    Private messages

    How many of you get a private message now and then asking you about a car you have for sale yet you have NO car for sale. Third time this year for me. Latest is about a phantom 74 Charger I supposedly have for sale.

    YOM PLates

    Part of my restoration was to always get correct YOM plates for the Polara. The seven digit white and blue plates look so wrong on an older car. Maybe not to younger folks but to me they are an eye sore. Well today was the day to go down to the DMV. I went to Window 18 and when I arrived I asked...

    I got a Station Wagon!

    Sorry, it is not a Town and Country. In fact it is a very rare station wagon as only 5624 units were made and I cannot recall ever seeing one in my entire life. However, when I saw the front profile of the car I was taken and had to find out more. Only a few pictures now as the car is still at...

    NOT MINE 1966 New Yorker

    This is posted on Facebook and normally I wouldn't bother putting it up here after looking at it. However, I think it is a good example of how a seller is detached from reality when selling a car. I don't know about you but this isn't fair condition in my book and for some reason doesn't...

    An interesting background

    I check Craigslist every night and saw this ad for a Pinto wagon in the Sacramento region. Yet what caught my attention was everything in the background. Great for car spotters.

    Hood release

    I moved my Polara back into the driveway today after doing transmission work on the Le Sabre and went to open the hood as I always disconnect the battery. The inside remote hood release failed to operate even though it worked 5 hours earlier. Now how do I get it to open? That egg crate grille...

    Roadmaster

    This Roadmaster wagon caught my attention and while I was admiring it's massive qualities I failed to pay attention to the upper right background until later.

    For amusement only...

    This guy is a real A-hole. Just about everything one doesn't like in a seller this fellow exhibits. Got to read his content on this real 1975 Dodge Charger R/T so he says. Tons of pictures where all I see is trash but as always in the eyes of the seller. No one here is buying this thing of that...

    NOT MINE 1967 Chrysler Newport 4 dr HT - $4,400 (Sacramento)

    Not mine of course and would usually ignore because this one is in bad shape. Yet seeing as how the seller calls the condition fair I thought I would post it. There is also that subtle ultimatum at the end. condition: fair cylinders: 8 cylinders drive: rwd fuel: gas odometer: 66000 paint...

    Dramatic battery discharge

    Not in my Polara but the Mercury. I was working on cleaning up the power window motor on the passenger side. I wanted to see it in action with the panels off to see why slow. So I connected the battery and nothing from it's switch. I then tried the main switch and got nothing. I then decided to...

    NOT MINE Custom 1960 dodge PIONEER Gotta share

    This was too good not to share. Out of the region around Reno. Looks like a V6 to me as I only see three plug wires on one side. $7K Does have many of the classic Craigslist catch words: custom, fast, too much to list, street legal, must sell, disability CUSTOM 1960 dodge PIONEER - cars &...

    Strange private messages

    How many of you get private messages from whoever (always brand new members no posts) saying they are interested in buying that car or a part and you have no clue as to who they are and why? Just got another one in the last day about buy the car and ship to PA.

    Crap, rear ended by a Tesla!

    I'm off Wednesdays but pick my son up from school at 2:55 down the road. The road being US 680 about 10 miles and then back home. Traffic pattern has heavy traffic starting at 2:45 on both 680 North from the San Jose region and CA 24 East from the San Francisco region. Like this for 20 years. I...

    360 4 bbl intake

    I have been looking into obtaining the above intake for future use on my 360 with 2 bbl intake. Don't want an aftermarket. Now my question pertains to the port size. Is there just one version of the 4 bbl for use on all LA engines or were there different versions based on engine size?

    Correct clamp

    So the time has come to find out what was the correct way to secure the vacuum brake line to the booster and the nipple on the intake. I currently have it secured by two small worm gear fasteners and it is beginning to irritate me every time I see those two. My Fords use a small band and a tool...

    Lt. W.B. "Willie" Sharp

    I mentioned him in another thread but lo and behold he showed up yesterday. Way up in the Island I heard the lift running and looked over the side to see Willie walking off the lift using his walker. Didn't get over to say Hi till noon during my lunch as I was busy with other tasks. Willie was...

    People and Museums

    I don't know what it is that people who visit museums or similar protected sights do not understand about don't touch. When in college, 1974, the environmental science class went down to a protected marine area off Scripps to practice laying out squares to count animal types and quantity. While...

    New tire drive

    I had new tires put on about two months ago but never got to try them out on a longer highway drive. Short hops around town told me nothing unusual. With me testing out suspension changes to the Park Lane that had my attention and use all of June. The new tires are the Kinergy ST WSW in...
