That is cool. Thanks for the reply. He ended up in Biloxi right after flight training in Del Rio. I love my parents' stories from those days.

My sister was born in 79 (also in Dover), so it had to be around 76-78 that he was in Biloxi Hurricane Hunting. I’ll ask my mom to be sure.

I got a 2024 Integra Type S (DE5) last June. I wanted an FL5 Type R, but couldn’t find one without dealer mark up. I’m very happy with the Integra.
Just did the rear motor mount last week and will do some brake upgrades but yeah these cars don’t need much to be very fun. Its downright silly how ...

re: Gretsch Jim Dandy Parlor Guitar..
Posted by AthensRattler on 6/1/24 at 7:20 pm
I’ve never played one of those but Parlor guitars are awesome. I fixed up a 1965 Fender F-71. I think they were made by Harmony. A Sears catalog sort of deal. I radiused the fretboard (no radius originally) and bridge (floating bridge) and refretted. It’s fun as hell.
Recently I got a Gibson L-00...

re: How many people have gotten 15 years out of a car/truck?
Posted by AthensRattler on 5/8/24 at 5:02 pm
My 2006 accord just got new tires Sunday. I got 178000 miles out of the stock clutch. It has 179000 now. It’s needed a steering rack and a few elastomers to fix oil leaks (crank sensor and vtec solenoid) over the years. Great car, I hope to get another 100000 out of it at least. I do have 2 other ve...

Cool I’m off Harden Hill. Look for my blue Integra Type S. It’s only a measly 320 HP but can make it feel like your eyeballs are leaving your head in the corners. I had spent over a year trying to get a civic Type R at MSRP. I finally realized that wasn’t going to happen. I got this Acura and it’s a...
