    post your mopars in snow!

    Here it is January, and we don't have anyone posting their cars in the snow? How about the Canadian brothers and sisters out there at least?!?! Here in Central Texas we dont see much snow so it's cool to see it.

    Born in Oakwood, (by Dayton) and raised in Delaware, (20 mi north of Columbus). Now serving in the Army at Fort Hood, Texas, (Killeen). The picture is of my son and his car we're working on, a 1974 Dart Swinger.

    Build Records

    Might be a dumb question, but where didiyou go to order the original build record certificate and the copy of the IBM punch card from Chrysler? I'd like to have that for our Dart.

    Whats the going rate for SBP Rallyes???

    I just found these four, 14" trim rings on Craigslist by a lady in Waco, Tx. She was selling off all her ex-boy friends stuff. I paid $30 for the set and while they have a few dings, they do not have the curb rash that all four of my sons old set had. The replacements are in the first photo. The...

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    I took the truck to Auto Zone and they hooked up their code tester and it showed nothing. The salesman suggested a bad vaccuum, dirty fuel filter, and even bad gasoline. I guess my telling them it was having slippage while shifting fell on deaf ears. It seems she only heard the fluctuating RPM's...

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    My dash is not analog/digital. It's still the old numbers flipping round and round, (old school haha). I haven't had any check engine lights on either. Tonight I noticed it was OK pretty much of the day but once it warmed up, I was going about 20mph down the street and the RPM kept surgeing...

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    When on the freeway, the truck used to drop to around 1,500-1,800 rpm when cruiseing along. Now if won't drop below 2,000-2,100 unless I pull my foot clean off the gas. In town, the rpm's jump and fluctuate between 1,800 and 2,100 rpm, jumping around 500 or so rpm. No issues going into reverse...

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    My truck has over 162,000 miles on it currently and in the 3.5 years I've had it, I haven't changed the fluid, so I'll start with that and the filter. We'll see how it goes from there. If there are any other ideas / suggestions out there, I am more than open to hearing them. Thanks to all.

    Mopars for sale on sides of roads

    I found this Coronet 500 in Copperas Cove, TX. I snapped the pics a few weeks ago but the car has been there for quite a while. He's asking $20,000 for it and $10,000 for the Newport next to which he claims has a 440/6pack under it's hood, (I didn't look). I carry a digital camera just about...

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    The RPM jumps between 500 and 800 and does so once warmed up after about 10 minutes of driving. In colder weather it's not so bad. I'm not sure what my transmission is other than it has a push-button overdrive in the dash.

    Transmission question, a little off topic....

    This doesn't relate to our Dart, but in the past week my 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 4X4 with 5.9L / Auto trans has started having transmission issues. First, a little history/information on this vehicle. It runs 37" Swampers with an 8 inch total lift. This was done before I bought it in June 05. The...

    post your mopars in snow!

    This is my 97 Ram 1500 with 8 inches of lift and 37" Swampers. This was the only snow we saw all winter last year here in Killeen, Texas, (Fort Hood). It was March 08 and it all melted away by 9am, but I had to snap a picture just because snow is so rare here.

    Can't have a Mopar?

    I'm partial to wagons, call it my old age but here's one my friend in Ohio owns, a 1960 Olsmobile Super 88 Fiesta Wagon with a stock 394 under the hood. He has won a trophy in every car show he has entered.

    1974 Dart Swinger

    We were searching through Craigslist the other day and stumbled across an ad for "14inch MOPAR beauty rings and center caps for $30". I shot them an e-mail and arranged for a visit. "Them" ended up being a lady selling her ex-boy friends stuff he left when they parted ways up in Waco. She...

    64 New Yorker

    Has this car really NOT sold yet?!?! I can't believe it's still available! If that car was near me here in central Texas, I believe I would HAVE to find a way to buy it.
