    Robert Redford won't be down for breakfast

    I highly recommend Sneakers, as well.

    I learned me something today about torque-to-yield bolts.

    I just replaced my upper control arms on the Coronet and, in the process, found both bolts had come loose on the driver's side caliper bracket.

    Do YOU go 3 or more days between showers ???

    Funny how easily it is to get folks to share details of their personal hygiene with strangers on the internet.

    My new stock stroke 400 build

    I just did a rad flush I my R/T. Earlier this spring, I found that one head was seeping coolant at the outside of the block. I did the lazy thing of adding a bottle of block sealant to fix it. This did the trick, and the seepage stopped, but I think it started to plug the rad up, too. I found...

    Do YOU go 3 or more days between showers ???

    Yes, another 1 Wire alternator thread

    I have concerns with that also and that is why all my heavy inductive loads like a fan get a free wheeling diode across them.

    White plastic ring on steering column?

    68 Charger-See picture… what is this loose plastic ring? Where does it belong? And looking closely at the steering coupler area, as that slight angle (not straight) should be a concern? Thanks

    Hose reel

    First water hose reel i purchased broke after the third use. However, it was several months old by then. I have tried other manual hose reels also. They always break somewhere or leak somewhere. Gave up on them, my hose lays coiled up on the ground now between the bushes when not in use these days.

    Bolt and Small Part Black Oxide Finish.

    I think I used Tremclad oil based clear. I wire wheel the fasteners, then soak/brush them in Rubbing Alcohol to remove all the grease/oils. Then toss them in the Oxide. I use pliers to remove them, dry them immediately with compressed air, them spray them.

    I learned me something today about torque-to-yield bolts.

    Why build in what will be a failure point for DYI'rs and untrained/unknowing mechanics? Most cars are built without torque-to-yield bolts on the calipers and they function just fine. What benefit of using these bolts outweighs the risk of bolt failure when they fail to get replaced? It's a...

    Yes, another 1 Wire alternator thread

    We have had dozens and dozens of issues with Powermaster alternators and starters every year. It is almost never their fault. It is always consumers/installers fault. I have heard everything from them from too much draw, bad ground, to they determined that an engine must have back fired taking...

    Hose reel

    I'm a rookie (1st water reel) so will find out. Plan to bring mine in during the winter, it's not exactly lightweight. At my age, three-years into the future being still able seems like a hope and a blessing, lol.
