Our Own FBBO "Power Tour" Mopar Car Tour
I will be embarking on a small, long weekend classic car tour. Join us for all or part of the trip if you like!
General Themes/ Plans/ Rules:
Any person my...
When we started the FBBO tent activities quite a few years ago, we were hoping to expand the tent size and encourage site members to get together and have a good time. I am happy to note that we have been extremely successful doing that. Once @Pistol Pete got involved the food became awesome...
For sale is my used Craftsman MIG welder and regulator. Price is $100 USD firm. (Reason I am selling it is I upgraded my welder to a Lincoln Electric 120/240 volt unit.)
I would say that the unit is in very good to excellent shape. Everything works and you may certainly try it if you want to...

Hi Folks,
Due to requests from people on the site, @Joeychgo has created a What's It Worth (WIW) forum. It is in Mopar Parts and Cars Marketplace
Here is the forum (at the bottom of the list):
PLEASE READ THE RULES FOR THIS FORUM, regardless if you are posting a new thread or commenting on...
For sale is an Eastwood 3000lb Rotisserie used to restore a GTX. It was used once for that purpose - that's it. It is like new.
Rotisserie is located in Lansdale, PA, 19446. Shipping (including packing it up for shipment) would be the responsibility of the purchaser. It can be brought free to...
I need some help from the brain trust here please! First some specs:
* Small block LA 340, bored .030" over
* Stroker crank, so now displaces 416 CI
* HAD a hydraulic flat tappet cam (more on that below)
* Aluminum Renegade brand heads
* 1.5 ratio roller rockers
* New hydraulic lifter cam...
My 2020 Ram has been trouble free with 45,000 miles on it so far. But then, the right exhaust manifold cracked and it had to be fixed. This is a common flaw with the 5.7 Hemi (at least in trucks). So I brought it in the dealer to fix this under warranty plus do a state inspection. They called me...
I'll try to tell a story and channel a bit of @moparedtn although I'll never do stories as good as Ed....
So when I got back from my 2022 drive across country I was driving my 73 Road Runner quite a bit - using it like an (almost) daily driver. I found that I really enjoyed driving a classic...
My father-in-law has a real deal Z-11 1962 bubble top Bel Air race car. It runs a 409 and is his pride and joy - he drives it now at nostalgic races and such.
Anyway, I found the matchbox size model pictured below.
Can the model above be painted to match his actual car (see pictures below)...
I have a big block water pump housing as shown below; it has part number 3698468. It looks like a good, useable core but needs to be cleaned up before use.
Price: I don't want this to go to a reseller - rather, I want it to go to someone who truly needs it. So send me a PM explaining your car...
Found and purchased. This thread no longer valid.
I am building my buddy's 440 (RB) big block. We have a set of Stage VI aluminum heads. However, when used with a 440, it is my understanding that adapter plates are needed between the heads and the intake manifold - OR - a special Stage VI...
So I have had a strange sequence of events and wanted to post about them here and see what the FBBO brain trust thinks...
Background: I have owned a 15 HP Exmark Lazer Z industrial walk behind mower for 22 years. The mower has been flawless for all those years with zero mechanical issues - just...
This thread is dedicated to my first car that I just recently sold.
First of all, I will try to channel my inner @moparedtn and tell a story here. I'm sure it won't be near as good as his are, but hopefully folks will enjoy it. Secondly, @PlymCrazy posted a thread awhile back cataloging cars...
I need to work on the A/C systems for at least two different cars. I am tired of (a) leaving my car with unknown shops and (b) paying big dollars for A/C work. So I want to get the tools I need so I can work on A/C repairs myself. Previously, I have just shoved cans of R134a into the system with...
Should we do a FxBO mini tour?
So I took a quick informal poll at the FBBO tent at Carlisle to see if members would be interested in doing a little Mopar tour that we managed on our own. Some had fun calling it the HawkRod Power Tour, but I think Hot Rod magazine might have issue with that...
I'm helping my buddy sell his Eastwood 3000lb Rotisserie he used to restore his car. It was used once for that purpose - that's it. It is like new.
Rotisserie is located in Lansdale, PA. Shipping (including packing it up for shipment) would be the responsibility of the purchaser. It can be...
We can find small "nits" on almost any car, but there are lots that are really well done. It's hard to argue with the design of a 68 Charger or a 63 split window Corvette. Likewise, there are cars that are just plain ugly. Remember the AMC Pacer and the Pontiac Aztek?
But then there are some...
@Nxcoupe had a great idea to better be able to meet some of our FBBO friends (outside of the picnic, of course) as well as support our FBBO folks that have vendor spaces.
If you have vending spots, please let us know where so we can find you (and your first name too).
If you have a car...
With apologies I am WAY behind this year with Carlisle plans. I had to build an engine and then participate in the Hot Rod Power Tour so my time has been taken up doing that.
Same as last year, I will be hosting some tent activities. Thanks to your registrations last year, we were the fourth...
