New Stuff -- April 2005 | ||

New things on the site you just might have missed |

I
know it may be hard to squash the feeling of winter, but peas remember spring
is soon to turnip. Lettuce us prepare for warmer weather so that when when
the thyme comes, we may be ready..
Well, as many of you have noticed the BIG news for April is the brand-spanking new Forums! We'll still be doing a bit of a shakedown to get it where we want it. You see some neat stuff on YOUR end but you should see this side of the highway ... aaaaaaahhhh ... dead brain cells everywhere. This program is gonna make it better; we just have a serious learning mountain to climb -- sortta like winning the Iditarod with a team of chihuahuas!
And we just gotta say, this fancy new forum would not have been possible without the cash donations made by these fine folks:
| George Mills | David Frances | Fred "Truckernix" Nixon | Timothy Sheridan | Steve Goldfarb |
| Kip | James Jamison | Joe McNeel | James Karras | Stuart "Sublime" Watts |
| Dave Kissick | Bruce Kinsey | Charlie "Cletis" Hardin | Andrew Houck | Ronald Steltz |
| Joy Pascarella | Fred "Joker" Scott | Jerry Acheson | David "Dust N Splinterz" Knokey | Barry Weeks |
So, with those ever frightening words, "The check's in the mail," Paul Schmehl spent a very long night installing the new software. Good timing. This software had just come out and there weren't going to be any more upgrades to the old. A very heartfelt thanks to all -- You have made it beneficial for all!
Help keep this site going and growing!
With all that going on ... here's a little something for you (we still have some Tech Tips in the works). Mike Boteler (a good friend and neighbor from the local ATHS Baltimore-Washington Chapter -- host of the 2006 ATHS National Show!!! -- that has taken in the Stovebolt Headquarters) has sent in the next batch of years for the Series tip. Mike has some great other tech tips on his site. Cletis has connected us with a GMC source, and the one we did get done from Alan Horvath .. well, you just gotta check out Alan's site. He's got lots in there already -- he posts a photo-tutorial on every project, so there'll always be more. Would you believe this is his "first experience with an old vehicle." And he's got good music!

Road Rage, road rash, road fever ... Road Kill -- Ah, the detrius flung to the shoulder of this electronic autobahn. Here's a few opinions, all road related (mostly ...) to stimulate critical thinking, improve our driving habits or just waste a little time idling our brains.
