Colorado National Speedway is just north of Denver. They run a figure 8 race called the trains. This is three cars hooked together - up front is a mediun to large size car, like a Caddy or Monte Carlo. It has the engine, steering, and a driver but no brakes. The middle car is usually fairly...

Excellent info, thanks! I have semi-capable fab skill but would probably get the USCT unit for simplicity's sake.

Something took a dump in the trans for my 72 Coronet wagon. I was out for a spin and all was well. Then trying to go from a stoplight, no motion at all. No noises, no slippage, it just stopped going in either direction. My longterm plan was to put one of the overdrive units in the car anyway to...

Haha. Isn't this the truth! It's a girl, they said two years old but I think maybe younger than that. It has settled very nicely into her household, gets along with her other dog (and vice-versa), is house trained, and is super chill. It's a rescue so of course you never know what you'll get...

We are heading home from picking up a new pup for the GF. Pretty chill little traveler, i think this will be a good one.

Haha. The rules say no documentation required! That lets the Old Wives Tales come back to life. :rolleyes:

Ice cube trays filled with hot water will freeze harder than those filled with cold water.

Here's an update on the sled. I lost the driveshaft a while ago coming back from a local gathering. Small wonder, I'm pretty sure these were the original u-joints. Dried out and the rollers were half missing. That might explain some of the clunking sound I was getting, eh? Anyway, new u-joints...

Wow. That is a crap-ton of canine energy. I'm tired just after watching that. Might be time for a nap...

I used a regular angle grinder abrasive wheel that was somewhat worn from previous use. The working edge was fairly well beveled and rounded so as mentioned above, I slowly and gently used just the rounded edge of the wheel to knock down the bead. When I got fairly close to flush I switched to a...

Mostly, my vote is RWL in. I'm just not a fan.

My first (of many) post-retirement Mopar(s) that got me back in the game after 40 years of drought...

The nicest Mopar I own, a 72 Coronet wagon. Love this car!

Seems like $1K CDN is a popular guess - that's where I was going. You'd be advised to go into this with both eyes open. Rust never travels alone, and the torsion bar crossmember is a big deal. Where there's that kind of rot, it's almost guaranteed there is LOTS more to be had. And not to...

If available I'll take the Dart

You are singing my song, sir. The wagon is still in shake-down mode, but as I get more miles on it and gradually take it further from home, it gets closer to road trip status. I'm with you, I want it to be a cruiser that can go anywhere. It's all original and I intend to keep it that way, more...

I'm thinking, the owner of this car has little to no concern about it getting stolen.

Here's another vote for the Innova from Amazon. I had an old old Sears dial back that was not good at all, now retired for the Innova.
