Money is replaceable. Memories and people are not. These cars are repositories of memories. I was fortunate to marry a friend who understands sentiment. Sure, she is very frugal as well and says things about money, but she understands. It's all about balance.

When my wife and I were young and poor we got a cream puff 75 Charger from my sister. With a 360. We sold it sometime in the 90s to a younger, poorer couple. I really wish I had that car back in good condition. NICE cars. Junior came home from the hospital in the Charger. That's the bag on...

It's a dressed up second gen Barracuda front with mediocre Dodge rear. I continue to hope that the Road Runner badge is safe from being stuck on some modern abomination by marketing morons. Sales weasels and Mad Men. It should be rightfully retired like they do outstanding sports ball player's...

Hell Michigan , huh. Why not just call it Gehenna? "Down to Gehenna or up to The Throne, he travels fastest that travels alone." Extra credit to anyone that knows what fairly recent movie used the Kipling quote. No cheating. Ya have to have watched the movie and not a web search.

Someone likes blue. Nice "birds". A few years ago. I was sitting at my vet waiting on my little dog having her teeth cleaned. This younger woman was having trouble with a big active hound puppy. Every few seconds the dog would bay and she was trying to pay. So I offered to hold the dog outside...

I'll race any new car with my 318. But first we drain the crankcases.

"Does this car make me look fat?"

I made these up with with a cut and paste from the 1969 factory prints. This is the way I do it for future trouble shooting. I find having something that looks like the original prints on them is helpful for reference. I did find some errors on the wires at the turn signal flasher IIRC...

I feel more like Al. Except they probably will throw The Dodge in on top of me. I'm putting a TTI system on the RR and trying to figure out how far the tips are supposed to stick out. It's different from the factory. The bracket is on the pipe and I've got to cut the pipe back to install the...

Seriously? A Nova. Should have traded it for an A body at least. Duster or Dart Sport or Demon.

This seems a classic example where a test light beats a test meter. Puts a load on the wires, connection or battery power supply Looking at the OP it now jumps out that the OP was referring to digital indications as well that did come on.

I see rust that probably needs repairing at the lower rear wheel well. I see rust at the hood lip. It may be razor thin there. Rust behind the rocker trim? Who knows how bad. Like Russ says it COULD need a new cowl top at least (window channel) Won't know about the cowl bottom without a...

I have some limited knowledge. My guess is that unless it is exactly the same kind of stainless it might be a different color. I also think TIG is the only option for it. And the person doing the welding should be very good. Warpage might also be a minor issue. However, on a positive note, it's...

The buzz kill is the ad. I just looked at the pretty pictures. Dealers. SMH. Like one of those insipid real estate ads for a property. Blah, blah, blah. My eyes crossed and I didn't bother reading it for the detail.

I've never had much use for dealers in the hobby. Seems to me that they hurt more than help. Dealer mark up and hoard cars from people that might be able to use them. One came and looked at a 340 T/A engine Challenger I was selling about 21 years ago, before things went nuts. I had told people...

Top reply. @jseal21 17 hours ago Somebody is bound to throw shade on this video but don't listen! You're doing God's work warning people off of these crooks! Thanks.

If you are asking for opinions on the aesthetics , I don't think white letters will do anything for the car. Defeats the whole mean business or poverty look. And I just don't like them on a Road Runner. Maybe on an E body? Or a Chevy. Then again if you are going for this.

I just got through painting one of my cars (again). Comes from not having a inside paint booth. Nice accent. Nice color. But as much work as it is to paint one, I would have gone ahead and gotten rid of the vinyl top while I was doing a "tribute" car.
