Amazing car projects on the internet

I just have to show you some crazy stuff I found on the Internet. I am amazed at how creative some people are, and how much time they have on their hands.

First is this car scene blanket. Isn't it the cutest blanket you've ever seen? Sure you may cherish the quilt your Great Aunt Mable made you, but this car baby blanket has to be the cutest.



Now this car is amazing. A Flintstone's car! I am just amazed at the creativity in some people. There is no way I could ever come up with that. But it's on Instructables.com so if you want to make it yourself for Halloween, or any time, you can. If you do make this, leave a comment with pictures and we'll feature you in the blog.

Now everyone at one time or another has heard a man joking about cooking food on the engine of their car. The goal is to have a piping hot meal all ready by the time you drive home from work. I thought this was a myth, until I found an instrucable on it! It seems you can indeed do this. There are pictures and steps with so you should have no trouble following along. Plus there's even a book called "Manifold Destiny" with recipes and miles needed to cook! Again if anyone has done this, let us know!

This a much needed summer time necessity for the car. A backseat organizer. Here's instructions on making one yourself. These are invaluable to keep kids entertained no matter how long or short the trip is.

If you find any other great items, or instructions for the car, leave a comment!

It's Time For Spring Car Care Maintenance

Spring is the time to finally get out of the house for hours on end,
frolic in new grass and clean the house top to bottom otherwise known as
Spring Cleaning. But did you know that your car also needs Spring
Care? After a long, hard winter you need to check over your vehicle.

1. Wiper blades. Replace old ones or clean newer ones. Wiper blades
should be replaced every 6 months so just make this a habit to replace
them during your spring cleaning.

2. Salt on the roads is very damaging to your car. Give your car a
through wash, even the undercarriage, to stop rust from developing.

3. Now is the time to wax your car so it's easier to clean next time.
Plus while waxing you can find and repair any paint chips.

4. Check your tire pressure. This is the number one gas guzzler that
many people do not know about. If your tires are at the optimum
pressure, then you're wasting gas.

5. Your oil should be changed every 3 to 4 months, which makes the
changing of the seasons a great way to remember to get the oil changed.

6. Get a tune up. Get your vehicle ready for summer driving which are
usually longer trips than winter driving.

7. Check your fluid levels, top off anything so you're ready to go in
any weather.

8. It's time to clean the gunk out of the vehicle that built up over
the winter. Vacuum the inside, clean any stains, take out the mats and
wash them. It's time to let the car shine.

9. Check those brakes too. You may not realize your brakes are subpar
until it's too late. Before the bad rain hits in Spring, get your
breaks checked.

10. Finally, take care of any broken lights or any other problems you
noticed in winter when it was too cold to fix them.
