    1958 Dodge

    My 1964 Nova SS, I stripped this to the bare metal, spray guns, expensive primer and paint, the whole nine yards. I recall priming and wet sanding multiple times, got it darn near perfect. Replaced the front fenders, the rest of the car was original rust free, had it's share of dings, but...

    Nice! I'm working in the rain today, just can't fit around this thing to get stuff done in the garage.

    DA with 80 did absolutely nothing, it needed the Bauer 9000.

    1958 Dodge

    Good or bad, love it or hate it, this is getting rattle can primer/paint. Once it gets some dignity back in the looks department, two tone color, trim, emblems, mirrors, etc., it needs everything else to make it roadworthy and safe. It's the everything else I want to spend the time, energy, and...

    Big block 67 Fastback Barracuda Not Mine

    The VIN in the add is for a Fastback 383 '67, just don't see a pic of it. BH29H7 I like it, you put on it what you can find/afford and move on. 45k I want the 4th white letter though.

    Big block 67 Fastback Barracuda Not Mine

    Only 67 383 cars had the turn downs with the half moon cutouts in the lower valance, no tips.

    Not mine 1967 commando 273 automatic with air fastback Barracuda (rough) but there.

    Local guy has a solid 67 fastback with a 318 4 speed for under 15k. Imo a reasonable price in these here parts.

    1958 Dodge

    I completely agree, and also completely disagree. I have spray guns and multiple compressors, and I've prepped and painted a few cars. The painting is the easy part, prepping takes weeks/months. The guy who took all the trim off, not the po, took a DA sander and destroyed the finish, gouging...

    1958 Dodge

    The plan is to dive into this car within the next few months. Someone posted a comment on the youtube that it reminded them of a 50s nascar. I was surprised when I realized, over time, this comment has sunk deep into my brain. Found 2 pics today of what I believe is a 57 D-501, hardtop no...

    AFTERMARKET SHIFTER HANDLES

    Hurst replacement for 67 a-body bench seat, did not come from the factory in any year. Iirc, replacement for 64-67 Inland bench. In the car when I got it, shorty, black face ball is slightly larger than full white ball, best Hurst I've ever had.

    I need the part #s off the squared off U bolts in the black package and the bumpers please. Want to put my traction bars, which are the very similar to the ones hanging at the bottom, back on my 67 Barracuda.

    IBM card data

    2 punches can also be a letter, as in the VIN, Trim or Paint code, which are read without the bottom 1-80 numbers.

    IBM card data

    Each column is numbered on the bottom 1-80. The last 3 before the control number are 68/69/70, so the last 3 codes would be: 689 EXPORT/DLR.

    Found pics of my old high school car, out in the sticks were I grew up. 1957 210, GM Performance crate 350/330hp, Muncie 4 speed, posi, Impala SS bucket seats. Did everything myself on the cheap, car was a burnout beast. A friend worked at GM, got me that performance crate 350 for $1,100...

    Best Drop Hitch?

    Agreed. Found this Class 5, appears to be lower than the bumper, reducing the drop hitch I would need, and both the truck and receiver are an upgrade. Many pics from their website with different make/models, this one looks like a similar year Dodge...

    Best Drop Hitch?

    Great question. In retrospect should start there. For my own info, on my 08 Silverado I had a Curt receiver, 4 bolts into threads in the box frame, 2 bolts into threads in the bumper: Class III 2 Inch Hitch 6000 lbs GTW Visible Cross Tube 600 lbs TW 10000 lbs WD GTW 1000 lbs WD TW The hitch is...

    Best Drop Hitch?

    B&W largest drop is 9" and the shaft appears to be box not solid. Weigh Safe largest is 10" and aluminum. With a 3" body lift and a suspension lift, neither are even close. My 3" drop is solid steel, am I crazy for being unsure about box and aluminium?

    Best Drop Hitch?

    Looking for recommendations for a good drop hitch brand/maker. For my car trailer with my rust bucket 2008 Silverado, I had a 3" drop hitch, considering with a loaded trailer the suspension will roughly drop an inch. My new acquisition is a giant lifted 1984 Ram and needs a much longer drop...

    Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's

    That's what I found remnants of on my 67, white paint on the rear, springs, and even the spare tire well. I thought the white on the spare tire well was overspray, as it had been spray bombed black after. What is the extent of the white paint, how far does it go on the underside of the floor? I...

    Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's

    Day 2 rules! When I picked up my '67 all those years ago, it had the Superior 'The 500' wheel, Hurst shifter, license plate, traction bars, and the rear and springs were white. I also recall remnants of white on the spare tire section, thought is was probably overspray. I found the 'Cuda...

    IBM Card 1971 Duster 340

    I have looked, and we are probably talking the same thing here, different language, or whatever it's called. Broadcast sheet has more codes, however it all comes from the IBM card. I like the details, and my understanding is the IBM card/data feeds everything to the broadcast sheet and fender...
