Looking for a Park/Neutral safety switch for a 1964 big-block 727,floor-shift model. These are not available from normal auto parts stores;Standard Industries does not either produce or carry this. The numbers on the (Mopar)switch are "2496133" with a "264" stamped vertically on one of the hex...

Looking for a decent(chrome-wise) door mirror or a nice pair. Lost the head to one of mine going down the road;need to either find a head or a complete mirror. Would consider a decent pair. Thanks,folks!

Even after all that,I'm still not un-pissed. OK,gentlemen...How difficult is it to replace the throttle shaft seal on a Torqueflite? What was a very slight leak has turned into a @#$%ing gusher,and it looks like it's at the t.s. seal. The manual really isn't thorough in its explanation,so I...

OK;I'm tired of trying to deal with my wiring issues under the dash,and have all the a/c equipment in my bloody way. Short of a torch or a Sawzall(don't tempt me...),is this stuff easy to remove? My manuals(both an original and a repro) show absolutely nothing about removing this crap,and I'd...

Gawd I HATE @#$%ing electrical issues.:angryfire: Throwing wrenches at the problem won't solve it.:sad3: It also can (bleep)-up the paint. So;I've got the carb choke wired into the fuse box under the dash,where it's only on(supposedly) when the key is on. Well...it also seems to be a draw on...

Yes;I'm still around... Just dealing with some personal and health-related issues. Had a seizure on the 4th,still waiting to get into a neurologist to find out what the hell the trigger was. I have no history of this,so I'm at a loss. On some meds right now,and no relapse. Laura and I jumped...

Fired up the lovely Sabrina and motored down to the Chrysler Employees show at the Chrysler Museum. Incident free,except for losing my driver's side mirror-just the housing and mirror,not the stand-on I-75 southbound. Even went back to look for it,and it was nowhere to be found. Switched the...

Pics From Monthly Cruise At The Fluishing "A"=LOTS Of Nice Stuff! I know this is usually for announcements,but it also states you can post pics-so I will! I live about 4 miles away from one of the best monthly cruises in mid-Michigan;one which has gone on for 27 years now. Got to be...

I know Rich C. usually does these,but this one is not humorous. Dick Trickle died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound earlier today. He had called a 911 operator and informed that person that they should send officers to a Charlotte,N.C. cemetery where they would find his body. I don't...

OK,here's the deal...Machine shop can't get bushing material to bush my rods down to .990";not a big deal,IMO. But...my Venolia pistons are .990 pin size and I don't want to drop big buck$ on new slugs. Seems to me that machining the material out for the larger pins shouldn't be a big deal-or is...

OK;I've "quit" numerous times in the past 30+ years,only to lose my mind over some BS and start again. At my advanced age,it's time to do it for good. I've chewed a forest worth of toothpicks and am using a patch;well,patches(one per day) and so far,so good. As long as my daughter doesn't drive...

With thanks to(and encouragement from) cr8crshr! 'Tis the season that hopes and fields of dreams are made of. Spring training is in full swing(OK. Bad pun)and rosters are being determined and young hopefuls become young stars-or outright busts. I've been a baseball fan since I was a wee lad...

Upgrading to a better,faster unit;which at my age is not a bad thing...I meant the computer. The other unit works just fine... Getting a newer computer with Windows 7,anti-virus protection and such. Shutting this unit down and unhooking it in a few. I'll be away from here for a couple of...

...And I stress the word "Potential" Was contacted earlier today about the Stage V(B) head I'm looking for;a "[email protected]". Said to contact him via e-mail and provided a link. I copied his addy and sent off a missive stating that I was interested. I did not click on the e-mail link...

...Works for me... Well,without getting whiney-if I ever do guys,tell me to STFU-I've got some serious crap going on. More than I had expected. But...that's not why we're here. When the feces hits the fan,a road trip is in order. In this case,it was a trip to my buds at Mancini Racing. Wanted...

I've got a 904 trans that came with the 318 Poly I have,and would like to rebuild it to sell. Before I decide to invest in that,I'd like to know if they're the same as the ones behind the later LA small-blocks,from an internal component standpoint. No sense doing it if parts aren't available. As...

Have a complete 318 Poly motor and trans that came from my '64 Sport Fury. Mill is a 2-bbl,complete carb to pan,will need a rebuild. Doesn't turn,but I think it's just from sitting as opposed to breakage. Trans is complete but will need a rebuild as well. Really want my garage space back that...

Saw this on FB,and as if my day wasn't already shitty enough(though I did get my rods sent out for re-sizing and bushings added),I read this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/05/fox-sports-1-espn-24-hour-sports-network_n_2809010.html Read the article;as we know,Fox took over Speed...

As I've often stated,I'm trying to do things on a tight budget. I know cheap isn't always good,but once on a while... A couple of years ago,I picked up a set of used Venolia +.030 slugs at a very good price-with pins and Spirolox. Supposedly only used for a short time on a dyno,until...
