    The Cramps played at a California mental hospital. I can't believe this was 38 years ago.

    Unappreciated rock bands...

    The greatest punk-a- Billy band ever. Saw them first at club 9:30 inWash DC. This is the heart of rock and roll. As Lux Interior said, If it don't sound dirty, you are doing something wrong. Dammitall can't get link to paste... Gurgle Garbageman by the Cramps on Y'all-tube.

    Oh! The best paper was old black and white photograph paper, but should be hard thin expensive paper..

    72 Factory Radio fix?

    Did the new speaker have a whizzer cone at the center? It's a separate little stand up cone within the main speaker, of thinner hard paper and a free edge, designed to reproduce high frequencies better. You can add them, then reglue your top screen fabric. I have added them to many speakers for...

    Reseat bulkhead connector. Unlikely to fry the ignition by pulling field wire.... possible, but very unlikely.

    For all the Mopar Girls among us this Valentines day......

    Sloppy cartooning. Boater hats were not allowed in February. The other guys would have pummeled him for showing up in one.

    Off Topic Question? My Pillow Dot Com TV Commercial.

    I am inspired to seek a new Amish made goose pillow at Lehman's hardware.

    BURN BAN

    Maybe I will invent soot scrubbers for burn barrels with solid state heat reclamation for garage and house heating. Couple of ideas already...

    Off Topic Question? My Pillow Dot Com TV Commercial.

    I avoid many things just because I see so much spent on marketing that I refuse to support that model. I COULD be satisfied with a block of styrofoam, but in pillows I want goose feathers, not down.

    BURN BAN

    Every time paper is recycled, the fibers are damaged and become shorter. When paper is made there is a "grain" to it..normally it is run long grain through a web press. When recycled content become too high, the paper gets brittle and instead of handling easily, it breaks in the press or...

    Ugly cars you have seen in public:

    Whatever it's about, it's not about aerodynamics. Reminds me of the broad side of a barn.

    Reverse light switch on a 3spd?

    My only experience with a manual was my buddy's 63 Valiant Signet, which had back up lights.....and the switch is not setting in deep enough to work. He has to pull on the shifter in reverse to get the lights on.

    Reverse light switch on a 3spd?

    There's a plug on the driver's side of the trans near the back, or on the back end, where the switch screws in. When the reverse gear is engaged, it touches the end of the switch and makes the circuit complete to ground and turns on the light.

    [74 Dart Sport] Bad Carter BBD... what now ?

    I did the port mismatch thing for 2 years (1982-1984) with a TQ on a teener and it screamed AND pulled hard. Never had to change the shift link or cable, not sure why everyone seems to run into trouble with it...

    Miss at WOT Only

    Depends maybe on if you have vacuum advance. Timing plate swings on one pivot, off to the side, and if reluctor gap or points are set critically, the gap changes as soon as vacuum level drops when you go into it, and then you misfire. How the carb is ported, how much advance picks up in the...

    anyone play chess...or do you guys rather play with legos?

    Theoretically, I like it, but it doesn't capture my imagination. The strategy is fun, I guess, but it seems almost too much like love and war, and I'd rather be off creating, building something, adjusting something, restoring something or out appreciating the beavers. Yesterday we found the...

    Miss at WOT Only

    Eliminate end shaft movement in distributor. If there's any movement to speak of, harmonics at WOT will make ignition timing change as rotor and shaft reasonate and work up and down as they rotate. This can happen because of the diagonal cut on the drive shaft for the oil pump and dist.

    Hemi dies after 2018?

    And if I could put a stand-up, die-cast, non-spring loaded chromed Fratzog hood ornament with a 345 under the 'zog on the hood, I would do that.

    Hemi dies after 2018?

    I have less problem calling the new motor a hemi than I do calling it by a metric displacement number. What I want is a simple small front fender dogleg badge like the 66 Belvedere had that says 345 Hemi. If I can't get that I'm not gonna have ANY callouts on what motor is in the car. I'm not...
