    Weird dreams.....let's see some of yours!

    I dream a lot and have had some bazaar ones over the years. I have never uncovered a Russian plot or took anybody out that I remember. Dreams can be disturbing though. Many of mine had to do with being at work, even long after I retired. I've had a couple presidents show up in my dreams, which...

    Jimacuda passed away Sept 30th

    So sorry to hear that, and at such a young age. We went to the Pavilion a few times when our kids lived in Scottsdale. Talked to most of the Mopar guys there, so don't know if I might have met him. Prayers for Jim's family and friends.

    Stuff I do while Truckin

    We really appreciate your photos and travelogue. We have visited Arlington and the VN Wall several times. We were at Arlington for the burial of my uncles remains in the early nineties. He was my Dad's youngest brother, was in the 82nd Airborne in WWII and was killed in Operation Market...

    This is a gorgeous 68 GTS, that IMHO checks all the boxes. Don't roast Jay for saying "rock crusher" LOL. Good episode from Jay Leno's Garage.

    What Is The Best Car You've Ever Rode In On The Street?

    My buddies 70 Hemi Cuda back in 1970. Hemi, 4spd, shaker hood. In-Violet with white vinyl top, white bucket seat interior and white hemi hockey stripes. I have looked everywhere and have never seen another one exactly like it. I was home on leave before going to VN, and he let me behind the...

    Prayer request

    So sorry to hear this. I just saw it, and am praying.

    What is it? Clearly not Mopar...

    That seems like a pretty good guess. What you say makes a lot of sense, but of course I know nothing about the subject you presented. And you are correct, it shows no signs of wear, just some signs of aging.

    What is it? Clearly not Mopar...

    I am beginning to wonder if my Dad knew what it is. Neither of my brothers had a clue either. Guess I won't get an answer to that anytime soon, Lol.

    Drag racer Tom Hoover, RIP at 81

    Really saddened to hear that. What a tremendous Mopar guru. Saw Tom at Carlisle quite a few years ago. The guy was a genius, and very down to earth. RIP Tom Hoover.

    Well, my uncle (Dad's brother) owned a marina back in the 50's and 60's, so yeah, maybe.

    He was a fan of one-lungers as he called them, one cylinder engines.

    What is it? Clearly not Mopar...

    Dad was a Raw Materials Inspector for Bendix/Purolator in Elmira, NY. He loved guns and hunting, DIY of all kinds, cars (Mopars), and he and Mom traveled the country in their retirement, visiting gold mines, silver, copper mines, ghost towns and they were rock hounds. He was a man of many...

    GIANT pinion angle shims. :rofl:

    What is it? Clearly not Mopar...

    Yeah, paper weight, LOL. Cleaning out the garage is overwhelming. Dad was a depression survivor, so he threw nothing away. A lot of great memories, but a ton of "stuff."

    What is it? Clearly not Mopar...

    While attempting to clean out my Dad's garage in settling my parents estate, I found this. I have no clue what it is, but my Dad was a major collector. It appears to be brass, and it is large, and "heavy." I would not want to drop it on my toes. FABO members seem to know everything.

    2 Separate Blowouts on RV Yesterday. Learned Important Lesson on Tires

    Again, I am no tire expert, but don't think I would worry about that. When I worked at a dealership in the early 2,000's, we stored customers winter/summer tires when they swapped them out. I do remember we put them in "tire bags." Just big plastic bags. Garbage bags would work if you so chose...

    2 Separate Blowouts on RV Yesterday. Learned Important Lesson on Tires

    "Tires need to run." Supposedly tires literally need exercise, but sitting around, they deteriorate much quicker. As the story goes, the constant flexing of the material keeps the oils activated throughout the tire and it lasts longer. I'm no tire expert, but that's the way I heard it, and I'm...
