I wanted to talk to the guy with that Orange Duster about his suspension but unfortunately didn’t see him. You guys had a nice group of cars

Maybe 2:30-3:00. I wasn’t paying attention to the time.

I think you won a trophy. They were calling names and nobody showed up then they said a 65 Valiant. I turned around and your car wasn’t there so I’m assuming it was you. Nice car BTW

I was helping a friend out at the track pretty much all day. Thanks for the offer though

All shined up ready to make the 2.5 hour drive.

I feel like this was the same as last year but ended up being a nice day. Let’s hope

I plan on heading up.

I have a front pair of Hotchkis Fox 1.5” Monotube shocks for sale. They have approximately 6000 miles on them. Both are good but one has some damage. The threads on one of them are damaged and I couldn’t remove it. Had to resort to grabbing the lower part with a vice grip. I’m sure you can...

Finally got around to getting it done. It’s close but no rubbing what’s so ever.

Yes.

So unfortunately, I brought the car up there just wanting to do the rear tailpipes for now. The shop found some stuff that needed to be addressed with the front section and wanted to build a whole new system They would need the car for 2 days. Since I was an hour away from home with no ride...

Went out in the garage to figure out how to mount the tips. Came up with a quick idea with what I had. Just a piece of angle iron bolted to where the rear leaf spring hanger would go. They will be all cleaned up once they’re finialize. Going Tuesday to have the tailpipes bent up.

I like that idea. I’ll need to check if I have room to bring the exhaust to the inside of the frame/spring.

That’s exactly how I’m going to have mine done. Although, The tips won’t be in the exact factory location. They’ll be black so it won’t be so noticeable.

I have a full 3” inboard kit with mini tubs. I’ll need to come up some ideas to mount the brackets

With your suggestions I ordered Abody tips. Because of the relocated springs I’ll make some new brackets to mount them. Then, to match of the look of my car I’ll send them out to get powder coated black before the tailpipes get bent up.

Thank you. My car has the springs moved inboard so unfortunately I can’t run pre-bent tailpipes.

1971CY. Any exhaust shops your way that can bend some new tailpipes? I was thinking of giving Pop’s Exhaust a call.

Going to new tailpipes soon. Currently my temporary pipes exit on an angle behind the rear tire. Should I have them exit like they are now or go out the rear like the factory did?

Not at all. It’s off center just a little. I had to do that to fit the gauges the way I wanted. Feels and looks very normal while driving

Sorry, Mailbox is cleaned out.

Converter has about 2500 street miles on it. They built it a little “loose” to get a stock engine to respond better down low. It was built for a cruise night style car. Stalled 2800 behind a 5.2 with 3.55’s and around 3000 behind a 5.9. $400 Located in Connecticut.

November 2023 Hemming Muscle Machines

It was in the November issue which came out mid October

They are 5.25” and the rear was cut, I think 1.5” or 2” each side.

Thank you. I’ll take you up on the offer. I couldn’t find any copies in the store

Thank you
