Re: Random Questions
Here is one: What ever happened to the guy in Perth who was building a very nice looking resto mod (think it was a FB but not sure) that must have been a FIFO worker? I don't recall reading how that ever finished up.

Your random question has been answered:Pinto-Pete wrote:Pffft,... I'd like to know, if you choked a smurf what colour he'd turn..
This question assumes that a smurf requires oxygen to survive, which is a valid assumption considering smurfs fear drowning as much as any normal air-breathing creature does. Furthermore, if smurfs require oxygen, then they must have some kind oxygen-transport molecule in their bloodstream. In vertebrates, this molecule is heme with an iron atom at its center and is what gives blood its red color. Since smurfs appear to be vertebrates, we can assume they also have heme in their blood. Now when a naked-skinned vertebrate is choked, namely humans, their faces turn red because surface capillaries in the skin dilate and blood rushes in. Assuming the same thing happens to smurfs, their faces would turn purple.
Believe it or not, this was answered on an episode of the Smurfs, in which one of them threatened to hold his breath until he turned red. But instead he turned a dark purple.
They are peaceful creatures, for one you should not choke them.
Choking smurfs is illegal.
Let's pretend that smurfs are little blue human beings. Human beings turn red at first when you choke them. Red+Blue = Purple.
I happen to know from experience, that if you choke a smurf (which you can do), they turn invisible. Its actually a very simple concept if you are intelligent enough to understand it, which, unfortunately, none of you are.
I once choked a smurf, but seen as they dont have any lungs it didnt do anything.
I'm sure if you choke a Smurf they would turn white. It Chokes the blue right outta em.

Re: Random Questions
And I thought I had some odd interests; nothing on Smurf biology though.
yep Lee, that is the one.

Re: Random Questions
Hello Rock, good to see you are still around. Car is looking very nice mate.

Re: Random Questions
Depending on the model, the upper steering bearing should be surrounded by a rubber cup if it's a normal looking ball bearing like this:

The early models had a different type of bearing like this:

The early ones did not have the bushing.
If the play is on the inside of the bearing and your column is collapsible, the shaft may need to come out further.
