    Know a driven young person?

    I wanted to use the resource pool that is BARF before braving the great unwashed that is craigslist. I doubt most people here in the sink look at the employment section but I wanted to get the post in front of some of your eyes. If you know a young person looking for an interesting...

    Classic Automotive Apprentice Sought

    I’m offering this position on BARF before going public in order to give someone here a head start. If you know a person that might be a good fit, pass it along. The automotive repair industry is changing rapidly. Newer cars almost require an EE degree to work on proficiently. This shop is not...

    Help finding someone...

    So I've lost track of a guy who I used to do business with. He relocated to another state and took some parts to finish for a customer's car and he has fallen off the face of the earth. His e-maill bounces back. His phone has been turned off, no FB and no forwarding address was left at his...

    FS/trade one box 44 mag jacketed soft point

    I somehow ended up with this random box of ammo. Funny I never owned a 44 magnum, oh well. I don't know how much this is worth so make me a reasonable offer and come to west Oakland to pick it up. For trade, I shoot .22, 9mm and .45. I currently have a good supply of 9 and 45 so if you've got...

    That's right its a Colt .45, Combat Commander model. That makes it slightly smaller than a standard issue Colt. I took a pic of my standard sized series 80 to compare. Forget all those other brand knock offs. This is the real deal. Colt MKIV series 80. Forged steel. No stampings...

    Manly arts?

    So I was reading this thread: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=421839 Where the OP can't start his bike but he sure can post on the internet. A good samaritan from barf comes and bump starts his bike for him. Embarrassing enough if you ask me and then he proceeds to...

    PSA: Do NOT buy a first generation Boxster or 996

    If for any reason your dream Porsche includes either the Boxster or 996, please wake up and find another dream. No matter how cheap those cars get they will be time bomb money pits. What you may or may not know is that neither the engines nor transmissions are designed to be serviced, one...
