Green Replacement Straws for Gear Heads - Its a great idea!

Here is a great idea for gear heads, for all pros and especially us amateurs! It is pretty simple but we have all been there! I lose them all the time.

The Carolina Breakers were terrific. Probably more than 1000 old cars showed up. If you like old cars and beach music this is a must for anyone. Here's a video from earlier this year.…

This was the beginning of his quest to rebuild primarily, motorcycle engines. He turned his parent’s backyard into a mechanic shop, stripping engines and putting side carts on some motorcycle models.
