy also. ranger had a ton of stories when growing up fixing cars!! i would love to say more but kinda stupid right now, actually stupid all the time. i have a lot to learn all over again from when i was a kid messing around with cars, i need more info about my car also. everyone at the show was super nice and very friendly, i would definately come back here, although we drove about 300+ miles in my sweet 06 monte, that drove amazing!!!! the show was well worth it!! oh well, see you for now
