    This 71 Cuda has been sitting out all winter.

    So my dream car has always been a 1971 Cuda. If I had one even 1/4 this nice it wouldn't sit out in the yard all Montana winter. I have seen this thing sitting here for the last couple months. At first I thought it was for sale but there is no signs or local ads for it. If it's a real FM3 with...

    Prius the new Vanishing Point?

    Did you catch that super bowl ad of the Prius as a getaway car and a cross country police chase? They then make a Prius cop car and have the line, "it takes a Prius to catch a Prius." Sit down Toyota, it's already been done. It was one of the only decient ad in the game but only because it gave...

    thinking about getting 1982 B250 van

    http://missoula.craigslist.org/cto/4315283681.html So would that be a A-833 overdrive in this van? This ad actually just went up $150 in the last 10 min, it was $850. Any issues with these years? I would probably gut the emissions, simplify the ignition, use shorty headers and I have my high...

    2014 Diesel 1500 Ram wins MT truck of the year

    I didn't even know they were putting the small diesel in an US trucks but it did pretty well. I started doing some math and it just doesn't work out to real world savings. The problem is in the cost of diesel at at least $.60/gal more then regular unleaded. So even if the truck is getting 27...

    need more throttle travel

    So I have a 600 eddy 1406. I was looking at how far my secondaries were opening and it was only a little, maybe 1/8 of the way. I thought it might be the kickdown linkage binding but after taking it off it still was the same. So I loosened the throttle cable clamp and pulled the cable back more...

    Hemi on beach

    I was looking through old photos and remembered this one. There is a beach called "glass beach" on Kauai that is around the point from an old dump. It's pretty cool for industrial art meets nature and decay with an old Asian cemetery thrown into it as well. After exploring the rocks and beach a...

    [SOLD] 1969 Formula S badge

    $85 shipped USPS So I was going through my stuff and ran across this. It looks like it might have never been on a car as the tabs have not been peened over but there is some black residue on the back so maybe somebody glued it on? The speck above the S was a piece of dust and is...

    Saw the 6.4 Hemi Jeep Brute in person today

    So I'm doing my mail route and come across this today... A guy from AEV lives on my route and he drove this home. It's pretty sweet but at probably over $100,000 not for me. Here is the exact same rig in a Motortrend article...

    What's a 4 door 68 Valiant worth?

    So this guy on my mail route has a real nice 68 Valiant 4 door I love looking at and driving around every day, and I hear he is probably selling it. It is splotchy red but looks like it might buff. I don't see any rust or even dings but I haven't been inside or under it. It has all the trim and...

    tuning

    anybody feel like giving me a start to finish on basic tuning? I did a search and everybody chases similar problems but I thought somebody making a basic guide with a sticky would be helpful for all. I got my car up and running but now I'm ready to get this dialed in. I have a stockish 72...

    brake bleeding, no front

    So I put some 73 front discs on my 68. I have a new master cylinder (73) which I bench bled. I reused my original front lines, but I used the prop valve off the 73. All new front calipers. So when I push the peddle I can get good fluid out the back and seem to have good rear brakes but cant get...

    So does anybody have a good source for the bushings for the factory column shift linkage bushings? I thought I had a good one but the tabs are broke that hold it in and it wants to work its way out. I've seen them a few places but $20 each? Is there a knockoff "help" brand replacement or...

    904 behind 360

    Ok, so I changed my mind about using a 727 and am going to rebuild and keep my 904. This sucks because I already spent hours cleaning the 727 and bought a rebuild kit for it from Cope racing but oh well. The questions I have are what is the best way to deal with the torque converter. If I use...

    B&M unimatic

    I have to say I'm liking the looks of this shifter best. I don't want or need ratchet or reverse manual pattern and I don't have a factory console, just want a floor shifter between the seats rather then the column shifter and something nobody's going to knock into gear or reverse by accident...

    $800. I have a pretty much complete take out v-8 swap setup. I'd like to keep this all together for now in case somebody needs a complete setup but it needs to sell locally for that. If I get no takers after a few weeks then maybe I'll part it out. This motor is dated right for a 68 but the...

    motor swap in from bottom

    So this worked very well. I was able to do this myself with basic stuff and it was much easier then from the top. The headers were put on the motor on an engine stand which took 10 minutes compared with 3 hours in the car. Then I put the motor on the hoist and lowered it and bolted it to the K...
