sometimes, that is the best type of funnel for the job. Especially for really dirty stuff that you don't want to have to clean up after. I always keep a few empty gallon jugs from washer fluid, etc. Mostly to cut and use as funnels. Not something I need often, but they sure do come in handy on those rare occasions that I need one.

The problem with buying a funnel is that you then have to remember where you left it. search for 10 minutes give up and cut open a jug use it and turn around and see the funnel you were searching for

I've been hooked every since and they have kept entertained while I have been overseas being home sick..... Inspired me to buy farm find 1993 Silverado pickup from auction that needed to be brought back around... My youngest daughter now daily drives it.... I credit VGG for inspiring me to take a chance and go save an old ride.... Thank you, Derek.... Just keep being awesome

I consider Imperials overlooked classics! All were built in limited numbers as they were expensive cars in their day. I grew up in the '60's. The free standing headlights were unique and a nod to the earlier Imperials designs of the '30's. Thanks Derick for spotlighting a late model classic car and bringing it back to life. Your efforts are appreciated!

I can see why it grew on you, Derek. Every bit of work you did to it, the car responded with a positive vibe like it was just saying "Bring it on! Lemme show you what I can be!"....and boy doesn't she look great! Beautiful colour - and those pinstripes just make it something special. I'd be proud to be out and about in something like that. Can it be improved? Sure - but she looks a million dollars from 10 feet now and when you're cruising along, that's all that matters. Great example of what can be done to bring a car around with a bit of physical effort, some time and - crucially - with little money. Awesome job, mate! All the best from here in New Zealand.

It's great to see Derek work on something that I was in the passenger seat along for the ride back home ( not physically). I really like the Imperial's rear section. Simple yet elegant at the same time. I like the tail lights. Derek, when are we gonna see the return of your brother ? I laughed so hard when you two were working together... You having fun... Him looking at you like you've completely lost your mind. Hilarious !! Thanks for letting me hang out with you for a bit. I really appreciate it.

Regarding the gas tank removal - around 1980 I bought a 1972 Buick lesabre my wife drove and the in tank sending unit went out. Being unable to afford having it done and working 7 days a week on end I decided to do it. I layed under it rested the tank on my chest and then got her to the ground and visa versa. Remember my wife coming out when had the tank on my chest saying dinner and finally handing me a pb&j sandwich because she knew I was way too invested to stop 😅.

@@bgee461My son was home on leave from the Marines and I gave him a full set of wrenches to keep back at his home on the base. Dadgum they took them at airport security . The only option he had was miss his flight back and be AWOL so he could keep his wrenches or not contest them and let them keep them. I fully understand security on airplanes but wrenches?

I, too, like this car for some reason! I think it's a combination of the maroon color, the wheel & tire combination, the eye pleasing classic long hood/short deck styling, and the fact that back in the day, it was a "top of the line" personal cruising car. I guess. I just like it. Oh, and probably the glass hood ornament! I remember seeing them in parking lots back then, and always thought they were a neat touch!

Focus on long term investments in property, stocks, and bonds. Avoid copying, daytrading and 'chart astrology'. Diversify across different geographies, industries, and value chain stages - to reduce your risk. You can do this with ETFs, or by selecting different stocks yourself. This is the best way to invest for more than 90% of people

Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again.
