So I searched the forum for a thread like this and didn't find anything. I figured it would be fun to have a thread that everyone can watch what everyone is doing each week. This week I put on Steelcraft nerf bars, and right now I'm getting the permaplating put on the truck. This way it gets a real good bath.

Replacing the springs in the seats turned out to be relatively cheap and easy. I bought a 38 foot roll of 9 gauge zigzag wire which is enough for 2 bucket seat bottoms with about 6 feet left over. The seat backs are 11 gauge, mine are in good shape so I am not replacing them, just the bottoms. A quick look at a Utube vid or two, and figure out how to bend them. I made my benders out of some scrap 1” angle with rebar handles, took about 20 minutes. The roll of spring wire was 40 bucks off... Read more

I have bought, sold, and collected cars for over 40 years and just got my first Mopar. A lady I had never met before saw an ad I had on Craigslist and called me. Her husband passed away a little over a year ago and she wanted his car out of the yard. She told me if I would come pick it up, I could have it. So, I am the proud owner of a 1968 Dodge Dart 4-door. It has the 225 I6 and 86,000 documented original miles. It took me less than 10 minutes to get it running after towing it home. I have... Read more

Hey everyone. Currently working on a friend’s coronet. There are two wires coming out of the dizzy connected to the vacuum advance coming from a black box. They have a dual blade locked connector at the dizzy end and a male bullet and a female spade at the other end.

I had a 74 v8 fj40 back in early 2000’s. Had a radical cam, a spring over, no traction bar and Detroit’s front and rear lol! We did rubithon a couple times like that and I “learnt” ALOT. It was a love hate relationship! Now decades later I just bought an all original 74 40. Runs and drives but I’m going thru all the age related issues. It’s an Arizona truck with no cancer! Rebuilt carb but need to find a better accelerator pump! Changed the original Toyota shocks but stripped the thread... Read more

I have a 2023 Ioniq 6 with the original 12 VDC battery installed. It's getting long in the tooth, and I don't want to get stranded somewhere when it dies. Is it prudent with these EVs to take the car to a battery shop and have the battery tested and replaced before it fails?

So now that the season is over I figured id give an overview. First off last off-season we had to tear down the 372 and found some problems that made us go up to a 4.00" crank from the 3.58". Had to have a new set of main caps installed as well as the 3 centers were loose. So we ended up going with another machinst at the start of the upgrade to the 418" and couldnt be happier with the results. So this is what the 418" has in it. First off its a 1971 340 block now with a molnar 4.00... Read more

Wasn’t going to post this but changed my mind after reading some recent “score” posts. Over the last couple of years I’ve thought about building an engine run stand just to “dial things in” check for things like leaks, etc. before I install an engine. Some of the kits are not bad, and I could just build one from stuff I have laying around (like the K-member on wheels I saw) but all of that takes time, and I already have more projects than I’ll live to finish. Then this run stand popped up on... Read more

1973 Plymouth duster. Runs. Drives. Stops. Body is SOLID no rust!! Its an auto, ac, power steering, disk brake car. Originally red but has been painted orange. I think with some elbow grease the original red could come back with some good patina. Has an aluminum radiator with electric fan, msd ignition. Otherwise its all stock. No leaks. I recently rebuilt the carb. It needs a new fuel tank sending unit and the wiring for the ignition switch ironed out (it works it just finicky). With those... Read more

Looking to sell my 1966 Dodge Charger. 383 4bbl, 4 speed with Sure Grip. It’s been in storage for last 25 years. Still has Certicard and has Original Window Sticker and Invoice Receipt from 1966. Just shy of 89k miles. I’d also appreciate any recommendations of where to list it and how much it's worth. .

I've been dealing with knock control spikes over the last couple months. Usually up to .65 but last week I got a spike up to .84. This always happens at light throttle, highway cruising. Always in 5th or 6th gear at lowish RPMs (below 3k). I thought it might be my A/C compressor but it does it even without using A/C. I've filled up at three different stations now so I don't think fuel quality is the issue. Any ideas on what could be causing this? I already put in fresh plugs a month... What causes knock control spikes?

hello! I’ve been in awe of the Lucid Air for years, but only just bought one last week through a third party dealer. I now have a 2023 Air Pure AWD in Stellar White with Mojave PurLuxe interior. There is still a year (or 10k) left on the original warranty. I already have a service appointment for this coming week to upgrade to CCCV2 and perform a maintenance and inspection. I am coming from a Volkswagen iD.4, so I am already pretty familiar with software…quirks. I haven’t spent much time... Read more

I have a 4160 Holley 600 vacuum secondary carb on my 400. The part throttle response is great, but I wonder if it could use more cfm. I did some searching and it appears the 650 has the same venturi diameters but uses the larger 750 base plate (1 11/16 vs 1 9/16). Some internet searching indicates swapping the baseplates might be possible. Has anyone ever done this?

Does anyone have experience or knowledge on how to disconnect the e-brake cable from the lever on an early A-body? I need to swap out that section of cable from the brake plate and need to disconnect the cable from the lever to remove the original one. Conversely, how do you secure the replacement cable to the lever? Thanks!
