![]() ![]() I get the impression that the overall condition is good, but potential buyers will probably want to contact the owner to source some better photos or perform an in-person inspection. The door trims and carpet present well, and what we can see of the dash and console shows promise. The seats are upholstered in black leather, and there are no significant issues or problems. However, what we can see looks quite promising. He doesn’t provide many, but at least their quality is generally pretty lousy. The owner is consistent with the photos he supplies of Thunderbird’s interior. The exterior chrome is in good order, while the glass is flawless. It is spotlessly clean, with no evidence of anything more than some very slight dustings of surface corrosion on some suspension components. The vehicle is completely rust-free, and while the panels look good, the T-Bird’s underside is incredible. ![]() It is said to operate perfectly and presents in as-new condition. The owner has recently fitted a new White power top with plenty of new hardware. This car is fitted with a complete set, including the matching spare in the trunk. Early wheels suffered from quality control issues, but any that have lasted to the present day must be good ones. The other feature that helped the Roadster to stand out was the 48-spoke Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels. The distinctive fiberglass tonneau that was one of the hallmarks is intact, as are all of the correct badges. The paint holds an excellent shine, with no signs of any significant flaws. It is finished in Rangoon Red, and it presents superbly. This car is a later example, meaning that it carries the correct codes. It wasn’t until December 11, 1961, that these cars received their unique “2Y89” VIN and a Body Style code of “76B.” It is those early cars that can confuse enthusiasts. The only certain way to confirm the authenticity of those early cars was to view the original Sales Invoice. Those early cars also featured a Body Style code of “76A,” which was, once again, the same as that used for the Convertible. The first 558 cars carried a VIN that commenced with the digits “2Y85,” which was the same as used on the regular Convertible. The first example rolled off the line on September 13, 1961, and this is where the confusion begins. While Ford produced 1,427 examples of the Sports Roadster, the early cars muddied the waters when it came to verifying their authenticity. However, this remains short of the reserve. It is a classic that has sparked some interest because 35 bids have pushed the price to $15,600. The T-Bird is located in Gastonia, North Carolina, and has been listed for sale here on eBay. The owner has upgraded its V8 engine and has now decided to part with it. This 1962 Thunderbird is a genuine Sports Roadster, and its condition is above average. Verifying that the car you’re looking at is the real deal is vital unless you have no issues with throwing away good money. Consequently, it is also the one that attracts a significantly higher price in the classic market. While there is little to separate a standard Convertible from the Sports Roadster, the latter is the rarer of the pair. Take the 1962 Ford Thunderbird as an example. €¢ Ford Thunderbird Sport Roadster option 390 V-8 Cruise-O-Matic, odel year 1961• Sport tonneau top• White wall tires on Kelsey Hayes wheels• 2-door convertible body type• White with black interior• Swing away steering wheel (*NEW technology for the time!)• Radio AM• Power top, eats, nd windows all in working condition• Gas gauge is stuck• Head lights, ail lights, rake lights ALL work• Wind shield wipers work• RWD, utomatic 3-speed gearbox• dimensions: outside length: 5207 mm / 205 in, heelbase: 2870 mm / 113 in• reference weights: shipping weight 1873 kg / 4130 lbs base curb weight: 1960 kg / 4321 lbs• top speed: 202 km/h (126 mph) (theoretical) • accelerations: 0- 60 mph 9 s• fuel consumption and mileage: average estimated by a-c: 12 mpg (U.S.) / 5.I can never stress enough the importance of doing your homework before committing your hard-earned cash to buying a classic car.

The best time to prune healthy, well-maintained spring-flowering shrubs is immediately after flowering. The plant's health or condition determines the best time to prune spring-flowering shrubs. Spring-flowering shrubs, such as lilac and forsythia, bloom in spring on the growth of the previous season. The proper time to prune deciduous shrubs is determined by the plant's growth habit, bloom time, and health or condition. Do not prune branches back to older growth down the stem as new growth will not develop from these areas. The growth of pines can be slowed by pinching or pruning off one-half to two-thirds of the elongated terminal buds ("candles") in spring when the candles are approximately 2 to 3 inches long. Pines do not produce side or lateral buds. Growth on pine trees develops from terminal buds. To promote denser growth, cut shoots back to just above a lateral bud or side branch in early spring. Spruce and fir trees possess side or lateral buds on their newest (outermost) growth. Late winter is the best time to remove unwanted lower branches on evergreen trees. Dead, broken, and diseased branches can be removed at any time of the year. When is the best time to prune oak trees? | Short answer: December through FebruaryĮvergreen trees, such as pine, spruce, and fir, require little pruning.When is the best time to prune shade trees? | Short answer: February and March.Learn more about Oak Wilt in these articles: Pruning Oak Trees to Avoid Oak Wilt and Oak Wilt. If an oak tree must be pruned in spring or summer (such as after a storm), apply latex house paint to the pruning cuts to avoid attracting sap-feeding beetles to the wounds. It can spread from infected trees to healthy trees by sap-feeding beetles ("picnic bugs"). Oak wilt is a fungal disease that is lethal to many oaks. To reduce the risk of an oak wilt infection, do not prune oaks from March through October. However, if possible, avoid pruning deciduous trees in spring when the trees are leafing out and in fall when the trees are dropping their leaves. The winter months – December, January, and February – are the best time to prune oak trees.ĭeciduous trees can be pruned at other times of the year with little or no negative consequences (To clean up storm damage, for example). ![]() Also, when pruned in late winter, the walling-off or compartmentalization of wounds can begin immediately with the onset of growth in spring. The absence of foliage at this time of year gives the individual a clear view of the tree and allows the selection and removal of appropriate branches. Most trees should be pruned during the late dormant season (February through March).įebruary through March is generally regarded as the best time to prune most deciduous trees.

To commemorate her contributions to integrating African-Americans into the nursing profession, she was awarded the Spingarn Medal from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1951. Her campaign was successful in garnering widespread public support and African-American nurses were wholly accepted by both the Army and Navy by January 1945.īuoyed by the success, Staupers shifted her attention to the full professional integration of the ANA, which was achieved in 1948.

This is crucial for homes or workplaces where non-Teslas might need to charge cost-effectively.Įven the prospect of smart solar charging only for Tesla cars is not a current feature, though it is said to be in the pipeline. Other brands of smart chargers can be configured for optimal charging with your solar or variable electricity tariff and will smartly charge with any brand of car plugged in. However, this lack of ‘smartness’ is a showstopper if you want to charge a non-Tesla car with only solar power. The car decides when to charge and at what rate to take power, so the charging unit on your wall doesn’t need additional functionality beyond what the car instructs. This scarcity of features is likely because a Tesla car is engineered to control the charging process itself. I think these are two must-haves if you are looking for a home charger in Australia. The wall connector lacks a solar self-consumption function and misses out on OCPP 1.6 connectivity for third-party control and monitoring. When it comes to smart features, the Tesla Wall Connector resembles Elon after he started courting the far-right. Compared to other EV chargers, its price is on par with the ‘budget’ ZJ Beny charger. This is quite a reasonable price tag, especially when you consider the quality of the unit, Tesla’s reputation, and the generous 4-year manufacturer’s warranty. In the realm of EV chargers, the Tesla Gen 3 Wall Connector manages to deliver without burning a sizeable hole in your pocket. □♀️Confused by all this talk of connector types, AC/DC and EV charging in general? This video I made has everything an EV newbie needs to know in Australia: Considering this, it seems improbable that Australia would change its charging standards if it meant sacrificing the speed of three-phase charging from AC chargers. ![]() ![]() ![]() Although it does support single-phase charging up to 11 kW / 48A, which is the fastest AC rate a Tesla Model 3/Y can handle, the popularity of three-phase charging in Australia allows for charging speeds up to three times faster than the standard 32A single-phase (22kW vs 7.3kW), provided your vehicle can accommodate it. However, it is unlikely that NACS will become the standard in Australia due to a crucial limitation: it cannot charge vehicles with 3-Phase AC electricity. □ As a side-note: Last week, Ford and GM, and many charger manufacturers decided to adopt Tesla’s smaller NACS plugs in the US, hinting at the possibility of the ‘Tesla plug’ becoming the new North American standard. This is the plug on a US Wall Connector, but the Aussie version comes with the larger Type 2 (& CCS2) connector. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() They develop into pupae near the end of fall and overwinter in their burrows until the following summer when prey and nectar are plenty. As soon as the larvae hatch, they will have a delicious meal to feed on as they develop. Each chamber is assigned an egg and a paralyzed insect to go with it. As a solitary species with no hive or sister workers, the female will dig about a foot beneath the soil and create a series of tunnels using her mouth and spiny legs. Like other digger wasps, the Great Black Wasp females build their nests in the ground. They can commonly be found patrolling flowering plants during the summer especially during July and August. Great Black Wasps occur across the majority of the United States except the Pacific Northwest. The larvae of the Great Black Wasp will slowly eat away at the prey’s paralyzed body over the course of a week while it is still alive. Their prey consists of many insects in the Orthoptera order (crickets, katydids, and grasshoppers). The adult females are active hunters that paralyze and carry their prey back to the nest for their brood. The adults drink from nectaring flowers while hunting for prey items for their young. ![]() Their bodies are also covered in many fine hairs that collect pollen during their trips to the garden. Females wield a stinger for paralyzing prey and are a few millimeters larger than males. They have long segmented antennae, tiny pinched waists, large compound eyes, and strong chewing mandibles. Their common name, Great Black Wasp, does this insect descriptive justice with its deep black body and wings that give off a blue iridescent sheen. Sphex pensylvanicus is a species of digger wasp approximately 22-28 millimeters in length. ![]() ![]() ![]() Then MakeMKV will work fast to convert your DVD or Blu-ray video to the format of MKV for free after detecting the MakeMKV key.

Spending too long in dark areas increases Tasi's fear, as do being caught by monsters and witnessing other disturbing events in-game. Fear is reduced by the player through remaining in (quietly designated) "safe rooms" and kept from further increase by remaining in well-lit areas.
