    Big Block Valve Cover Pics Thread?

    I picked these up on CL just before the Holidays. Thought they may have been one of Leanna's work as the seller was unsure of origin. For the price of $100 for NOS covers, I was ok with painted.

    Hardwood floor questions

    I'd be curious to the material, grade and moisture content at $1. add a subfloor, let it acclimate, and install. Depending on the property and your time/$ to invest, either sand and poly or just poly 3-4 coats. Hardwoods are ok in the kitchen, just have to be aware of higher traffic areas ( in...

    Fuel stench in garage?

    Just installed the Vapor Trapper on my other vehicle (75 Wagoneer) that had the charcoal can long gone. 2 Vent lines into the back cargo area attaching to a rollover valve, and then the vent line stopped under the vehicle around the rear axle. If I filled up past 3/4 tank or had some slosh from...

    WTB WTB- Front lower bumper valance 67 Charger

    yes- it would be the steel piece behind the bumper and between radiator on bottom edge. Assuming there was such a part- it certainly looks as if there was something there!

    Header clearance for fuel hose

    To chime in here with a slightly different, but similar question: How close is too close for the brake lines against TTi headers? My new Wilwood Master Cylinder has the brake lines coming out of the left side (closest to engine), and then runs downward into chassis/frame area. I'd say the...

    Right Hand Drive 1967 Dodge Charger

    The owner who did the majority of the work resides in RI and attempted to buy it back in January- never heard back from seller. When I sent the CL ad to him, he stated- still has my Triumph water bottle on it! He sold it pre Carlisle ( @2005) to buy a house. It was 383 RHD built in CA. He put in...

    Selling Tips Needed - Test Drive or Not?

    First Car Purchase Experience- 67 Fairlane on CL and ad stated no pilots, no young drivers. He took me for a rip down some back roads and then on to 95 in CT, saw the big smile on my face and knew I was not going to negotiate. Drove right on the trailer. Sold that about 2 years later without a...

    There is a restored/rebuilt unit from Mr Heaterbox (?) on Facebook - on the 67 B Body pages -Search 66-67 Charger Freaks. No conection. Fwiw- i had mine rebuilt and would not do again. Seems that the replacement units are as good and can be had for less.

    Strange 60 Gear & Vendor Selection

    Time to think about rear ends. :carrot: As the build progresses, i dont believe the stock rear end will hold up and it would be nice to further wake up the vehicle with a better gear set. Subject in question is a 67 charger w 496. On order is a Tremec 5 speed- about to be shipped- i am...

    An interesting 67 Charger

    This conversion was not performed in NZ but here in America prior to shipment. I just confirmed with prior owner of vehicle who sold it 25 years back to buy a house. He noted the Triumph washer bottle that he installed and still has the other NZ license plate in his basement. Small world!

    I thought I knew pretty much everything about 60's muscle. I guess not. 1967 Ford Fairlane 500 427. 425hp.

    Years ago, I Purchased a 67 Fairlane Convertible in Wimbledon White and Black Interior. Looked all stock and just like your grandpa would drive. Until you turned the key- Stroked 460 w C9 heads and c6 transmission and more. Sold it a few years later and still regret that- but it introduced me to...

    Gearing and Rear Discussion TKX

    Appreciate ALL of these responses and discussion of different real world experiences. My guess is that the first year will be a bit of a break in period for everything, so may wait until next winter for a swap.

    Gearing and Rear Discussion TKX

    As the build continues along with my insomnia, my attention is now about the current rear end set up and whether it should change and even be upgraded. Project Norma Jean is a 67 Charger with 383 stroked to 496 with TF240 heads and TF Roller cam(.600 lift). Tire size is 26", and have selected...
