I have had Hagerty for several years. No claims. The only negative is that the price continually goes up. I switched from State Farm Classic insurance several years ago when a friend just completed his 34 Ford Pickup street Rod. He took it down to the local Perkins to have some coffee with a...

Looks to be one of those devices that is most effective at lightening a wallet.

A slant six weighs roughly 475 lbs, a 273, 318, 340 or 360 weights in the neighborhood of 525 to 550 lbs. depending on how it's set up.

Wow! That is as good as it gets (until the effect of the mushrooms subsides.....)

Wayoutfish what is that you have shielding the hood from header heat? I need to put something on the hood of my red car.

I'm kind of partial to these for some reason....:-) If I were to add another I would have to buy my all time favorite, a 1962 two door Valiant to put a 408 and five speed into.

yes, I have bought several engine parts and a ring and pinion set from John Wolfe. He used to be in Eaton but must have moved to Loveland. He used to have a young apprentice but that must have ended for some reason.

W2 heads with a Strip Dominator and a 70s dual snorkel air cleaner fit under the hood on a 64 Barracuda. The hood insulation touches the lid of the air cleaner, but it fits without issues. I would think it would fit your car as well. Mount it all up and check clearance before you slam the...

You will like that setup. I have 1.03 torsion bars and factory sway bar with Bilstiens on my 64 Barracuda and wouldn't do it any different.

I have used those on the last several lines I installed and they work great!

B&T see post #6 above.

The corrugated radiator hoses are at the top of my list. They just look to me like the guy was in a big hurry and really didn't care all that much about quality.

I couldn't begin to count the times people have commented on my 1964 Barracuda and then proceed to tell me about their (insert what ever relative you think of) who had one exactly like it but theirs had the Hemi.

Imperial Services makes a conversion. Pricey though.

I only ever owned one wagon. A 65 Dart. It used one key for doors, ignition, and tailgate. All the rest of my 64 or 65s used the pentastars for door and ignition and round for the trunk.

All of the 63, 64 & 65s I have owned have had the top of the dash painted a flat/ matte version of the same color as the dash. I've not seen one that had a flat/ matte black top surface unless the dash was black.

I tried to get everything I own under one insurance company a while back and since my house and regular cars are with State Farm it seemed like the place for my toys. They required photos of each vehicle and photos of the cars in their storage spot. The lady I was dealing with told me the cars...

My Great-uncle bought a used 53 Buick and it had one very similar to that. So I would guess the original owner of that car bought the mileage record and put it in the car in '53. Just a guess though. They came with a grease pencil to make notes but in the hot car interior those notes...

Ya, you would just buy those at Woolworths.

Several years ago a friend bought a Fitech for his '68 Mustang with a basically stock engine and asked if I'd help him install it. We put it on with a home made in tank fuel pump system. It has performed without issue and almost no adjustment since initially installed. He has since bought and...

My parents had one just like that in Dark Jade Green. Worst car ever. Everything that could go wrong did. Some things twice. Transmission went out twice, heads went bad twice, heater core several times, water pump twice, all four steel wheels cracked down the center. Crazy stuff too. A...

Welcome! Let us see some photos as soon as you have the car.

Had to be staged

I have run the 273 rocker assemblies with a 540 cam under 273 valve covers without any issues.

A friend of mine who is really into Mustangs always has a Mustang or two that are of no particular interest to him. He buys them for an average price, cleans them up a bit, fixes a few glaring issues and then marks his selling price way up. His thought is, someone will always come along who...

I replaced several pentastars on cars with wrecked fenders back in the day. Those on the sixties cars were all gold. I still have several that I removed from 64 to 72 cars, all gold. The early ones were pot metal and later were plastic. Not sure when they changed but it seems like in 1967.

We put a 5,000 lb. Badlands winch on a friends race car trailer this spring. He has been very happy with it.

He said he turned it over to his lawer so I'll refrain from further comment until the facts have been presented and he has a ruling from the court.

That is why he has to see a judge. To get a ruling on the property. He has to pay a fine though for sure. He thinks there is almost no hope for return of the car and parts. Yes, he thinks he stepped on someone's toes by selling "valuable" E body parts and they turned him in.
