    A body parts availability

    Help the ignorant here, please! I'm looking to pick up a new toy next spring (it's been eight years for me!). Now, I'm not skilled as many of you are in keeping old rides going. And it takes no crystal ball to reckon Mopar collector cars--no matter whether they're A, B, C, E or FMJ...

    Hunting for prospects

    Like most of you, I've perused all sorts of classic car classified sites. Some (topclassiccars) are just playgrounds for scammers listing cars they don't actually own. Craiglist seems to be dying out. Facebook has scads of prospects, but as we all know, the interface is clunky and aggravating...

    Looking for good (good) flicks and TV shows not drenched in Social Justice

    What makes for good entertainment, of course, is subjective. I like to drop in front to the tube to de-stress like anyone else. In recent years, however, the programming (good word for it) seems to have turned into an unrelenting woke commercial, determined to tell me how weak, unfair...

    '74 more door Val worth a closer look?

    Top side looks clean. Seller says it is a no rust/no bondo car. It does seem to have a lot going for it for the price (well maintained 318 with four-speed manual) But I'm no gear head nor very well versed in underbody condition. Can you tell by these pics if this one seems decent? imgbox -...

    Let's talk swap! See what I got to give, what you have to trade

    I recently picked up a '90 Crown Vic LTD that had been a law enforcement vehicle most of its life; first with the FBI then with a small sheriff's office. Its former LEO owner cherished it enough that it took a first place trophy at Hershey in 2016. Suitable as a DD! It features a rebuilt crate...

    Let's bring the pundits out! (your suggestions sought)

    In Spring, 2018, two tremors will shake my automotive world. My daughter will graduate from the mega-bucks private university that has made me eat Ramen for four years.

    [FOR TRADE] '79 Cadillac Eldo fs/ft for a-body

    Ideally, I'd just trade this nice Eldorado Biarritz with no rust and a nice interior for your equally nice Mopar (A, B, C, M bodies all welcome). Or a Studebaker or Rambler. Needs headliner and HVAC work (AC/heat both need repair). But lots of good stuff with this, including: --New radiator...

    Anyone near Greeneville, TN for a scouting report?

    Hey, guys! Still looking to feed my early A addiction (in withdrawal since I stupidly sold my '64 Dart GT). I'm hoping someone here might be able to scout for me in the Tri-cities area of Tennessee. There's a sweet-looking '65 four door that looks like an amazing survivor. The guy says never...

    Available for a car check in Emerson, NJ?

    I'm wondering if any member in or near Emerson, New Jersey is available to check out an early A I've been salivating over for some time. Flight prices to NJ and NY are cheap enough, but I would love an advance word on this one. It's a '64 Dart four-door with a slant six in supposedly very, very...

    Would you daily drive an early A?

    I'm thinking about it. I put maybe only 5-7K miles on my DD. Typically short distances. I'm not kidding myself, I trust, about the safety issues. Even if I do a disc brake swap, dual MC, and four-point harnesses and scat procar seats (for the head rests), it simply won't be as safe as some...
