Im Im a long time Mopar guy and hot rodder in general, but cant for the life of me figure out why so many try get the biggest tire/wheel possible under their cars- with the resulting rubbing issues. Most of our rides are not race cars so it should not be for the absolute best ET,, but I do...

PS: If you need to bend it some, the newer GREEN colored tubing is easier to bend- as it it does not KINK as easy. Yes, it can be tricky, but a cheap bender helps if you really need one.

Yes, thats how I did it. Some dont like splices. but I NEVER had an issue with one and a brake shop I talked with said he had installed hundreds over the years successfully. You can probably get a 12" splice/line kit at a local parts store. These are 2 I just see on Amazon- you would just cut...

Figured you would be getting new hoses anyway, but I ended up splicing in a new section of line on several that were rusted just like that...e

Think I suggested a new bar earlier....way easier and probably not much difference in cost... You have soaked that fitting and heated it w/a torch?????

Assuming you had a drive shaft loop but the break in half rendered it useless. Was the block able to be repaired?

they did the new converter with the car on the ground-so on their back- NO LIFT, and it seemed so logical that it was the main seal....and they didnt see it (gettin older).

not my car, but he said it looked exactly like a freeze plug....

The ring came off the flywheel on this 340/AT show quality car that is babied and never pushed. He replaced it and then it started leaking oil badly from the back of the engine- thought the rear main just decided to fail, but that DIDNT fix it either. This time a close inspection revealed that...

Good, I was refering to MOD 38-1 who is looking and showed some T111 Wooden sheds; unless I lived in the dry SW US, Id go METAL!

I may also recommend that you go w/a METAL shed. Ive seen and fixed my share of rotted wood.

again, DO put a heavy vapor barrier UNDER it before its set down...

If you want to save $, I did this one on the cheap: paid to have a pad poured, then bought the steel bldg- installed and paid extra for them to run the tin down both sides. I enclosed the ends myself using the same roofing tin. Not a carpenter but it worked- including an 8' car door plus a small...

Put a vapor barrier UNDER anything you get! Heavy plastic........and then gravel around the drip line of the shed to keep the water from splashing up!

tell me the story of your pu w/400K......eng/trans/what type of service/ whats been fixed? Thanks, George in NC

Im not sure, but I think you can install an aftermkt swaybar using the stock control arm- and they are easier to find (buy!). Another idea is to just weld a tab on your arm- I did this on a Barracuda myself...

Good luck on the brake line, sometimes they just dont come loose! Your idea of a line wrench is good, and maybe a lo power torch for some heat?

You can still find some 73 and up A body front discs.....and they will not break the bank, plus you can use factory parts that are well made and not terribly expensive. oppps...........just took a look, yes, even these are expensive now, at least on Ebay. Hoping you can find someone on the...

I dont remember ever reading a story that long in Hagerty, so be prepared to cut it down, but do keep the story original as it is!

Sorry, but I kind of lost track of the location, thinking it was in California? And stayed there until you got it to N Dakota?

You didnt say where the car was parked for 30 yrs? or I missed it, how you FOUND it, and where you took it! CURIOUS GEORGE in NC/ALABAMA

Bushings on the A arm suspension pieces are difficult to remove/install. I think you can get the tool that helps as a loaner at the parts house. I also would add front disc brakes- you can get them from 1973 and up older Mopars A bodies that work well- and add the safer dual reservoir master...

Neat car and neat story! Tell me how and where you found it after 10 yrs of looking. It didnt look too bad if it was in N Dakota all that time. As far as the paint. Im NOT a numbers/factory restored kind of guy, and things like painted engine bays or similar mods dont bother me but I do like my...

? But I sure would not attempt that! In any OLD car... Its been sitting for years, so would need all the fluids changed for sure, but I would definitely want to go thru the car and drive it for short trips to test it out. It does start and I watched it being driven off the trailer and into my...

The '69 Barracuda is SOLD! The '72 Duster is here and for sale, it does have headers and dual turbo mufflers out the back.

help, i marked it but could not figure out how to get it at the TOP of my ad?????

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD

SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD

Drastically REDUCED to $7000- long time FABO member is 'retiring' and moving, so getting rid of my Mopars! Looked long and hard for a 70-72 Duster that was in good shape, and found this one that had most everything I wanted. Its located in Tallahassee FL 32317, and I have not really done...
