Well, maybe not yet... My 14 year old grand daughter (my oldest son's oldest kid) decided to take the DDP class at school. Yeah, I had to ask what it was too.. Design, Drawing and Production class. The school she attends understands that kids need to learn some hands on skills. As it turns...

A lot of you probably got the Hagerty email with this in it. After reading it, I figured it was mostly common sense but I thought it was worth sharing as there's been some discussion about scammers. If nothing else, the video is worth a chuckle. 5 Tips to Spot a Classic Car Scam Online -...

When I bought my 300L last summer, I thought the New Yorker tail lights would grow on me... and they just didn't. I do like them, but not on my car. I scored some nice red lenses and polished them up... Sorry no pics of that... But 1200 grit paper followed by Meguirs 105 rubbing compound...

I'd like to find a pair of reverse lenses for my '65 Chrysler. Looking for good quality used. Will also buy individual lens if that's what you have. These would be the ones used with red tail lights, used with 300 and Newport, not with the clear New Yorker tail lights. The difference is the...

Some of you guys know I have a messed up neck. It's a long story, but C5-C7 is fused and I have a lot of arthritis and other issues. Turning my head to back any of the cars up is tough. (I don't need advice about my neck) In my Ford Edge, I have a built in backup camera and it's getting so I...

Typical of most C-bodies, this car doesn't have an oil pressure or temperature gauge. I've figured my old cars should have those two gauges, plus a voltmeter. I've never been one to just bolt in some gauges. I like to see them look appropriate to the interior of the car. For example, my '65...

First, kudos for adding that to the Members listings. As the hobby grays, we loose too many of these guys that have contributed to the forum. Notable members It's good that we recognize their passing. Missed one though... and he contributed a lot to our group. Fury440. R.I.P. Bill...

A week or so ago, I was talking with @polaratherapy about some issues he was having with his gas gauge. It seems to me that we have this question come up on an almost weekly basis. We all try to help and somehow, it usually comes together. It hit me that a simple flow chart, showing what to...

I've been seeing these: For Chrysler Mopar 8-3/4" Sure-Grip / Power-Lock Posi Unit - 30 Spline 8.75" | eBay and I've been wondering if anyone has bought and used one. The used stuff I see is usually a complete unit with gears and carrier and that's great, but I have the gears I want and a...

What is everyone paying to have axle bearings pressed on? I'm trying to justify the cost of a Harbor Fright hydraulic press. I don't use a press that often, and before I retired, I had access to a press at work. The press is $170, about $184 by the time I pay sales tax. Doing the press work...

"Effective immediately: Atco Dragway is permanently closed. We will not be open from this point on. The remainder of our schedule for 2023 will be canceled. Thank you all for your patronage and memories over the years. Special thank you to our 29th annual Pan American Nationals racers & crowd...

Anyone who owns an early Barracuda has heard the TV reality story where the assclowns broke a rear window and how valuable and rare it is. At about every show, you get someone that believed it telling you the story. One other thing is just about every early Barracuda owner has is a spare rear...

Anybody else going? Syracuse Nationals I know @cbarge said he was. I'll have both 300s in the Horticulture Building, same place as last year. Over 8000 pre 1993 cars of all types.

A lot of you guys know I have a '10 Ford Ranger. It is the perfect truck for me... I don't tow or haul anything big anymore so I don't need or want a big truck. Most of my hauling is branches and brush to the dump or maybe some plywood from Lowes Depot. I don't want a big truck... I don't need...

I learned to check under the lift a little better when letting it down. This stool has served me well over the years.... Lot's of brake jobs and car waxing... It's a shame it went out this way. It'll probably get replaced with a Harbor Fright stool.

1965 300L. 413 with 727 with console and cable shift. Driving it today, I went to downshift into 2nd gear as I was going down a long hill, 35-40 MPH I pulled the shifter back to 2nd and it didn't shift. Nothing. I shifted back to drive. When I got a little farther down the hill and slowed...

The smoke from the wild fires in Quebec is hanging heavy over our area. It's bad... Hazy and eye burning. I was planning on doing some washing and waxing this afternoon... I'm staying inside.

I attended my first 300 club meet this past weekend. What a great time! @Ripinator was there too! It was at the AACA Museum with the hotel right next door. We got a guided tour of the museum that included the restoration shops and storage. I didn't take as many pics as I should have, (as...

Keeping with what is now a 30+ year tradition, the local high school did their Crystal Ball Cruise. Local car guys volunteer to take the Seniors to their Senior Ball and back. We get fed and play trivia while they have fun. It's a great time and I've done it off and on since the first time. I...
