Blast from the past.

Post by dragenwagen »

Good to see the forums still around. It has been a very long time since I have been on. if you see a link to heater channel repair, yeah... it doesn't exist anymore. at one time, if you searched for heater channel repair, my site was the #1 on Google for a long time. but that was when the internet was still young, before Facebook. we did forums and usenet. LOL! ah the good old days!

I am doing good and the '66 has been hibernating in the garage for the last 18 years. It still has 0 miles on the 0 mile Mexican case I built back in 2006.

I haven't logged in for years and was pleasantly surprised to see my sign-on still works. Unfortunately my type 181 is long gone but I still have a '65 vert.

Excellent job, will be reading through the heater channel repair project. I like to see these "web 1.0" sites, to me these are the best ones.

Welcome back!

I still havent figured out the appeal of not being able to use paragraphs or bullet points to separate ideas on thefacething.
The only thing it has over "bbs" style is ease of posting pictures which was always an issue on STF, that and the pics getting lost on software upgrades.

For technical discussions or documentation facebook is the worst.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.
