  • Markings of paragraph madness!

    Hello, I am bursting with rage. I have today changed a stretch limousine from Munich to a neighbouring district with 3 letters. Up to the registration plate no problem either. Because the registration office was able to present me new regulations, which state that there is NO issue of motorcycle registration marks for cars anymore! Except only oldtimers and vehicles, which are already registered in the district. Alternative? A full size number plate with self-illuminating sign at the back. t: 150EUR. Apart from the fact that this looks totally shitty, when my license plate holder is empty, and for this the bumper with a license plate is posteriert, I get a decent attachment (adaptation to the bumper) cost of a total of almost 600EUR! I believe myself place immediately what! I should now attach this stupid full size license plate to the round bumper of a TownCar and put power supply from the lid down. That can’t be! Of course, the 355mm license plates were worn. The very short license plates were not available after the vehicle was measured and the license plate holder is probably 2cm too narrow. Does anyone have an idea how to proceed? The vehicle has to drive orders on weekends, and I certainly can’t find a workshop today that will build this self-lit shit properly on me…

  • Passenger door does not open ??? Cadillac STS 05

    Halli Hello, I have been driving a Cadillac STS Bj. 2005 (4,6 L V8) for some time now and have the problem that the passenger door is no longer open from the outside. Unfortunately there is no lock on this side, so that I can now only make the doors mechanically from the inside on. Do I hear the door handle, how the actuator unlocks the rear door, but nothing happens at the front. Can anyone give me a hint what is going on and what could be broken? Was today i n the workshop around the corner (not brand specific) but they don’t dare. The car is too special. But think about this problem you can not only have with a Cadillac!!! Many thanks already for your help :-)) LG

  • Dodge Charger 1973 Decode engine identifier

    On the Internet there is a Dodge Charger. I wanted to compare in the first step whether the chassis number and engine number match each other. I just don’t want to decipher the engine number. Can someone help me and break it down? I think it’s on the picture: 8698830-440-8 Is this an engine number at all?

I’ve been informed many times about Amis, but I’m still a newcomer. MfG Carl

  • I’m new and have so many questions?

    Hello together! Have so many frigs and I hope you can help me. And I’m not laughing am a woman and ask many stupid questions 🙂 So, I fell in love with the Chevy Blazer K5. At the best vintage 70 – 80. Would then like to have a gas insert installed later. Have now seen in Germany that the things would be really super expensive to go away and then screw some more. Now I have thought about impotting one. What do I have to pay attention to when buying? Can I use the Internet I’ve already seen a few of them where you can do it all completely. Are they called different or also K5. Still a very stupid question …. If of course I want to have one that is quite high. Can I still pull my horse trailer with it. But then the AK doesn’t have to be higher or not? Of course I have a friend who likes to screw and also my Bla many questions and I hope you can help me. I am already so crazy about the car that I would like to realize this room from the blazer from the USA? Dear greeting Kirsten

  • Kit Car… Import / Cost / Company Discontinuation…

    Hello! Unfortunately I did not find a suitable forum, so I try here I might want to buy a kit car… The British sports car Ultima GTR, that is, Ultima Can-Am with the LS-7 engine with 650 hp from Amerspeed. Auto: http://www.ultimasports.co.uk/gtr/ or as Can Am: http://www.ultimasports.co.uk/canam/ Motor: http://www.amerspeed.com/scgi-bin/showultimaengines.cgi I would like to ask a few questions, in this forum I am sure who has a car i So apart from the kit price and the price for the engine (due to low dollar and pound price is the opportunity cheap), then at least shipping comes on top, and as far as I got with the German VAT? or the VAT applicable in the country where you import? I guess from the German VAT (i.e. 19%). Does it even matter more? Any import costs / fees or something? And then I would be interested in something. The advantages are clear: I would have been able to save the entire VAT, and also to deduct operating costs / fuel etc., and would have had the costs as an expenditure in the company, so I do not have to pay out the money privately and tax it to buy the car. Sure, 1% new car regulation would then apply, but that would also be ok. Does anyone have tips for me? I would of course rather buy the car via the GmbH than pr Implications

  • K5 Blazer, where to grease?

    Hello, I’ve done a new grease press and want to grease my blazer. Where anywhere do I have to look for lubricating nipples? A friend also advised me to break the blow springs apart with a chisel and also grease, then the leaf springs are quieter. Is that okay? Merci, XXL Greetings, Vaxe…

  • Recommendation Exhaustpot: Which one?/Where to buy?

    Hello people I need your help regarding an exhaust pot for my 99`Tahoe! Short history: I built a very simple (it was really a mistake) new exhaust pot under it. After the exhaust pot still has to have an arc over the axle and then a piece until the end of the vehicle. When I installed the pot, I then drove around for a while only so that the entire exhaust pipe (exhaust pipe) stopped exactly above the axle. There was also the sound still OK! I don’t want it too loud and disturbing, but pleasantly roaring. But since I can’t drive around so much time, I still had to extend the exhaust pipe until the end of the Tahoe. The problem that I have now is that almost the whole sound has disappeared!!! It almost sounds like I didn’t even have a new pot built in, but left everything original? That’s very annoying! Question: Since I’ve made a very simple universal pot under it, I could help without a problem to change this with a good exhaust pipe!!!

  • It’s supposed to be a Chevy Pick Up! K30 or Blazer!?

    Good day, everyone! I’m looking for a Chevy Pick Up and have found a few questions I didn’t answer at the search of the old threads. I hope I didn’t just miss out on it, so I also wanted to turn to your motor community. I dream of a V8 diesel Pick Up like the Blazer or the K30 with the 6.2 machine from the 80s. Since I have no experience in the area of US cars, forgive me any Patzer and I ask for clarification correction. The car should be used both as a truck in the home gardening business, as well as for the small car to scare away and cruise at the weekend. Is there the Blazer with a separated cabin and loading area? Is the loading area of the K30 larger than that of the Blazer?! Can anyone tell me the exact size of both? The loading area should be used both open and with roof. Is there the K30 with a hardtop? Are all hardtops of the Blazer models removable? Can you find in the area of 4000-8000 meter no need of a car? No thank you for having a good drink.

  • “l 82”

    Question: Did I call “L82” or not??? Have looked today. The writings are fortunately really fixed with a “bolt” in the moror hood (Hab heuete das Flies abgeschlagt), and not snapped afterwards. Unfortunately I can’t post a photo here that shows this strange plastic part above the cooler. First I thought it was mounted afterwards. When I looked at the bonnet cover, I noticed that it was specially cut out for it. (Boetti and Jürgen2 know which plastic part I mean. Would like to post it here if it was easy!) Funnyly, the redwashed front of the engine goes off (where else you would suspect the water pump at a German engine) and it appeared a blue protective varnish. (Ford I would almost say. I hope I’m wrong!”!!!!!!!!!!!)
