    Keeping her cool

    Countless threads here over the years where someone's had cooling issues asking for help. Almost always has Electric fan(s), aluminum radiator, flat plate "shroud" and 160 thermostat, yet having overheat problems. Eventually after trying a bunch of things they will "try" what 6 or 7 people...

    Keeping her cool

    As for the rest of the system, decide what the cars purpose is. Street car, or strictly drag? I would advise against electric fans and custom shrouds if you have any intention of street use. Sure, the OEMs do it, but They run at a temp much higher than most classic car people are comfortable...

    U-Haul car trailer experience?

    Look the tie downs over carefully. If its a good sized dealer, they have parts in stock and can change it out. I did need to help the guy out, he wasn't the most mechanically inclined.

    Getting fed up of high-perf , being happy with less

    I just can't seem to get mine on the road, let alone be somewhat reliable. I started building it with the intent on strong performance, but not a racer, yet reliable enough to road trip occasionally. Right now I'd be tickled just to be able to take it to one of this weekend s car shows. Got it...

    You should own a green car meme!

    Hope you don't mind, but I've been using a picture of your car as my desktop background at work for a couple years now, mainly as inspiration to get off my *** and get mine done. Everyone that sees it here loves it too.

    Heart Attack

    Thoughts are with you. Listen to the doctor and follow their advice, get a second opinion if you think, but at that point, they will probably tell you the same thing.

    Over 10 years ....

    Got me to thinking about it, funny though, I've been here since 2011 and have only managed to make about 1400 posts. I'm kind of an introvert. My first 2 years was just thinking about what I wanted to do with my car, until I could get it here from Florida.

    Beware new member "Prints Valiant"

    All good advice for dealing with newcomers. I check how long someone’s been here, & a few of their posts. Most dealings I don’t have a problem with PayPal because of the “quickness”-when I want or need something, I certainly don’t want to wait for USPS twice and add time for a check to clear...

    What Is This Car?

    Thanks, I like it. Other than Mustangs, Trucks, and the occasional Fairlane, I don’t see many Fords.

    What Is This Car?

    My wife was out and sent me this picture. I thought Ford, but the roofline threw me, didn’t seem angular enough then maybe Olds, but the chop of the fender at the headlights made me think Pontiac. She said its at a Ford dealer

    Local Newsman Mispronounced Plymouth BADLY!

    Damn man, bear me to it. I kept thinking that as I was reading posts. And I've heard El-de-brock without the R Maybe it's Elder-brock if you're referring to Vic senior, and El-de-brock if you are referring to production moving to Mexico. I have to keep telling my wife, its Chi pote lay, not...

    isnt he a member here?

    Divorce can mess things up for sure. Glad to see another make it through, even with the scrapes & bruises. Even if you can't get out and compete, you can start enjoying your car, thats a plus. I can't even imagine what its like to try and remain competitive, just trying to get done what I want...

    I got a new accessory

    Guess I’m screwed, I have a radio antenna on one side of my car, a drivers side mirror on the other, a Chrysler pentastar on the antenna side, a gas cap on the other. Glad I don’t have single exhaust, or one of those Dodge Super-Lite options

    Rotisserie or Rolling Cart - Pros and Cons

    I had to build my own rotisserie. 1) At the time, I didn't know how to weld yet, so I built it out of wood, and 2) I had a low ceiling garage, also with an opener and I wanted to be able to rotate inside, and be able to get through the door while vertical. I also had a crappy driveway, so I...

    Beer Sale Time

    I don’t give a rip about the whole advertising thing, Im just glad SOMETHING-ANYTHING shook A-B foundation after all the market manipulation they pulled, making it hard for people wanting to offer real beer. I'd go with Yuengling if I was looking for an alternative, but if you really like butt...

    Beer Sale Time

    In Bev might own it, but they aren't going to change shitty watery rice beer if thats what sells 10:1 over everything else. I can only imagine what this years flavor might have been if this "travesty" hadn't taken place - bud light lime a melon or some such nonsense Funny -manly men in an...

    A different perspective on "THE BLACK GHOST" by UTG.

    Funny how every Uncle Tony thread shoots to 7 pages in a weeks time. Not a big fan of his, but I watch him now & then, usually when he's brought up here. I do agree though, time does alter peoples recollection, and stories grow to legend status, sometimes even more so through each successive...

    Speak Kick Panels

    Reproduction kick panels that have holes in them, or kick panels that come with speakers, and you're asking about the quality of the speakers? I ask, not that I have anything to offer, but am curious as to what's out there.

    Someone's stirring up the Bees Nest about "you" doing the work at Self-checkouts

    Home Depot, Lowes and other supersize stores closed out mom & pop operations with the promise of actually providing more jobs AND making it more convenient for everybody. But then they cut down the number of people. I go to the cashier & stand in line. I like when someone comes over and tells...
