Well as my life goes, things keep changing more and more! My son Freddie is now 6 months old, and my wife and I just moved into a BIG 2 bedroom apartment. Have to thank God for blessing my family constantly and giving us what we need. I've only done a little bit here and there to the car ever...

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...

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...

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...
