Uncle Google says more than 50% of us worked in the food industry at one point in our lives. Maybe you still do even? At any rate, tell me your story! Me? I worked as a dishwasher in a Chinese restaurant for under a year in high school. I was the only guy in the kitchen that spoke english other...

As previously said, don't do anything until you assess the engine. Start with a compression test. That will give you a good idea if the valves and/or rings/cylinders are worth doing anything in the short-term. If compression is uneven, then I'd take the heads off to investigate more. If...

Another tire you could look at is the Milestar Streetsteel. They are in the same class as the BFG and Cooper Cobra and less expensive than both. I just put a new set on driver Charger and they are ok. I only say that because they perform fine - I'm just not thrilled with the name and visual...

Not sure why you are running such a small tire as 225/60 anyway. You have a lot more room in the wheel wells to fill up, get better traction, etc. Depending on what wheels you have, I'd go bigger.

Ditch 'em. Coopers Cobras are a little less expensive and have a nicer looking tread IMO.

Dang. That is super cool. If you find two let me know! :thumbsup:

When they said "you might live to be 80" they never told you that the last 20 years is going to be a battle. You have to change some habits and just make the most of it. Good luck!

The one that Wilwood says works with their brakes.

I use auto body shop light clear plastic covers. They are cheap, allow you to see the car, and you just toss them when they get too dusty. eBay or Amazon.

Quite frankly, if you are the type to complain about who won what and for what reason, you will almost never be happy participating in judged car shows.

Lost a pal last year for cancer misdiagnosed not once, but twice. Remember when you got sick as kid, mom called the doctor and you got in that day, and nobody worried about the cost? I am a capitalist - it's what built this great country.... but it is completely clear that capitalism must be...

The 73-74 GTX cars are somewhat rare, so expect to pay a little more. There is a pretty big price gap between "drivetrain may or may not work" and beyond general condition, colors, drivetrain and options DO matter so I'm not even going to try. Just start looking. They come on FB Marketplace...

If the bolt does not work, install a stud. Simple fix. Otherwise, count me as another McRobb guy.

Certainly some of the stuff is sold by Laysons but shipped from the manufacturer. Hence the shipping cost. They have a warehouse, but it is not Amazon-sized. But why don't you just ask Rick any questions you have? They are as close as a phone call.

I think the question most important to yourself is: After all this and in feeling you were wronged, do you still want to work for these people?

I have been there: When I returned my lemon Ram to the dealer a decade ago (after a long drawn-out process), I was DONE with new vehicles. I ended up buying TWO 70's 3/4T Chevy truck to daily drive. I figured between the two of them at least one would be up and running at any time, and I could...

I would probably say it was a 76 Volare Wagon factory 318 4-speed car. It had a swapped in 340 cam, eddy intake + 4bbl, cop wheels, 255/60/15's all around, and cop sway bar. I drove it everyday with gusto and put 50,000 miles on it for the grand total investment of ......$500. It never let me...

Any pre-lean slant 6 car/truck with 833 overdrive was and would be my choice. Both this engine an transmission have stellar service records. A 318 in lieu of slant 6 or 904 in lieu of 833 would be second-tier choices. Mid-late 70's will have hardened seat for unleaded gas. There is a huge range...

Just went to the Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum in McMinville OR friday.... saw the Spruce Goose, an SR71, a Texan, 177 Stealth fighter, X-11 replica, and a wonderfully restored DC3 amongst many others, and something I did not expect that was super exciting: 1 of 9 (?) surviving ME262 jet...

I will never be able to settle for just one nice car because polishing, cleaning, and kicking tires are not where I get my kicks. I have to be racing, driving, and building stuff.
