I suggest that you rename this thread.... "Stuff we found in the shed". This would be entertaining to read that stuff that others stumbled upon while looking for other things. I could contribute..... For the past several days, I've looked ALL over for the turn signals and headlight bezels for...

Yeah, and every one of them would look better with no hat at all instead of the dork cap. Except Clooney...that jerkoff looks stupid no matter what he is wearing.

LAKE SUPERIOR, MI - It was almost 50 years ago that the Edmund Fitzgerald was being loaded with 26,000 tons of iron ore, prepped for what would become her doomed final voyage. Once the largest ship on the Great Lakes, the 729-foot Fitzgerald left Superior, Wis. at 2:15 p.m. on Nov. 9, 1975...

Can you clock the line clockwise to allow the line to then lay forward and above the fender apron? There is not enough room to reflare using the bench vise type Eastwood tool that I have but maybe you could with those cheaper hand held tools.

There is a company that makes a one piece door window that actually does do away with the vent assembly.

That is an interesting perspective.

I read that the Shubecks needed closer valve lash settings to avoid that. They sure would have been a magic bullet for this failure issue.

That car has a bit of a circle track car vibe. The black wheels look cool. I like the alignment numbers. I see many people quoting the Mopar Action “Skosh Chart” but to me, the caster numbers in it seem too low. It sure would be great if we could motivate some of the guys in these western...

Sarcasm detector FAILED.

The 5 blade versus 7 does have me curious. I have used both and did not have overheating with either. Basic bonehead sense leads me to think that more blades means it will pull more air through the radiator. Once the vehicle is moving, I don’t see the greater fin count being a problem. This...

I wonder how many people will have the wait and see opinion? It is funny to me to state this but besides a high failure rate, flat tappet lifters have advantages over roller lifters. Yeah, besides heart failure and psychosis, methamphetamine has some benefits too. I would have stayed with a...

I think a lot of us that actually do hands on stuff encounter stuff like this. I picture the days in construction where I’ve hit my fingers with a hammer, then end up bumping my fingers on everything causing shooting pains to the core. Your hands get greasy, then your face itches. You torque...

The top two pictures show the lights at their brightest. I’m looking at the pictures on my phone though so maybe they load differently than when seeing them on a computer? I can tell the difference though. It has the same bigger glow as I got with my car. Score!

The knob is considered an impediment to controlling the steering wheel. They are common on forklifts and were popular many years ago on power steering cars. I’ve heard them called by a few slang names….Necker Knob, Suicide Knob, etc.

The drip rails are one part of the classic styling cues that new cars don’t have. I don’t intentionally drive my car in the rain so the drip rails on mine are just along for the ride. I was sort of teasing about the eyebrow comments but I do think the cars don’t look as good with them...

All LA engines used an aluminum timing cover.

Eliminating them along with a few other things may improve the aero enough to cut down on wind noise that we get with these cars. Stuff like wiper arms out there catching and disturbing the air, side view mirrors, rain gutters, wheels and tires recessed in the fenders instead of sitting out...

Sure.
