Here are two different styles of Mopar chronometers. The left is the type that mechanically turns drums with the numbers on them. The one on the right is a solid state version with LED numbers. I want to make use of them as garage cave clocks. The electrical hook up for the one on the left is...

My biggest hobby, after my RT, is antique and vintage tube and transistor radios. When I saw this radio, I thought it was oddly unusual and cool. Since I bought it, I have been on the lookout at garage and Estate Sales for an appropriate slide for it. A few days ago I came across one I thought...

I came across these two items at the flea market today. I have a couple other similar spare key holders, but this is the first one that came with the fake cardboard key. The key is mysterious to me. It has on it DPCD, so it is obviously has some connection to Mopar. On the other side, you can...

I found some interesting Mopar items at a recent sale. A couple of warranty brochures. An auto pilot brochure. I wasn’t aware that Mopar was the very first auto company to offer cruise control. After looking at the brochure, I guess these first cruise control units didn’t have a resume feature...

I was watching a 1959 film titled The World, the Flesh, and the Devil. Harry Belafonte finds himself in a post nuclear war world. He goes into a car dealership and hotwires himself a 1958 Chrysler 300 convertible. As he is under the dash, there is a great shot of the car’s beautiful dashboard. I...

I am sure that a huge percentage of the guys on this forum assembled model kit cars. A friend of mine had a brother who at one time worked at AMT. I came across a couple of things that belonged to him. It looks like there was an employee newsletter, probably issued monthly. Also, you will notice...

I found this neon clock at an estate sale for two bucks. As you can see, I modified it a little.

I came across this radio shack, intermittent wiper module. I have seen these in the past, and even have two or three of them in my collection, but I am stumped by the dual controls. The left thumb wheel is labeled interval, and the right is labeled sweeps. Interval is self evident, but I am...

I found this bumper jack today at an estate sale. I know that these T shaped masts are usually sought after. I am not even certain which car manufacturer it is from. There is a number on the hook. 1380855. Anybody have any clues?

I came across this article about the two Chargers in the movie Bullit. It seems that stunt driver, Bill Hickman, who drove the Charger, and also acted in the film, was the person that bought the two cars for the film. The two cars were originally painted yellow and blue. You can see the blue...

Last Sunday I went to an estate sale And saw a pretty unique old target game. It was a version of the shoot the bear game. Instead of shooting a bear with a rifle, this version used Tojo as the target.

I saw this at a sale today and I just had to grab it. I paid a buck for it. When I got it home and hooked it up to power I was pleasantly surprised that it seems to be working.

I recently came across what looks to be NOS 1965 Belvidere and satellite bumper guards. They came in the original boxes from the Chrysler parts division. Included in the boxes were installation instructions. I am including them here for anyone’s use.

A friend came across this ad and texted it to me

I had to stop and get a pic with this convertible

I am trying to determine if the blower fan in my furnace is connected so that the motor runs at its highest RPM possible. On the board labeled ignition, the two wires that are connected to the tabs labeled heat and cool are connected to the brown and yellow wires coming from the motor. The black...

I found this at an estate sale this past week

The movie Fireball 500 just ended. Made in 1966 with Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, and Fabian. Frankie drives around in a George Barris customized Charger. The final part of the movie is the Daytona 500 race. Frankie Avalon is driving a Petty blue Plymouth numbered 43. Fabian is also...

Pics from the annual cruise

It’s not on the screen more than five seconds. I’m figuring it to be a 69 roadrunner. The ad is for Wegovy
