Back over at my second home... the hospital. Went to a doc appointment for my Wife and our doc said she needs to go get a CT of her appendix. Sooo... here I am.

Can't catch a damn break for anything.

She is back home... couldn't find anything wrong that is causing the pains.

Question for you guys... any of you ever use a battery desulfator? I'm thinking of grabbing one to try out. I have a couple weak batteries I'd like to try it on.

Anyone have recommendations for a good hammer/dolly set. Doesnt seem like I can find any in store and not really wanted to spend my kids college funds for a snap on set. Just trying to make highboy a prettier pig with some lipstick.

I can honestly say, I've never heard of Veyo, UT. Had to look it up. It's down close to MORR down in Hurricane (pronounced Her-uh-kun).



2100, this summer I bought the Maddox kit at HF. It's not a bad kit... the hammers are great, but the dolly's could be better. Not as hard as I'd like.

Sixty-ish bucks for this Eastwood set should be decent enough for what you want to do and still let you send the kids to school.

You know, you're right. Either HF is having a copy made, or they're both coming out if the same factory with a different-color paint job, and Eastwood is charging a premium.

EDIT: Looking more closely, they're not quite identical (the handles have a different design, and where the heads meet the handles is different), but the case and the internal layout appear to be the same.

Last night I ordered another set of mufflers for Frankie... Didn't even try the laminar style on it. I just love the sound of chambered mufflers too much to **** around with it. I bought the Flow Monsters, which are made by Holley.

After watching this video and hearing the Falcon drive by.... I went directly to Holley's page and ordered some. LOL.
