All About Damaged Auto Auctions
by: Perry Gibson
If you are a person who is very budget-conscious buyer who's looking for a car and getting a brand new or even a quality second-hand one is not your thing, then you can go for a damaged car auction. The same thing goes for individuals who like the challenge of making diamonds out of dirt.
Damaged cars are probably the lowest-priced automobiles out there in the markets today. A brand new car basically loses a little less than a quarter of its value during the first time it is driven out in the street after the purchase, a damaged car has lost most of its market-value after years of torture or after a certain unfortunate incident. However, value is relative to the things that are done to the damaged car. Value can be restored eventually.
Damaged cars should be seen on the level of their "potential" restored value. Of course, no one will ever re-buy a damaged car if he has no intention of making it better for some future purpose. Auctions are great ways of getting one's hands on damaged cars. These events are participated upon by different individuals who have different intentions.
Some intend to reconstruct the cars to use them eventually for transportation. Some intend to learn how to make repairs and modifications and so they use these cars as experiments. But whatever the motivation, damaged cars are still popular to the masses.
What are some things that people need to know about damaged car auctions? Damaged car auctions are comparable to the regular car auctions. Here are some basic things that people who are participating in damaged car auctions should take into mind:
1) Know why you would want to have a damaged car It is all a matter of purpose. People go to a regular car auction to be able to find great quality cars at great bargains. In a damaged car auction, people don't go to find great quality cars but they look for potentially restorable cars. If you are buying a damaged car to restore it and use it as a mode of transportation in the future, you should give it good thinking.
2) Know your costs Get the list of damaged cars that are being auctioned. From the list, choose the model that you would want to get your hands into. Do a little research and find more information about the said model, especially with regards to its current market price. Setting prices that you are willing to pay for a damaged car can be a little bit tricky, so our suggestion is that you make a table, or a matrix where in you put in different conditions and different prices that go along with such conditions.
For example, "damaged hood" and "Damaged tail lights" should given values and these should be subtracted to the price that you are willing to pay for the car.
3) Compare your prices The main point in getting a damaged car is to get a restorable car and hopefully, the whole cost of acquiring the car and the costs of restoring it into a tolerable condition. If you are better off getting a quality second-hand vehicle than getting a damaged car and restoring it to its glory, then do so.
Take note that some of the spare parts for such damaged cars can be hard to find. Also, there are some conditions that can't simply be repaired and a whole overhaul is needed.
4) Thorough inspection is a must Before bidding for a certain car of your choice, make sure that you inspect the vehicle thoroughly. Get to the venue early and start searching for the car and inspect it. Buyers should especially be wary about flood-damaged cars.
Buying flood-damaged cars can have nasty repercussions during later stages because some of the damages that flood inflicts into cars cannot be easily seen and are permanent.
5) Secure all the papers Don't forget to secure all the papers if you were successful in buying a damaged car. A damaged car is still a car and the papers should be intact for future purposes.
Damaged cars connotes negative thoughts and impressions, however, it's all about mindsets. One should look at them in terms of their potential and how this potential can be actualized.
Great buys are never easy to have, but with the right mindset and strategy, one can make diamonds out of dirt through restoring damaged cars.

Welding For Dummies
Oxy Acetylene Welding For Dummies
by: Francis Haike
Oxy Acetylene Welding and Cutting Materials
Oxy-acetylene welding is an autogenous welding process, in which two parts of the same or different metals are joined by causing the edges to melt and unite while molten without the aid of hammering or compression. When cool, the parts will form one whole piece of metal.
The oxy-acetylene flame is made by mixing oxygen and acetylene gases in a special welding torch or blowpipe, producing, when burned, a heat of 6,300 degrees, which is more than twice the melting temperature of the most common metals. This flame, while being of intense heat, is of very small size.
Oxy Acetylene Cutting
The process of cutting metals with the oxy-acetylene flame produced from oxygen and acetylene depends on the fact that a jet of oxygen directed upon hot metal causes the metal itself to burn away with great rapidity, resulting in a narrow slot through the section cut. The action is so fast that metal is not injured on either side of the cut.
Carbon Removal Process
This process depends on the fact that carbon will burn and almost completely vanish if the action is assisted with a supply of pure oxygen gas. After the combustion is started with any convenient flame, it continues as long as carbon remains in the path of the jet of oxygen.
Materials
For the performance of the above operations we require the two gases, oxygen and acetylene, to produce the flames; rods of metal which may be added to the joints while molten in order to give the weld sufficient strength and proper form, and various chemical powders, called fluxes, which assist in the flow of metal and in doing away with many of the impurities and other objectionable features.

Muscle Cars and Hot Rods
If you are of the 50's 60's or 70's era generation you know that hot rods and muscle cars dominated the average male gender, and yes, even the females couldn't help but turn their heads when a slick vintage car drove by. The times have changed but the desire to see those vintage cars has not. Those who have preserved those classic cars are as appreciated as the disc-jockeys today, that spin the classic tunes of yesteryear.
Hot Rods and Muscle Cars are forever etched into our being as the ultimate personal statements that we proudly display to one and all who see them at car shows or if you should see one pass by on the highway. Hot Rods and Muscle Cars say a lot about what makes America the proud nation we are. To delve into the psychic just a bit, hot rods have always been notorious for rebellion and attention getting tools for whatever the teenage group of the times was encountering. Whether it was rebelling against their parents, or rebelling against the establishment, hot rods and muscle cars are and always will be a nostalgic part of our culture.
Hot Rods and Muscle Cars come in every imaginable shape condition and modification. The amount of customization done to a hot rod is the extension of the builder's imagination and frustration of his views on conventional styling. This in itself is not a bad thing. One can draw from one perspective as a new dimension on life and style in the hallowed United States. A sense of pride in country cannot be dismissed by the mere existence of hot rods and muscle cars.
To catch a glimpse of the ever-popular hot rods and muscle cars one merely needs to ask around their local auto repair shop for any upcoming car shows. The auto mechanics are forever mindful of those elusive hot rods and muscle cars from years gone by. The near forgotten auto mechanics or shade-tree mechanics we choose to refer to them, have all but waned away due to the computer diagnostic age. A mechanic now-a-days must be equipped with all the latest in electrical diagnostic equipment to compete with the dealerships to eek out a living. But fear not, there are still those die hard mechanics who love nothing more than to get there hands on a classic hot rod or muscle car just to rekindle the rumble of those quadra-jets or three duce's in a slick bodied car from days gone by.
We found one gentleman that has taken his love of the classic t-bucket roadsters and set up his garage to produce new roadsters from yesteryear designs. He can build one from his laser sighted frame jig, all the way to completion right from his own shop. Every detail is hand crafted so he knows what went into making the finished roadster. He will gladly build you a custom made roadster for a very reasonable price. It's his way of keeping the tradition and styling alive for generations that missed the golden years of hot rods and muscle cars.

Smile For Ya
Here's a lil story for ya:
I'm not feeling quite right so I decide to have the Doc check me out. Well, I go to the Doc and I tell him about feeling a little off. He asks me to describe my day. I tell him I get up around 6 am, clean up, grab some breakfast (cereal, etc) and sit at my desk and check to see how the market is doing. Then at 8:15am I go to the bathroom and have a BM. Then lunch around 2pm and dinner at 9pm.
The Doc decides to a scan. He then tells me I have 3 worms!!! That he recommends that I have surgery in 2 days!!!
In the meantime: The 3 worms inside me hear the Doc say he is going to do surgery to find them! One worm says, "I'm going to hide behind the heart!". The other worm says, "I'm going to hide behind the liver". They ask the last worm where he is going to hide? The 3rd worm says, "Forget that! I'm taking the 8:15 out of here in the morning!"
Bada Bing!

336 MPH Senior
The 336 MPH Senior
I would like to introduce you to Skip Hedrich; he is an engineer, race car designer, builder and driver; and although he is 71 years old, he would rather be recognized for his accomplishment rather than his age. His latest project is the ‘American Eagle’, a streamliner designed to go 450 mph and become the fastest piston engine driven car in the world. He started the ‘American Eagle’ project in 1996 and ran the inaugural race in 2001. Since then he has run the car faster each year. In 2004, he ran the car an average speed of 332 mph on his qualifying run and this exceeded the gas record by 10 mph and with a terminal speed of 335 mph. On his final run he experienced some drive train problems and had to abort the run and was not able to obtain the gas record. In 2005 both of the Bonneville races were weathered out. This year, 2006, he achieved the ‘C class’ gas record with a two way average speed over 323 mph and a terminal speed of 336 mph. This was only a milestone on his way to achieving other goals.
At this point in time we are building a ‘B class engine, which is a 340 cubic inch small block Chevy that should produce 840 hp. This will enable us to reach a 350 mph plus plateau.
This winter he is schedule to make some visits at Children’s Hospital and present the children with a presentation and some framed photos as gifts. Skip also being displaying his Streamliner at the 16th Annual San Diego Auto Swap’s Toys For Tots Show & Swap being held from
Skip Hedrich’s streamliner project was born in June of 1996. He predicted he would be ready to race by September of 99’ for the SCTA World Finals at the
At this point everything started falling into place. His next goal was to be ready to race at the ‘2000 SCTA World Finals’ at Bonneville, but again was delayed due to parts not arriving on time. Moving on, the team set their sights on being ready to race at the SCTA World Finals in 2001 at Bonneville.
In the original article by Gayle Kott in the May 1997 issue of the Bonneville Racing News, Skip Hedrich predicted that his 23 foot streamliner would be ready for the USFRA September 1997 World of Speed. Let’s review the former article to catch us all up to date. Skip got his first taste of competitive racing at the ripe old age of eight. He wanted to beat his friend Toad, who had a Powell motor scooter. Skip’s 1 1\2 horse Briggs and Stratton powered car was unable to beat him as they raced up and down the streets of
At the age of 16 he had already built his own street roadster which was a 29A on 32 rails to race at Bonneville, but because of finances he was unable to finish building the engine, so he joined Larry Burford and raced his Deuce Coupe. In 1953 he attended an El Mirage meet with his brother’s sprint car and was fairly competitive in the class. Much of Skips racing efforts during his twenties and thirties involved running midgets, sprint cars and eventually Indy Champ cars with USAC. In December of 1965, just before he was ready to leave for Indy to finish building the Indy car for Federal Engineering, (Skip’s ride for the 1966 season), he had a motorcycle accident badly breaking his knee and unfortunately shattering his dream. He tried to race after the accident, but his knee would swell and cause too much pain. His career in the oval track was over.
It wasn’t until 25 years later that the racing bug hit Skip again when he started boat racing. “The exhilarating feel of speed and acceleration made me realize what I had been missing for the past 25 years.” He knew competitive racing was in his blood and he loves it. “It’s the real me, I thrive on it.” he says.
It wasn’t long before Skip was back on the salt, this time running the Burkdohl streamliner. The first season he was .8 MPH short for a 214+ MPH record. The second season he was .2 MPH short. Shortly thereafter he decided to use his considerable knowledge in race car designing and building experience which he learned as he worked for various race car builders in his twenties and thirties, to build his own streamliner.
When my husband, Barry, and I visited Skip and his wife, Willie, (short for Wilhelmina), at their home in Vista, California, Skip took a break from his fervent work in progress to give us a shakedown course on building his dream car. The streamliner looked almost done from outside appearances, but once we started the interview, the body came off the chassis and soon understood the enormous amount of work there was left to do. As Skip put it, “It’s down to every minute of every day.” His faithful crews were working all possible hours they could to help pull it all together to reach their goal for getting the steam liner to El Mirage to do some test runs and then off to World of Speed 2000. At the time of our visit, this only left about a month.
They were promised drive train parts that didn’t arrive in time, which caused them to miss the World of Speed. To top that off, the crew was putting the final touches on the streamliner when they received a call informing them that the World Finals were canceled. Disappointment set in but didn’t keep the team from keeping the project moving forward to meet the new goal, to be ready to run at El Mirage and all Bonneville events for 2001.
Skip has built many race cars but this is the first time he built the body first, then the chassis to fit perfectly inside the body. “It’s a lot more difficult to build a streamliner this way and not the norm,” says Skip, “but then, I guess, I’m not normal. Willie will vouch for that!”
When Skip decided to start his streamliner project, he spoke to Don Vesco, Al Teague, Noland and Rick White, Terry Nish and others, telling them his plans and looking for any suggestions they might have to offer. Skip was extremely grateful for their helpful advice. That reminded him of the open, friendly attitude he used to enjoy at Indy 25 years ago and still finds in land speed racing today.
Skip Consulted with Lynn Yakel for the aerodynamic design of the streamliner.
The next step was to develop the cross sectional shapes. This was extremely time consuming. The object was to make the frontal area as small as possible and still encompass the wheels, engine, roll cage, and exhaust system then place the controls in a location where the driver can operate them and still be able to see out of the streamliner to drive it down the course. Skip used the same formula to develop the top part of the upper body, which encompasses the roll cage, engine hatch then blends into the tail.
Skip remembers going to Don Vesco’s and setting in his streamliner, taking measurements, scooting up and down finding the best position through measuring at his eye level relative to the cowling. Don was extremely helpful with his vast knowledge of building vehicles to race at Bonneville and years of driving and riding experience and to Skip’s fortune has shared it with him. “He is truly my pal,” says Skip.
Now that the split line configuration had been developed mathematically and placed on a drawing, it was time to develop it to full size on a wood table with a steel frame and legs with adjusting pads. The table was leveled with in .020 of an inch; it took about a day and a half to achieve this accuracy.
While Skip was having some CNC machining done by Phil Caricof, Skip mentioned that he was about to develop the split line shape to full scale. Phil offered a phone number of a friend of his, Bob Chubb that had been the Chief Lofter for Douglas Aircraft for the past 30 years. Skip contacted Bob and explained his situation. Bob was enthralled with the project. Skip met with him leaving him a drawing. Bob developed the dimensions to a full scale drawing on Mylar. When he was finished he brought the Mylar to Skips Shop in three pieces which made it easier to transport. They proceeded to transfer the Mylar drawing to the wood table. After all the engineering time put forth this was the first time you could see the actual tear-drop shape of the split line that is 23’ long and 36” at the widest point. This was a glorious moment. Skip feels that he owes Bob a tremendous amount of gratitude.
At this point Skip drove to the beach where he drew most of the preliminary designs and sketches. There’s something about the tranquility of the waves and the aroma of the sea breeze that set his mind free to concentrate. This time however, he made the trip to make a major decision. It was evident that the streamliner would not be finished in 2 ½ years if he continued boat racing. It was a tough decision because of his love for that type of racing, but he couldn’t do both. He decided that the boat would be put to rest in the boat barn until he raced the streamliner.
The saga continues....

I first used it as a site to promote my San Diego Auto Swap (www.SanDiegoAutoSwap.com) Then a buddy asked if he could advertise his Street Rods on The CARS Net. That was the first of hundreds and hundreds of ads for Classic Cars, Motorcycles, Boats, Trailers and Trucks,
Now after over 10 years The CARS Net is NOW FREE! My goal is to make The CARS Net the place on the Net to Buy and Sell all the Classics and Special vehicles we all love. Now that its FREE, you won't have to have to think twice about lisiting your vehicles, and parts.
I also set up a CARS Net Forum so you will have a place to share ideas, ask questions and just generally interact with other enthusiasts from all over the world.
Additionally, I built a CARS Net Blog where I can speak my mind and you can comment on my ramblings.
Use The CARS Net as your online tool to assist you with your Classic Vehicles. Let people know what you have For Sale, or Find that Deal you've been looking for. Use the Forum to find answers to your questions or to just express yourself. Its there for you and your use of it will make it better for you and everyone else who visits it.
Thanks for stopping by The CARS Net. If you have any suggestions or questions, please leave them on the Forum. I check it often. Keep The Shiny Side Up & I'll See Ya On The Street !

Dec 16 Event To Be SE Lot!
Hi Gear Heads,
The survey we did of which Qualcomm Lot was preferred by you came back that the SW lot was the most popular. I informed the Stadium that we would prefer the SW lot for our events. Today I was informed that the SW lot has already been booked by the Porsche Club for Dec 16! So it will be the old SE lot for our Dec 16 Toys Fpr Tots event.
The Stadium also informed me that it looks like we can do an event on Sunday, January 28, 2007. So write that date down. I asked the Stadium for Memorial Day, Monday and Labor Day, Monday 2007 also. They will have to get back to me in November on those dates. They have to wait for the Used Car/RV people to pick their dates.
Please fell free to leave comments you might have.
See Ya There!
