    C-Body Models...

    Sooo... In all my searching I have found just this one model of a C-body, besides a couple late 50s Imperials that is... http://www.modelroundup.com/product-p/amt-6826.htm

    Insomnia Engineering

    Does anyone else do this? I can never get to sleep until 3-4 am, and I always end up spending the wee hours bench racing with myself, often making a build sheet for a car I pluck from somewhere on the internet, or some poorly done photochopping, but for the last year or so I've began to obsess...

    Gearhead Tattoos

    As a mildly inked member of society, I've always been interested in tattoos, and I'm a big fan of the gearhead kind. I don't have any car related tats, but I do have a set of old-school red and blue flames I get a lot of compliments on... Anybody have anything to show off?

    For my desktop...

    I'm starting this thread in the hopes that members will post hi-res pictures of their C-bodies for me to put into my desktop backgrounds folder. It doesn't have to be pretty, in fact I like junkyard pics, but seriously, if it's a C-body I'd like to put it in rotation on my desktop. Thanks guys

    Interchangability

    Obviously, the aftermarket support for c-bodies is (very) limited, so heres my question. What parts, besides motor, trans, and 3rd member, are interchangeable between c-bodies and other Mopars? I was thinking of stuff like exhaust kits (maybe with extra sections of pipe?), headers, radiators...

    Photo-hack

    Soooo I was adding pictures to my desktop backgrounds folder, which is at about 250 pics, and an idea struck me... Now, I'm no photoshop whiz, in fact I don't even have photoshop, hence "Photo-hack". I did this on paint so try not to hate on it too bad. I got the idea while pondering land-speed...

    TV/Movie Cars...

    So I was talking to my wife, who normally isn't into cars, and found out she has a list of movie/TV cars she wants, which got me thinking, and I figured a top 3 would be fun... So I ask my wife and she says: 1) The 1967 Impala from supernatural 2) Herbie the love bug 3) The Magic School Bus...

    Hot Rod and Roadkill

    I'm a longtime Hot Rod reader and I've watched all of roadkill a couple times. I noticed something today... theres been a lot of mopars in hot rod recently. Freiburger has his superbee (the rumblebee) and a 68 Charger with a mad max vibe (General Mayhem). Elana Scherr has a 70 challenger and a...

    The 383

    So I've been doing some "research" recently about the 383 B that's standard in just about every C-body, but just about all I can find is how to swap it for a 440. I did find a couple stroker kits here (http://www.440source.com/strokerkits.htm) and the 438 kit caught my eye. There doesn't seem to...

    Super Stock Springs

    Can they be used on a C-Body? Will they ruin the ride? Are they worth it? Am I being a dumbass?

    A Useful Tool

    So being the nerd that I am, when I found a picture of a fender tag on a car I would buy IF I had any money, I had to try and decode it. So after a couple hours of searching through listings of all the codes, I had it figured out (I think). Then I find a decoder here...

    Veterans

    Ok this time on "Zach asks too damn many questions" How many Vets frequent the forums? I know of a couple, and since I'm an Army vet myself I'm always interested to meet more. I joined the Army in 2007, spent nearly 3 years at Ft. Sill, 1 in Korea, and around 9 months in the WTU at Ft. Knox. My...

    Piggybacking

    In a similar vein to a couple other threads bouncing around, what would be your big 3 dream list? That is, GM, Ford(or lincoln ect.), and Mopar? I know it a c-body forum but were off topic, remember? And many of you are/were into something else. Mine is: GM: 1969 ZL1 Corvette, 1 of 3, OR 1973...

    But Why?

    I know why im into the c-bodies... the styling is awesome, the engines are great, and theyre pretty uncommon. Also, my great grandmother drove an early 70s Imperial daily until she died about the time I started high school. I used to sit in it and pretend to drive for hours. The car got junked...

    LPG Conversion?

    Has anyone done this? It would make the car a zero emissions vehicle, and use a renewable resource instead of a fossil fuel. Im not a tree hugging hippie (though I look like one), but im 26 and I want to be able to drive my classic when im 76. In 50 years in might be impossible to register or...

    Pro Street/Gasser?

    I have searched (so far in vain) for a C-body with a big-*** blower sticking through the hood, or a C body OR FL car done gasser style, or one wheels up. Somebody is doing this, because its all been done before, but I haven't seen it. Maybe even an altered wheelbase car, the predecessors to...

    Rear suspension options

    Ok, I'm new to the forums, and im a car guy, not brand loyal for the most part, but ive got a thing for cadillacs and c-bodies, especially the New Yorker and Newport. My real question here is about rear suspension options. I ve spent many hours trying to find a kit to swap the leaf springs for...
