Review: Pt. 3 USC All Metal Sanding. apocalypsehighway 2013-10-20 | This is the final part of my review/over look of the USC All Metal metal body filler.I stated at the start, that I was never going back to standard Bondo and I mean it. this is very mailable and works/sands down right. Yes, you can block sand or contour with it.. do not over sand it, or push to much in one place when using a palm sander. it is metal repairing metal but, it will flatten out, quickly.If you do not put in enough of the hardener, you will have what others, ran into and that is this coming off, in chunks

Bosch Benvenuto Coffee System. apocalypsehighway 2016-10-19 | No more Keurig's for this guy.My last Keurig turned into a mystery machine. it would draw multiple cups worth of water from the container into the unit, however would only dispense, maybe a few sips worth of coffee. it became a joke at best. Sooo, the unveiling of my Bosch Benvenuto Coffee Machine was in order.Anything, from a regular cup, up to multiple one's ground & poured at once. also, a shot or two of Espresso is just a push of a button away, along with foam on demand. this unit, even has self cleaning with the ability of monitoring itself, plus it's own water filtration system. Upon notifying the user, when first turning it on to empty the system's tray & used grounds that collect in separate but convenient bin, and container, it is always at the ready and waiting to be disposed of so each and every cup is 100% of it's maximum flavor.Downside to this unit. it only holds, and has the ability to dispense 5 cups at a time.

She is an award winner, first time I took it out to a show and yes, the trophy will go with the vehicle if you wish.This video shows, she runs and drives nicely.Serious offers message me here or lonewolf114@hotmail.com
1930 Ford Model A Crank Start apocalypsehighway 2015-08-23 | I've told people, how easy my ol girl here is to crank start & has been ever since I unsiezed the motor back in 2012 with the very same crank.I was doing this, very same demonstration at show's for people for the last of the 2012 season, then stopped because well, she does have electric start. Over the last few years a lot thought I was embellishing things, when I would talk about how easy she would crank over because of what they have heard. or seen in others videos of how some A's can be somewhat temperamental. The car had been run earlier today (8/23/2015) however was sitting for almost 4 and a half hours at this point, so no, I did not use the choke as sometimes needed if sitting overnight then starting from the inside. all I did here, was make sure the gas was on, turned the key and voila!P.S For one's who do not know, let me stress NEVER wrap your thumb around the handle when starting. if you are in the wrong position and the handle kicks back due to compression, you can and will break bones.

Harbor Freight 110lb Blaster Revisited. apocalypsehighway 2013-11-17 | After figuring out how to adjust the air/soda controls on the blaster for what seems to be the best performance. I am now stripping a patch about an inch wide, per pass on this 73 Barracuda as seen in this video as well as now keeping the gun almost 6 to 7" away from the car instead of being almost on top of the fender/quarter as I was in the first video..

Review: Pt.2 USC All Metal Mixing/Application apocalypsehighway 2013-10-20 | Here I show you, the easy mix and application of USC All Metal Body Filler..This is the best for repairing/covering metal work/welding or other such blemishes that Bondo just is not good for.Remember.. this is metal, repairing metal.Mixing tips: 12 to 15 drops *use a thumbtack or safety pin to make the hole* and I do mean drops of the catalyst into/onto the potato sized pile of All Metal is all that is needed. IF you use too, little it will flake off or fall in chunks off the applied area during it's sanding (Pt.3 Pt.3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbKFr9lMFTk) process.
Review: Pt.1 All Metal (Metal Body Filler) apocalypsehighway 2013-10-19 | After using a body hammer and a dolly to take out the dent in the front fender of the 53 I decided to check out this product. and I must say, I will never go back to standard Bondo Body Filler again for cheese coats or work.All Metal spreads easier, and more uniformly. covering a larger area, with less product in the end. and that saves money, does it not?I have a 2nd video being loaded (Pt.2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbtvKdeR_Po) that shows the preparation and mixing process of this material. and it is hands down, by far better then working the old fashion way.also the wrap up/sanding (Pt.3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbKFr9lMFTk) of this is a lot less evasive then days of old, using Bondo.
Virtual Ride 1930 Ford Model A 5 Window Coupe. apocalypsehighway 2013-09-25 | Took my son out for a ride in my 1930 Model A Ford 5 Window Coupe.I recently resurrected this car from a barn in Massachusetts and when it was first brought home. the motor was seized, so two bottles of Marvel Mystery Oil, 5 days and a hand crank later, it was free.After originally getting the motor to start, I had to replace the distributor cap, rotor, points, distributor cam, wires, coil *the wax inside heated up and melted out all over the motor* and coil wire, spark plugs, the gear oil, and motor oil, as well as go over the entire car with liquid wrench to loosen up the many many rusted pieces. replaced two of the tires. however, other then that, everything is 100% original.Luckily for me, the original owner when putting the car in the barn back in the 60's drained out all the fluids and put it up on blocks. the bad side was leaks in the barns roof came down on both sides of the car and rotten out the original running boards, however I was able to hunt down a set from California that are in amazing shape.
1000lb Harbor Freight Hydraulic Lift. apocalypsehighway 2013-09-06 | I went to Harbor Freight and picked up the 1,000 LB. Capacity Hydraulic Motorcycle Lift $429.99 As you can see here, it will work great for anything that is up to 1,000lbs and lifts it effortlessly.Do yourself a favor, when you have something on here, like my cart (mine not in view simply for video) put a counter balance of some kind, on or near the end where the straps are hooked to the plate. this will prevent the lift from tipping/pitching to the back.
1930 A (Ford 5 Window) Coupe apocalypsehighway 2013-08-20 | This Coupe has been on my list of desirable cars, ever since I was a child. Well one day, I was looking thru Craigslist and refreshed the page, and this ad, for the car showed up. I refreshed the page, one more time to make sure I wasn't seeing things, and on the page was the 83 year old car with a price attached that I would have gladly paid. however, I had to see if I could get it a little lower "you know you would" so, I saw a photo and called the man back and gave him my price. he countered. I hit him with one more price, and that sealed the deal..The car had been sitting in a barn since 1961 and was, for the most part out of the direct elements. some water was coming down on the driver's side, however it has not done any irreparable damage. so, soon enough I will hit it with some scotch brite and clear coat it and have her on the road with the original motor for a bit. then I will be replacing that with a Flathead V-8 that will be tweaked a little, of course lol
Stingerz LED Turn Signals apocalypsehighway 2013-08-10 | Mounted the Stingers direct to my Harley's forks and connected the Badlands Box to counteract the resistance issue and now, I have turn signals again..By the way.. You will want to go get yourself a tube of Loctite Super Glue and apply to the backside and top edge of LED's if you want to mount in the same position I did. The lights out of the package, want to pull off of the tube, when using only the sticky tape attached to the Stingerz.I added the glue, held for 2 minutes, maybe, and now. they are not going anywhere.
Moving The 64 Valiant. apocalypsehighway 2013-07-08 | This was taken the day I rolled the car out of my barn for the first time in years.. the hood is open, only because I just hooked the battery up and was only planning on moving as far as I did..The underside and inside of the car as in just as good a shape as what you are looking at.
Testing Chrome in a can.. apocalypsehighway 2013-04-15 | After having quite a few of you write and ask me if I've ever used or tested the "chrome" in a can type sprays. I finally listened "sorry been busy" LOL however, here are my results and even examples of two of the more favorable products in this category.. Check them out and leave comments if you wish and don't forget to subscribe for further updates and tests on other things and products as I do/use them..Update: Dupli-color's chrome has a huge tendency to clog after it's use. even when following the directions and turning the can upside down and "clearing" it does not help. I've had two can's become unusable.hence a total waste of money. do not bother..

Harbor Freight 45 Watt Solar Kit Testing Pt.5 apocalypsehighway 2012-11-21 | 1 week of continuous use of the Harbor Freight 45 watt Solar Kit (1 kit = 3 panels) plus I've installed the Peak 3000 Watt Power Inverter. today the kit was generating 18.6 volts direct from the panels. under load to the battery's it was maintaining a 14.5 volt charge thru the array.So my best suggestion to anyone looking at purchasing this kit. No.1 make sure to utilize an additional inline fuse (don't want to burn out your controller or inverter) and always keep a small load running 24/7 to curtail unwanted electrical spikes that can occur when things sit at an idle as is common with solar from what I've read by others utilizing solar.Coming up I'll be cancelling my electric service to the barn, dropping $257+ a month saving me a total in 1 year of = $3.084+Cost Break-Down..-----$160 for the kit (on sale)$35.00 for the 2 year insurance$75.00 per battery (x2)$9.95 each 4 gauge battery cable (x6)-----$405.00Questions/comments/suggestions please feel free to leave them and I'll try my best to answer.

Harbor Freight 45 watt Solar Panel Kit Pt.2 apocalypsehighway 2012-11-11 | Pt.1. Was showing the Kit's Light's running at night (Two 5watt 12volt DC bulbs lighting up an otherwise pitch black barn): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zgl3Q9HAEuUPt.2 Is to show you just how little is involved in setting up and utilizing this kit right out of the box in the daytime..Pt.3 Is showing the DC to AC power inverter being hooked up & put in line with the array: http://youtu.be/T1cbDDOD3hYP.S: Just to clarify the battery drain problem I talk about in here, it's not a drain as in taking power from the battery. it's more from battery's simply sitting idle with not even a trickle charge on them will simply dissipate in voltage the longer it's stored. the older battery's had more the "draw" issue then anything made today.Once the battery's are at full capacity I will walk you thru the connecting of the power inverters into the system and we will start running AC power. then as I bump up the kit just slightly over the upcoming months you will see a change over to the barn being 100% powered from Harbor Freight's inexpensive and available to all, solar power kit's. and we are talking, a lot of tools, multiple rooms, a shallow well water pump, security system and more, so stay tuned by subscribing to the channel and seeing what you can do with a little time, effort and minimal amount of money..
Harbor Freight 45 Watt Solar Kit Testing Pt.1 apocalypsehighway 2012-11-11 | Part 2. Walk thru contents of kit shot in daytime 11/11/12: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mn1QI1r0k8&feature=youtu.beToday 11/10/12 I picked up the 1st of 2 HF 45 watt Solar Panel kits that I am going to put to use here at the compound to power the barn. Now, I know a lot of you are thinking that at only 45 watts it's not really going to be any good for things other then cellphones, laptop's etc.. However I'm going to walk you thru some things that can be run off of your power inverter below *purchased separately* hooked up to the battery array that your also going to purchase separately from the panel system & hook up off of the controller that comes with the kit using the supplied wires.This clip is showing the two 5 watt lights that come with the kit, on and running for 4 hours at this point off of the battery array and yet, they have only dropped the voltage on the meter by 1. meaning it was registering 12.2 volts at 6pm and four hours later was displaying 12.1 volts as clearly seen here.Video 3 we will do the power inverter that will allow you to run AC powered items and appliances from your solar kit.Leave questions/comments/complaints (I'm figuring this out right along with you) so, if you see me doing something that you might find being done a different way will garner better results then shoot me off a message or comment explaining things and we will go from there.so subscribe and keep an eye out for the continuing solar panel tests in upcoming video's..
