Remember when Killer Clowns were cool? The Dickies do.

If you aren't aware of the Dickies, then get aware. They are a great punk band post Ramones from the late 70s / early 80s, although they still tour. They did the soundtrack to "Killer Clowns from Outer-space". Also, they had some great albums like "Stukas over Disneyland". Anyway, they made killer clowns a thing years ago. They new "Killer Clowns" are poser douche-bags and hopefully their terrorizing of neighborhoods backfires on them in the form of a shotgun to the face. 


Corvair Underdash Speakers from Oil Filters.


I cut open a few old (discontinued part numbers) filters and made some mounts. Then I used some small speakers from a Phillips home entertainment center channel. They're rated at 125w. Not sure if that's rms. Either way, I may run them to a small amp, because they don't carry as well as the rear speakers. They are loud if you crank them, and they surprisingly have great bass. 


This is a picture I couldn't resist posting. I just think it looks cool.

Corvair Gasoline Heater Converted to LP.

 

I converted my Gasoline Heater to run on Propane. Regulator didn't work. It got warm, but didnt fire hot enough. So removed that and added a valve which works well left wide open. 


Corvair Stuff

I've been spotted. 

Just rolled 50k.
And now I'm rolling without a speedo because the noise was going to bleed my ears.
