    The opener with the yellow plastic is dual purpose. In addition to being an opener, it also doubles as a bottle top sealer. The all metal one is from Jones and Laughlin steel corporation. It has a small swing out blade.

    Vintage garage stuff

    I found this emergency car kit the other day at an estate sale for four bucks. They really went all out to make the carrying case look classy. I like the aerosol can fire extinguisher. The red flashing emergency light has a magnet on the back so you could stick it on your car. Also, there is a...

    Pair of RTs

    It was in the 60s today here in Southeast Michigan. Cruising around, I noticed this 69 RT Charger sitting in a bar parking lot. Seeing the empty spot next to it, I pulled in and took a picture.

    The spring to hold the flint up and the screw to hold the spring in were both missing. I cut a piece of spring from another lighter without ruining the functionality of it because this lighter uses a very short spring . I found a screw that fit in the bottom to hold the spring in. I had to grind...

    I found this lighter the other day. I had to improvise some missing parts to fix it, but it now seems to work fine

    Does yours have the pull starter? I understand sometime after cox put these on the market that they were sued for patent infringement over the starter. They then stopped selling models with the starter and replaced it with a knob at the back of the engine that you turned by a motion like you...

    Pump light

    I picked up a piece of translucent glass from an old gas pump. I used a nice piece of wood to make a box for it. I had an under the counter fluorescent light that I had picked up cheap at an estate sale. I pulled the guts out of the plastic case, and mounted them right in the box.

    Found this a few weeks ago. I just recently became aware that the Cox fuel contains nitromethane. As purchased, and after some sprucing up. This model has a recoil pull starter on it

    68 Charger ad

    It was my first year in high school. Got out of class around 1pm and ran the mile back home to watch the weekday games. Fantastic series with the Tigers becoming the very first team to win the series after being down 3 games to 1. Last time a pitcher (and quite probably the absolutely last time)...

    Your ad is similar to this one, also from a scorebook

    68 Charger ad

    Those of you that are not from the Detroit area would not know this, but the phrase “sock it to em Tigers“ was huge here during that time. So for the ad, they changed it to beep beep it to em Tigers. I may be wrong about this, but I think it was started by a local TV news sportscaster

    68 Charger ad

    I figured all you 1968 Charger guys would appreciate this. From a 1968 Detroit Tigers scorebook. It’s hard to believe that the MSRP on the charger went down from 67 to 68

    Model maker goofed

    Looks great. The color looks like my RT. My car came from the factory triple black. When restoring it I wanted to change the color, but to one that was available on a 68 Coronet. Why did you do your model in bronze?

    Model maker goofed

    I have been waiting quite a few years for one of the model manufactures to re-issue a 1968 Coronet RT kit. I came across this one the other day, although I am a little disappointed that it is a convertible. I am going to try and paint it close to the color of my car. That seems to be a bit of a...

    I found a nice vintage dwell tach today. It’s branded Knight, so that means it would have been sold through Allied Radio. I bought a small shelf for oil cans, and other related car stuff. It was meant to have a sign, but I didn’t get the sign frame when I bought it. I bought some quarter inch...
