For sale not mine, but that's not why I am posting this, if you see it you see it, how/when did this ever get started? Two of them 5 posts apart on my FB search this morning lol...
Not sure how many people are familiar with this company. In rural WI, this was basically the ice cream man, drivers had routes through the country roads and had a truck full of ice creams, pizzas, chicken, whatever. Quality was generally high. Price was fair for quality, but not equally fair on...
So,
Didn't anyone go? Am I really the first thread this year?
I just got back. It was FULL this year, I mean the whole front lot they ran out of space and people did walmart parking lot style laps on the field trying to find a place to pull in. I haven't seen so many cars in may years now...
I don't watch TV. I mean, there can be a program on specifically I might sit down for, but generally speaking I can't stand modern TV writing and the pace and topics are unimaginative and at this point repetitive between shows even.
Thing is, I used to watch TV. I used to like some shows...
I enjoy this series: Best Motoring from Japan. A blast from the 90's past, the put cars against each other on a legit track. They mix it up with international occasionally.
I recommend seeking out various episodes on youtube.
Example:
Recently I decided based on observation that like most old V8's, my 318 Magnum in the Dakota prefers not to consume ethanol. The exhaust is smoother, it responds better, runs better period.
I can only basically get 91 or 93 octane with no ethanol in WI. probably because there are only two...

I don't have anything against them really. But the way thee tech has been applied is driving me nuts lately.
They take much less power to run. I get that, that was the whole big deal with them. I think they have usefull applications.

Saw this as I was browsing. I couldn't look away.
I know people rebuild cars but I think this guy is a bit crazy putting this money into(and trying to sell for) a salvage car. In WI that brand on the title never goes away.

I had to take my daughter in to work today. I gave her a ride in the 5 speed Dakota.
I left the driveway and we noticed my wife in the big window waving. So I stopped and we waved.
Then I left with a righteous 5800rpm burnout, which my daughter found amusing. (well, me too of course)
On the...
I didn't see any search results for this topic so i thought I would start one.
Do you use a custom shift knob? What did you use?
I have (2) I am going to work on this winter. One in the 98 Dakota, one in the 78 Monaco police car.
Both will be beer tap handles. No, no, not like the modern 20"...

Thought I would post this here, in case someone that actually likes these cars is interested before the flippers get a hold of it and it ends up on Mecum 3 owners later...
I bought a new tool a couple months ago, and wanted to share how it has done.
Now, it isn't some new invention per se', however the mechanical design and application is something I have never seen before.
When I got my Dakota, a rubber boot on the front passenger half shaft was torn. New boot...
Specifically: Seafoam penetrating oil.
My recent plenum gasket repair on my Dakota required some broken bolt extraction. I discovered the 4 cans of various penetrating oil I have had laying around for 20 years were finally used up. I had:
PB Blaster
Dura-Lube
3-in-1 Penetrating Oil(not just...
We have all had this scenario:
You go to do a repair on a vehicle you bought used. As you dig into it, you discover some odd things, some things that make you scratch your head, maybe some things that tick you off.
Today was one of those days.
Yard sale Dakota I bought, has 54k miles on it...
