The cylinder heads can be removed without removing the engine from the car. It's tricky though, and the exhaust pipe connected to each cylinder head can be a real pain to deal with. I eventually removed the whole exhaust pipe from the center bracket under the car and lower it a bit out of the way while keeping it in place with bungie cords so that I wouldn't have to remove the whole exhaust pipe system.
For the longest time, this was the location of the Flatiron Department Store. It burned down in 1948.

Import Specialist Auto Repair & Smog
3416 Auburn Boulevard
Sacramento, CA
A few weeks ago, I discovered a peculiar similarity in many of the hand-painted signs in northerly Sacramento neighborhoods such as Del Paso Heights. Apparently, this sign painter has some sort of OCD about punctuating even sentence fragments on signs with periods. In just the last few days, I recognized his signature punctuation on several other signs throughout the city, even on the south side. With this batch of pics, I have begun to document this painter's work.
The auto repair shop on the corner of Great Jones St & the Bowery features swirling street art by the French artist WK Interact on the gates.

That is Citi Field in the background
Willets Point, aka The Iron Triangle, is a shadow-neighborhood, seemingly on the fringes of the city, and even civilization. Bound by railroads, freeways, and the Flushing River and Bay, it is a hard place to get to. There is a strange world here- entirely dedicated to auto work and scrap metal. There are no sidewalks here, the streets are barely paved, huge puddles abound, and no normal rule of traffic apply. No one has a home here, and there are no stores or any kind. Mechanical work is happening everywhere- in the garages and even in the streets themselves.
Cars come to Willets Point to be resurrected- like the pristine BMW's and Mercedes being driven back out to more genteel surroundings. Or- cars come to Willets Point to die, as seen by the overturned chassis strewn about, and the massive mound of scrap metal.
This is the ash heap of The Great Gatsby, traversed by Nick Carraway on his trips from West Egg to Manhattan....
What is most amazing about Willets Point is its location right next to Citi Field and a stone's throw away from the U.S. Tennis Open. Being such a wasteland in such close proximity to places with such national and international profile puts the neighborhood in constant peril- had NYC won the 2012 Olympic bid (thank goodness it didn't, for many reasons) this area would have been razed for an Olympic venue.
10 mile expedition to Old Vlissingen- from Forest Hills through Corona, Willets Point, colonial sights of Flushing, the World's Fair ruins, and back.

Need your import worked on? Head to 3200 MacArthur Blvd. Whether it's a Fiat, Datsun, or anything in-between, the folks here can get you back on the road. The "Service" sign says all you need to know.

1960 DeSoto on the way home from the body shop.
A truck dented the rear end several weeks ago when the driver's foot slipped off the clutch at a red light. Now that the body has been repaired it is being carried home on the flatbed to keep it away from the road salt. Trim and bumper will be re-installed in the spring.

From what I understand this store is doomed due to impending widening of U.S. 221. What a loss of a true one-stop - groceries, beverages, tires, auto repair, towing, fresh produce, latest gossip and good company.
The gang at the Taylor St. headquarters in Arlington, VA (now the site of a 10+ story building. Names I remember: Jeff Burns, Ken Mayer, Karl Keiger, Mike Pickett, Mike Inmon, Nancy, Rob Nicholson, Mathieu Mazza, Malcolm Pugh.
Motorhead repairs British Sportscars. "When it's broken and British..."
They are still around, but near the Dunn Loring metro instead of near Ballston or Clarendon: www.motorheadltd.com/
BTW, motorhead is British for what Americans call the engine block.
