    Is there a nice chrome Gas cap for A-bodies?

    Has anyone found a nice-looking chrome gas cap for A-body mopars? I like the later Barracuda caps and the ones on the 68 Chargers, but the Darts and Dusters have an el-cheapo looking body-colored one. If they don't have one on the market, someone should make one with the looks of the Barracuda...

    Working On A New Hood For The Swinger

    Those are very cool hoods, I loved the look of the 71 to 73 Mach 1 mustangs, so much so that I owned a few as a young guy. You did an incredible job of crafting and making it look like it came from the factory with that hood.

    340 gone! Performance shop shut down! Help!

    I have learned to never pay up front for anything practically. People are much more motivated to get the work done when their own hide is in the game. Just be glad you got your engine back... Next time, ask them how long they take to do a job, get an idea on the longest it could take and the...

    Valiant Effort!!!

    I have learned that any car can be cool if the owner has taste and knows what to do to make it cool. So many cars have potential, it is just the creativity and cleverness of the owner that makes it that way. Sometimes it is just the attention to detail...

    How do you clean dirty Carbs?

    I have 2 Carters carbs that I want to clean up and wanted to know what I should soak them in to get all the soot and gunk off of them? I have cleaned a coffee pot with a peroxide and baking soda mixture that does a great job, but I wanted to know what guys with a lot of experience rebuilding...

    How much money do you put into a car?

    How much money is too much when you are building or restoring a car? I think of all the time and money that you can put into these cars. I learned long ago that you have to look at these cars as a labor of love, vs a money-making proposition. I know of a guy locally that dumped thousands of...

    Do you love it or hate it? 1969 Barracuda Fastback, 604 CI Hemi, 800 HP, XFI Fuel Inj

    I prefer cars that look stock, but are bad to the bone. This is just too much for me. I like a car that I can drive on the street and also take it to the dragstrip. This car is too custom, too much fiberglass and airbrushed paint job... the wheelie bars etc... This is pure racing and I prefer...

    "Restoring a junkyard car"

    Hey Mike, Thanks for all your help on the car, man I love this thing.... I have been slowly going through it as money and time allows. Everything is fine with the bond and title, I called the county inspector to get the details on the whole process. I got spooked by what some guys were saying...

    "Restoring a junkyard car"

    I spoke with the inspector and got good news. All I have to do is show receipts for everything to make sure nothing is stolen. Then get the car running and functioning well and have it inspected. Then get an indemnity bond for a couple hundred bucks and I am issued a title. Older antique cars...

    "Restoring a junkyard car"

    I purchased a slant 6 74 Dart Sport and I love the car. It was just a body, no motor or tranny. It did not have a title with it because it was junked. The lady at the DMV mentioned that once I get the car running and everything working an inspector from the county will come out take pics and...

    Would you sell your Mopar to Hollywood?

    A local guy that owns a bone yard for older cars here in NC said that some movie companies purchased many of his cars. He said that most were shells that had no engine so they could move them around easily on street scenes that show vintage cars parked along the sides of streets. He also said...

    Any suggestions for a daily driver under $10,000?

    Any Subaru would be an excellent investment... I have also owned an Impala, loved it and only sold it because we needed a larger vehicle for the family.

    I hate the new Dodge Dart

    The newer cars these days are more of an appliance than the old cars. Styling is a slave to the aerodynamic wedge shape, the wind tunnel sand dune look. They should just paint them all white like your washer and dryer. That is about how exciting they are...
