    YouTube and their ads

    I watch a lot of YouTube videos and have noticed that they have really ramped up the appearance of ads. It used to be that you'd have an ad at the beginning of a video but now they also have them interrupting the video by popping in every few minutes, then another ad after the video is done...

    Roadkill and other car related TV shows

    Many of us enjoyed these shows or at least some of them. I liked the Roadkill, Roadkill Garage, Engine Masters and sometimes the Roadworthy Rescues shows. As a guy that has tinkered with cars since 1982, I can say that working on cars can sometimes be frustrating. Cuss words get yelled, tools...

    When Mopar guys get together...

    When FBBO member @68 Sport Satellite called me awhile back asking about torsion bars, I invited him to make the drive up to the KD garage. Why not put the word out to a couple other guys? There he is with the dark hair. The Dart belongs to FABO/FBBO member CoronetDarter. The Satellite has...

    What causes a retractable seat belt to lock up during hard braking ?

    I've searched online but maybe I'm asking this wrong. On a regular, properly functioning seat belt system, when the brakes are applied, the belts extend slightly then lock, preventing an occupant from coming out of their seat. I want to know what causes the retractor to lock. This is in regards...

    What happened to Steve Dulcich?

    I have enjoyed his contributions to the Roadkill shows and have watched his videos online but it has been three months since he has posted any videos. Does anyone know what happened to him? I saw him in Carlisle....

    Things the car factories did that made no sense to you

    Being blessed/cursed with a curious mind, I always wonder why, what if and how come. Companies like Chrysler always seemed to swing between being flush with cash to then being borderline bankrupt. You'd think that they would have had better control of themselves and controlled costs better by...

    Rear shoulder belts in a 1970 Charger

    I was talking with a fellow FBBO friend @CoronetDarter and the topic of rear seat belts came up. He was looking at modifying the package tray area to integrate some sort of attachment point to secure child safety seats. It got me thinking.... I never ride in the back so rear seat belts have not...

    Holley carburetor vacuum secondary metering plate screws

    Hello, Where do you find a tool to remove these weird screws? They have a strange pattern that no hardware store seems to have. I just left a Speed Shop where the clerk said it is no longer being made. I have tried to remove these screws before using a standard screwdriver and have deformed the...

    AEM Air/Fuel gauge seems to be non responsive

    Years ago on the advice of a fellow car guy, I installed an air/fuel gauge. I was having detonation issues and thought that the gauge could help me tune my way out of the problem. Over the years, I have enjoyed having this gauge because it showed in real time what was going on. You could see it...

    1969 Charger 500 headlights

    I was working on the headlights of my '70 Charger and got to thinking about the aero tricks that were done to the 1969 Charger 500. I've never looked real close at one but I understand that a grille and headlight bezels from a 68 Coronet were used and they were pushed out to the edge of the...

    Who wants brighter headlights?

    We don't always drive in just the daylight. Who wants brighter headlights? A couple years back, I added the headlight relay kit offered by a fellow FABO/FBBO member. This kit is strongly recommended if you have standard sealed beam headlights but considering the drastic reduction in current...
