The actual event starts today but it's really been going on all week. There have been non sponsored events at restaurants and parking lots and the like. There is everything here from classics to full out prostreet cars driving up and down the roads. Some of the race cars sound like they are...

The wife and I headed to nags head next week for the obx rod show. We will be there all week. Just curious if anyone else is going. We will be taking Ruby. We are supposed to fish on Tuesday morning if the weather holds and it looks good so far. We also do the jeep fest in September with Boomer.

A little back story first. I don't know if yall remember a year or so ago the charger transmission quit. I pulled it out and went through it (727) and didn't see a thing. Put back in and nothing, no power and very slow response. I double checked all the adjustments and still lazy. So I thought...

Woke up this morning Smiled with the rising sun Went to put clothes in the wash And there's a leak coming from the main feed line where it tees I will repair it But it's a PITA and I am not a fan of plumbing Ok, that's my rant for the day

Finally done. The interior is finished. The exterior is finished. I had the front glass installed today. I promptly went out and got her tags and registration. She fired right up with no isssues. Then it started to rain. Oh well I think I’ll have 3 beers in celebration

Small back story first. When I bought Ruby the 66 coronet the seller gave me another body and some quarters etc. It also came with a set of these wheels wich I don't particularly care for. He would like to buy the wheels back. I have no idea of the value and am not looking for bank. What is...

The first measurable snow in about 4 years or snow finally came last night. Not much really only about 5 inches. But, you would think it's 5 feet the way the local news stations responded. Plus all of the fools buying toilet paper and milk like crazy. Another reason to hate snow Two of my 4...

On Ruby, our 66 Coronet, needs an antenna. I could go stock but got to thinking about a power one. Just wondering if any of you are and if so which one.

Looks like the Eddie is on today according to HNN. I have it on you tube. It has not started yet but should about 9am Looks like the whole island shut down to watch this

I like to read and this time of year through march or so is when I read most. I am a fan of history so that's generally what I read. I have just finished a book about the battle of Midway again, for the 3rd time. It is called Shattered Sword by Anthony Tulley and Johnathan Parschall. This is...

I have new pistons for the 383 that goes back in Ruby and was going to take the rods and stuff to a machine shop for the install. I have done wrist pins before but I am not a fan of using a torch or propane heater. It is really that I'm not fond of an open flame in the shop and will avoid it...

Hey guys with 66/67 coronet hardtop non-ac cars. I have a 66 coronet 500 Have you replaced the temp and control cables? If so what did you use? I can't seem to find them

The pumpkin chuckin contest is back on this year at our church fall fest. I have to defend my honor as I won the title last year. This year’s model is way stronger and larger. I should be able to laugh about 400 ft. I still need to tune it up. Which is essentially changing the release pin angle...

I managed to put the vinyl top on Ruby. It wasn't as hard as i anticipated. I took my time and am happy with the results. I only have one of the little chrome things that attach to the top of the A pillar where the vinyl stops on the coronet 500s i will find one or do something. I still need...

I am going to install the top on my 66 coronet. I have removed all the glass and chrome etc before painting. Now comes the install. The question is the factory top had a million staples holding the front and rear down at the roof where the glass lays. What did you guys do instead of those staples?

I am staying in Avon for a week at the beach and today we took a ride to Hatteras to see the light restoration. They are presently doing most work inside and will move to the outside soon. It gets blasted to remove the old paint in and out. Then repainted and the stairs repaired. It will also...

hey everybody I am getting ruby ready to go back together. She's a 66 coronet 500. On the top of the doors there is a piece of chrome trim that has those teeny little spring clips that look like an x. Anybody know where I can find them?

So I finally got Ruby painted. She came out of the factory red and a white vinyl top. So we stayed close the original red and will eventually put a new white vinyl top on. I'll start reassembly soon as i get the new horse fence done.
