I think the only appropriate way to respond is by posting pics of as many steel wheel dork dish cars as we can until a roof is put back on that Charger! :lol:

:eek::eek::eek:

First poke around and see how extensive the rust is. It's always more widespread underneath than is visible. That will tell you if you can get a way with patching things with sheetmetal or should find some replacement rails.

It's not super common, but just like in your fridge the stuff that gets put in first ends up in the back and sometimes gets overlooked and not used until later.

Car is so fast that the numbers are slowly sliding off the tag.

I think the hints are in the close up pics. It looks good from 20 feet, but there are lots of little items like paint chips, cracked steering wheel, dinged up aluminum and stainless rocker and tail trim, emblem details, filthy buddy set, etc. I would bet you'd see a lot more in person. Column...

Use a scissor jack that can be found from many, many cars in the wrecking yard. Put it under the shock plate if your tires are skinny enough, and under the front spring hanger if not. They are cheap, light, and much safer than the original bumper jack.

The full new pads are quite expensive, so if you can find a used old pad to put your cap on... that would be the way to go.

As I mentioned before, air shocks can be set up in different ways. You just have to put air in and out and see what happens. While air shocks typically last a long time, they can wear out or blow air lines.... so if they are older you may be due for new shocks. You'll find out soon enough as you...

These let air in AND out just like a bicycle tire valve stem. Let air out by pushing in the pin in the middle, put air in using a bicycle pump or compressor. I can't see the whole system, so you just need to put air in and out and see what happens to the height on wither side or both. Don't...

Argh. When he announced his retirement a couple years ago I was bummed. I did not know he was ill. This band was soooo much better than their two songs that got American air play.

Get under the car and follow the air lines from the shocks. Some are on one line and some set ups have a line for each shock. If they are on the same line, there is no way to adjust the pressure from side to side.

Yup, ...though Buddy's career and impact were so short I might supplant him with Jerry Lee or Orbison. Rock n Roll by most definitions is the earliest form of Rock music, mostly seen as confined to the 50's. Albeit, arguments have been made for a handful of songs in the 40's being the basis of...

"One last show". Promise made. Promise kept. A legend for sure. Glad I was able to catch both Sabbath and Ozzy (solo) live a few times. The music of your life is very memorable. RIP

I wasn't into them much until I decided that I needed one :lol: Someone gave me a Ford 1500 that had not run in years. I pulled it out of a field and had it up and running the same day. Just a bad battery cable, incorrectly wired new start switch, and brake adjustment needed to make it...

I have mine mounted on top of the driveshaft tunnel in the back seat area. It's the most central area to the engine bay, drivers area, and fuel cell, and makes routing of the firing system pretty easy to set up. By putting it on top of the tunnel, if I need to get into the back seat area...

This "new finding"comes up every couple of years. Been using them every single day for this purpose for half a century.

These quick lube places hire the least of the least qualified and least experienced. You pay for their training.... one way or another..... or even both ways.

Great car. I have pondered building a wasteland-type car from a 3rd gen for years but never get to it. How DID you do the fender flares? <<<edit>>> never mind.. I see it re-reading the thread. <<<edit>>> Check out Wasteland All The Cars group on Facebook if you get a chance.

Well, it was a joke about how both the Mad Max car went from shiny to smashed and dirty, and Max from sturdy and strong to "look at yourself, you're a mess".... (as in parking in the handicapped spot). I guess that is the type of comment you get from someone who has seen the Road Warrior 127...
