    This poor Dart.....

    It`s the rims that don`t go with it, change them out and it will look a whole lot better. Paint scheme is O.K. not something I would choose but I could live with it.

    help with over heating

    Did it overheat before you added the homemade shroud? If the shroud is too deep into the fan blade it can reduce the effectiveness of the fans ability top draw air through the radiator. I think you want at least 3/4" of fan blade sticking outside of the shroud area. Post some pics of your setup...

    I am posting this here because nothing else makes sense

    As we all know our cars are old. I would do a thorough inspection of the wiring under the dash could have some mouse eaten wires under there with you working on the wiring something could have shorted out causing the fire. Glad you didn`t have any major damage or injury. Let this be a wake up...

    rare 383 $10,000?????

    Ok well the consensus is in he`s off his nut! Glad that didn`t take long. Maybe that motor is worth 10K to the guy who has the car it goes into and he "HAS " to have it, but I seriously doubt that's gonna happen anytime soon!

    belt throwing issues

    I had an 89 GMC S-15. Had a new motor put in but the mechanic never put the PS pulley on all the way. Tossed the serpentine belt at least 3 times before I figured it out. Last belt ripped out the elec connection on my A/C compressor, had to get a new compressor because of that! :banghead: Like...

    need baffles ?

    X3 Thats all I did for a pair of Cal Customs. Plus a little red permatex over the screw heads for even more cheap insurance from having any screws back out! I bought a set of MP`s that had some homemade baffles in them too. They have a 1/4 " hole drilled in the center of each baffle to prevent...

    So this car rolls up to my shop today

    Can`t tell for sure in the pic but that rear bumper looks like it might be chrome, maybe it`s the light hitting it but it sure looks shiny? Could you even get a elastomeric front bumper/chrome rear bumper combo from the factory?

    My car shelter is sick

    This is my solution! My fabric was starting to leak after 3 winters, so I got a bunch of 4x8 Aluminum sheets cut them down and bent them up into standing seam panels and strapped the tent frame with 1" girt. Cost me ZERO dollars. :blob:Leftover stock from the job site! I plan on wrapping the...

    New Rad puzzled

    Not sure about the setup for an A body. On my E body the /6 radiator wouldnt work when I dropped in a stroked 360, the upper rad hose outlet was on the wrong side and the fan blade would hit the upper rad hose. I went with a Spectra V8 rad from Rockauto my car doesn`t overheat and no shroud on...

    Epic Ride to See Black Sabbath in Irvine, CA

    Pretty sure Dio was the frontman for Sabbath in 1980 Heaven and Hell. Ian Gillian was around 84-85 I think, with the Born Again album. Thanks for sharing your trip. Love Sabbath!!!

    I need a hand Ya'll

    Glad to hear the cat food is working! :cheers: You can add a teaspoon or 2 of water to it as well to get him more fluids, just don`t add to much and ruin the consistency of the cat food if its too runny he may turn his nose up to it. Have you been taking him to the vet too? If he is dehydrated...

    I need a hand Ya'll

    Sorry to hear about your pet! I had a Basset hound and when he wasnt feeling well and had no appetite I gave him can cat food it worked a few times for me. Plus dipping my fingers in the water dish with him right in front of it and running my fingers under his gums made him drink too. A little...

    [WANTED] 1972 Duster - Fuel Filler Neck

    Can you braze over the pitted area and save it or is it too far gone? I have an extra filler neck with a little pitting for an E body I was going to do that to it and hopefully save it then maybe spray some galvanizing paint over it to cover the brazed area. Hope this helps.

    [SOLD] Misc. Linkage Lot

    FWIW I don`t think these are automotive. They look like linkage pieces off of H.V.A.C damper shafts. Good luck with the sale.

    Very nice! My only question is why would you want to sell a car as rare as this on Craigslist? :scratch: Wouldn't the exposure at a Mecum or Barret`s auction bring in better money?

    fiberglass hood

    I used 2 springs off my kids trampoline for my hood, springs hold the hood up fine closes nice and smooth too.
