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...

Known this guy for years, couldn't get this car (in my price range) out of my brain. Would like a chance to own a 50s Mopar, and the 58 Dodge is the one, imo. So, I went to take a good look, at least a better look. He saved it years ago, no doubt, unfortunately put it in the only available...

I cannot find a shift knob that actually looks like a soccer ball. Anyone have or ever seen one? I can find cheap plastic ones on amazon, knobs with a tiny pic, a big pic, or crappy ones like in the pic below. The last one looks close, but the other pics in the ad show a deformed version of a...

I would never buy it, but it's cold out and I'm bored, so what's it worth? I believe it was a 340 car, whether it was a Formula S who knows unless the buildsheet is in it. It's a shame to see it waste away, the body looks to be fairly solid.

Looking for pics of an original bench 4 speed. Preferably a year with the short Hurst stick. Without the boot would be nice too. Below is a 67. The hole is offset, the stick is centered with no bend left or right.

I threw a new cap and wires on it, won't fire up at all, nothing works. Any ideas?

On a naturally aspirated engine, what are the benefits of having a vacuum gauge? Just wondering and I don't see much online on the topic. I have all the basics covered, oil, temp, volt, but it seems vacuum could be beneficial. I have the Performance Indicator, however I'm not sure how...

I looked at a 64 B body that allegedly has a 6 cylinder manual. It appears it was converted to a manual. The dash has pushbuttons, the column has a shifter, and there is a clutch pedal. I didn't think anything of it until I was looking at pics later. Anyone know what transmission this is? I...

It appears to go from under the seat, under the aluminum carpet border and flips back over under the seat. I had checked under the seats many times, took pics with phone shoved under there, noticed it today when I went to stick the vacuum between the seat and back panel. How do yoy get the...

Wagon has been sitting too long, 318 poly is stuck. Is the 318 worth the effort to free, or a total rebuild?

It has been a while, but I got the tunnel ram 383 done, a year ago. Just wanted to thank FABO for your input, that and a skilled and honest engine builder. I found another hood at a swap meet that is the same color as the scoop (?) with some old school stripes on it. I'll make a better hole in...

I need to gather parts to finish putting together an engine (cam, timing, rockers, gaskets, etc), clutch (everything), and other parts (tranny seals/gaskets, etc). It would be nice to get everything in on place, to save time, shipping, and bs. Let's look at a n Engine Kit Gasket Set...

On eBag, a Dart 383 engine: LS23H9B226208 Anyone looking for this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/383-hp-engine-mopar-dodge-plymouth-DART-GTS-formula-s-/180652354920?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a0fb82d68

OK, I am picking up a 383 tomorrow, bored .030, new pistons, cam, lifters, assembled, with 9:1 compression. He is going to give me 915 or 516 heads, my choice, but they need a rebuild. I also get the balancer, timing cover, water pump, cast iron intake, oil pan, and a really nice engine stand...

My very good friend Greg (aka Grego, aka Peck) passed Saturday @ 5:18 am, he was 40. To make a long story short, his wife had brain cancer about 2 years ago, and is a survivor. His dog had cancer shortly after and died. He had testicular cancer about a year ago and survived. He was diagnosed...

OK, its not a Mopar, but it was still a cool car. Sitting at work one day about 10 years ago, I said to my friend, "I've always wanted a 64 Nova SS." So I checked the local ads and wadda ya know. Nice shape, great interior, solid car, needed fenders and paint. I paid less than $3k, put...

I have the Weiand high rise manifold pictured below and it is nearly impossible to get the inner 4 bolts tight. I have tried adding different washers, different number of washers, using allen head bolts, different wrenches, u-joint sockets, etc- and nothing works. There is also a limit to the...

Has anyone heard of this car, or have any pics of it? I'm curious as I have seen less than a handful of 67 Barracuda drag cars. http://www.moparmusclemagazine.com/featuredvehicles/b_body/mopp_9910_1966_dodge_hemi_charger/photo_18.html

I am looking for information on the "HP" or "HP2" stampings, which are, for example, found on the front pad of the 383 in the pic below. Information I have found from reliable sources is listed below, (reliable sources include the Barracuda Data Book, Galen books, and information I have...

I hate it when you try to buy a real pos off ebag and someone else throws a bid in for another 50 cents. I placed a bid on a stupid junk pencil for a decent amount, based on what it was, only because it was from the dealership where my car was sold out of, that no longer exists, and someone out...

Its not a Mopar, but way kool. A friend of mine has a 67 Cobra like the one pictured below, except its red. It has been in pieces since he got it in 1971, and he bought replacement parts for it at that time- including all new from the factory aluminum body panels. He has recently started the...

The Walter P. Chrysler Club recently announced that their 2011 National Convention is going to be held in beautiful Vermont. This annual gathering of the country’s best Chryslers, Dodges, Plymouths, Imperials and De Sotos, among others, will take place July 13-16 in St. Johnsbury, just across...

OK, so I've seen these in black, semi black, 'natural' stainless, shiny stainless, different than the tail light pieces, the same, etc, etc. What is the correct color for the center piece and the tail light pieces?

Here's a few, including a Shelby Europa?

So I listed a car last week, set a reserve, and let it go. Didn't reach reserve, and I'm not being ridiculous with it, I know its not worth what you have in it, what it would have sold for in 2006, etc. The problem: all of the messages I get are ridiculous; Please send me your phone number-...

Pics. Many of the cars there I already have pics of, so this is short. There were quite a few Hemi cars, most of which I think were born that way. The 67 Barracuda has cloth inserts on the seats- factory?

Okay, what are these for? Went to a swap meet today, and this was the only Mopar part I could find.

This thing sounded like a 4 cylinder, and looked like it had been driven non stop for the past 80 years. It was cool. Time for a new air filter maybe?
