Our little WI town lost one of my best Mopar buddies and neighbor. Foreman for a blacktop company was working late last Friday and tipped over dead from a heart attack at 60. He had been complaining for 4 years of episodes of severe chest pain and having a hard time breathing. His "cure" was to...

Anyone else see something odd about this ad in the latest issue of Mopar Collecters Guide?

You guys that have retired or semi retired before the age of 65, what are you doing for health care insurance? The wife has always carried our insurance since I am a self employed sole proprietor. As on June 1, she will be retired at 62 and I am 56. Our financial people have us set up for...

Is it possible to remove feedback for a member if you are the one who left it?

This one goes out to Randy aka 1 Wild R/T. He posted a pic in Richs' 5-speed conversion thread a couple weeks ago about a tool he fabricated to make measuring bellhousing runout easier. I made a comment that I wouldn't mind having one of my own. Look what showed up in my mailbox today. I'll get...

I'm so impressed with this brake bleeding system that I felt I should share. I think it was KernDog who mentioned using this product last summer. While I have always thought I had done a decent job of bleeding brakes with the old get your wife or kids to pump the pedal ordeal, I had 1 car that...

We dismantled the wife's garden this weekend. Had all my toys outside at once and just had to take a couple of pics. My wife gives me a hard time about them, but keeps her mouth shut when they are helping her out, how does that make sense? 1953 Golden Jubilee just finished up a motor rebuild...

The Lift Off Hood Playground - Login Any of you guys remember this car and former member? Probably is correct that it is the lowest milage A12 in existence, but a million bucks, holy cow.

Traded in my 2019 for a 2022 work truck. Ordered it in June. It was built by the beginning of November, but then took 1 1/2 months to get it out of Mexico. With the amount of tools and parts I carry around on a daily basis, I just don't see how it would be possible for a guy like me to have to...

Anybody else been trying to deal with Firm Feel? Kind of not happy with them and need to vent. On August 15th, I ordered 2 rear sway bars. At the time I was sort of shocked when they told me 8 weeks until I would get them. Figured I would still be able to get at least one of them installed...

I placed an order for a full 3" exhaust 3 weeks ago from them through Chicago Connection. Verified the item was in stock. It took them 1.5 weeks to put it in a box and ship it. So, it took 2.5 weeks for me to get an in stock item. After getting it installed, I decided instead of using my...

I'm a lone wolf HVAC guy. Last service call yesterday afternoon and I smoked a deer head on. Big old 2500 RAM and hardly felt it. Check engine light is on. Probably something to do with the motorized louver system being gone. No fluids leaking, so that is good. Really can't afford to not...

Bought a McLeod 6911-05 18 spline twin disc setup 2 years ago for $451.14 from Summit. Today they are $785.00. I know absolutely everything has gone up in price the last 2 years, but that is a 75% increase.

Ran across a car for sale on facebook this morning that sure looks like Paul's car. Located in Reidsville, NC. 1963 Dodge Polara 440. Nostalgic drag car with HP 440, reverse manual valve body trans with Hurst quarter stick shifter. 8 3/4 Sure Trac rear narrowed with mini tubs. 3.91 gears. 440...

2.5 years ago I bought a set of QA1 52361 alignment adjusters from Summit. Installed them a couple of months ago. Went to get an alignment yesterday and the tech at first couldn't get the adjuster to spin. Eventually the bolt did turn, but the cam wasn't. Took it out and found that the flats...

With as much messing around on these old cars as I do, I have been wanting to be able to at least get the alignments close at home. Started a thread a couple months ago and the concensus was that they really need to go in to the pros. Well, my old alignment guy is retiring, so now it will...

@Jerry Hall, in the latest edition of MCG. I have to imagine it is your name gracing their pages in an article about a 70 RR 6 pack 4-speed FK5 car?

This has been the strangest spring around here, if you want to call it that. The whole yard was white 5 minutes before I took the pics. Hail up to golf ball size. Awfully hard on shingles and cars sitting outside.

I bought one of those cheap scopes that hook to your phone several years ago. You know, the one that is shipped directly from China for $10 or so. What a pile of crap. Really not even useable. So I want to get another one, but this time must have its own screen. See there are a few on...

Anybody recognize this piece? Found it in a drawer with shifter/clutch stuff.
