    Re-grinding a cam, educate me please

    Last cam I had reground was a 63 pontiac trophy 4. Sent two cores t o Effingham Regrinding Effingham Illinois they did a great job on them and if you have ever had anything to do with half of a 389 they must be right or they will vibrate.

    Exactly what makes a MOPAR a "Matching Numbers" car?

    You need to specify what brand and type of car. GM and Ford people are not so anal on the numbers crap. If that is your game, great! But don’t try to force everyone else to follow what you believe. I have worked in the GM Ford and Chrysler plants as a millwright and they use parts to keep the...

    Bad omen for the value of 69 M-Code Cudas

    Why so many gloom and doomers on this site

    I disagree! I have friends from both sides and all races but when we talk whether it is in the garage, swap meets, car shows or going out for dinner politics is a common topic.if you have pets it’s the price and availability that is in question. If you are sick it’s the politics of covid. If you...

    Why so many gloom and doomers on this site

    I have a friend that is a security officer for WalMart. His job is to go through the camera footage to find how the customers are taking merchandise. He is a better man than I! 5 minutes and I’m out the door, those people are sick!!!

    Barracuda Dilema

    Gotta agree with this! “INTENT” is the key word here. It is always better to go the honesty route. What when where and how!

    Barracuda fender on FB

    They are worth what two interested parties decide they are worth. Only buyer and seller have any right to decide prices. Too expensive-don’t buy-too cheap-don’t sell. I bought one of these cars brand new and still own it today. What gives you the right to demand that only you can delegate worth...

    Formula s fender tag

    But then you have a situation like one of mine. I bought a 69 Cuda-340 from a pawnshop. Fender tag was gone-car was rusted but original the owner still has the fender tag and offered it to me for $2000. It really depends on what the buyer feels the tag is worth.

    Formula s fender tag

    That would be between you and the buyer, to me if it doesn’t match the car -not much.

    Barracuda fender on FB

    Hey Jim-the bottom line is it’s not 1972 when these cars were”cookie cutter” and could be found everywhere. By your logic you should sell your”M code for what I perceive is it’s worth. I see a 69 barracuda on Craigslist for the insanely high price of$4500.00 and since yours is also a 69...

    Barracuda fender on FB

    Yep I have heard all kinds of”snarky”BS. Right now I have six sets of 67-68-69 fenders. Should I sell them for your price?? Thats idiotic! You don’t know how I traded/bought/acquired these. I have bought and sold auto parts since I was 9 years old and I don’t remember needing anyone’s opinion on...

    A flipper/scammer gets busted

    My point is this-if”Tony” knowingly bought or caused his friend to buy an”altered vehicle”he can be prosecuted should someone down the road complain or bring to court this”forgery”. It’s not about someone’s cheap car-it’s about money. I have never taken my GM or Ford cars to a show and had...

    A flipper/scammer gets busted

    I’m 64 had a yard for 21 years. These laws have been on the books for years. If you knowingly buy stolen property or build a vehicle with stolen parts you can be prosecuted. I know of a bunch of cars that have been rebuilt at the dealership that will not pass now if questioned

    A flipper/scammer gets busted

    YOU SHOULD have a receipt. The problem arises when someone complains. Do you always get a photocopy of the title from the parts vehicle? Some states require it. When I ship out of state I am required to send a photocopy

    A flipper/scammer gets busted

    Yes it is illegal-different states have alternate laws. Own a salvage yard and you will find states demand a paper trail. If you own a 1969 and you have not photocopied the title from both cars you have removed and replaced VINs. Your resident lawyer that rebuilt a 69 M code former race car...

    The Mopar of Theseus.

    I have been in the "hobby"/ business for enough years to have seen just about everything done to a vehicle. The insurance/legal entities have lobbied congress and have"paid" for laws that enable them to deny payment after both the owner and insurance agent have agreed on a"worth of automobile"...

    Bad omen for the value of 69 M-Code Cudas

    Absolutely correct! They are worth exactly what the buyer will pay! These are "original"once after that you are only arguing about"how much has not been changed". When you get the"insurance and lawyer"crowd into the mix there is absolutely no way truth can enter the dialogue. These are the ones...

    What are the LD4B manifold worth?

    It's worth exactly what the"buyer" pays. I have bought running 340's for $250.00 bought a 68 complete hemi for $600.00 but that is irrelevant. If you want something and it's in your ball park do you really want to wait for it to drop in price? Lots of guys will try for years to build a 440 A...
