    "The 383 was a bored out 361"?

    That is what this article claims. It says the "B" wedge began in 1958 with the 350 & 361. MSN But the confusion starts here with in 1959 Chrysler offering a RB 383. That is not a bored out 361 IMO. What I am not clear about, did Chrysler also in 1959 offer a "B" 383?

    Torq Thrust Wheel History

    Thought this was an interesting quick read: MSN I have always been very fond of the wheel/look. I was lucky enough I believe in the 60's there were only two?

    LED headlights It's about time

    "The problem mainly arises when bright LED bulbs are used in housings designed for halogen bulbs. The different beam patterns cause scattered and unfocused light that hits other drivers directly in their eyes." MSN

    American Thunder: Lemans, a movie

    Not sure where to post this, this movie documentary is now on Amazon Prime. If you are an American and have even speck of road racing or any racing DNA you must watch this movie.

    An interesting auto safety article for 60's cars

    I have no way to verify numbers quoted, but they all seem within reason. Worth a quick read IMO. They left out hood ornaments. (Ignore that, they did, my mistake) www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/19-dangerous-vintage-car-features-that-vanished/ss-AA1zKXD7

I've got like 3 semi's of stuff, much...

    Barn finds?

    Barn finds rarely interest me nor do I much follow them. If this one is common knowledge, sorry to rehash. But all I have to say is Wow! and what was the point anyway? If you plan to drive and live to 150? years, maybe I can see it. MSN
