Check with Browne Salvage, Sunset, Tx N of Decatur for needed bone parts. Good guys IMHO

Welcome from Texas!

Ok. is good state for old car hunting, but most are rough and hard to find anything less than $1500 or so. Be careful of wood hippies and old guys that will shoot at ya.

Every state is different. I have a 75 car that a PO had changed out dash pads and thus the vin was left on that swapped in dash. It came into Tx from out of state so it required the Tx DPS to check it out and they saw the issue. TX DPS then stamped their vin on the B pillow and issued a Tx...

Welcome! While you were in Mo., Clay and Son near St. Louis is a great source of needed non repop parts. Next trip maybe!

S E TEXAS .... today 101, heat index 120 in the shade. Paint them and set in sun, Verify temp with the HF heat gun and it will read about 150 degrees!! Done.

For those that did not live the era. I admit I am spoiled from the "old days" when the "muscle cars" built in the 60s, early 70s first came into favor. (They were mostly sorta woreout sorta rusty mustly OLD cars unless a garage pampered 70 hemi Cuda.) Which was mid 80s when people realized new...

Today. I say just about the only way to ever buy a project for what it is really worth, is to get one off a hobbiest that has restored 100% or even just a little. They have an understanding. The dudes that has them for sale on Marketplace, CL have no clue. They simply research what the other...

^^^ We all know, anythings value depends on IF you are buying OR selling!! :poke:

Score!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:

Welcome from Texas!

Muratic acid...nasty chit... I rather breath carbon monoxide and bathe is the China bug.

LIke the old 76 Duster I bought a couple years ago. The oem ECU had ALL the back side insulation melted away long ago, but it ran perfect. I bought a new ECU to carry for a spare. OK... I should find another old 50 year old ECU to carry for a SPARE!! :rofl: :steering: :thumbsup: :BangHead...

I call them good projects if they have frame rails!!!! Rusted away frame rails scares some of us Southern boys! I fixed only one in the last 76 years.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :steering:

Its like the guys that swear their car only has 26,833 miles because that is what shows on the odometer! But there is surface rust and rust that took out the frame, but I agree... Rust is still rust. Heck, I am so old, I remember when no one wanted a original 340 Duster because it was a...

I have had many 70-2 Dusters over the years as many if us, but those year cars as projects, around our 4-5 state area have dried up and IF you find one, they are even more stupid priced as 99% of all the projects out there anyway. Just life. Last year I was seriously searching for a 73 up...

Tell him to HURRY UP!!!!

The thing about these models is they never sold that many when new and 99.9% have been crushed. The ones that weren't crushed sat outside for 60odd years and have rotted into the ground. Most people consider them "homely". (I like them) Is what it is.

1. Her son is learning body/paint work in prison. 2. If a tornado takes out the mobile home, the whole family can live in the RoadRunner. 3. Back in the 80s, 90s especially I have seen this situation many times. Sometimes even an old hemi car missing the hemi and vin and trim tags. Ok.... so...

Remember its a beaker! :poke:

My manual was written only in Chineeze, I had to take a darn course just to learn Chineeze, ......chinks.....

Even my Fords use such seals, I bet to help air flow to radiator. Ford ones are cheap...the Mopar ones might not be! :BangHead: :poke:

I am thrilled to see the "old car community" coming to Steve's aid. All we ever hear these days is negative and political BS and slanted news about everything in this world. I certainly do not know Steve personally, I just have always assumed him to be one of us old car loving guys, trying to...

May Steve be able to pay off his med. debt and buy out those pricks at MotorTrend TV car vids BS!!

The 62 Lancer in my avatar is needing a new and loving home!!

Sorry for your loss. I had a father in law that passed decades ago. I loved him like he was my blood dad. He passed nearly 50 years ago, and I think of him often.

I say good start!!! I bet if you have the desire, you can improve upon it. I have fabbed out of 20 ga mild steel plate, 64 SS hemi, 64 max wedge, 66 427 Ford scoops etc. I get someone to send me the measurements and make them like originals. Just for my cars mind you. I would have...

My method is make any old car I buy MINE. The next guy can make it how ever the heck HE wants!! Most everything can be reversed. If it ain't a #s 71 heeeeemi Cuda, I say go for it!!

Once a guy told me I was a flipper, since in the last 50 odd years many old Mopars have passed thru my hands.....I replied I guess I could be called that, but I have dragged many an old car out of the dirt and saved it for someone. If I made a $ it went in to save another. Once a guy called me...
