For years I have said that I don't need the microwave oven to beep when I push a button, when it's done, or WHENEVER! I know it's done; it shut off! Recently, I mentioned this to a friend of my step-daughter, and she said to google the brand and model number, and I'll find a Youtube video (in...

Is the item in this picture that's entitled "ring", available new somewhere?

I haven't raced competitively since christmas trees had incandescent bulbs. I used to be able to see the light coming on, being on, and going out, as lots of racers did. Always foot braked, .500 tree. One car ran mid 14's, the other 11.60's. This was in the 80's and 90's. Since then, I have...

Not an a body, but I don’t know who else to ask. I had the left fender, hood, and roof repainted (color and clear) on our ‘07 Accord back in November of 2020. The guy said don’t wax it for six months because the clear isn’t cured. I waited a while, don’t know if it was six months. Now, the roof...

Father, son daringly stop out-of-control semi-truck after driver passed out on Kansas highway: ‘We’re just good farm guys’

My car hasn't had the speedo connected since it was a 198 slant. I now have 4.33 gears in a 9" Ford rear, in my 360/727 74 Dart Sport. I'd like to get the speedo correct. M/T ET Street 275/60R15's will be ordered before my Summit 10% discount code expires 12-31. (Thanks again, GTXJohn!) The...

I’m here at Cecil County today. Going to run the test n tune. Anybody else here? Look for my primer black Duster with primer gray fenders.

If I cut the air horn off of my Street Avenger 770, will there still be threads to hold the air cleaner stud? EDIT: I’ll remove the stud and see if I can see or feel down in there. And, see if the stud will thread down enough.

...in Annapolis, MD.? My wife and I are spending 5 days there soon. I suppose it doesn't have to be car stuff, but something other than the shops, winery's and other "chick" stuff. We are going to tour the Naval Academy.

Just heard. For good, they say. Saw a Facebook post by Atco.

I'm working on my Holley Avenger 770 using this thread as a guide: Power Valve Selection: The Definitive Answer I was directed to it on my thread about taking my Duster to the track. I'm going to need some jets, but I sure won't ever need all the jets that are in the the sets that go from 64...

My car doesn't run below 11.50. This excerpt from the 2023 rule book says that because I don't require a SFI 2" etc. harness (11.49 and quicker), I can run an expired SFI without an issue. Mine is dated 2019. I don't have a roll bar, and only use the lap belt portion of the SFI. When I went...

This is an 8.8 Ford (in my F150), but the gears don't know that. (ssshhh!) I have limited experience setting up gears, but I've never seen a pattern that encompasses the entire tooth, drive and coast. And I don't see any pictures like these online. I used Ford Motorsport gears (going from...

I'm trying to get myself to start doing the bodywork on my Duster. It's my least favorite part of the hobby. Mostly because I hate messes; and it makes a mess of my garage! It's one of those things that once I get started, it's okay. But anyway... One problem is the fiberglass fender has a...

Anyone familiar with later model Honda's and how their stealerships work? Without my knowledge, my 91 year old neighbor set up an appointment to have the pass side mirror repaired, at the stealer, on her 2017 Accord EX-L. It moves left-right, but not up and down. The glass shakes around. I...

I've linked a few posts about my Duster clone. I started working on it in 2008. I got it running last year, and worked the bugs out. I maybe put about 2-300 miles on it. Tuesday, May 16th, I'm going to Atco to see how it runs. A "Test 'n Tune" night. Anyone else going? Drove My “New” Duster...

I have a lift-off glass hood. I'm thinking of venting under hood heat by raising the back of the hood a bit. Has anyone tested this? There's no cowl seal, so maybe it won't matter much? I know they used to look for that seal on Stock Eliminator cars. I guess "forgetting" to install it helped.

How do these guys get to run with no roll bars, non-Snell helmets, and probably a piece of rope for a seatbelt? I know they don't run NHRA tracks, but c'mon! The Race of Gentlemen: Vintage Drag Racing Returns to the Runway!

Dragstrips say no antifreeze. Then they let a hundred street cars go down the track. I know antifreeze is hard to clean up. Do they really mean that they don't want antifreeze, but they know they can't enforce it because no one will show up?

Not an A body, but I know there are knowledgeable body techs on here. 2007 Accord- the "Accord" emblem has come off of the trunk a couple times. I have used 3M trim adhesive, but never did it correctly. Meaning, I've never removed the old adhesive, I just added more, and it comes off...

It's old, but if it's a simple fix, that'd be great. A couple months ago, it wasn't as hot as it should've been, but it came around and has been okay until today. The pilot is lit, and the exhaust fan runs (until I unplug it), but the burner won't light. I've lightly tapped the gas valve...

Sometimes I ponder building an A body for long trips (and daily use). It would be a 2 door, 318 (gotta be a V8). I wouldn't mind a 273, if parts are still available. It would only be modified to increase mpg. It would be either a 4 spd w/ OD, or an auto w/OD. I'd prefer a stick shift, I...

Recently, we switched to fios for our internet. The fios rep sold my wife 1 gig. I don't know anything about this gig stuff, but I'm willing to bet 1 is more than we need. It's just me and my wife, we have 2 phones, 2 chromebooks, and an I-Pad. As soon as the rep heard that, she said we need...

Just stumbled on this. Today is Don Garlits' birthday. 91 years old. Happy birthday, Big!

Another thread reminded me that I'd like to get one of these. My wife and I are heading to Chicago (by car) for Christmas, and the forecast is for coldddd! It would be a good thing to have in the trunk. What's a good one for personal use? What numbers, ratings, etc. should I look for?

My 74 Dart Sport is a very low optioned 198, 3-on-the-tree. From the chart referenced here: identify these torsion bars please I would think it has .830 t-bars. It has .850. The car doesn't have a/c. I guess they could've been swapped out over the years, but the car was very original when I...

I weighed my new project at the county dump today. (I thought they might try to keep it, lol.) 2760# without me (I'm 200), 1/4 tank of gas. -74 Dart Sport cloned into 71-71 Duster. -Fiberglass hood (lift-off), fenders, and bumpers. -Aluminum bumper brackets. -72 doors. (no crash beam)...

Does anyone know of a vent bolt that will hold the brass vee and is 7/16-14 thread? I have a 9" Ford in my Duster and there is a solid bolt holding the vee on. So, of course, the axle is not vented. I haven't driven it enough for it to leak, but I want to "stay ahead of the curve"...
