    hard time getting motivated

    I can relate to this thread. There are some weeks I can't get motivated and other weeks I'm on it like white on rice. Working out of a car port sucks because anything you take out you have to put back, so working on the car after work you have to be selective on what you want to do and save you...

    Married guys - car budgets and honesty

    Been poking the same hole for over 30 years now. Our key to a good married life is being truthful about everything even if you don't like what you hear. My wife likes old cars but not the shows. She would rather drive them than show them. She has never given me any type of resistance when it...

    [SOLD] disc brakes from 73-76 car

    I know the shipping is a lot. How much for the spindles, calipers, control arms, prop valve? I don't need the rotors, bearings etc…

    New Stamped Steel A body Control Arms

    Do these control arms will work with the 73 and up stock disc spindles or do I have to use your spindles in order for these to work? The majority of the disc conversion kits out there require for you to use their upper control arms with their spindles.

    Best brake conversion

    I have the Scarebird brakes on my son's 64 Val and no problems. I was wondering if anyone has used what the Wayne the Ram man sells?

    46 RE Trans overdrive housing

    The housings are the same, but I guess the internals are different. I thought I could catch a break by using the complete O/D housing and do the swap with a 46RH 4x4 trans. I was also pondering about using the pcm from the dakota and integrating the transmission signals with the cheby tbi PCM I...

    46 RE Trans overdrive housing

    I found a rebuilt 46 RE 2wd trans for a mock up for my 65 Barracuda. I already know all of the fabrication that has to be done on the tunnel. My question is: Will the o/d housing from the 46 RE fit on either a 42 RH or a 46 RH 4x4 housing and will it work? Thanks in advance Mike

    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    The tank is on back order. On the tanksinc.com site it looks just like the one that was posted on #165. You just have to cut and weld in the insert.

    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    Not to steal the thread but back to the tank. I found one at tank inc, just like the one pictured from Rock Valley. I ordered the tank, pump and insert for a bit over 400. Sorry for the interuption. Now back to the build.

    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    I called Rock Valley and they quoted 1100 for that setup! Not today. There has to be a better way. I don't really want to go the Mustang route because I like to have a spare tire.

    LSx Valiant Build. Take a look inside...

    Where did you get your fuel tank, I noticed the fuel pump mounted inside. Is this something you did or you bought it? If you did it, can you give up the parts list for it. Thanks, Mike

    who makes best coil over front suspension

    I"ve been reading just about all the threads about HDK, RMS, QA1 K-members. I'm to that point in my build to decide on what to do. I kinda like the idea of more room for the small block. I have a 65 fish and room is tight. I also plan to run Durango manifolds for the exhaust, 15x8's with 4.5 bp...

    The tear-down of Jake's 65 begins....

    Nice ride Jake. I remember me and my son doing his 64 Val. Great project, I've been following it since the beginning. All of the chicks are going to want a ride in it. The first time you take it to school your going to be the big man on campus. Get ready for it.

    HEI in Mopar ECU casing

    I've been using HEI on my slant for a while. It definitely starts easier, idles smoother than the orange box I had on there. I used the AC delco module. Beware of the cheaper ones, they don't last as long. I have learned to keep an extra one in the glove box.

    Possible Drone Sighting Tonight In Colorado Springs!

    Here in southern Arizona we see them all the time on the border. I think if you lead it enough you can probably take it out. They take off and land here at Ft. Huachuca because they teach the pilot school at the base.

    No more unenjoyment...I mean unemployment

    My shop got vandalized....

    Two years ago I had someone paint all my license plates white. The whole plate except the yearly tag. I didn't find out until one of my employees had told me about the plate. I was pissed. I called my wife and had check all the vehicles and yes all painted white. I reported it to the local pd...

    My shop got vandalized....

    Wow that really sucks, sorry for your loss. Those kids must have come from a shallow gene pool. I wonder if they call their father Uncle Dad. Who knows maybe the mother and father are really brother and sister. It won't be long and they will have their very own DOC number.

    Car in shop ... So finished our garage sign

    Well at least you have a garage. I work out of a 2 car port. If I enclose it then I would have to open the garage door to get into the house. That might not be a bad idea considering it would keep all of the ash and trash coming to beg for money. They couldn't find the front door. Don't worry...

    So I sold it, now buying it back. 64 Valiant

    Some people are like that. Not everyone can give it the attention that you can. I had a girlfriend like that. The only thing she knew was where to put the gas and put it in drive. Everytime I got into the car it looked like a trash can and she got the can.

    Be firm and fair. Don't let them get away with anything because they will try you more than once. I raised two 23 and 28. Both are respectful. The dog idea is no joke same concept. Remember if they are going to be like this now, they will never leave and always ask for help or support. teach...

    What the hell is going on with shops?

    ..... It is COMMON in shops for a single tech to write up 16 hours worth of work in the day and then work 9-5...... The shop may see that high labor rate, the technician doesn't. He gets paid way less, that is why he books 16 hours in a 8 hour day. When I was turning wrenches it was usually...
