Today I pulled(with the help of my buddy, his family and some of their heavy equipment) this 76 club cab adventurer SE out of the barn where it sat for 41 years! Its 440 powered, fairly loaded with 56k original miles and 100% original! I can wait to get this thing running and driving. Hope...

i have this ratty 340 swinger that is F8 green. As you can tell, there isn't much left of the original paint. Have any of you guys used the 2017 challenger F8 green in the rattle cans from the dealership to touch up? I wouldn't be trying to cover all the spots. Just hit the bare metal parts...

I was in Oklahoma last week cleaning out some junk in my new shop. Previous owner was a car guy. He had a six pack challenger that he bought new up until about 5 years ago. Anyhow, he left me a few crappy work benches and this tach was in one of the drawers. Looks like it could have been a...

So, my move back to Oklahoma next spring is quickly becoming a reality and I am figuring out what to move back with me. I have one car that I'm on the fence on what I should do with. I am painfully aware that selling a car apart is a money losing proposition but I really don't think it will...

I took the belvedere out tonight so my god daughters could watch me make a pass. I was thinking this would be my last time out there as it was scheduled to close for good on January 31st. While in the staging lanes the announcement was made that a new contract had been signed and the whole...

Scored this little d100 for a song. Hadn't been started in over a year. Fired up on three cranks with just a little squirt of fuel in the carb. Few dents, no rust, runs and drives but electrical needs help. 318/727. I love this thing.

So, I am a dipstick install away from firing my new 440 in the car. Of course, it's too tight(repop tube). The last thing I want to do is crack it obviously. I sanded the damn thing for an eternity today. Still super tight. I was just reading about people putting the tube in the freezer...

i have a little WWYD scenario for you guys. Kinda long. I had my 440 rebuilt by a shop I've used before. When I dropped it off four months ago, I was told it would take 6 weeks. I was also told that the owner(whose name is on the business) had sold the shop to his employee whom I knew from...

I was curious if anyone has ever swapped a 72-80 short bed for a same era short stepside bed? I have a chance to get a clean 73 short box dodge but have always wanted the same truck in a stepside. Is this a direct swap? Thanks guys!

hey guys, a buddy of mine asked me to help him with his 98 dodge van with a 360. It has 110,000 miles. It needed a downstream oxygen sensor as the "check engine" light was on. I replaced it with a Bosch unit and reset the code reader. The check engine light then stayed off. Now, everything...

After trying to buy this 340 swinger for a couple of years a friend of mine finally relented and sold me this f8 340, 4-speed swinger that he wasn't going to get to. I am super psyched!! Aside from the hood the body panels are original. Had a lower quarter repair and that's it for rust...

So I just bought a 68 dart that is all original. The car was last registered in Arizona. It seems that the state of kalifornia is asking me to show TWO locations on the car that show the vin. The dash is obviously the first but the fender tag, radiator support and trunk lip all have the...

So I am going to try and recreate my favorite high school car(1970 dart 340 four speed) and since I'd never sell it and clones don't bother me, I was thinking of maybe doing a clone. I have noticed that 71 darts seem to be a little more common than 70s in my area, so I was wondering what the...

I was just wondering if anyone has bought one of the 69 barracuda tail panels that metro parts has repopped? I pre-ordered one in early december w/ the promise from them that I would see it early january. So I call a couple of weeks ago and they tell me any day I should see it. Then I call...

Can any of you guys recommend a good place to send my a body rallye dash for rechroming. I've heard some horror stories about mr. g's. Never sent a dash out to be done. Also, what could I expect to pay. Thanks in advance, hosehead.:glasses7:

Anyone have a good plastic epoxy to fix a cracked plastic grille? I have a 69 barracuda that has some cracks in the grille and tonight I did a test on the back of it w/ super glue and it did that plastic "melting" thing. What have you used to repair cracks that doesn't damage the plastic...
