    Honda CB 360 - any good?

    I've never ridden a motorcycle but i found a 1975 honda CB 360 that needs a battery and a starter... is that a good starter bike or one to play around with? its not much to look at but he might let me have it for 40 or 50 bux... i'm not sure how hard it would be to register though... hassle?

    Time to say goodbye

    it needs a wash and matching rims, and maybe some color-coordination in the interior, but other than that its looks clean. too bad you're on the east coast.

    Time to say goodbye

    THAT IS WHY YOU'RE GIVING UP!? ....wimp. j/k but seriously...why are you ending it at that? if it runs great and you have no fears of potential breakdowns (you've taken care of it and wont get RK or a BHG) then keep it! what dont you want it again?

    flood cars...stay away?

    huh? those pics were taken AFTER the 12 hour submergence. they pressure washed the thing several times inside and out after they received it from a friend after the flood.. hence the bare-bones interior. take a look.

    well for one this thing has no interior save for a not-so-good seat. and the electronics are bad/going bad now...

    neat search engine

    i found this kinda interesting. finally if you want to search google images and viewing thumbnails, only to click on all of the good ones to see if they are good enough, you can just view them straight up. seems useful for finding desktop pics and such, but if you actually use the XXL search...

    Time to say goodbye

    bye. good luck. you'll be back. do whatever u have to to keep the title clean and work on it as a non-op car for a while. maybe swap something in. do you have a clean, nice chassis? getting something like that for free is amazing and i wish i had that. hell i wish i had another supra...

    flood cars...stay away?

    lol. well even then 100 bux doesnt seem like a huge deal to me...i should save all the money i have but right now i do have 100 bux i could spend. its the money i'd be required to dump in after the fact. and yes its really cheap but where i am in my life this type of project car isnt a good...

    flood cars...stay away?

    they said the electronics are shot..."lost of problems in the switches and cables" i'm not totally sure to the extent of that...but i think that would make things kinda difficult for me... i dunno. im going into college so having two cars isnt practical and i cant use the jeep as a DD... so...

    Cooling Problem? or bad HG?

    OMG OMG!!! THANK YOU!!! case closed. *sigh* +1 for you and i didnt think of the accuracy of the temp reading. totally true.

    Cooling Problem? or bad HG?

    ok, for one...i wouldnt leave my car running without the rad. cap for 15 minutes because the water would heat up, expand, and dump everywhere. and yes the concern about overheating is possibly a valid one...just watch the temp gauge and your filler and shut it off if it starts pouring coolant...

    flood cars...stay away?

    well the drivetrain might have gotten screwed up (the WHOLE car was underwater for 12 hours) and water may have made its way into funny places and started some rusting. i know its a good project now after all your replies, and i want it...but that 100 bux is better spent somewhere else. i'd...

    Found a drawing i did back in HS.

    yeah i like it. you should definitely go back to drawing... i started a poster that says "toyota" in my old art class...never finished it though...btw it was before i had a supra or knew enough about cars to make it really accurate in terms of structure. i did my best to make the parts look...

    did i just ruin ALL of my DVD's and CD's? holy shit...

    possibly for special pens? i dont know the chemical composition of either thing so as far as i know there could have been acids in the pen that could have eaten into the plastic. but you're right. thanks guys.

    Cooling Problem? or bad HG?

    SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH. holy crap search. i cant emphasize that enough. no GO!!! i'm not answering your question until you do because the answer is already on this forum numerous times and maybe even in a writeup. i'm not trying to be mean. i'm trying to save energy.

    did i just ruin ALL of my DVD's and CD's? holy shit...

    ok. thanks. now the only thing i'd be partially worried about is the tons of valuable disks meant for long-term storage of our media... i might have to copy those to new DVD's. but maybe the DVD's will die before the pen markings hurt them anyway. personally i dont yet understand how a...

    flood cars...stay away?

    well i think if i did that i'd want to start with a toyota shell. no offense to jeeps. when i saw this i was like...SICK! cheap offroader! but like you guys just informed me, i was worried lots of stuff, despite prompt after-flood cleaning, would still be shot. they told me they took out...

    flood cars...stay away?

    oh. lol. yeah...maybe. you are probably right. they said it was "submerged for 12 hours" because they parked it by a river before a flood. *oops.* here's the last email; The carburetor seems to be messing up. The Jeep was parked next to the river and it rose. It was submerged...
