    My '92 Cougar: Starting the paint process

    Yeah, the mn12 cougar, thunderbird, and markviii. The Aerostar, astro/safari as well, since most minivans aaside from the mid engine rear drive previa and the mpv, since minvans were mostly fwd. Well the mpv and other awd cars dont count- as they were front wheel biased.

    My '92 Cougar: Starting the paint process

    The only other BOF cars of the 90s were the gm b bodies; Caprice, Impala, Fleetwood, Roadmaster, and Custom Cruiser.

    My '92 Cougar: Starting the paint process

    True, but the Courier is a Mazda rebadged. Like how the Ram 50 was a badge engineered Mitsubishi Mighty Max.

    My '92 Cougar: Starting the paint process

    Thats not a Ranger based truck, none of the parts interchange, Mazda doesn't use Rangers until the second gen Rangers. They did use he first gen Explorer for the Navajo, though.

    Now you know why it's called a B "2200." Mazda trucks are named after their displacement.

    Achieving The IDEAL Bare Metal Look

    Stripping down to nothing and a good hand job...sounds good to me.

    BAJA DIRT BUG

    Okay, was thinking the peoples car. I'd throw on a goped cvt, that thing will really move. A buddy of mine had a sit down goped, claimed a 40mph top speed, I weigh 250, this thing had to be faster. Much qiucker than any 50cc scooter, we took it to the skate park, burnouts, and other goofy crap...

    Show me your bikes with mag wheels!

    Sweet rides, I thought about a set for my sons rat rod, but they arent rim brake friendly.

    geared vs single speed which do you prefer

    I like to go fast, thus my bikes are usually built for speed in mind. I prefer my beach cruisers to be single speed.

    Split Tube?

    What...?!

    Genesis Onyx 29" Cruiser

    That's why I don't trust adjustable stems. I want one of these, but I think I... wait for it... might have enough cruisers for once.

    Wheel Idea

    Have the wheel chromed without the nickel coat.Nickel is what makes the chrome silver. Copper is the first coat of metal in a chroming process.

    Can this be fixed?

    I used to have a bat, that had bike pegs duct taped to it.

    Can this be fixed?

    No, it was about ten at night, we were in the living room, I heard a noise and looked out the window, it was him on the sidewalk picking the bike up(he dropped it like an .....) and riding off. By the time I got to the door he was off. I grabbed mine and lost him in traffic.

    Can this be fixed?

    Thanks guys, it actually just got stolen. By the time I got my road bike out to chase him down, i lost him. Thanks anyways.

    Can this be fixed?

    I just picked up a Schwinn Collegiate with a Sturmey Archer 3 speed, it seems as though second gear is gone, I wanted to put this wheel on my rat rod project. Is there a way it can be fixed, or should I just ditch the bike?

    Grip removal

    I've rolled those thin rubber modern grips off. Like the wrench/wood and hammer, accept I use my fingernails and pull. Sometimes they twist off.

    newer coaster brakes are they really less dependable or is it me?

    Who makes the coasters that have been on bikes, since the 90s? My friends bike I mentioned was a huffy delport or belport- something to that nature. One of it's spoke flanges came loose, and slid to the other side.

    newer coaster brakes are they really less dependable or is it me?

    Not sure what fork you have OP, Ive never seen your bike, if it has a hole for a front fender, you can stick a side or center pull brake there. The best non roadie sidepulls are bmx. Speaking of crappy coasters, I wish I could find the picture of my friends huffy when the wheel collapsed in a turn.
