    Petaluma Ca ‘70 GTX??

    Another tidbit about the car. When I got it, there was no carpet in it, but there was a chunk of orange(?) shag sandwiched between the gas pedal and the floor. I imagine that was in there since the 70s?? Travis..

    Petaluma Ca ‘70 GTX??

    Very cool, it sounds like it took some serious networking to get this done. I very much appreciate it. In the pm I sent you was the last of my vin. If the guy thinks he may have the block, and you have the ability to have him check, it may be something to consider. If you talk to any of these...

    Petaluma Ca ‘70 GTX??

    I’m here, I’m here!!! You say he might have the original block? Interesting. I assume that’s the only pic he had? I can’t tell if it has a front plate. Is this a phone pic of a picture? Is there a clearer version? I’m curious if this is actually my car, it looks like it was pretty nice. The...

    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..
