I have two Ford cars I might want to sell. One is a runner, body/paint done, a driver. The other has body/paint done, fresh engine, trans, a roller that needs finished. I have never had any experience with BAT. Anyone with real world experience with BAT??
I had a guy pm me about my 75 AMC Hornet. Asked if I had sold it? and as it is listed on FB Marketplace and the FB AMC group sites. He did send a link to a site called Bangshift.com. I have pm them but not heard back. Seems like the guys at Bangshift wrote an article about MY Hornet with...
The older I get, the less of a purist I am. Never was that pure anyway.
Slap me sill, but I have wanted a 70-2 Swinger (love the lighted back bumper! why? dunno!) project but like most Mopar projects in Tx. overpriced junk. But the 73 (or is it 74?) Swingers with the BIG back bumper etc can...
OK so we have had pretty bad inflation now for the last 2 1/2 years, but everytime I have to buy anything at the friggin "auto part store" now days, no matter whose name is on the door, IT is Rape! Crazy!
Yea I buy ALL I can at Rock or anywhere else but he local parts emporium!
Example: OK...
We have a Red Heeler, that gets worse about trying to grab a tires as we leave.. New tire on the little Tacoma pickup 6 months ago and now we have a slow leak on a couple of them, this AM one was almost flat. Ruined tires I guess! I check them out close, and every darn ones have what looks...
Most all know I've been a Mopar guy decades and etc. AND I value good FABO opinions. So here is the question.
I have had a bunch of 70-2 Dusters, and a few 73-6 Dusters. A 75 I admit I am getting toward the end of my car road I still enjoy the builds, wife knows I can bring them back from the...
The stepson traded off is Dodge Ram with the eco diesel a few years ago becasue the dealership never old find the occasional colliant leak, and got a 2019 or 20 Nissan 3/4 ton with the Cummins. AC goes out other day with about 120,000 mi. Takes it to the Nissan dealer and they find a leak in...
64 More door Bel 318 poly PB got it in a trade. Traded a $500 77 Volare wagon for it. I got the wagon for the perfect grill and switched that in my 76 RR I later sold. I digress. Well the Bel runs good, had new AMD full pans, I added new windshield and back glass, tires, buckets, etc. etc...
Like many on here, I am getting long in the tooth, that refers to the horse getting old as per what his teeth does. I have made it to 74, and even with a few close calls. Most of my friends and relatives never made 60.
Close calls? I won't list them all. The first was getting hit head on...
I ain't complaining, at 74 I have fewer medical issues than many and I have outlived so many classmates, friends, and 3 or 4 cousins. But I get down and can hardly get back up. I've been hit head on by a 80 mph drunk, bucked off with broke vertebrae and neck, rode hard and put up way too wet...
THIS is NOT a parts wanted thread mods!!! I am simply networking to see who on FABO is into these and maybe has connections with parts I might need. I have always done my best asking friends if they know a friend that knows a friend!! But... I will place a Wanted ad in that spot!!! Looking...
I have a good 1/2 compact air tool for heavy duty, just want something for light use taking stuff apart and back together.
I am thinking $100-$150??
I don't want junk but at my age it may not need to last that long!!!! lol
Don't read IF too long. Move along!!
It started back in the 80s' and it was fun. Cheap good old used and abused Mopars everywhere. Us old guys were there. Chevy and Ford guys didn't want them. Cars everywhere, all needs work, and dirt cheap. You found cars thru your buds and friends...
I'm not trying to come up with another "whats it worth" appraisal thread! but........I have been kicking around some ideas for my latest project. An AMC is high on list.
But I've found a 75 Dart 318 running/driving project. Rough around the edges for me, but it would be a great find...
I have been thinking of going on the hunt for a 68-74 Javelin or AMX project. I realize it is a way smaller world that even Moparland, but I admit I am somewhat tired of overpriced Mopar projects, and I am not even talking of second gen Chargers or any Roadrunner! Even every Duster project I...
Here goes. This old guy... me, 73, thinks he wants a fun V8 American model, (NO foreign stuff), any US brand, that is depreciated out and IF I find a good example, will be a dependable and fun car for the wife and I to use a couple times a week. Fun mean enough power and take corners. She...
I have a car her in Tx that I am selling to guy i Ohio. It is a bill of sale deal. I can get a bonded Tx title but he is coming down on his vacation in 2 weeks and Tx does not work that fast!!
He is checking into it on his end but an any OHIO guys tell me how much trouble it is for OH...
Looks like when a member gets his Mopar car for sale..... SOLD< SOLD< SOLD.... he should man up and tell what he got. That is what is know as a comparable sale, others can use when buying/selling/ I ask, am I wrong?
Going on some 64 B bodies but I am thinking most all models in the 60/s have same socket. I have never had much luck soaking them with anything to get them usuable. Anyone know a part number for any generic socket or even where to get something that will work?
I sell my two Volare's, have some extra parts to sell off. Find buyer for7 WOM in Ca. I box it with two pieces if cardboard, just the size of the stuff. Take it to PO for a shipping quote. She weighs, she measures, and yep $28. Cool. So the guy sends me the $ paypal. I also get hit...
I have been on this idea now for more than a few years. After countless 60's, 70's Mopars, I have bought (yes over the phone) a 2 door 49 Dodge survivor,sorta of. Non runner,but been garage kept all it life. Meeting the seller next monday, 12 hr. trip. Was owned by his deceased 90 odd year...
I admit I have never had this problem before, but this 64 B body ply. post car has sat outside here in sorta dryish Texas for the last 40 years. I gotthe vent wind open, the window meanism is rusted and can;t rill down the glass. Doors are unlocked, I can move the inside door handle,, the...
