FABO

[OneOfMany]

That said, the "comradery" is just so different on A bodies that it makes you question why you're there!

Been there for a long time, pretty much from the outset. Some great people and camaderie existed, including buying a member his dream car after he was taken for a ride on another one. Always been underdogs compared to the Bs and Es, at least according to B and E owners

Just seems like many forums, the regulars get a bit cranky feeling the necessity to post on every thread, insist their way is the only one, and call out others who challenge them. And then there's a small minority that are outright obnoxious.

Thats the internet.

I still regret not buying the 69 Dart 440 I found there. It was down the road, exdrag car, basically a **** box with a big engine, fender well headers, my style. If it was a Duster I wouldn't have hesitated. But I spent the money on my house.

These two threads are probably my FABO favorites.

Original Super Stock HEMI Barracuda BO29


Original Super Stock HEMI Dart LO23

The nudie pictures I post get MORE responses here than over there. Maybe the FBBO guys have more testosterone?

She is a member here too, though she rarely comes around. She hasn’t posted a LIKE on my nudie pictures here or there.

UT was a mega seller there. (fill up every thread on page 1.) He quit selling and started a You Tube channel.

That’s because Rich (SSVDP) and I bought all of Tony’s parts when he lost his shop.

I’ve been a member of both of these forums since 2008, and I’ve met tons of great people in both sites. The people over on FABO are second to none, and I have a lot of lifelong friends over there. I was a mod over there for some time, policing the gang, and other than a few that ran afoul of the law, everybody there was pretty well behaved. Some folks like MeMike, Leanna, Toolmanmike, and a whole list of others are dear friends of mine, who I would’ve never met if not for that site. Who can forget Leanna’s charity auctions and her Younguns thread? That’s what FABO is made of, good people loving their cars, just like here. I appreciate both sites, and the Roadrunner site, and trucks, and even the E body site, although I don’t really like E bodies. All good Mopar people!

Now, don’t get me started on the Moparts site!

They do have a thread entitled "Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA" in the "General Discussion" forum with more than 3,700 posts.

Time for a dog picture!

German shorthaired pointers are my favorite breed, maybe that's why I have 3 of em. One of them is in heat right now though, so its more of a pain than they usually are, which is hard to beat

Here's one of my dogs

What's an "A" body?

My Coronet came with "A" body on it when I bought it. It doesn't need "A" new one.......... I don't play well with other idiots, to much in common with them and I don't need the competition. Clean up in aisle B.

 

[toolmanmike]

That is what an A body should look like.

No but it could look like this.

 

[Hey-O]

How bout guys that don't know how to check or add oil?? Oil check and oil adding 1965 barracuda

That's completely ridiculous!

 

[Hey-O]

Yes,yes I am!

Till you pull next to a viper.
Been there, blew the shorts right off him.

 

[Cranky]

That's completely ridiculous!

My youngest daughter didn't listen to much of anything that I tried to teach when she lived at home. Several years later after she got her own apartment, she bought a piece of crap 70 El Camino and wanted me to help her with it. Asked her who went with her to look at it (it sure wasn't me) and she just mumbled something under her breath. The car was a real pile and told her she had better be ready for a full restoration if she wanted it to be right and safe. That didn't happen. About 2 years ago she sold it to her half sister.....she knows more about cars but still not enough to be driving a 55 year old car that someone half *** it to start with. It caught fire about a year ago.

Theresa's cousin has a grandson 20 years old who is totally incompetent. He's showed him how to check his oil repeatedly. Now ask him about collecting Godzllia action figures, he's on it. He asked me my thoughts, I said turn it over to your son, the boys father and let him pull his hair out over it!!
