Yesterday was a perfect windows down drive day, as it was overcast all day.

This 72/318/904 Dart is very nearly completely stock, and I’m having a hard time keeping my hands off it. It’s so tempting to do a 4 barrel, dual exhaust, headers, subframe connectors and custom wheels. No no no, keep your frikin hands off dummy. My more sensible inner voice keeps me from it.

Today’s car guys have tons of resources that we didn’t have back then. AND the parts and pieces we did get were of good quality. Nowadays we can get about anything online, but a lot of it is just expensive garbage. Kinda miss the old days where we scrounged around for something that would work...

Pretty much all my life if I wanted something it showed up before long. Doesn’t work with money though, I have tried. So we had a motorhome trailer, dirt bikes and such for the kids and I and we used to go for 2-5 day camping and riding. Wife used to ride but gave it up. Kids grew up, got jobs...

I couldn’t even imagine living in a place like this. 101 at my place today at 5000 feet.

A property in a highly desirable location in wine country California. Locals are willing to make a competitive offer and avoid a possible commercial buyer coming in. Through an agent the final closing costs could be in the 50k range all said and done. Considering the desirability of the...

Hope you have good headphones.:D

I think we found Barbie’s Barracuda. We had a row of Mopars.

So the other day I mentioned being bored, so I decided to go to the local Pick a Part just to see if there was anything interesting. When I pulled into the parking lot some guys big *** dog ran over and jumped up on my drivers door and stuck his head in my window. I friggin lost it. Not the end...

I have been getting in the habit of driving the Dart to a different destination each weekend. One day (doesn’t matter which) and take off for the day. Possible destinations are getting shorter these days since I have been to most of them within 200 miles. Kind of thinking ghost towns as...

Nothing but bars around here, and I don’t drink or even enjoy being around drunk people. There are a few night time car get togethers in Phoenix, but that is an hour and a half drive one way. I like driving at night on lit multi lane freeways with the windows down, but nothing like that around...

My current head unit is playing not so funny games. One day I noticed a battery drain over the course of 2-3 days and found that the memory function of the unit was causing it. The memory wire of the unit is supposed to be connected to full time 12v, but it was bleeding power over to the head...

Gotta take this off, so I can remove that, and be able to fix something that is actually the problem. That and it seems like every fastener takes a different tool. Good machines if you don’t have to work on em.

Sitting out front with my after breakfast coffee watching the neighbor down the street make dozens of tries at backing a trailer into his driveway. Cars backed up waiting for him to get out of the way. Could end up being his fourth DUI if the right car comes along. Jees, I need to go find...

Warning about Speedmaster79, sold by Summit Racing.(and probably others) This guy seems to be mostly Ford, but I don’t think it matters. What I think really matters is that Summit Racing sells it. A Chinese rip off with the actual US builders name on it.

This Daytona pickup belongs to a friend. That so sucks.

One of my friends has a Fairly new Daytona pickup, and an ebay water pump shattered doing over $1000 in damage. That so sucks.

As some of you know, until recently I was an avid dirt biker. I rode a 500cc four stroke Honda, and this is a trail I have ridden many times. About 8 min in will give you a good idea of what this trail is really like. One of my favorites, and it definitely keeps you in shape. Click on “watch on...

Without the ad blocker the phone screen is just trashed. And don’t bother telling me to go gold to solve it. Paying to not have the screen all F’d up rubs me the wrong way. And I get it. Nobody cares.

And that is for the mid grade blades. They are for my Son’s 99 grand prix. (Nothing special about them)

So my neighbor has an early 80’s Olds that when he found out I have a welder asked if I would put hydraulics on his car for him. I told him it was way more complicated and involved than he thought it was, and I really didn’t have the time or resources for such a project. (Actually I really...

This is a drive I took just to get out for a relaxing cruise. Pine forest to the desert. Note how engine drone goes away pretty much completely in overdrive.

Still 20+ miles off shore. 40 foot waves. 50mph winds. 15 foot aluminum boat. Fuel tank floating on the water thats blowing in with every wave. A true story about a small piece of one of my previous lives. (I’ve had a few) Thinking to maybe make some video stories about some of my past. All...

One of my friends used to be a Chrysler employee, and one of his jobs there was quality control and testing. The pic below is him driving the truck with the then new Cummins. This current test involved him driving this truck with the test motor up and down a mountain dirt road with a simulated...

This place in Utah has some Mopars for sale as mostly projects he says for MATS in Vegas. I have no affiliation, and just posting the info.

How do you go about deciding on merch to buy? Do you prefer the bigger YouTube channels that have huge facilities and spend hundreds of thousands on projects? Or are you more likely to purchase from the smaller guy in a home garage or small shop just getting by as best they can? I have been...

Back when I was racing it was the driver that handled all the functions of the car. The driver determined how, when and how much power was advantageous. If the car over wheelied the driver did what was needed to mitigate that next time. Same with blowing the tires off. The driver dealt with and...

Here recently I decided to check out some wireless audio accessories for use with my GoPro 8. I read and watched hours of info and reviews. I decided to try the Moman C1X, so I ordered one. Not bad at less than 100 bucks for a system with 2 wireless mics, 2 wired that plug into the receiver and...

Seems to me this dude did about everything he could to make his cam break in fail.
