i’m not on Facebook, but a friend who is sent me this

I would imagine this has already been discussed, but I did a search without finding anything previously discussing it. At Michael’s arts and crafts today I found this model car kit. I have been hoping for one to come on the market. There has been a convertible out for some time, but of course my...

I was watching an episode of graveyard carz that was talking about the restoration of a 1968 charger RT. The fender tag paint code shows.MM1. When I first bought my car as a rolling (not even running) heap of metal, the car was painted black, which matched the paint code on the fender tag. When...

I just watched a video about 20 weird facts about 1969 Charger RT’s. Some of the facts are things that I have heard about before, but some I have never heard about. Number two talks about Hemi four speed RT convertibles. Since no such vehicle came from the factory, I guess whoever created the...

I found two of these for sale today. They are obviously dealer promotions. There a few missing items unfortunately, but the important things are there. Not bad for $9.50 for the both of them. In addition to the instructions on the back, there is a short story about Sox and Martin’s...

I came across this MPG calculator. There is one feature that makes it pretty unique. In the lower left-hand corner, you insert your car key into each of the three rotating number wheels. You set the numbers, ignoring tenths of a mile, so that you can easily remember how many miles you have...

Here are a couple of pamphlets I picked up at today’s flea market. A Chrysler turbine car brochure. Also a couple of perpetual calendars, one of which, the gold one, I have had from the time my dad got it from Highland Park. Also a champion notebook.

I came across this dealership pamphlet outlining trailer packages. Some of the hottest engines of 1964 were excluded from these packages. The 273 from Valiant, the 426 from Plymouth, and the Firepower 390 Ram Engine from Chrysler

My biggest hobby, after my RT, is antique and vintage tube and transistor radios. When I saw this radio, I thought it was oddly unusual and cool. Since I bought it, I have been on the lookout at garage and Estate Sales for an appropriate slide for it. A few days ago I came across one I thought...

I came across these two items at the flea market today. I have a couple other similar spare key holders, but this is the first one that came with the fake cardboard key. The key is mysterious to me. It has on it DPCD, so it is obviously has some connection to Mopar. On the other side, you can...

I found some interesting Mopar items at a recent sale. A couple of warranty brochures. An auto pilot brochure. I wasn’t aware that Mopar was the very first auto company to offer cruise control. After looking at the brochure, I guess these first cruise control units didn’t have a resume feature...

I was watching a 1959 film titled The World, the Flesh, and the Devil. Harry Belafonte finds himself in a post nuclear war world. He goes into a car dealership and hotwires himself a 1958 Chrysler 300 convertible. As he is under the dash, there is a great shot of the car’s beautiful dashboard. I...

I am sure that a huge percentage of the guys on this forum assembled model kit cars. A friend of mine had a brother who at one time worked at AMT. I came across a couple of things that belonged to him. It looks like there was an employee newsletter, probably issued monthly. Also, you will notice...

I found this neon clock at an estate sale for two bucks. As you can see, I modified it a little.

I came across this radio shack, intermittent wiper module. I have seen these in the past, and even have two or three of them in my collection, but I am stumped by the dual controls. The left thumb wheel is labeled interval, and the right is labeled sweeps. Interval is self evident, but I am...

I found this bumper jack today at an estate sale. I know that these T shaped masts are usually sought after. I am not even certain which car manufacturer it is from. There is a number on the hook. 1380855. Anybody have any clues?

I came across this article about the two Chargers in the movie Bullit. It seems that stunt driver, Bill Hickman, who drove the Charger, and also acted in the film, was the person that bought the two cars for the film. The two cars were originally painted yellow and blue. You can see the blue...

Last Sunday I went to an estate sale And saw a pretty unique old target game. It was a version of the shoot the bear game. Instead of shooting a bear with a rifle, this version used Tojo as the target.

I saw this at a sale today and I just had to grab it. I paid a buck for it. When I got it home and hooked it up to power I was pleasantly surprised that it seems to be working.

A friend came across this ad and texted it to me
