Please do! I’ve always tried to find pics of it but to no avail. Such a coincidence that people across the country and even the world knew of that place which was so close to me. The guy who was selling all these cars on craigslist lives the street over from where my car currently lives. He...

My 68 NY is from Merkel. A guy close to me was liquidating his “collection” after he passed. These cars were so far gone. My 68 looked nice but was far from it

Another one of my favorites Namely because she was still complete and not touched yet! Looks so weird on a trailer

I second the polishing method. Maybe hit the bumper with a clay bar before for a better result too. There’s probably crud wedged into that scratch, then go forward with a metal polish. Should make it look a lot nicer.

Another option is Coast Clutch and Break in Santa Maria they can make all these hoses too I believe, not cheap but can be done! Probably what I will end up doing for my New Yorker once I get to that part

I guess it’s not terrible things, however just the harsh reality of being an adult working man providing for his family! Especially living in CA where it’s expensive. Just working hard and when im not, im home watching my son while my wife works (she works days and I work evenings 4-12) - It...

Going to have to get him some Mopar threads, for when he goes cruisin with his dad in the 68. Already going on 3 months old tomorrow! Trying my hardest not to blink so he doesn’t grow too fast

Despite the fact that I haven’t touched my 68 in many many months, I’ve still got a feeling I could get it driving by the end of the year! Not going to lie, im worried about letting the engine sit for so long not running as well as the water that was sitting inside the radiator which is...

Despite life COMPLETELY kicking my *** in every possible way in recent times - im glad to know my 68 is still sitting and waiting patiently for me to return working on her:) At times when I just wanted to sell it, I was thinking out of pure frustration and a bit of anger. Now, im glad I have...

Even a 7 week old baby can’t help but smile at the sight of a 68 Chrysler and the might of a 440 engine! I get sad watching him grow every day, knowing he won’t stay so small forever. At the same time, I can’t wait for him to tell me “Dad, can we drive that car today?” - and I’ll always say...

We just had an AMAZING cruise night in my hometown during the Memorial Day weekend. Missed out on it this year since my son was only 3 weeks old! The crowd is way too big to take him, and the cars much too loud. There were 10’s of thousands at the cruise reportedly. Here’s some cool footage from...

I’ve got a big soft spot for Montes. My brother (who is really my half brother, however we don’t view ourselves as such…) is 10 years older than me, and got a ‘70 when I was about 7 or 8. I thought it was the COOLEST car. My brother’s dad had a ‘70 (still does) - and now the rest of my brother’s...

Man these are some cool shows! I’m from Santa Maria and mainly only ever see shows here. However, my wife and I will be attending the Good Guys show in August. My in laws live in Vacaville and they really wanted to take me to the show. Looking forward to that one!

I’m so excited to get back and try them out on the 68! Only thing is i need steelies to put them on. I honestly think out of all of my wheel / cover choices this is my favorite

Thank you everyone!!! It’s such a strange (but in a good way) feeling. You never realize how much you can love something, but wow - I cried like a little girl when i first saw him LOL. Not afraid to admit it! As fun as it is to think of him older and doing what we all love with cars, I also...

Named after one of the Estrada family’s favorite singers - Freddie Fender. Especially for my grandpa (son’s great grandpa) who is no longer with us. I can still see him turning up the radio and telling me in Spanish “THIS is music son” to this song

May 06 2024 my baby boy came into this world happy and healthy! I can’t wait until those little hands start to help out with the cars as he grows up! A future Mopar man in the making

Just got these beauties in!! They are going to look SO good on the 68! I also got these factory style caps for 68 too… Though I feel that these are kinda ugly, at the same time they’re cool because they’re original and would give my car a period correct “stock” look. Everyone I’ve shown...

Yes sir! Thats what drew me to them. I can truly say I think these are the most beautiful Chrysler caps I’ve ever seen. Even cooler than the 61 Polara hubcaps. Funny enough, Lowrider guys LOVE Mopar hubcaps. They are on almost every “Bomb” in town. Namely Dodge Lancer hubcaps. Bombs are...

Are those Cal Custom valve covers? I have a similar set! Want to get mine polished out!
