I said 10 years ago when I remove the cast exhaust manifolds again, I would ceramic coat them. I am very happy with the look and hope the external heat reduction will keep the paint from cooking off the bottom of my valve covers.

I had a post about swapping out my original 516 heads and after you guys comments I decided to recondition what I have. I got lucky last Sunday and had a beautiful sunny day in Ohio to work in the unheated garage. They came off without any issue. The good news I will hopefully have them back by...

We had a nice first annual car show this weekend in my community. We were basically at capacity for the space of around 170 cars. I love how there is always that guy showing his car which was ordered from the factory, and it's claim of 1 or 1. This one caught my attention because of the...

1970s Dodge Van Turned Boat Could Storm the Beaches of Margaritaville I found this article interesting. I find it rather scary that a fireplace was an option on this boat. It is pictured inside on one of the photos and appears open flame wood burning fireplace. What could possibly go wrong there?

Goldie I suspect has burnt valves. I am going to confirm this tomorrow. I have never performed any internal work on the engine, except change the timing belt and cam 10 years ago. I am not looking for anything which will change her drivability. She has a 383, factory 4 barrel, cast exhaust...

I was going to lunch this week and noticed the 300 on the trailer. Not certain the white one sitting on the ground is still there, but there is a strong possibility, because I think there was another vehicle in front of it. I couldn't snap picture because of the traffic, I pulled this off...

I pulled this video from a post. It was mentioned that the 1960 300 was only available in 4 colors but it may have been a factory option color similar to the New Yorker Iris. If it was a true original factory installed color would it be documented any where on the car like the fender tag?

Goldie hasn't been running great all summer, but going out to dinner last night, it got much worse. It definitely seemed like a fuel delivery issue. I haven't changed the fuel filter for several years and I still have my original refurbished tank so that seemed like a logical place to start. I...

This just popped up, everything on the right side is fine. The left side blinks at the same frequency as the right side, but every bulb barely lights from dash, fender, front and rear. Ground issue somewhere?

After finally sorting out my brake issue, I have decided to install new wheels and tires. Based on other threads posted here I have bought American Racing V501 17 X 7 and installing 235 60 R17 tires. I was able to install my old bullseye center cap after I clipped the legs off the old...

I did the 73 disc brake conversion on Goldie, my '66 300. Everything that could go wrong seemed to go wrong. Even with a reoccurring irritating issue, I never regretted the conversion because it can stop on a dime now. The very irritating problem is the front right caliper would grab after you...

Totally different hobby but you guys have an incredible collective mind to restore and improve parts, because we can't just go out and buy many items for our c-bodies. Here is what I got. The is a design flaw in the upper area of my big jukebox door. I damaged mine and was able to buy a donor...

I was watching a reboot of "The Wonder Years", this sitcom is set in the mid 60s. The dad in the series drives a really nice Sport Fury. I saw some interior shots in the previous episode but this one had a nice exterior shot as they walked up to the car.

Drove Goldie to pick up pizza for a pizza dinner cruise.

I am watching the Stanley Cup and there in a Captial One commercial was a convertible 300 parked at a drive-in theater. :)

I was going out to a to a graduation party took a side road I rarely drive down, just 2 miles from my house; and there a beautiful '68 convertible sitting in the driveway. I have never seen this car in the area, anyone from this forum?? If you are you will probably have a visitor today. :)...

I see the coolest things being worked on in the jukebox service store. This is a 40s record player which can play both sides of up to 12 stacked records. It had 2 speeds and 2 tone arms to play both 78 and 33 speed records. This is a working version of a similar Capehart.

I going to try this out on one of my jukeboxes not Goldie. I am looking for a cheap alternative. If I actually got all the chrome done on any of the jukeboxes, I would have double what it is worth, just in the chrome plating. I have reading different sources and one thing they all agree on, if...
