Here's my pics in a Google photos page, about 200 in all. Yes, it was hot. Yes, we had a great time regardless. Highlight of my summer as always!
Carlisle 2023
Urban Legend or Not ?
This story was published in Cars Illustrated in the late 80’s written by Tony DeFeo.
Quarter Million Quarter Mile
He stood on the other side of the counter. To his left was an Accel catalog rack. To his right, an empty Diet Pepsi that had been downed with one massive...
Yeah, we're not going to be able to keep up with him now, he's gonna be driving that thing everywhere. Probably no chance of him bringing it to Carlisle this year so I'll start working on him now for next year's meet.
In regards to the wheels - if the car was black then black wheels all the...
Yeah, the battery is pretty glaring. I'll be honest and admit I didn't notice myself until I posted the picture of the engine bay this AM. Easy enough to change to a resto battery or even a cover. In lieu of that, like FMJ said, at least he should take the Exide stickers off. That's what I did...
One more story about the cork sniffer idea in reverse. It was later in the AM and the show was winding down. We're all sitting on a wall behind our cars and a guy comes up to me and asks me what year the blue car is (mine). Figuring he genuinely didn't know, I told him it's a '68. To my...
You know, I have to give the people at this show credit - they are super into their cars like we are, they're just into different things. Yes, the value of many of them is staggering but most of the people we chatted with were super down to earth. None of us felt out of our element really and it...
Had some friends from the big city come up to my neck of the woods yesterday to attend a Caffeine and Carburetors cruise in. We arrived a little late to a totally packed show but the masses were parted in front of us and we were escorted down the red carpet to prime real estate parking just off...
I think that separating “old” and “new” might not be such a good thing because it could illuminate a decline in interest of the old stuff. The swap meet has diminished for sure probably because of internet sales and high prices for basic parts.
Not seeing that parts for newer cars follow the...
I took a bunch of photos, click the link below to check 'em out. I was there with my friends @fullmetaljacket , Benny ('67 Charger) and his son Ollie. We had an absolute blast.

Post up your Carlisle pics here!
Don't know if a '66 Plymouth tank will be the same as a '68-'70, guessing probably not. I have not seen a module specifically for that year.
The two main issues I have with the Holley harness is the length of the wires and how you're supposed to connect your power and ground "directly" to the...
Nice job Hawk.
I tried to hide the wiring too but didn't do as sanitary a job as you did! My "mistake" was trying to integrate the FI harness into another aftermarket harness during a complete re-wire of the whole car. After re-doing the entire thing over TWICE for various reasons, I needed to...
Garceau, I forgot about these the other day but better late than never - Holley makes "drop in" fuel pump modules now that install where the factory fuel pickup/sender assembly would be so no need to buy a tank. I don't know what car you're working on but they do offer a specific '68-'70 B Body...
I won't because here's no rational justification for any of this stuff. The argument was a non-sequitur because choosing to convert a car to EFI has nothing to do with how many miles a year the car gets driven. What do you say to the guys that have 6-71 blowers sticking out of the hood and 14x32...
There's a small group of 'car guys' in my immediate area that sometimes meet informally at a nearby gas station. One of my neighbors is a friend and rents out a bay there to work on his Pontiac projects. If I see him working I stop by to chat if I can.
One day last fall I was in my Coronet and...
