    Welcome back

    Out of hibernation! Starts fine, seems to climb up the revs in park (I’m guessing choke issue what do all of you think) the transmission seems rough but probably because fluid hasn’t been flowing (just filled it) and it has no brake pressure (full of fluid they just haven’t been used in months)...

    Debating selling mine

    I’m asking for any potential ideas here. I’ve been working on the car pretty much every day for over a week now and even tho I enjoy it, it’s taking up a lot of my time, and eating into my very small finances. Even though I love the car and know I’ll regret selling it throughout my life, right...

    Things go from bad to worse (and just when they were looking up)

    So the car left me stranded this afternoon, smoke rising from the carb. Let it sit called a couple mechanic buds (none of whom could agree on what’s wrong) but the one I think is the most correct said it seems I may have a valve leak. This is causing the engine to overheat, the rough and odd...

    What’s been going on with the kids Chrysler

    Well I know it’s been awhile since I’ve last posted, so I figured I’d fill everyone in. The car was finally insured and just got registered today!

    Have a priest bless my car?

    When I acquired my car, we opened up the trunk because I wanted to inspect the car, and the main thing that stuck out was this old beat up cabbage patch kid, I asked the guy if he wanted his doll back and he creepily said he bought the car with the doll in it, the doll stays with the car. Now I...

    Issues common to 69-73 c bodies?

    I know rust on the rear quarters has always been a common Chrysler problem, but what other issues can I expect to run into. I now have to deal with my auto trans leaking from the front fork seals most likely and hope that there’s an easier way to fix it then pulling the whole damn tranny.
