    Removing Heater Box

    Has anyone removed the heater box entirely and replaced it with a simple universal hot rod heater ? I have a factory AC car that I plan on never fixing the AC. Now the heater core is leaking as well. I was thinking something like this just to knock the chill off and defrost the windows...

    Hey Folks, finally got my ride on the road and would like to add a little extra grunt. Unlike most I am not looking for quarter mile full throttle acceleration.

    To trim or not to trim, that is the question.

    Howdy Fellas, Finishing up the details on my budget beater daily banger. Some yahoo before me pulled all the trim off except the rear doors. Now I'm at the point of trying to decide if I pull the rear door piece off and fill the holes or put the rest back on. I like the clean look, but also...

    A welcome back.

    Hello Folks, this is not a new hello but a "I'm back" hello. Been away for a few years, had some financial issues come up and had to sideline cars for a while. It drove me crazy to say the least. That's all better now and I'm back, glad to see the community is still here.

    Homebrew Coilover setups

    Hey guys , I found some torsion bar crossmember issues with my 69 dart last night as I was preparing to install larger torsion bars. I think the easiest way around this is to install coil overs up front. I know that they make ones that replace the factory shocks. With these I also know you need...

    Hey guys and gals, I have an old 69 dart 4 door custom that's been my DD for a few years now.

    69 Dart on 16's question.

    I am looking at going to 16" wheels on my 69 dart, I like the idea of 16's for far better tire choices and availability than 14's or 15's and I think 17's are too much, too many ricers in the area. I am looking at the plain old Black Cragar D window wheels but I am not sure on the backspacing...
