The reason I'm interested is that I never put a hole in my car covers for the fixed antenna to poke through and thought a power antenna would solve that. Of course power antennas were never available on A-bodies but I bought 2 of them at a swap meet a couple years ago. Probably most used on...

I was about to register for Carlisle 2024 (-20%) and saw the option for camping. I've always stayed in hotels and last year's was terrible because the hotel we usually stay at suddenly closed a month before the event. Not much to choose from at that point so had a bad experience. I was...

Ooops....I thought I posted this already, sorry for the short notice. This is old school drag racing and music, cars must be 1979 and older. NOT Mopar specific but we put up a good showing. Yay! No brand new Corvettes, Mustangs, Challengers, etc. They usually have 8-10 live bands spread over 2...

The Mopar event got pushed out last summer to make way for Monster Trucks. The Baders said they would make good so here it is. Summit Motorsports Park

MOPAR MADNESS at 42 - Dragway 42 Mopar Car Show, swap meet and 1/4 Mile Drags 3 day event. Probably fun runs too. I'll most likely bring a tent and camp on the grass.

16th annual and the entries usually number over 300 cars. 25 different classes with each class parked in their own area. Nice T-shirt included with entry and free hot dogs, burgers and soft drinks. Don't come for the swap meet as it's miniscule. Junction Auto Sales Chardon, Ohio Northeast Ohio...

DIY Hemi (now Sublime) posted a video where they used a 2005-06 Jeep alternator on their car timing cover. See picture of the red E-body. The boss is already on the cover and there is another lower bolt that they don't show. This was on an early 2006 (?) Engine. I emailed them and asked if this...

Old timers will remember the name Pink. No not the PINK on the *** of some young girl's pants, ED PINK! This is a 38 minute long interview where he takes the interviewer (and us) on a tour of the legendary engine shop that he started in 1965. I'm sure anyone interested in car engines will...

As part of a 5.7 Hemi swap in a 68 Barracuda, I'm relocating the battery to the trunk. I have a 2AWG cable more than long enough to make the trunk run forward. It is a good old Made in USA cable mfd by Kaiser Aluminum that is 6 strands wrapped around 1. From what I understand, the gauge should...

Really nice virgin factory cast iron Super Six 2 barrel manifold. I checked the head mating surfaces with a straight edge and they are perfectly straight. No cracks and all tapped holes are good. The carb face has a thick gasket in the photos. I'm taking this to Carlisle and will have my 64...

This picture is of a left side 1965 Dart rocker panel looking forward. It clearly shows the extra reinforcement member used in convertibles. Maybe it will help someone.

Loudonville, Ohio a couple days ago.

I recently pulled the trans out of my 64. I used a 2 x 6 x 57" long piece of wood. A 2 x 4 would be strong enough but I happened to have this on hand. The rest of the hardware I bought at TSC for under $10. The turnbuckle makes it easy to adjust the angle of the bellhousing face until the oil...

I recently needed to pull the 4 speed to take care of a couple things. I keep the 64 at a female friend's house so I'm constantly shuttling tools back and forth and work alone. A couple decades ago someone gave me a trans jack adapter that takes the place of a floor jack saddle. I was never...

The subject of what carb to use on a /6 seems to come up often. This is a factory training film that shows proper adjustment of a Super Six BBD and the differences with the more common 318 carb. It's so good that it could be made a sticky in the /6 section. @memike

If you have 20 minutes to spare, I thought this was a pretty interesting take from a designer's point of view. Maybe it's the black exterior but it took me a while to realize this is a 4 door. Obviously Exner used 1960 Valiant "highlights" on the 1962 B bodies. It's kind of surprising but I...

1964 Valiant w/225, originally 3 on-the-tree. Now 1965 Barracuda A833 B&T trans swapped in. I originally thought my swap meet 65 trans was the easiest conversion because I wouldn't have to mess with the driveshaft and 7-1/4. It took a couple years to collect all the parts like the /6 BH, floor...

Dragway42.com (scroll down events to see listing) Log into Facebook | Facebook Sorry for the Facebook link but I couldn't find the usual www link. Looks like the replacement for Monster Mopars at Norwalk (Summit Raceway). 42 facilities are nowhere near as nice, or as big, as Norwalk but the...

I heard about this awhile ago but didn't realize we were eliminated. Summit Raceway Park has bumped the Monster Mopar race and show in July and replaced it with a National Truck and Tractor pull event. Yes, they are going to cover the track with dirt! Maybe they'll plant real Christmas trees...

Standard 1"-23 Needed for clutch alignment only so gear is not important. Plastic molded one in clutch kit not accurate enough. I thought I had one in a box of 4 speed parts but no. I'm in Ohio

1964 column. I need to remove the wires from this connector so I can disassemble the column. Using a couple of jewelers screwdrivers to probe from the front and back to hopefully disengage the metal connectors and slide them out. So far, no luck. Anyone have any tips?

Season is winding down here but went to a local cruise last night. Usually 400 cars but only 1/3 full. This truck was just about to leave. 80 chopped Dodge with 41 front end. Owner said he wanted something different so kept the /6 and stick shift. Open pipes without baffles. He said it's fairly...

Got there about 9 am Saturday, right away, drove north all the way to Pontiac headed south and looked for a parking spot norrh of Duggans. Started walking, two miles North, 4 miles South and back again. By 1 pm Saturday most of the true cruisers were parked. Hot weather, and stick shifts are...

I replaced my tail lights and front parking lights last fall with LED's. Mostly because a "new" 1157 bulb in tail light was melting a rear lens from the heat. Flasher replaced using Slant Six Dan's recommendation. IIRC Federal something. I think the LED's are Phillip's Zeto? New LED's only go in...

OLD SCHOOL EVENT! Not Mopar specific. I'd like to see more Mopars represented though. 10 Live Bands Friday and Saturday. Think Rockabilly, Surf, etc. Fun runs, first time I ran my 64 /6 Valiant was at this event. Gassers, stick shift , Friday night flag race for show cars, wheel stand...

Summit Raceway Park. One of the nicest tracks around. Advertised as world's largest all Mopar race event. Very heavy race turnout! Show and swap meet being handled by Mid Ohio Mopars. Don't forget the pound of ice cream for a buck! https://www.monstermopar.com

A few slants at Carlisle today including a 1965 Australian /6 hearse. No hurry getting to the graveyard right?

Dirt track car in Honduras

Everything snowballs. The main project is converting a 64 Valiant from a 3 on the tree to a 4 speed. Took about 3 years to collect the parts and that part is going fine. It needs new carpeting molded for the floor hump. Rather than put the worn out original bench seat back in, I guess it's time...

Hey @CurtDawg510 I want to ask some details about your Hemi swap but your inbox is full. Can you please make a little room? Thanks
