    Better yet, let's push Chicago into Lake Michigan as a warning to all the other cities to get their act together.

    Scoop Waukegan, IL Show July 11th

    I haven't been in a couple years now. 90% low-riders and buzz bombs, piss-poor vendors with high prices and usually a gang fight of some sort. Not the place to take your kids. Don't say I didn't warn you.

    Gear up for Nostalgia Days!

    Well, Park on Park May 13th 2015 was pretty dismal for the Mopar lovers....not that there weren't a couple nice ones there, but the Chevy and Ford boys ran all over us. I did sort of expect that as it's difficult to get anyone to go anywhere on a Wednesday night during the work-week...

    Well, got to meet up with YoungDart and check out his Swinger. Veeeeery nice condition for a car that's lived it's whole life in the Salt Capital of the world! My two boys and my brother were there as well as my nephew and my daughter-in-law and granddaughter. I was lookin' for other FABO...

    Local Chicagoland guys?

    You can set your account up here for email notification. Not sure if it's for all subscribed threads or just certain ones you choose, though. Have to verify from admin?

    Chicago/Milwaukee area A Body owners?

    Youngdart, didn't mean to imply that if you want to start a FB page and run it you shouldn't.....only that I have avoided the FB snare all these years and really don't intend to get into it now. If you feel you want to do that, go for it! I just don't have time to check & monitor yet another...

    Chicago/Milwaukee area A Body owners?

    Well, I'm not on FB and really don't need another website to monitor. What I had in mind was if there was enough interest and head-count here on FABO, was to use this section (Mid-West) to monitor and relay info through. We're all on here frequently anyway. Right now, I think there might be...

    Chicago/Milwaukee area A Body owners?

    I got me one o' dem! Never had a lick of trouble running a 4-speed/3.91 340 with 650 DP with it. Coming off a redlight at 2500 always seemed kinda fun to me! This time around, gonna give the new (to me) AirGap RPM a try...with a TQ on top if I can make the choke thing work.

    Hey, Chicago/Milwaukee A-Body owners... Have you seen this ad? http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=307116 Probably not more than a couple hours' drive. THREE sets of X-heads. From the sounds of responses, he still has all three sets.

    Since it's a Wednesday evening and most folks have to work (like me) I'd say just show up. I don't have a car ready to show anyway, so I will be parking in front of my sister's house a block away and walking in. If any of you driving in & showing want to meet up and drive/park in a group, let's...
