Hi folks, been a long time since I've been on here, so I wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing, and thank you all once again. lots of changes, not just because of COVID, but it's been quite a ride. mostly wanted to send a thanks to all that have helped me in the past, and to say hi...

Hi all, have a 67 Dart GT and looking for the front bucket seat badges. thanks in advance, and have a great day.

then I'll be thankful we met here my friend, you have helped me with your knowledge (and patience) in the past, and for that, I am grateful. as is said, we never appreciate what we have until it is gone. I have lost 2 neighbors this year, one at 93, and last week, another at 84. although I will...

he states the car is in Las Vegas in the ad Kim, so I looked on a map, Henderson is just outside of Las Vegas. he might be busy with Christmas (my thought anyway), and can't get back to the messages. Merry Christmas Kim

to a great bunch of people, wishing you all the best this holiday season, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. and a big thanks to all that help others here on the site. I've met a few, hopefully made a friend or two, and look forward to meeting more of you. I raise my glass to you all, cheers...

because this is an outstanding group of people here, I decided to put this out there in case it's your missing link. pictures included, and if my peeper's aren't failing too awfully bad, I believe it reads OE139388. and FW340P31390019. good luck!

lost my post, so do-over. thanks to all. I ran the car like yellow rose suggested. still a 'slight' tick, but that can wait until another day, if needed. here's the big news: found a phone number from 08 in the receipts for the car. called and left a message and the old owner/builder called back...

not getting the wind here (yet), but it's getting cold. sorry to hear about your roof and the in-laws. I'll give her a good run tomorrow, weather providing. thanks again for your help, you'll have to stop in for a cold one when you get up this way, open invitation. Happy Thanksgiving to you and...

didn't sound like it Kim, but like I said....I'm whooped. thank you sir, appreciate all your help and knowledge. to you and your's, Happy Thanksgiving. and don't worry, I'm like a bad penny, I'll show up again....maybe tomorrow, LOL. thanks again. I'll keep you all posted.

yes sir! thank you so much for your help, and hoping you have a great Thanksgiving.

alright then, took about 7 minutes to get the oil running and the ticking to (almost) stop. I took it up to the 3500 rpm's Rusty, but afterwards there was still a little tick. it's dark, cold, and I'm tired. I will get to it tomorrow and do some other checking. thank you ALL for your help, your...

you definitely helped, I was the only one making it complex. after doing it several times, it really is 'so simple' as you say. I was being WAY too meticulous finding the 'drag' on the spin. really helped when I started looking to take the slack out with the push rod going 'up and down'. you...

thanks guys, all of the valves were almost spot on to last night's settings. still had some pressure in the 5/7/7, but set the same. putting the rest back together, then getting to bed at a decent time tonight. thanks so much, I'll let you all know how she runs, and just how long it takes to get...

almost finished, thank you for your help, much appreciated and nice to meet you. thanks again Rusty

believe he meant from the chart yellow rose, at least that's what I took from it. I knew what he meant, so it's all good. thanks though, we all make mistakes, so it's nice to have someone else keeping an eye out.....and I'm leading the pack on mistakes! LOL
