Excellent advice- unless you can afford to throw that much $ away.

I had a business in Nassau County, on Long Island. The local school super was knocking down $505K per year. My share as a business owner was about $500 per week. A starter home in Syosset has a typical tax bill of about $10K per year. If you have a newer high-end house, taxes are measured...

What happened to "Freakin Rican"?

If the pump was turning backwards, it would still flow in the proper direction, but at a reduced level. Regarding flow, more flow=more cooling. That's why the thermostat opens as the engine gets hotter. There's a smaller temperature change in the engine and the radiator, but the amount of...

but the car is a hack job. Couldn't agree more. They paid too much for it and there's no way I'd pay half of what they want for that car.

I sure can't argue with that last sentence.

Honey boo boo is a show ​Not any more.

I wouldn't mind my father's '68 Hurst/Olds, one of only 18 made with factory AC. Second choice would be my '66 Galaxie 7-Litre convertible with the 427/4-speed option. These two very rare cars are just not seen any more.

Paid way too much for that 'Cuda, IMO, what a POS that car is.

When I was a kid, I lived across the street from the chief engineer for the Lunar Module. He must be turning over in his grave every time we hitch a ride into space with Vladimir. Coincidentally, he used to drive a two-cycle Saab.

I just did some brake work on my '66 Coronet, rebuilt all the wheel cylinders and installed 11" brakes on the rear. I flushed the system with alcohol and installed DOT 5. I also used it for years on my '69 Dart with front disc brakes. I'm surprised its use is not promoted more on GYC, along...

Waste of good steel that could be recycled into something else. Fish have survived for millions of years before we started "helping" them.

Power brakes are generally required with discs, as they are not self-energizing like drum brakes. I had a '69 Dart with the disc brake option, and one day when the booster failed, you couldn't stop the car, not even with two feet on the pedal. The only way to stop it was with the parking, or...

Personally, I think the show has improved in its later iterations. Regarding Darren, I've worked with some real clunkers when I had my own business. Darren wouldn't have lasted a week working for me.

I agree 100%. He could have started with another Challenger not as nice as that one, and the model wouldn't matter because it would be modified anyway. IMO they made the same mistake with the wrecked Ferrari that he and Dennis Collins bought. Who would pay good money for a wrecked Ferrari?

For those that remember, the same thing happened with the ZR-1 Corvette. Buyers were paying $100K in 1990 dollars and it never became a collectible.

My parents had a '66 wagon with the 440 TNT engine. Good runner, but you couldn't use the AC in traffic, as the engine would overheat. It had a slower direct-drive fan as opposed to the faster clutch fan in a '65 with the 413. That car could sit and idle all day in the heat of summer with the...

Actually, alcohol has a very high octane value. That, combined with its tremendous latent heat, is the only reason to use it, and only as a racing fuel. There is no benefit to using it on the street, especially in a carbureted engine that lacks the ability to automatically adjust its fuel-air...

That cat hasn't missed too many meals.

Keep in mind too that the later 340's did not have the power that the '69-'70 engines did.
