    Yeah, the rain has been pretty constant. Again, let's just hope mother nature gets all this rain out of her system before next week.

    My new 70 roadrunner

    Neat car and neat color! Is it a B3 blue? Does it have a fender tag (on driver side inner fender)?

    the daily rant

    As some of you know, I have a 1969 Corvette that fell into my lap for a price I couldn't refuse, so I have made that a (near) daily driver. The car is a small block 350 car, with PS, PB, TH400 auto, power windows and factory A/C. I've been working to get everything working just like it should...

    Update on carburetor stumbles

    ^^^^ What he said! This is step 1 before you do anything else. Only after that has been verified should you move on to other steps. ...and I'll add to this some: If your hand even twitches the throttle the accelerator pump should start squirting fuel. If it doesn't, then you have an issue...

    Carlisle Tent Activities 2025 - Volunteers Needed!

    Thanks Dennis! So we are at the yellow arrow. A bit further away from the grandstand than last year. This means more to lug there on Saturday - Yuk! Also looks like we'll have another group right next to us so space might get a bit tight. Regardless, we'll do the best that we can and still...

    My 1978 Dodge Monaco 4 door sedan.

    :usflag: Gary, congratulations on your upcoming citizenship! :usflag: It looks like you are doing a nice job on the bodywork, but obviously you missed the memo. You are not done bodywork once you loose your fingerprints - you need to wear out all the skin and that signals that you are done...

    DeltaV's '70 Charger 500; The Omen

    My California built 70 Road Runner with evaporative emissions (yes, the goofy tube in the trunk) did NOT have this type of bracket... ...this explanation makes more sense to me. I don't remember off hand, but most of those are related to the date code and/or shift that the part was made. My...

    Newer cars are stupid.

    First of all, all this modern crap has allowed that truck to go 411K miles. The number of old classic cars that went well into the 100,000 mile range was very few compared to modern cars. Having said that, the electronics can absolutely get "old", especially the parts related to ignition (like...

    66 Coronet 500 Driver, Light Resto

    I agree with Don on using the factory bar. On my 70, this was one of the few places I used polyurethane. You want the bar to IMMEDIATELTY start resisting body roll, not waiting for good 'ol rubber to compress. (The other place I used Polyurethane was the lower control arms. They take a beating...

    It's been a crazy week... Typical Friday the 13th...With a Cherry on top...

    I agree that these cars are highly reliable. With all the trips I have done, that tow (shown in the post above) was the only time I ever had to get towed. I have done some road fixes, especially to my 73 since it sat for awhile before I drove it across country.
