You could fight that ticket. There's nothing that says which side of the car you can't park on.

I never did a Mopar seat, but waaaay back when I worked on old (64 1/2 - 73) Mustangs, I found that the job went easier if I could do them outside in a warm sun. Much more workable.

Cragar refunded my entire purchase price for four wheels. (Smoothies), because they rusted. I give them credit for that. I didn't think they would, but I didn't know until I tried.

For years I have said that I don't need the microwave oven to beep when I push a button, when it's done, or WHENEVER! I know it's done; it shut off! Recently, I mentioned this to a friend of my step-daughter, and she said to google the brand and model number, and I'll find a Youtube video (in...

I had a friend who put a 327 in a '73. He was like you, could put a JY rear in it with his eyes closed. He eventually put a 12 bolt in it, and then it would rip the suspension arm mounts from the body. So, he put a rear sub frame in it. It held up, but it weighed more than his brother's '68...

It wouldn't hurt if Krasner, Philliy's Soros appointed DA, would allow the cops to do something. They can't even pull over a car with lights out, or no license plate. Nor do they want to. They get released and continue on. Why should a cop go out on the line, when the system doesn't cooperate?

Thank you both. I figured someone must have it.

Is the item in this picture that's entitled "ring", available new somewhere?

Cruiser, with all respect, I wouldn't worry about what is right. I'd just make it it run good. Those mid 70's cars were terrible. Make it run like a 60's- early 70's car and enjoy the fact that you made it run properly. Also, I haven't read any of your previous posts. I hope I'm in proper...

MPH numbers were a bit optimistic. lol

I just want to update: It took a while for our schedules to jive up, but he just fixed it, as he said he would. He said it was the clear coat sinking; something about curing at a different rate than the base? He can be difficult to follow, and interrupts constantly, while talking fast. It's...

Back when cars were simple. I just learned that our Accord has an engine mount that has a fluid in it and it's vicosity is controlled my electro-magnets (I think?) to stop engine vibration! Holy Complications, Batman!

Thank you. Nothing you said there that wasn't said when I was racing. And that's exactly what I wanted to hear! I'm still not sure I'm going to do it, but since I do the test n tune thing, I may as well. From what I understand, bracket racing is not as common as it once was. I go to Cecil...

I haven't raced competitively since christmas trees had incandescent bulbs. I used to be able to see the light coming on, being on, and going out, as lots of racers did. Always foot braked, .500 tree. One car ran mid 14's, the other 11.60's. This was in the 80's and 90's. Since then, I have...

Wellllll maybe. I drove a truck for 13 years. I couldn't tell you anything about cb's. I had a cheap one just to talk with co-workers.

You've outdone yourself, @66340SEDAN! I'll "like" them all when I get more time. Imagine being able to buy an A12 RR brand new! I had a friend (RIP Ted) who did just that. He got a Kelly Green (4 spd) one for $2995, because the dealer couldn't sell it!

Reminds me of the Three Stooges short when they're plumbers. :lol:

I'm a LOT more likely to frequent a business that isn't obviously just trying to sell me something, and treats me like I have a brain. The local auto parts store was like that. Before I moved here, I was visiting and as I was heading home, the alternator went south. They opened their doors...

Duh! I was looking for something like that. Couldn't see it for looking! Post is gone now. :thumbsup:

Post #18 is blatant promotion of the link the poster provided. I don't know FABO's policy regaerding this, but it seems something should be done.

Where is p. e. i. ?

It used to be that brackets like that were illegal in Stock. I know tech inspections are few and far between anymore. Has your friend's car ever been teched with those brackets? Stock used to have to be stock, but things have changed.

So if paint takes all this time to cure, how does the factory do it? I don't remember hearing not to wax a new car.

I think because he said he'd fix it, he knows it's not because I waxed it. Not chalky or milky, as 70Swingerguy said. I'll update , but it'll be while. He's recovering from Tunnel Carpal. Oh, I tried to get a picture again, but all I have is my cell phone, and it won't sjhow it. Thanks all!

I doubt this guy did two coats. His work for us had been pretty good for us, up until this. He's always been a bit evasive; tries to talk like a salesman, and is not good at it. Where we live, good craftsmen are hard to find. (That's one reason I do any projects I can.) It is black. (A...

Not an a body, but I don’t know who else to ask. I had the left fender, hood, and roof repainted (color and clear) on our ‘07 Accord back in November of 2020. The guy said don’t wax it for six months because the clear isn’t cured. I waited a while, don’t know if it was six months. Now, the roof...

I know nothing about its value, but you guys need to read the C/L ad that is linked in post #1. It answers some of your questions. I was good friends with a guy who knew Clayton. I always got the impression that Clayton was just a regular working stiff like most of us; and he got himself a...

I was brought up on V8's with rear wheel drive. My first real car was a 70 Challenger R/T, 383, 4spd, 3.91's with no PS, PB, or anything (in 78, 79 or so). With L60's, a hi rise Edelbrock and an AFB, it ran 14.40's at about 96. I was ready to buy my first (and only, as it turns out) new car...

I like those aspects, too. But if they don't work, they're no help. Unfortunately, it would be expensive to test them. I may get a couple of those, too. I'm guessing you can tell when/if they're expired, or just plain no good anymore. I'll have to see. Edit: The site says as long as it is...

The link in post #1 has a Jay Leno video. The guy he interviews says the Element doesn't displace oxygen and it's not toxic. He doesn't use it on a fire in the Jay Leno vid. Hmmmm. It sure doesn't appear to work very well in the video in post #14. Years ago, my partner was driving through the...
