Here is my 16x24 on pier and beam, resting really on cinder blocks, works perfect with 2x6 floor joists it handles the weight with zero problem! Cost about $5000.00 John B.

I am running BFG 245/60/14's in the rear, BFG 235/60/14's in front! Only issue was a little rubbing on the rear lip when I hit a bump in the road, my leaf springs are sagging, so installed air shocks to raise it 1 inch, until I replace the leafs!!

It was fun, although somewhat subdued this year!! I wish they would limit the cruise to just classic cars and not allow modern cars!! JDB

Sweet!!

Any members going to the Lone Star Hotrod Round up in Austin Texas? It is this weekend April 4-6. The cruise usually happens on Friday and Saturday nights up and down Congress Ave South of the river. There you can see thousands of cars of all types. I park in front of South Congress Baptist...

No he is really closing and selling the land too! Our Mopar club went out there this past Saturday to see what we could find. The crusher is coming and there are some things left for A body cars, not a whole lot but some. Expect to pay though as he is not giving this stuff away! I did see two...

Thanks for the suggestions so far! It is not a daily driver and I only put about a 1000 miles on it a year, mostly club cruises and weekend cruises in general. It's not tagged by the state for more that 1200 miles a year, Antique plates etc. I live in Texas! So that being said I think new...

Howdy folks, I am sure this has been discussed before. I just bought new tires for my stock 67 Barracuda Fastback. The rears are BF Goodrich 245/60R/14's mounted on old school Cragers. Went from 225/60/R14's. They rub when I hit a good bump or dip in the road and I have a couple of options as...

Support, that's a twin edge sword right! So yes she supports it, she is the reason I got into this at all really. But on the other hand, I know she would prefer that I get all the "honey do's" done that need attention first, I think we all make that mistake. But overall, she supports the...

No less a Barracuda, In fact that year range, 64-66 can be what started it all, as far as High horse power mid-sized cars go. Remember in 1964 the Valient Barracuda beat the Ford Mustange to market, and 64-66 had the largest single piece of glass ever installed into a production car! Still...

Ok true story! When I was getting Wanda on the road I had to find the front rubber brake lines right! So I go to autozone and they have one of two I need, but the other store (a few miles away) has the other one. Cool right? So off I go, and I walk into the store and ask the twenty year old...

It matters not what you drive to the meeting, or if you even own a Mopar, just love the brand and get invloved. Meetings are the first tuesday of the month, We have our meeting at Gethsamane Lutheran church, located at 200 west Anderson lane, Austin Texas. Directly behind the Humane Center...

I only mention the brake deal because it happened to me personally! So the deal is with the brake adjusters, after a while the shoes go all the way out and are so tight that they will lock the wheels. After seeing the last post and a tragic story with the Demon. If I were you I would tow it to...

Forgot to mention, the primary brake shoe (smaller one) goes in facing the front of the car. So having the secondary shoe on facing front on both wheels would cause that problem. Maybe even on one wheel since you have a suregrip!

For what it's worth my mistake in putting the shoes on wrong took over a year to reveal itself. Drove great over 800 miles, untill one day! Bam right front wheel locked. So I am just saying that if the shoes are installed incorrectly you may not notice by a mere quick look at them. The last...
