Well, as I’ve been inactive on the forums, I have been watching from afar. I am genuinely trying to find any time here and there to work on my 68. She’s sitting pretty, just waiting to be driven again. I know it will happen! I’m also excited to know I’ll have little hands to help build this...

No, I am never going to swap out the 440 in my New Yorker. BUT! After driving my Ram for some time, I’ve wondered if anyone’s ever put a Magnum into an old C. Seems like the Magnum V8 is to us Mopar guys what the LS is to GM guys. As a Mopar guy - I do feel jealous at times of what the GM guys...

I’ve been needing some inspiration to get my a** back to my New Yorker / 300. I’ve got good news, although I’ve been terribly busy as a newlywed with a new job - I may have found a solution to my halted project. The gent who rebuilt my 440 is a very respected man in my community and has helped...

I’ve been tired of keeping up with the payments and upkeep of the newer Silverado I’ve had for almost 2 years. Decided to bite the bullet and sell it. Wised up and bought a Dodge yesterday! She’s a 01 Ram Laramie SLT. 5.9 Magnum, 3.21 rear. Not sure if it’s the 42re or 46re trans. I know this...

Okay, I know it’s absolutely TABOO for a purist to hear. It’s been a looooooong time since I’ve worked on my New Yorker. For those of you who’ve known me and my car long enough, you know I didn’t start out with a very nice specimen. Almost everything inside the car was absolutely garbage...

Well hello one and all my fellow Mopar enthusiasts… So I’ve been MIA for a hot minute!! Things have changed a whole lot for a guy. To start, I finally tied the knot!!! So thankful this gorgeous girl said I do. Now she’s stuck with me and my cars forever!! :lol: Also, I was sent to the...

Well, I figured I should let you guys know I’m still alive here! I know it’s been a minute. Lately I’ve been feeling really down and discouraged with my project. I should be feeling quite the opposite, but every time I go to see it - I don’t see much. I see an empty shell and a car that in my...

As you all know, I’ve been eyeing a ‘62 Chrysler 300 as my next ride. Although I don’t yet have one in my possession, I’ve been slowly building a nice little collection of parts to make it “my own.” You also may know I’m a huge fan of Mild Kustoms in ‘60s style. I love period correct stuff, and...

This wagon is just TOO cool. Could this really be factory?

I just happened to be in this car’s neck of the woods. As many of you know, my 68 and the wedding are my priorities - and the owner of this car knows it well! I am still however, saving up money on the side for this car as I DO plan on buying it eventually. Possibly mid 2023. Hadn’t seen many...

A local FB group sharing historic photos of my hometown and surrounding areas of the 805 shared this cool pic! The Elks Rodeo parade held a raffle for a new car every year (not anymore.) We can only see the tail portion, but I instantly recognized that beautiful tail end from anywhere! So...

Hey all! I’ve been inactive here for a while, but fear not - the 68 has been making its way to a driver slowly but surely. Most recently, I’ve gotten a rebuilt steering box from Steer & Gear in Ohio, and I have been finishing up some much needed patch work on the front half of the car. The...

Hey all! I know it’s been a long time since I’ve posted ANY updates on the ‘68. It’s been a rough past couple months. Life hit me like a train and wouldn’t let me get back up! I’d been having to work a lot and that kept me away from turning any wrenches on the New Yorker for quite some time...
