Disney/Discovery f**ks up another great channel. I've been watching Roadkill and the other associated shows since they first started streaming on youtube 12 years ago. Great business model Disney. Buy great content then kill it with gross mismanagement. 'Roadkill' Is Finished as MotorTrend...

Just got back from the only driveshaft shop left in the Lower NY, upper NJ area. Needed to get my driveshaft shortened a bit for the new S60 rear. Shop gets GREAT reviews and, let's face it, they're the only game in town. Just under $300 to lose 1 1/8" Whole damn driveshaft was only $500 new...

WARNING! Rant on here! ok, Maybe I'm just an old fart with unrealistic expectations, but here it goes.... On Tuesday I order over $500 worth of parts. The Vendor says they have them in stock so I send the $$ via PayPal (not friends and family). The Vendor has a good reputation this board so I...

I took The Beast out for a drive on this sunny spring day. Shifting out of first and into second under moderate acceleration I feel a pop in the shifter followed by the sound of something dragging on the road. I immediately slow down and pull to the shoulder and the car hops a bit and I come to...

So, I'm driving through town to a buddies house in my 2015 RAM when I see police lights behind me. I assume they're going to another scene as I haven't been pulled over in 30 years and I can't think of a thing I was doing wrong. I pull onto a side street to get out of the way and dang it it all...

Apologies if this belongs to someone here.....but come on!! 1969 Dodge Charger

Hi, my name is Petey, and I have a problem....... My wife is going to kill me and several of you might too.... I bought a dune buggy. It's a Kellison Sunpiper pickup. It's as far from a Mopar as you can get but I NEEDED it The body work on this thing is near flawless. The metal flake in the...

I just received my new QA1 upper A arms for "The Beast" (71 Charger) Just seeing if there are any gottcha's on this job. It seems pretty straight forward as I rebuilt the entire front suspension when I rebuilt the car 3 years ago Here's my plan: support the lower control arm or unload the...

Hey folks, I'm wanting to get my Charger on a chassis dyno for some tuning. I found one or 2 but they specialize in tuner cars with very limited carburetor/muscle car experience. I'm in Orange County, NY (10918). If anyone knows of a dyno within an hour of me I'd appreciate it thanks

Hi all, I just wanted to remind everyone to always open new parts when you get them. I recently made a significant purchase (at least it was significant to me) when they had a sale going on. Saved me about $100 bucks which made me happy :bananadance::lol: I'm not quite ready to put this new...

Smoked a full packer brisket this weekend. Came out amazing!!!

Hey folks, I have the Motive products power bleeder and love it! Only issue was trying to use it on my Wilwood master. The adapter Motive recommends didn't work very well. It leaked like crazy regardless on the number of clamps I used. I found on YouTube a guy that made a custom adapter...

Hey all, Putting a line lock on my 71. I'd like to mount the button on my steering wheel which is a stock 3 spoke. I bought the small momentary button from Jegs and I'm trying to figure a way to mount it to the steering wheel for racing but be removable. I'm going to use a 2 pin connector so...

Hi All, I want to install the Wilwood 12" brake package on my Charger (part# 140-15648D). I'm currently running 15" Cragar D window wheels and the, according to Wilwoods data sheet, they won't fit inside the wheel. I'd like to run 15" steel rims of some sort but I can't seem to find any that...

Hi guys, I've been wanting to take my Charger down the 1/4 and I'm prepping over the winter to do just that at Island Dragway in NJ this spring. I know grip is my biggest enemy after my latest build so I need to know what is a good tire for the strip (not street). Car is a 512 with 500-550HP...

Merry Christmas All!! Need some advice on the best places to post a car for sale. I'm trying to sell my 07 Charger R/T and I'm not having much luck. I listed it on both Craigslist and Facebook Market place and haven't had any interest. I priced the car lower than book value but it has high...

Why is it every time I take The Beast out of the garage for a little exercise, I get the person who loves to drive 5 to 10 mph UNDER the speed limit in front of me. Now I understand there's a speed limit and going over it is technically illegal, but it's pretty normal around here to be 5 to 10...

Hi All, Wondering if I'm being too nice and I'm going to get screwed. Back in November of last year I ordered, and paid for, a custom hydroboost setup for my 71 Charger. The vendor came highly recommended from several members here. The vendor said that there was a lead time of 90 days. No...

This guy may be smoking his socks here: https://longisland.craigslist.org/cto/d/hicksville-1968-corvette/7441630199.html

Hi all, I'm going through all my parts and referbing what I need, ordering what I don't have for my 71 Charger. The shields for the gas tank vapor canister that goes in the drivers rear wheel well are both pretty shot. I've found reference to the one that attaches to the canister itself as...
