pmax, if you can't find the book you're looking for, Confucius say -- you must be in the Wong Fu King bookstore! Check it out i.e. in Hong Kong, an actual store which you can google. I think you might be there momentarily, so just ask the owner for the name of his shop!

I’ve always wanted to open a Vietnamese noodle shop and call it Pho King.

I realized I misspelled it. Correct is the Wong Fook King bookstore. Google it and you'll see a picture of the actual bookstore. Pho King sounds like a good start. How could it be marketed better? Ask Adam maybe since he has a marketing degree. Raw has a degree in Pho King, and he likes noodles, so he could be a solid lead on that idea you may still have up your sleeve.

It's up something other than his sleeve! :eek:

Of course the flanking shops are nails and massages. Raw could run the massage joint. I don’t know who other than MIB has soft hands, but I wouldn’t go into business with him.

What? You don't like getting abused when you disagree with him?

Matt Monson 03-09-2020 09:20 AM

Price too high.

"WTF do guy like the original poster of this thread" or someone interested in the value of a full set RUF gauges from the BTR era "that may not be familiar with the culture here in MPF think when a well meant post goes off the rails like above..."

it's a targa too so with the water infiltration they just may fog up during washing and rain events.

Matt Monson 10-04-2020 04:54 PM

Smart targa owners just leave it off and let it drain out the holes in the floor

I actually did that with a 67 convertible bug I brought to Costa Mesa from Dallas. Before I left Texas had the motor rebuilt, hopped up, then had a fresh paint job in red done at Earl Scheib for a few hundred bucks. As a joke, left the top down for three years straight in the campus parking lot. Great beach car as we'd all pile in, 10 minute drive down to Newport Beach with our books to study. We were all Female Anatomy majors. Yes, and there was sufficient drainage in the floor pans, even though it never rains in California. It only pours.

Is it wrong or does it make me a bad person if I felt a little movement down there when those cows were dancing?

Deez would be able to answers that better than I. I forgot about that one. Absolutely hilarious!! Just goes to show the American dream can come true, any shape or form.

Grab those while you can pmax! Now's the chance you've been waiting for. I'm afraid though these won't work on your car either. It's too slow. They may be a nice addition to your car, but speedometer missing is good since your car won't go very fast or fast enough or even close. No boost gauge is good too since you only use your clock to tell you how long it takes you to get from point A to point B. Finally, if you do grab them, double check that you don't blow your motor on red line. Otherwise, enjoy having some, a couple faded looking Ruf gagues!

I think that owners of naturally aspirated 911s would be better served using a sundial, as opposed to a conventional clock, for measuring the time it takes to get somewhere!

It's true, yet for many it's all they've ever known so it's only pure ignorant bliss. Some others have that desire and urge to get out of the rut, but they don't have the means. They own their cars and must live with them now for better or worse. A Kiwi once told me, the only thing worse than being in a rut is to be six feet under it, that is, the rut.

Be sure to make sure they are authentic. Might just be a replacement face cover.
