Over the years, I've written and published a few "how-to" tech articles that have been floating around the Internet in various forms. Most of the articles on the 'net are not kept up-to-date, and many are several years obsolete. The best way to get the most recent revisions to the articles is to e-mail me directly. I can also answer any questions you may have regarding the information presented in the various articles.

The following is a complete listing of the articles I have available at this time. If you want a copy, just drop me an e-mail request. Keep in mind that I'm an old guy, so I'm on dial-up... if you request "all of the articles" for whatever reason, it will take me at least an hour to get them out to you, so whittle your request down to the articles you actually have an interest in.

To request articles, just drop me an e-mail to:

The following Tech Papers are available in MS Word format:
(NOTE: Articles vary in size from 50K to 1,500K in size. Normally, only 3 articles can be sent per e-mail. Keep this in mind when requesting "all of the articles"….)

Next thing you're going to tell me is that Saginaw steering boxes are out. Hah! That would be the day!

Wow, who called in all the old pharts? :D

Lars, there are 15 of your articles in the tech database here, I see you have many more. If I have the other ones I will add those too, that should ease up on your dial up/email sending.

Jim, you have a bunch of papers too but I don't think I have any of them anymore. Can you tell me how many you have?

BTW, welcome guys :D
 
I didnt want to clog up your email any more so will say my thank you here. I got the papers and will be putting them to good use this weekend. Thanks Lars
 
Hey, Lars

I was surfing Ebay yesterday (so shoot me!) and I saw your name used in conjunction with a distributor for sale. It said something to the effect of "rebuilt by the world famous Lars". Pretty cool, but are you getting royalties?

Twin -
Do me a favor - If you would, send me an e-mail with a request for the "Tech Article Listing." This list shows all available papers with their current revision levels. You can then compare the list and the revision of the paper to what you have on file. If you don't have the current rev, send me a note back with the papers you need to bring your list up to the current configuration and I'll send you those papers:
