AFter owning this car and being a member here for around 10 years I can now show off my ride with paint on it.
Life got in the way as i`m sure happens to a lot of us but here it is! I love the AAR`s but my pockets arent deep enough to buy one so I took the look of an AAR and made my own version...
Looking for a nice set of (4) 15x7 trim rings must be OEM! I’ve had enough of the aftermarket junk that does not fit. Let me know what you have Thanks!
I swear these rings simply will not fit on a 15X7 rim! Just to refresh my story I bought a set of wheel vintiques rings that I could not get to fit my US wheel rims so I sent those back contacted US wheel & have the rings they say will fit their rims. I still can not get these mother F’ers on! I...
I recently bought a set of US wheel rally rims 15x7 and a matching set of wheel vintiques beauty rings. These rings just do not fit on the rim! I tried tapping it on with a rubber mallet with no sucess. This isnt rocket science what am I doing wrong? Is there a better ring out there I should of...
I`m sure this has been asked a million times before so I apologize in advance. My car left today for body and paint work "FINALLY"! Now I really need to decide what I want for rims and tire sizes. I want U.S Wheel Rallye wheels (15X7 4.5 backspace in the front) & (15X8 4.5 backspace in the...
Hi everyone! I`ve been long overdue from this site and from doing any meaningful work on my Barracuda as well! So I decided to start recovering my bucket seats with some new skins from Legendary. Much to my surprise when I pulled out the drivers seat and flipped it over I discovered yet another...
I found this over on the "A" body site not sure if anyone has posted this here but it belongs here!

My engine builder just called and told me he found my stock oil pan had a Jb weld repair on it. I would rather get another pan than try to repair this one properly. I found one at summit http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G3536/ in the notes section under stroker clearance it says "no". I am...
I found this while searching the internet and WOW it really works! Here is a link for anyone interested in trying it. http://antique-engines.com/electrol.asp#wash-soda I used this method on a mounting bracket for the end links on a rear sway bar setup. Here are a few before and after photos once...
Just spotted this on craigs list for $300.00 without knowing exactly what is wrong with it does it sound like a good buy? I`m thinkin intake and valve covers are at least worth $150.00 . It`s only a few miles from me, I got voicemail when I called.
This is the text from the ad:
Up for sale is...
I can`t decide whether to rechrome my bumpers or buy some I spotted on craigslist. The seller says they are 70-74 and all driver quality he has a few different ones in a pic for $50 each. The price is right as long as I can find a pair for my car once I see them in person.Are there any...
I may be able to pick up a disc brake set up for my 72 what would be a fair price to pay? I assume it is in working condition and would need to be pulled off the car. I have not seen it yet,should I grab the lines and prop valve in the engine bay or can I use what is on my car? Do I need to get...
This has happened to me about 3 times now. After driving around for an hour or more if I make a stop and shut my car off when i`m ready to go again I turn the key and get nothing,if I wait around 5 minutes or so it starts right up. I have tried putting it in neutral suspecting the neutral safety...
I am thinking of making an offer on this car I don`t want to say the asking price just looking for opinions on how much anyone here would think it`s worth if they saw it for sale. I looked at it once almost a year ago, now it`s for sale again by a new owner who didn`t do a thing to it. My...
I just found a pinhole in my oil pan near the drain plug I put some JB Weld on it for now. I will be replacing the pan very soon I was looking at a Milodon stock replacement pan. Since I have never had to drop a pan before I was just wondering how easy this is it seems pretty stright...
I am having trouble figuring out whats wrong. My turn signals and interior lights stopped working. Everything worked fine untill I took apart my dash to get to the voltage limiter for the gauges still waiting for that part to arrive.I checked each flasher by inserting a test light on the fuse...
Ok I have a few questions. Yesterday I was changing the dist cap and wires when I bumped the vacuum advance and the dist moved turns out the previous owner must not have tightened it down.The motor has always run a bit rough but with open manifolds I didn`t do anything to it.Now with an exhaust...
I am replacing the water pump and adding a new radiator.There is no t-stat in my car right now,what size should I use 160*-180*. Would it make a big difference either way? I have a stock 318 no a/c with factory 4 blade fan with no cluch.Thanks
Also was going to use the rad cap off my 6 cyl rad...
I just picked up a fourth Rally Rim I was needing but by the valve stem it`s stamped 15 with a # of 3580068 is that a part # or a date code? Did I just buy a 15" rim? I had wanted a 14" rim the tire on this rim is a G-70 - 14 can you squeeze a 14" tire onto a 15" rim?One of the rims I already...
Just thinking about this I put a new fuel tank in my car and reused the old sending unit but there was no filter/screen on the end of it. How important are they?I sort of blew it off as not that important when I installed the tank but now I`m having second thoughts.The tank is still dry so if I...
