No shame in that!

Chrysler and Nissan developed a NA diesel back in the late'70's. Came in International Scouts. Has a BB 727 bolt pattern... Definitely not quick, but maybe a turbo and injectors could help. Never thought much of it

$7500? It looks like something not too bad to start with, but nowhere near $7500- if he gets offered $4K, he best run with it!:wav: http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/cto/4380625216.html

National quoted me $795 just last Wednesday to ship from Seattle-to-Tampa. Never leaves the truck until it arrives at destination.

Bought a '76 Aspen wagon w/ a Super 6 and an OD iron case 833 for $300 here about 15 months ago. Sold the Super Six & disc stuff, my buddy kept the motor, and I got $235 for the twisted hulk. Kept the trans, hump, pedals, wiring , reverse warning light and linkage... Last Spring found an...

It's from Dick Ross at Firm Feel. They do race what they sell (don't think this is them in this one, but they have a racing history and aren't BS). But I loved that when I saw it...would love to see a bunch of the old "Team Starfish" with Scott Harvey and crew

I have been picking up the old pot metal dealer tags, the license plate frames, emblems and such for years. If I don't have anything to put them on, they are garage "Art." Just scored two pairs of defunct Seattle-area dealer plate frames this AM. My Travco was from Lynnwood Dodge and the Valiant...

I like them, but I don't really see me shelling out the bucks for a decent/good one. A lot of money...

Valiant first rally video winter 2013 - YouTube

No problem- made me laugh

You are very correct Barracuda...that is the plan. Trying to find a set of the Alcoa 19.5 rims for it, putting 'feelers' out since they stopped producing them 10 years ago. Might be moving to Sarasota shortly, so don't be surprised if you see this thing within the next year

Next thing you know...etched glass roses and "Curly-Qs'" in all the windows. NO

New cable done, in hand...if the weather cooperates, it'll be installed shortly

Frederick-irony? My nickname is Fred. I like the desert in Central and Eastern Washington a lot. And I also own a '69 V-100 (hence the name). Meth? Not so much... 6 degrees of seperation

I agree with you...Mazda 6 has a TD as well as the Chevy Cruize. But that is about it, unless you count VW and I won't. Quality, reliability? Nope

That's slightly worse than my '93 Ramcharger with a Magnum 360. With combo driving and a light foot I have seen 14.1 MPG

1993 Dodge Ramcharger. 360 Magnum, one of the last 4x4 versions ever made. Bought new by the Emery County Sheriff's Department, purchased from them in May 2012. 1976 Dodge Travco 320. Ordered new by my uncle-has Bilstein shocks, front & rear sway bars, front sway control (frame rails braced...

Spoke with the uncle yesterday. Will also be checking the ground(s) here when the new forward cable arrives and I head back up there (it's about 30 minutes from my house)

Yeah, that'll do it:cheers:! Did install the new relay, reconnected the cables, twisted the key and was greeted by a fresh, different tone of "Click!" Nothing. Ended up talking to a friend who owns a shop and was a master tech at Chrysler "Back in the day." His thought is that there is too...

Got the cables all in, hit the master power switch and everything came to life...except the starter. Twisted the key and "Click." Tapped the starter (it is a rebuilt Nippondenso and had it bench tested before I popped it in place) again and- "Click." Tried jumping across the lugs on the...

Don't know if you can see it or not, but that is 'welding cable' that was used for the battery. It's a bit 'meatier' than the stock stuff from 1976. The battery sits in a slide out tray just ahead of the entry door, the negative cable bolts to the chassis, while the positive heads rearward...

Picked up the new battery and relay-to-starter cables yesterday. Cost me $61 for the 3 cables, the plastic ribbed tubing, and the battery post felts. Spent another $20.79 on a roll of DEi "Cool Tape," which I wrapped the cables with (under the tubing, of course). Luckily I have a friend who is...

Damn straight!

If you are doing one to make money with, treat it like a house. Make it nice, have great "Curb appeal,"/ broadest appeal, tasteful 'renovations,' make it user-friendly, and don't customize it to your taste. Super custom motor/powertrain? Stupid. $20K body & paint work? Stupid. Ultra trick...

My older daughter picked her automotive nirvana when she was a wee lass- 1997 Viper GTS, blue with white stripes. That is still her dream 'toy' car. Me? I have automotive ADD. I love '68-'70 Chargers, '67-'72 A-bodies, '64-'68 Imperial convertibles, the suicide door Lincolns (shut yer pie...

1) 1969 Valiant V-100 two-door sedan with 87,042 on it. $150 2) 1976 Travco 320 with 26,241 miles on it. Free from uncle 3) 1968 Dart GT, V-8 with AC,8 3/4 SG,115K on it. $1200 4) 1985 Gran Fury AHB, arson investigation car, 92K on it. $300 & a core 401 motor

Ha, ha, ha- replaced the back two fuel filters and installed a mini starter yesterday. Looks as though I will be replacing the fuel hoses back there and having a custom starter cable made since the hook ups on the Nippondenso are towards the front, while the "Highland Hummingbird's" were towards...

When you take something like this into the woods, can it really be called "Camping," Cospip? Hemi- I'll get some when we move it out and start cleaning. It's dark inside otherwise and the exterior needs a good detailing. Not to worry, I plan to get plenty of pictures

Cosgig- my daughters are 12 and 6, the older one is good help. The younger one is a one of those kids who is fun to have around, but helping out can be a coin toss. And I was surprised to hear that coming from the wife. Normally she wants nothing to do with my vehicle projects. Nothing...

The Cibie driving & fog lights on the Travco have been there since soon after my uncle took delivery. Being 37+ years old, the exterior of the plastic covers were getting a little 'crunchy.' So I took some wet/dry 220, then 600 and proceeded to knock most of the surface off the covers. Painted...
