There was a beautiful 66 white or ivory Coronet with 9 inch slicks on a open trailer turning south on 371. Guessing it's a Minnesota car...

    440 7 Quart oil pans in B Bodys

    Working on a 440 engine build that will be installed in my 66 Coronet later this year. The oil pan on the engine in the car now looks like it came off a 4x4 pick up truck that went through a war. Going to replace it and could not help noticing quite a few cheap (under $100.00) 7 quart pans...

    Quick Fuel SS 750 w/Annular Boosters

    Has anyone run this carb or other Quick Fuel double pumpers with the annular boosters on a big block? I'm considering this carb for a street-strip 383, 727, 3.73 set up. I've read great reviews on these carbs and the advantages of the annular boosters instead of the down leg boosters.

    DOT Tire Recommendation with 4" front wheel

    I did a search but did not come up with anything on this subject. I'm looking for a recommendation on DOT approved 15 inch front tire for use on my 4 inch wide front wheels. This would be similar to a drag front runner size tire. Maybe a 155R15 size or something like that. Thanks
