Every year around this time when there are some hints that the warm weather is coming, I really start to miss my car. It’s not that I don’t have access to it as it is just out in the garage. It’s just that I’m really eager to get back...

I usually make a point of not mentioning active ebay auctions for feature cars and parts. This is because I am sometimes one of the bidders and don’t want to drive up interest and thus the ultimate final sell price. It is also because I don’t want my opinions...
