    Is this the new normal? What could be perceived junk asking at premium prices.

    Speculators have taken over the hobby and turned it into a business. Money ruins everything.

    Lowering front leaf spring location.

    Hi, Steve! I don't know if you remedied this or not. When I owned that car, I knew for a fact the rear springs had sagged, badly. I'd recommend re-arching them or replacing them. As it was only a 318 car from the factory, it doesn't have the heavier springs like the 440, Hemi or Track Pak cars...

    69 Bench Seat track issues. Help please.

    The wire is in place and functioning properly. When at rest, there is no tension on the wire. Thanks for the response.

    69 Bench Seat track issues. Help please.

    I recently had the seats recovered in my 69 Road Runner. The passenger side of the bench seat won't lock into place, but the driver side locks solidly. Has anyone had a similar issue? It seems like the latch return spring on the passenger side has tension, but not enough to register the lock...

    1400 mile round trip in a ratty Road Runner

    I'm on vacation this week, so I loaded up Gladys (my 69 Road Runner) with a tool box and a spare tire and set off to Kentucky and Tennessee to hang out with Bryan McTaggart from Bangshift.com and Uncle Tony himself. Man, I had a blast!

    Not getting a good vibe

    Just on a hunch... and it's only a hunch.... Check your firing order on the spark plug wires. I had a car do this and #5 and #7 were crossed up. Shook the bejeezus out of the car.

    Cam Manufacturers?

    Way back in 1989, I built the 440 for my 1969 Road Runner when I worked at a local machine shop. Last year, unfortunately, two lobes got wiped off the old MP .484/284 camshaft.... So, it's time to go through the engine, clean out the nasties, install new bearings and, most importantly, install a...

    Fuel tank for 68 Satellite wagon?

    Hey, all. It's been quite some time since I've posted, but I've been busy working on my junk. I am looking for a new replacement fuel tank for my 1968 Satellite wagon. I've been told a tank from a 66-67 B-body will work, and I'm almost sure I read it here, but I can't find the thread/post...

    Hey, CornpatchMO....

    Good to hear! The wagon is still in the garage... About the only thing new on it is another coat of dust. I've been driving the Road Runner, weather permitting, but with my new job, I'm a bit strapped for free time. Waiting on warmer weather.... Ron
