If anyone is looking for something to get me....hint hint. This would do nicely, Thanks in advance.

Cleaning the snow off my daily driver this morning, I look down at my license plate, and the stickers say 11, 19 Doh, what the heck. I seem to remember getting the renewal in the mail. And I think I sat down at the computer and did the on-line renewal, and then forgot about it. Searched the...

We made the call, and the Vet will be at our house in the morning to take our beautiful boy to his final resting place. We've had him for 15years, got him at about 8 weeks old. He's a super sweet guy, and the best cat we've ever had. He's been fighting kidney disease for 4 years, and what a...

Selector shaft seal on my A500 is leaking, which is strange since I replaced it when I built this trans, and it's only been up and running for a little over a week. Guess it's possible I damaged the seal when putting the valve body in or just got a crappy seal. Anyone ever changed one without...

So I've only had it out for a few short drives, then to work and back on thursday. All was fine except throttle pressure cable needs further adjustment. This morning I adjusted my kickdown cable, added a return spring, fixed a small leak on one of the cooler lines. Go to take it for a drive...

Well actually two. These were awarded to me by me. lol One is for "Best Car Ever" in the catagory of "cars built by me" The other is a perseverance award for "most years spent building one car", in the same catagory, "cars built by me". Well, not really, I just saved these from going into...

My wife went to California for christmas to be with her 86 year old mother. I was suppose to leave the house around 5pm today to pick her up from her return to Colorado. She just called, they cancelled her flight due to snow in Denver. I got up to see a couple inches this morning, but not...

So I'm looking for a couple switches to activate the overdrive solenoid, and converter lockup solenoid and the A500 trans swap I'm doing. Its my understanding that on the 3 pic connector on the trans, you run a hot (key on) to the center pin. The solenoids get activated my grounding each of the...

Making progress on my A500 tranny swap. As far as having my driveshaft shortened. I was just going to measure center of front u-joint to center of rear u-joint. My question I guess is about measuring. I was planning on sliding my new slip yoke into the tranny till it stops, and then pull it...

I work at a high school, the kids, teachers, and office staff get two weeks off. But being a custodian, we get two days, Christmas Eve and Christmas day. But I'm taking Monday the 23rd so it'll be like a 5 day weekend. What do ya get?

Ok, so I'm installing an A500 into my '68 Dart. I bought the USCartool A518 / A500 crossmember. It uses the existing 4 mounting holes that the original transmission crossmember did. So I cut out a section of my upper crossmember to make room, and cut just inside of the inner original mounting...

Dont know if anyone has seen this. Custom gauge panel for 68-69 darts. It's molded ABS, three different finishes available. Looks like $319 for the dash panel by itself, or you can get it loaded with gauges for a lot more money. Just putting it out there, I know there are lots of options for...

Between 3pm yesterday and 10am this morning we got 22" of snow here in Lyons CO. Here's a few pics. The back yard, my wifes Sentra and my Titan. p.s., I saw on Lyons facebook page, this girl is stuck in Boulder and needs a ride back to Lyons. I told my wife I was going to go get her, and she...

So the other day I decided to run a compression test on my 5.9 magnum. Haven't done one since I put the engine together a couple years ago, so just decided to check it out. Numbers look pretty even across the board, all between 139 and 144. Plugs look kinda of black and sooty probably because...

I know a lot of us used to hang out on the Moparts forum before migrating to FABO. I still check in there once in a while, and if you've spent much time there at all youve probably heard of Stu Harmon. A 20+ year Moparts member, and a great guy who was always open to a visit from any member who...

Found a guy locally selling a speedo and tach, new never used, wants $200 for the pair, but I can't seem to find these for sale anywhere so don't know if that's a great deal, or where I would get other gauges like these to do a complete dash setup. See the pictures

I work in a high school, afternoon shift, I get in about half hour before the kids get off. I left my North Face jacket lying on the counter by where we punch in. Don't normally leave it there but got in early and had to sit there for a while before punching in. So then I punched in and went to...

Only one, but it will take him 2 hours. So during our recent 4 days of snow and very cold temps, I ran out of washer fluid. No problem, just pop the hood and fill 'er up. Nope, seems no matter how much you pull on the release inside the cab, the hood will not pop. Let it slide for a few days...

Just passing this along. Was shopping for tires for my daily driver Nissan Titan. Found the tires I wanted, best price at Simple tire. com. $124.97 x 4 and then $42.00 tax. Before I bought I checked Discount Tire.com. they where $126.97, but they had a price match button, so I clicked it and...

So, I have a couple questions, but I'll give you the situation first so you know whats going on. We have only bought one home, 27 years ago, and bought straight from the owner. So we have like no experience with agents. A little over a year from know we will be moving from Lyons, CO to Lakeview...

Who makes the thinnest head gaskets that will work with a 5.9 magnum? Doing a cam swap this winter and thought that would be a good time to switch to the thinner head gaskets. Right now i'm running whatever came in my rebuild gasket set, probably .045, or .050 thick. Suggestions? Part numbers...

Have a nice set of hubcaps off a '72 dart that I used to own. Decent condition, one has some dings around the edge. See the pictures. Looking for $50.00 shipped within the continental u.s. parts are located in Lyons, CO. Thanks for looking.

Here is a nice clean set of factory strut rods, off a '71 scamp, were used on my Dart for a while. They should fit A-body's up through '72, and maybe later, not sure. They have the Moog 7040 two piece rubber bushings. Still in great shape. Freshly stripped and painted, ready to bolt on...

I have a really nice set of A-body lower control arms. These fit up to 1972, and have the factory sway bar tabs. Freshly bead blasted, nice clean metal, not a bunch of pitting like some i've seen. Bushing were replaced about 5 years ago, but while on my Dart, these probably only saw about 3000mi...

I have a nice set of rebuilt upper control arms. The should fit any A-body up through 1972. (small ball joint) Arms are it great condition, not a bunch of pitting like on some you see. They already have the Moog problem solver bushings installed so you can adjust in more caster. The ball joints...

So had the valve body out of my A500/42RH to do the Transgo shift kit. Trying to reinstall the valve body and the park rod. Can't seem to get the park rod to go all the way in. Whatever mechanism is at the back that the rod end has to pass through seems blocked, or for whatever reason I can't...

Found this in the alley about 50ft from my garage.

The job that I've been counting on, the job that I thought I had in the bag, the job that would have gotten me off swing shift and on days, the job that I've been waiting for 3-1/2 year's for it to open up. It opened, I applied, and I don't even get to interview for it. All I get from HR is...

Ok, I know this has been beat to death, and I should have all the answers by now after reading all the other threads, but sometimes i'm a little dense and it takes a bit to sink in. Looking to do a cam change, not right away but in the near future. I'd like opinions on a couple of specific...

Why is it that you can get a much better deal on a plan, with more data if you sign up and buy your phone and plan online, rather than in store? Going to switch to Verizon prepaid plan $45 for 8gb high speed data, and for a limited time the'll throw in another 8gb. That's what I read on their...
