Car Craft Magazine has a 6 page feature about Thomas Payne's 1930's service station (I posted about it a year ago, amazed at the treasure he found)

This entire story is on a really long thread on the Garage Journal, and it's one of the coolest finds ever. Car Craft's Jeff Smith has just published in in the May 2011 issue, and it's worth a look if you see the magazine.

http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/03/this-car-guys-dream-maybe-yours-too.html is the link to my post a year ago, and for the thread on the Garage Journal where Thomas adds new photos of things he's doing and restoring that were left in the garage, like floor jacks, the hydaulic car hoist (Rotary lift company), Sun distributor tester, etc, http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51567

Homemade tank inspired by the Transformers movie... but the tank treads caught my attention, they'd work well in woody or vegetative areas I think

Great source for Piaggio Ape / Vespa restoration

And look at this cool custom idea! Love the door, but I have no idea if it's an original Piaggio design or a great owner added idea.

This site http://losbirrasdeniguelas.foroespana.org/t227-restauracion-vespacar has links to other sites, sources of parts, etc...

Remember CB radios? They now are so high tech, they don't need the head unit, it's all in the handheld microphone

I found another photo of the 33 barrel bike

for two others that are better close ups:

Jalopnik changes format, traffic and comments take a nosedive, down 24% in 3 months according to one source, 75% in another

Above stat graph from http://karakullake.blogspot.com/2011/03/jalopniks-new-format-design.html but looking at Alexa, http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/jalopnik.com pageviews are down 25% in the last 3 months.

Someone named Matt, who doesn't have an email on his blogger profile (so responding directly is not possible) and doesn't indicate if he has any affiliation with Jalopnik, left the follwing comment on this post

As it should be clear, sitemeter was pulled from the sites because it wasn't functioning. This has been widely discussed and explained. A simple look at individual post pageviews on the site would indicate this is so. Thanks for your concern, though.

Ok, you refer to plural number of places sitemeter was pulled from, Why?

Further, what correlation is there that Alexa (2nd source, you know, responsible journalism standard practive) also has Jalopnik's pageviews down 25%, and I link to their site page about 3 inches about this sentance, not hard to see what they have to say.

Oh, I'm not concerned, I'm reporting this fact as news, not concern. My stats are steadily growing like mad, and I'm guessing it's for many reasons, and only one of them is that Jalopnik has lost viewers that like my simple, easy, with no advertising format instead. Huh.

Macintosh, Granny, and Red Delicious.

How ya like them apples?
