Awesome jam. I will alway remember coming back from the Stones concert in 1969 at the San Diego Sports Arena ( J. Geils opened for them ) ;
Driving back in my cousin Phil's 57' Chevy and the only 8-track we had was Canned Heat and listening to this jam over and over again on the ride back home to L.A.

Good memories

Those tool chests actually look really good in that kitchen.

Starter. Linkage connected it to the starter motor (or commencer as they were called)..
Never heard the old phrase "Step on the starter"?

Actually drove a few old pulpwood trucks that had the floor starter, stove bolt six, twin sticks and a two speed rear.....I think I was 14...

...

Reminds of of when I bought those tires at a blow-out sale.

...

We used to scrounge tires. I found more than a few for my first car, and first bike.
The new Motorcycle Salvage yard on Mission Ave in Escondido was a paradise.

Crazy mods was the '65 Impala Camino sans trunk lid, wish I had a picture.
Bought that car for $250 dollars through our neighborhood legendary mechanic role model hero, Mike Musia.

Sliding through the snow out to Borrego, hauling the wife's built from a $20 seized Cycle Salvage Kawasaki trailbike. She only got one ticket on the street. On that bike.

And! Bad motor dirt bike combined with stripped but new motor street bike, a sold to me by sad owner for $12 impound fee, recovered stolen, titled but kinda not all there, new! Kawasaki 100 street bike!
Oh my.

Cute pup ...

I remember the chopped Dodge. That Dodge is/was a mid-engine on a rear sub-frame. You could view the engine thru the side window. The van was actually built with two interchangeable rear sub-frame assemblies. One for street and a blown hemi set-up for the strip......
Haven't seen it in many years.

I used to gauge those pinch clamps at Tridon, we made them by the millions, big, small, and some have a locking tab, when going down the shoot, the locking tab ones could trigger an entire tote, clamps spring out all over the place.

...

I'm going to spend a bunch getting my Subaru brake line fixed. I never thought of vice grlps. Too late now.

...

That 1st pic is HILARIOUS and no doubt the last pic is of County workers

I can see my wife finding me asleep in the backyard,
'Honey, What are you doing?"
"The mower ran out of gas."
"So, why are you still sitting there?"
"The generator still has half a tank!"

Sorry had to add this....
"Well, Dinner is ready."
"Would you bring it out!"
