    YouTube style wreck while leaving a car show in my town.

    As far back as the 1980s we knew this about Dusters. They have very light rear ends and will get away from you quickly if you are doing something stupid.

    Correct 340 oil filler cap?

    Does anyone know the correct valve cover oil filler cap for a 340. This would be for a late build 1971 corporate blue engine. I have seen one with the center rivet with an "S" stamped on it, and another cap that has E/F on the ears. Thank you.

    Question on drivers side exhaust manifold gasket

    A friend recently gave me a sheet metal exhaust manifold gasket for a 318. Does anyone know the difference between the 318 and 340 gasket? I saw something a long time ago on how it can be modified to work for the 340 but I am not sure what it was. Thank you.

    67 Barracuda New Door Panels

    I believe they are used so when you push in the wire type retainers it doesn't show on the covered side of the panel. They tend to push out where the retainers are when pushed onto the door.

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    I rebuilt my original Thermoquad 4973s after it being off the car since around 1994! Shout out to Woodruff Carb who rebuilt the baseplate and repaired my frozen and broken off air fuel mixture screws!

    Heater cores

    Has anyone found a brand that fits that doesn't need to have the pipes moved and re-soldered? Does anyone have these re-cored anymore, because other than Glen Ray I have not found anyone locally. Thank you!

    modern muscle

    I bought my 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona in 2014 and had wanted one since I first saw them in the dealership parking lots. A few light upgrades and it's a fun car for scooting around town. The Duster is a forever car though.

    Why are classic 4 door sedans "disliked"?

    Like many have said. Back "in the day" when we were young and rebelling or wanting to be different than the old folks like your parents we wanted cars that were loud, they wanted quiet, we wanted high impact colors, they wanted greens and browns. The Malibu they drove had that single exhaust...

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    Nothing too big on the Duster but I used some Dupli-color vinyl dye on my Daytona floor mats. They came out good, the test will be how well they hold up.

    I am going to be replacing the fluid in my 8 3/4 soon and I was wondering what transfer pump works best on a budget to remove the fluid? Basically a hand pump style nothing too fancy:)

    FED EX.......WTF

    I cringe when I see something I bought is being shipped by FedEx. One item they lost, then they lost two separate shipments of my checks. I got through to a FedEx manager on the phone. He tells me they have been having problems with small packages. For a company who's only business is to ship...

    1971 Thermoquad dates

    I am curious on the build dates on the 1971 4972 and 4973 Thermoquads. Specifically what would be the approximate latest build date on these. I have been looking for some time and I haven't seen one built after March of 1971. Does anyone have any of a later date? I have a 1972 Thermoquad with a...

    "You Mopar guys" The Mark Worman effect?

    There is something about Mopars. Every time I am at a cars and coffee type event people address me as being a Mopar guy I guess because I have a Duster. They don't know that I have owned a 360 powered AMC Gremlin, two V8 Vegas, a 1972 Chevelle, a 1975 Firebird, a 1956 hot rod Chevy, a 1969 Mach...

    How many of your personal cars ended up in junkyards?

    In 1985 I bought a 1971 Chevelle Malibu 350 for $100.00, triple green that had seen too many NY winters. The quarters were rotted half way up, fenders flapped in the breeze and the 350 had a bad cam and lifters. Sent that one to the junkyard. My 1976 V8 Vega, no rust, houndstooth interior and a...

    (1971) Thermoquad rebuild question?

    It's a 4973s...yes the screw is missing. I actually have two 4973s carbs and a 1972 thermoquad and I am making one good carb from the three. I am not using the base plate in the pic. The other carb does not have the hot idle compensator so I am trying to remove this one.

    (1971) Thermoquad rebuild question?

    I believe this is called a hot idle compensator? Does anyone know how it is removed without damaging it? Does anyone know if one is available somewhere? Is it possible to eliminate it and plug it? Thank you.

    Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

    1982 hanging out and my girlfriend and her sister comes home in her new boyfriend's car. He pulls up in a 1969 Mach 1 with Cragars, jacked up with 50s on the back that stuck out of the quarter panels. We both said what a cool car. 1989 I see a local ad for a Mach 1 for sale. Yep, same car...
