    Slot mags are not god awful wheels. The white paint makes it look like a circus wagon. Travis..

    Pics from Back in the Day

    Back around ‘85 or so, my dad had a chance to buy a purple 70 RR out of the tow yard where he worked. It had a painted on gold strobe stripe that went over the roof and down the c-piller and top side of the quarter panel to the end of the trunk above the tail lights. I was lobbying hard for him...

    L-Code vs. K-Code 440

    The big difference and what makes some of those c-body hp manifolds hard to find is the outlet size. Most that you find are the 383 version with the smaller 2 1/4” size, but the 440 hp cars got the 2 1/2” outlet version. I have a set of the 2 1/2” outlets to swap on to my 66 300. Travis..

    1968 Coronet with a wing.......

    I am also not a fan of the wings, but screw you guys, I love the 70 rapid transit road runner. Best spoiler imo is the recessed unit on the hurst 300. I’m a fan of gurney flap/wicker bill type race car things myself. Oh yeah, this thread is oooollllllldddddd. Travis..

    Rich kid cars.

    I graduated from a rural school just south of Sacramento in ‘90. The one rich kid had a new bmw 2 door 318 I think it was. Other kids had their parents or grand parents hand me down mid size sedans. There were about 6 kids with various 65-68 Mustang coupes, half of which were very...

    Conventional clutch guys - where do you keep the release point in your pedal?

    When I was daily driving my 67 barracuda with 4 speed, I removed the over center spring and had the spring from the fork to the bell in place. Stock b&b type clutch. It was very firm to push, but very linear action. I like to have engagement a couple inches off of the floor. When I release the...

    Have you tried using ChatGPT ?

    Hey Greg. If you want to nascar up your charger temporarily, get magnetic sign material to put the stickers on and cut them out. You’ll be able to use as many or as few as you want depending on the occasion, or just take them off when you want your regular look back. Travis..

    1967 r/t

    Here’s what my brother texted me; “Mine had copper kick panels. The dash paint is a mystery. Don’t know what Eddy(guy who body worked it)sprayed it with (it’s factory style suede paint in dark brown metallic). Console I think was brown with brown carpet. I ended up vinyl dyeing the console kick...

    1967 r/t

    I’m pretty sure his console is brown also. I have a message in to him to see what is brown and what is copper. His car is a ‘vert, so no headliner color. Travis..

    1967 r/t

    Did you figure out your interior colors? My brother has a 67 coronet 500 with copper interior. I can ask him about it. I think his kick panels and carpet are both dark brown though. He was sent a saddle carpet by mistake when he ordered his interior, they then sent him out a brown one. Travis..

    Never assume someone knows what they’re doing

    Yeah, it’s bad. I find that people have no idea how tight things need to be. I have been into jeeping for 25+ years (dirt roads to the Rubicon trail) and it blows my mind how many people have seriously important pieces parts come loose or fall off of their vehicles. I can’t think of a time that...

    Stellantis Brings The HEMI Back !!

    I’m pretty sure the GM fix is heavier oil. From 0-20 to 0-40 or something like that. Unless of course you’ve ejected a rod, then it’s a new engine with the different oil. Travis..
