    This will be the fourth time (gears)

    There has been a problem after about two years each time. First was 4:10's. Then twice with 4:30's. I don't race the car. I have the stock differential and axles. Different installers each time. Am I that unlucky? Or is there something else I should be looking at. Steve

    Structural Engineers: Would you buy this house?

    If you guys could give some opinions on this I would be really grateful. I am looking to buy my first house. This house is really a beautiful piece of work, but there are some cracks in the brick work. It is about 30 years old, and sits on the side of a wooded mountain here in Kentucky. I...

    Oil light

    I've been driving the cobra less lately. Recently the oil light has been coming on for about 60 seconds a minute or two after I start up the car. The dipstick shows full. It goes out after a little bit. What do you guys think?
