    Making new fender tag

    Lots of people can and will make a fender tag. The question is how much accuracy is important to you. MOST of the vendors, and some will probably be mentioned in this thread, can stamp codes into a piece of metal and call it good. You'll pay a couple of hundred of dollars for what you may or...

    72 Satellite Gen III Hemi Restomod

    Nice picture, good to see the original clearance. That might as well be a foot compared to what I have. I'm estimating 1/32" for mine. Maybe a 1/16th if I'm lucky. That's after the studs have flattened that side of the spring off and I ground down the heads of the studs a bit. Hopefully...

    Another shortened Boeing product was the Boeing 720. Sometimes nicknamed as Boeing's 'Thunderbird', it was a shortened 707 with good performance. The first aircraft produced went to United Airlines, who set a speed record from London to Karachi, averaging 583 mph. for the trip. One of the...

    Tire diameter effect on rollout and reaction time improvements

    I changed tire size last year halfway through the year. I went back and do the math on the before & after. My times did move in the direction the theory says they should by .013. Now, was that completely due to the change, or just coincidental, or maybe some semblance of both??? I’ll never...

    Glue type for gluing on a wood base to a large can with a rusty bottom?

    Polyester resin is the usual polymer, but if you want superior adhesion, something that will sink in and grab hold of the base metal, you'll want to use epoxy resin. It costs more but has less odor, less shrinkage, and much better bonding strength.

    Haven't seen the ads...I haven't watched a football game in my life. Haven't watched a hockey game either.

    Who Likes Aircraft ?

    While the 747 was planned on carrying more passengers than anyone else, some airlines wanted a somewhat smaller verison, something that would compete with the DC-10 or Lockheed L-1011. So, Boeing shortened their 747 and created the 747SP. It was originally 'SB' for 'Short Body', but changed to...

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    While I don't believe SD has any more checkpoints of any other state, like NM, reservations play a big roll in the number of DUI's. A drive thru Gallup or Grants NM on a sunday morning will confirm. There's quite a few passed out in local bar parking lots with even some leaning against...

    Casting date on heads

    I would think that that could be correct if there's no reason to suspect that they aren't original. The castings were piled up on pallets and left to "season." If a particular pallet didn't get shuffled to the front of the line it could have gotten buried in fresh castings and lingered for a...

    Stellantis Brings The HEMI Back !!

    Not quite...they did sell 120,000 of those vans. Which is more than all models of Chrysler cars sold in 1974 (107059 units). They'll be back, the new models are in the wings. Money is being invested in Chrysler, the minivan is being updated with a new model for 2026 (next year). Although the...
