Just a fast Happy Holidays to all. I've been staying away from most message boards as we've been busy with the house and, to be honest.... I just didn't have the desire or time for this. There are a lot of members I'd like to apologize to for snubbing the site. Sorry.... We moved into our house...

Last Sunday we moved into the house. We're still searching for stuff & where to put it, but we're in. While we were moving last week we spotted this little get together a few blocks from me. Don't stare into the Iguana's eyes.... This Magnum was beautiful. Granted, I'm not going to be...

Any advice on do's/don't's when using a clay bar, or is it idiot resistant? I need to do it to my car. Sooner than later..... :angry7:

Just thought I'd post a quick update. Amy & me had no summer this year. We spent every free minute working on the house. We've owned it for 6 yrs. and had held onto it as an investment. Being the housing market sucks, we decided to move out of our small Co-Op apartment and into the house. The...

Yeah.... it's becoming that. Every %$#@#$% thing I touch turns into another $200 detour. And I thought the `Cuda was a project! We had planned on moving in this weekend and I'm disappointed to say, *maybe* the end of July. Most likely the beginning of August. And the `Cuda is sitting with a dead...

Delta canceled our flight after we sat there for 3 hours waiting in the airport. We're rescheduled for tomorrow at 7 am. And now Amy is fighting with someone in India about our hotel reservations.This trip is becoming a journey....... not to mention the $50+ we spent on round trip cab fares back...

Your FABO mailbox has gagged and seized up! :toothy10: Please check your AOL account for my e-mail.

Today I got me a package from Tennessee.... Guess what was inside? Once again, our very own Mistress of Metal did a fabulous job of turning crap into jewels. PSC did a great job on my hood latch loop, popper spring, and safety latch, along with my trunk latch loop. Awesome job! The finish is a...

For those of you whom have been involved with home improvement projects know they make car restoration look like model building. A simple task of re-painting window trim evolved into $175 worth of lumber and a tub of plaster to repair holes... The thought of repairing a loose door hinge...

This afternoon Amy & myself followed through with one of the most difficult decisions we've made yet as a couple. Our dog Angel's health had deteriorated to where she had trouble walking, was in-continent, and didn't recognize us anymore. When she started biting at me and Amy we decided to not...

The economy is in the toilet.... I just got done with a decent 5 figure restoration.... and I'm rebuilding my house. So what do I do? I buy MORE Basses!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D Meet the twins. I scored a deal on selling two Basses and on buying two Basses, so we recycled the heard. I sold my 8 string...

I went to see Hellyeah in a SMALL club in Brooklyn last week. Awesome show! Black Water Rising opened and threw down a great set. They're local guys from Brooklyn that are starting to get some visibility through satellite radio. They get played regularly on the Octane channel on Sirius. These...

I just got an e-mail asking basically where the Hell I've been. Easy....House Restoration. Makes rebuilding the Barracuda seem like a Revell model kit. I haven't had the `Cuda out since Easter Sunday and I'm going into withdrawals... Once in a while I have to start it up and back it out of the...

In another thread I mentioned I had some welding done and there were some toys in the shop. He we go.... Aside from not seeing an actual Vega in years (they all disintergrated 20 years ago up here....) this was a sweetie. 383 SBC/4-spd. combo. Very nicely done, not a hack-job. Then there...

Mother Nature just took another dump on us. I know you guys up north are used to this and worst, but down here in the City it's paralyzing. And we were so close to the end of the snow season..... When it reaches my bumpers I call it a day. I'm the proud new owner of a 3 day weekend..... 8)

Happy to report I survived a weekend of complete & total catatonic relaxation. All I needed was a cooler and a catheter and I didn't have to move for 2 entire days.... 1/2 a bottle of Glenlivet and various other methods of altering one's state of being is represented in this disgraceful shot of...

I haven't been on here too often lately except to hit the archives, but I found out that there was an issue with a picture I posted AGES ago that apparently offended some of our membership. Please accept my apologies. I posted that picture quite a while ago, way back when we were a smaller...

I just completed a transaction with FABO'er MoparClown and there was a mix-up that was straightened out immediately. He made it right and that was much appreciated. Nice bezel that should take little work to make really nice. Thanks Doug! 8)

2009 ended for me and my Wife with a ton of problems in our household. Here's the short list, not trying to depress anyone: Just found out my Wife's Dad is having surgery Monday morning for cancer in his lower intestine. He kept it from everyone not to ruin their holidays. My Wife will be...

This sucks.... http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/12/autopsy-scheduled-in-death-of-huntington-drummer-james-owen-sullivan.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+lanowblog+(L.A.+Now) The Rev was up there with Vinny Paul & Dan Carry as one of THE best rock...

Fortunately my area of N.Y. didn't get hit too hard, maybe 7". But me & my Wife were planning on staying indoors anyway. She's on a marathon baking frenzy and she's in heaven. She LOVES to bake, and the Holidays are a good excuse for her to go nuts. I have cookies all over the house.... She's...

I found this over at MoParts and thought I'd share it. Here's the infamous chase scene from Bullitt with a turn-by-turn digital map of the area that was driven on. Cool stuff..... 8) http://www.seero.com/video/Steve_McQueen_3

Yup, my first time I've been stopped by the Police in the Barracuda. I was out at a cruise last night and on my way home I zipped through my neighborhood. I was driving down a major street in Bayside and all of a sudden a marked cruiser came flying out of a side street. I see him in my mirror...

We decided to bring the car out to the show Sunday. With all the crap going on it sounded like a good bit of therapy. It was just over the bridge about 15 minutes from me up in The Bronx and we're glad we made it. Incredible show. Here's a few high-lights from the show: T5 bronze big block 4...

I needed a time out guys, that's why I went off the grid for a while. Sorry to the people whom sent e-mails asking about something I have for sale. At the moment we have a few issues that took priority. Amy just found out that her Brother needs a liver transplant as it has reached a life or...

I found this over at MoParts and thought it was too interesting not to share. http://blog.cardomain.com/2009/09/16/crash-test-1959-chevy-bel-air-vs-2009-chevy-malibu/ The next time your driving some "Heavy Metal" and think you can drive through an Accord because it's in your way, think again....

Anyone notice we quietly acquired our 11,000 th. member? :cheers:

Rick from Laysons posted he wasn't feeling well. Has anyone heard from him and/or know his condition? He's a good guy and I for one am concerned about him.

I stumbled across this on line..... Print them out and create graphics, stripes, logo's, etc. Or try wheels from magazines. Maybe cut and assemble them and finally finish your project! :-D

Yeah, that Belmont Park where they run some kinda famous horse race. They also have a pretty cool car show about 3 times a year. Here's some shots from this morning..... ***WARNING! Mixed car shots! Non-Mopar's included!*** Huge turn out..... Blown 440 `Cuda.... `68 Chargers are probably...
