    Getting rich on Rage-Bait... most YouTube car pages suck.

    He was local to the Detroit area and went by "OneBadSuperbird" on Moparts. And about a half-dozen other names after he kept getting booted off. I can't believe I remember that!

    Hello from Spain

    That's awesome seeing that car on the other side of the world. I would love to know the backstory on who/why someone living in Spain went through all the additional hassle to have that car when it was new. I wonder if it sat next to any Dodge 3700's at the dealer!

    Electric Car Fire at my Neighbors

    As someone who got involved (and eventually elected 4X) to city government BECAUSE I was concerned about them getting too picky about current 1x1" registration stickers, etc. I'd tell you there's zero shame in calling in a legit problem. If you get tagged for a derelict car in my city, its...

    Getting rich on Rage-Bait... most YouTube car pages suck.

    The replies are making me feel better... Good therapy. Some of this came to me a few nights ago when I got together with some electronics-hobby friends. (We go to a restaurant between Christmas and NYE and talk about our "finds" or our "fixes".) But I'm sure you wouldn't be surprised to hear...

    Getting rich on Rage-Bait... most YouTube car pages suck.

    I started writing a reply to the RareClassicCars 1967 Imperial video, but then I realized the trend is a whole lot bigger than this. These guys aren't stupid... They know that virtually any car has a fanbase and that by using keywords like "worst, failure, flop, dud, etc." in the...

    78 Newport power steering pump

    Autozone lends the tool you need for free. I just did one about a year ago.

    NOT MINE 1972 Dodge monaco sport coupe R/T $4,500

    All that effort spent shaving door handles and adding a milk-jug plastic scoop, but zero interest in lining up the headlight doors. I'm sure all the mechanical priorities were in order, lol.

    NOT MINE 1972 Dodge monaco sport coupe R/T $4,500

    That's how all of these hillbilly-modded big-block cars end. And not with new drivetrains either. They're a joke to the musclecar crowd and usually missing too many parts for the small number of original C-body fans to bother with.

    NOT MINE 1970 Plymouth Fury 4dr 383 POLICE? $2,000 in Annville, PA (FB)

    I'm down with the Panther cars and the GM B-bodies, but feel no need to pretend I was assigned the low-bid government mobile. I did sell both, but if I had infinite indoor storage, I would have never sold either of these. I blame the commie magazine writers for making people feel like they...

    NOT MINE 1973 Dodge CHP

    I'd find a background scene and claim it was used on an episode of CHiPs!

    camper topper on a station wagon

    I've seen 5th wheel campers that clamped the receiver to the roof's rain troughs! Yikes.

    NOT MINE Sold for 44K !!

    Silver spray paint over a light coating of grease and road dust. Maybe they even used Krylon Chrome, given the price point and all?

    NOT MINE 77 T&C Wagon, 440, Detroit area

    Not AZ shiney, but far from MI scaley. I'd probably give it a once over with a pressure washer, then an oil treatment. Perhaps hit everything under the door moldings with a DA sander and zinc primer, then paint. Deal with everything above it next season. Looks like it spent time outside, but not...

    NOT MINE 1969 Newport Coupe in Indiana

    Definitely an aftermarket top. Now you can see why the factory tops had those complicated rear moldings. If you just try to do a simple line, it looks like this: Barf.

    NOT MINE 1969 Newport Coupe in Indiana

    https://www.facebook.com/share/1CP9Xth4TT/ This caught my eye at first because it is a near clone to my convertible. Then I remembered there was another near clone out in California so I wondered for a moment if this was at.. then I took a better look at that strange looking vinyl top. Does...

    What is your dream car?

    I just read through old posts and noticed this. I'm not bagging on anyone's kink, but I swear so many of the cars people get crazy for look like backyard kit cars to my eyes. One of them in the thread (probably worth a zillion dollars) had a scoop that looked like a piece of PVC pipe run through...

    AI Pics of YOU created (car-related)

    The other forum was largely "holiday scenes" so I decided to see how it would do compared to an actual photo. The is one I took with my family at our city hall. (This is the 75th anniversary of my city being chartered, so we are going to use my 1951 Imperial at a lot of events, parades, etc.)...

    AI Pics of YOU created (car-related)

    Another neat thing you can do it use it to create an image you remember in your head... For example, I was telling a story about how my HS had an open lunch and we used the time to street race at a nearby industrial park. I learned you need to fill in details or AI will do it for you. Apparently...
