    71 Charger Reborn

    If you can swing the cost go back to HF or Tractor Supply and buy yourself a Mig Welder (gas is easier than flux core). Not only can you fill those bothersome holes but you can do a ton of other tasks. I agree with you painting your car. Watch some videos, take your time with the prep, possibly...

    Removing oil pan question

    The Trans pan is a much easier undertaking. Before I take on a job like this I go to the closest Quarter ($0.25) Car Wash (the one with the do it yourself spray wands) with some old school car ramps. It is best to do this at night as most owners / operators will not allow you to use ramps to get...

    First time engine rebuild

    I am not an expert but in my limited experience I would: 1) Figure out what you want out of this motor (carb/fuel inj, valve train, comp ratio, electronics, etc). 2) Find a local Machine shop that the local muscle car clubs endorse and have an earnest discussion with them about your...

    Workplace Pranks

    I work in CAD Design. When I still did manual Drafting, we had our own way of messing with newbies or annoying folks. Sending new guys for the "Mylar Stretcher" or telling them to get you a box of "Arrow Heads". When we moved to CAD, tricks for the annoying folks were to switch the mouse speed...

    The world around me today...

    1 Wild RT When I was when 15-19 I was constantly harassed by the local PD. Why? Because I was a long haired punk, who drove a primered 70 Roadrunner, which had different tires in the back (60's on Cragers) than the front (70's on black rims). The exhaust was loud, the stereo was loud, I was out...
