It’s not surprise that drivers who have been driving for years do not know how to parallel park a car. Parallel parking (some country called it side parking) isn’t something hard as long as you catch the clue – when to turn your steering wheel and which direction. In this video, it clearly shows each step in details and what to take note when parallel park a car. Measure the place, give signal, turn the steering wheel, pull in, and align the car to the best position. The video also clearly shows different angle of a driver performing a parallel parking. Simply the best tutorial for drivers who can’t parallel park a car. Enjoy!

Stripped down an engine and reassemble in a two-minute video
Someone on earth, Youtube user nothinghereok, stripped down a Triumph Spitfire engine and reassembles it. Stripping an engine isn’t insane but he took over 3,000 pictures of every step he did just in case he forget which parts are fitted to which place. He then created this video using all the pictures he took added with one of the most notable music “In The Hall Of The Moutain King” from Edvard Griegs “Peer Gynt Suite”. The entire work took 11 months. As you can see form the video, the whole engine is completely stripped and each screw are clearly seen on the work desk. We say Bravo! What do you say? -
1970 Morris Mini K sold for AUD $5,000
A 1970 Morris Mini K posted by minispares on eBay has just sold for AUD $5,000. Non-mini lovers may shout “What? $5,000 dollars? I can buy a used Mercedes-Benz C Class in Australia with that amount of money” Let us tell you how and why it worth that amount of money.
The first reason that this green Morris Mini attracted 22 bids across the country is because it is well-kept in an original yet unmolested condition. It was kept by a mini lover in Sydney, NSW Australia. It is powered by a 1098cc engine and it takes more than 10 seconds to go from 0 to 100 km/h, yet there is someone actually bought it with $5,000 dollars. According to the seller, all the mechanic features are still working except the wiper but he is providing a recondition wiper motor to the seller.
One rare thing that will give along to the new owner is the original steel wheels with hubcaps. The hubcaps are printed with “M” which indicates Morris. Another main selling point of this car is “no rust” but has some small dings according to the seller. As we can see from the images everything seems original including the faded original green paint. There are no speaker holes in parcel tray too. Below are some of the original notes from the seller:“Up for grabs is my 1970 Morris Mini K, 1098cc engine, orginal unmolested condition with rego till December 2012 in NSW. Everything works except wipers but a reco wiper motor is included, brand new wheels and tyres plus orginal steel wheels and hubcaps included, no rust but has some small carpark dings but nothing major, paint is original green and faded. I bought this car years aso as it was in original condition with no speaker holes in parcel tray, no flares and eveything is original except the gear knob. I recommend your inspection before bidding as you are bidding to buy and not to look. The car would probably benefit from a service and tune but i only used it to drive short trips, 2 nd gear is a bit notchy but still easily drivable. I also had an original tow bar and wiring harness professional fitted with 7 pin plug.”
If you noticed, Mini exported to Australiafeatures a triangle window at both doors. That tells us it is an Australian Mini! One thing we are in dilemma, 1970 Morris Mini should be a MKIII Mini and there shouldn’t be any external hinges. However, the one we seen here is still with two external door hinges. PerhapsAustralia model is a little bit different?It is no surprise that a rare barn find like this sold for $5,000. $5,000 is cheap compared to the rusty Mini sold for £40,250 last few months. For those who are interested in collecting barn-find Mini, you may also check out the well-preserved 1991 Mini Mayfair if it is still available for sale.

Douchebags! Don’t buy these damn cars
It is a big mistake to think antique cars are to drive slow and enjoy the scene. (more…) -
Today is the day to see Back To The Future car!
Today is not the day to see Back To The Future car! Remember the 1985 Back To The Future? There is one part where Dr. Emmett Brown set the time machine (DeLorean DMC-12) to a future date. Guess what, the date is today’s date! Marty McFly flies to June 27, 2012 from October 26, 1985 27 years ago! Is this photo just another photo chopping? Yes it is! Marty McFly and Dr. Emmett Brown only flew once to the future and that was October 21, 2015. They landed at Hill Valley. Biff Tannen found the Time Machine and flew back to 1955 to change the future. So remember the actual date, it is October 21, 2015! We will get hte actual image again three years later.
