    Telling a story with nothing but Fakebook screen captures

    Where do you search? aka No one shall buy/sell/trade without the Mark of Zuckerberg

    Where are you guys searching for cars and "stuff"? I know that the default answer is usually "Facebook" but unless I'm missing something, it REALLY sucks. For example, I'm planning an extended working-vacation in the Phoenix area this October. By working, I mean reconditioning a small condo I've...

    C-body on FBI files

    Threw my back out, (possibility while working on my own C-body) so I'm sitting the day out on the couch. This episode of FBI files is about a Philadelphia mob war. Bookmaker was on the wrong side of the war one morning, but at least had nice taste in vehicles.

    2006 Cummins charging question

    Have a friend in the PHX who I've been trying to help walk-through an electrical issue with his Dodge Ram 3500. He had simultaneous and intermittent "shutoff" of an aftermarket pryometer exhaust gas guage, an airbags fault, and A/C clutch disengagement. I believe we traced this back to an older...

    White Lightning (the movie)

    It may be an all Ford cast, but I do love just about everything about this movie. I was flipping channels and caught a few of the more memorable early scenes. Who can ID the engine? Is it even a Ford? Then Burt's (or the stunt driver's) hand shifting the 4 speed. And lastly an action shot. It...

    As seen on FB

    Someone should study the phenomenon of people painting bumblebee stripes on cars that never had them. Not Imperials, Plymouths or Mustangs; for that idiocy is plainly obvious. I'm talking about painting a vertical line, 90 degrees from the pavement, even if subject vehicle has a...

    Plumbing Question

    Adding a master suite to my new-to-me home. It's a one-story ranch with a basement. (The one I was always working on was finally completed and sold.) The photo below shows my plumbing plan. I would use a Wye vs a Tee, but I'm not finding Wye's with anything more than a toilet-size connection...

    I never knew that left-hand lugnuts...

    Have these little hash marks on them (front and rear). But I guess you learn things when you start taking apart a super-low mileage, survivor C-body.

    Undoing low-rider BS

    I suppose this has applications for any leaf-sprung Mopar, so pretty much everything we like. Yes, this is a cut/past from FB. I expect better answers here... ------ Question for my truck'n friends... finally had some time to get underneath this Dak R/T. Sure enough, these are new...

    Garage Planning forum/websites

    I believe I've seen people mention sites for this purpose. Reviews of lifts, planning gable heights, etc. Can anyone provide a name/link?

    Wow... Worst crash-damaged C-body I've ever seen

    Somehow I fell down an internet hole about Farrell's Ice Cream (of which I have only the vaguest memory). Someone mentioned their connection to the worst air-ground disaster to date (1972) so I ended up in a slide show... https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article174632791.html and found this...

    Australia

    Since we have an America thread, but a few Aussie members... WTF is going on over there? I used to really want to visit your country, but what's happening? Arrest for a Facebook post? Are you allowed to respond? Just click an emoji

    The Man in the High Castle (Amazon Series)

    I just watched the very last episode last night. I am not really a consumer-of-media, and I declare most of it to be crhap. But this one hooked me because it combined a fascinating (if evil) period of history with alternate-world sci-fi. In my opinion, the series started off painfully slow. By...

    It might have been this instead of the Pentastar

    The "C" in a square was a rejected corporate logo from the 1963 competition that eventually chose the Pentastar. (Some unsuccessful logos were shown in an internal newspaper many years ago.) It was seen as too "GM" like. At least they got some use from it; early-production 1979 New Yorkers. By...

    Electricians? Been a while since we've had a home electrical post I suppose...

    Yes, I did do some online searching. It seems the end-of-circuit switch isn't that common, at least on the interwebs. There is also a new code requiring a capped neutral, which junks up the search results and isn't relevant since I'm not ripping out the ceiling on the chance someone wants to...

    Rock Auto Discount Code wanted. Gratuitous Pastel Imperial photos in thread for clicks.

    Searched the forum, no recent threads. Looking to order a ton of stuff. Discount would be awesome. Pictures for attention...

    2020 WPC Detroit Swap Meet

    Didn't see a thread for this, so I guess I'll make one... This year was a little off for me by way of a few things: 1) Shoulder surgery on 1/23 meant any "finds" would be lightweight in nature. No dragging a 4bbl intake through 50k sq. ft. of display space. (Unless I found something unobtainium...

    Public Service Announcement

    When you don't think through all of your "mod" ideas and take encouragement from meaningless "build it your way" posts, you'll be lucky if anyone coughs up a grand for the carcass. That is all.

    I'm thinking of adding a scoop

    ...and changing the hubcaps. Then I might install seats from a Mustang and an EFI system. I'm making everyone aware so the community will remove any doubt I have. I seek validation. Someone please come along and say "It's your car, ignore the hate. Do what you like". Otherwise I can't sleep.

    Hurricane Charley and a road trip years earlier...

    I don't know why they don't call it "Charlie", but they don't. I know a lot of people here are in Florida, so you might find this amusing... Or horrifying. Anyway, when I brought up that old picture of my '72 Charger to show the canopy vinyl top, it reminded me of the 18-hour-blast road trip I...
