    Is there a “good enough” when lining up oil holes in cam bearing installation?

    Thank you, I've never seen a "rat Tail file" before.

    Anyone Know Any Details About This Terrible Tragedy?

    It's been explained to me that any product, regardless of what it is, is considered a total loss when in a transit accident. Shipping containers, tractor trailers, etc. The manufacturer assumes insurance responsibilities on the freight. So, as a precaution against future litigation they just...

    Anyone Know Any Details About This Terrible Tragedy?

    There's another photo out there of train wrecked C bodies, but I think they are '69 models so they may have happened more than once, or this occurred right at model change over.

    What is your dream car?

    40 years later, my dream car is still a '57 300C 2-door hardtop, would be awesome to own Randy Guyer's 300C with crank windows and a manual seat.

    440 TNT rebuild

    What brand lifters do you guys recommend to use with Comp 268/280 Lift .477/.480? Reading many horror stories about wiped cam lobes probably due to poor Comp lifter quality. Thanks.

    Sanden conversion or RV2 Rebuild?

    i bought my rebuilt RV2 from this guy. The AC is running perfectly and blowing COLD (on 134 conversion) for 4 years now. Had no problems whatsoever, and no leaks. The system is holding charge, and no refill required as of yet. I paid 380 usd incl tax & shipping. I have a 71 Newport 2dr 383 auto.

    Sold Polara on Hemmings

    Back in the 90’s an uncle of mine had one just like that. He bought it used, and it was mint . 318 with a three on the tree. Wish I had that car now, seemed pretty unusual.

    Anyone Know Any Details About This Terrible Tragedy?

    At one time, I worked for an auto salvage company that bought several vehicles that were involved in a train wreck, and were sold at auction for salvage. I don’t recall the brand, Acura/Infinity, etc., but one car I recall clearly. It was a top of the line model, leather, etc., the only damage...

    Hello All, new project

    So I do have a question for the ones wiser than I. Is it still count as original if I am forced to use a aftermarket part that is OE equivalent

    Anyone Know Any Details About This Terrible Tragedy?

    Given the liability of selling a car that could have received structural damage and become a legal safety problem or ongoing warranty issue, it was probably smarter and safer to just salvage them, collect the insurance and build a new car. This is a good example as to why the 'built' and 'sold'...

    No apology necessary to me, I would've simply moved them without any fanfare if I was able to.

    What is your dream car?

    Mine is probably the car sitting next to my other 99 cars if we are dreaming. And they don't have to be quality ill take quantity. I was probably most passionate about a green A12 Bee 40 years ago.. A hemi roadrunner came into my sphere somewhat recently and it dawned on me that it was well...

    Electric Car Fire at my Neighbors

    I can't speak for all Ukrainians of course, but in my experience with them, and there are many out here, as well as Russians. They are very successful in their endeavors. Much more so than Americans are. Their Scruples are different having come from a very oppressed culture, but their grit and...

    Alternator Brushes

    How does that alternator tool hold the alternator? Does the end with the longer tip hook into the cooling holes/slots? Would be very nice to have but I've been getting by so far with a crowbar for both that and the power steering pump. Found an ebay listing for the tool which had a picture...

    Anyone Know Any Details About This Terrible Tragedy?

    Well I wonder if they got squeezed or salvaged? May have been more cost effective to let them go to salvage in the clean up effort. If so, the cars would have been reordered leading to a net gain of C body global inventory? The carriers insurance would have paid out, so unless there were...
