    Update on trans pan gasket, maybe

    After two warm up cycles and topping off with fluid and back in the garage for the night it seems that this pan and gasket installation was a success. I have to say that its nicer to have a better pan than a factory steel pan. Cast aluminum with a drain plug is a nice option to have. Thanks to...

    Need to replace trans pan gasket, maybe?

    Thats great to hear feedback on the positive HWYCRZR because most is good for REAL G. I'm hoping I have luck and have good results. I want quality parts from USA. Don't want crap on my 69, I want to have a good time not problems with fixing a 50 year old car all the time with chi crap.

    Need to replace trans pan gasket, maybe?

    Drained trans last week so leaks would stop while waiting for real gasket to arrive. Haven't dropped pan yet eighter till I'm ready to seal and refill. REAL G says no sealant is needed but I'm thinking I should anyway. Also warmer temps in a few days here in TN will help, its cold here. Torque...

    Can't help myself. Bought another car -- a 1961 Dodge Pioneer

    If I had the space to add another car it would be a 61 Dart, Phoenix or a Pioneer. Best looking early Darts from 59 to 61 and classed as a full-size car. Amazing how you could get these cars ordered to your liking, not positive sure but I think you could even get an optional 383 in 61 with 11"...

    69 300 Convertible

    Ok Jason A, I have a left and right latch, they do not match completely but are dead on in so far as size and shape of the mechanism and brackets that mount to the windshield header. I don't believe that these are my original brackets anymore but are latches that the 3rd owner got from someone...

    Time to get up Ruby

    What's the biggest tire that could be put on 14" steelies for 1964 Polara? I want to get the car back up on her feet again so I can roll her in and out of garage and work on this winter. Back in 93 or 94 I put Creager star wires and 15" tires on her and I never liked them (the rims) too hard to...
