    On Thursday’s Name That Part, we relied on grainy picture quality and poor camera angles to stump the Hooniversal Collective — just like they do on eBay! Since nobody guessed it — although one person came close, somewhat — I’m giving the victory to alf — who didn’t come close — for his guess that…

    Well. If I thought I was getting frightened by your skills before, you’re really starting to scare me now. Yesterday, I blatantly cheated. “Ha!”, thought I, “Nobody will be able to get this one!”

    In yesterday’s Name That Part, I gave you two pieces of scrap metal, each about the size of my fingernail. I got messages from people who weren’t playing telling me I was being mean, or that I wasn’t playing fair. And Mike the Dog got the right answer. Yes, they were indeed two contacts from…

    In Friday’s Name That Part, our resident Borg, p161911, came up with the answer quite quickly, clearly identifying the brake master cylinder from a 1964 Jaguar E-type. Good for him!

    After a string of Name That Part episodes were solved quite easily — and I really must give you guys credit, your ability to identify random car bits almost borders on creepy, and I mean that in a good way — I decided to try a bit more randomness yesterday. I picked a part from…

    Yesterday, Name That Part was solved in minutes. Clearly, we’ve been too easy on you. Now, granted, p161911 (who I’m firmly convinced is either Borg or a Droid, with such a lovely alphanumeric name) did solve it by finding the site I used, which I personally think is blatantly cheating. In that situation, clearly, the…

    Yesterday, Graverobber took over the reigns for Name That Part, and brought us a lever-arm shock absorber from a ’72 MG. That was nice of him. Congratulations to Armand4 for nailing it, and identifying the part so quickly and efficiently. On the other hand, Mr. Robber also brought us a heavily-oiled Sylvester Stallone in a…

    Yesterday’s Name That Part had a personalized touch. As Mike The Dog pointed out, it was the fuel pump from an AMC 195.6 OHV inline-six, circa 1964. I fought with this part at length, and after replacing it twice, ended up taking one apart and making a few tweaks to solve a problem I was…
