Saw an old friend’s ‘65 Dart wagon today. I’m curious if anyone here owns it or knows who does. I saw it in Campbell.

You gotta take it to Custom Alignment.

Yes, they are. Custom Alignment - Balance and Brakes | Mountain View, CA FYI - I would avoid Pro Alignment on Winchester in Campbell. I know several friends had good luck with him, but when I took my Barracuda there many years ago after a front end rebuild, it drove way worse after he was done...

Not sure if I will make it or not. Next weekend is kind of busy for me already. I wish Mopar Alley was better about communicating this stuff so those of us with a lot going on can plan for these events.

In a secret location & time?

I plan to be there with my Belvedere.

Hey Joe, do you still have the Valiant? You know I sold the red one a few years ago, right? Now I have a low mileage '67 Belvedere II. It's a 383 4 speed car.

Yep, bad timing. Here's a pic of the day it left with it's new owner. Sadly, it sounds like it has been sitting in a carport in Shingle Springs not being driven last I heard.

Not sure what your budget is, but these guys do good work. I had a friend who used to work there. I think they are pretty expensive. http://www.campbellautorestoration.com/index.php

My friend Brian ended up having a couple of them. But when we went to put the new MC in, there was no stepped bore to hold the retainer o-ring. Fortunately, my car is so low mileage that the dust boot is in perfect condition, so it will hold the pushrod in place.

Anyone in the south bay happen to have a master cylinder pushrod retainer o-ring? Just got a new MC for my car and they didn't include one. Trying to get the MC swapped this weekend.

I'll be there looking to see if there are any interesting cars for sale.

I can't make it. Have other plans. Take pics, please!

Joe, try to find a shady spot under the solar panels if you get there first. See you tomorrow. Lee

True! You haven't heard it yet. Maybe if you have time I can take you for a quick ride.

Hmmm...I wonder how I can make my 50 footer look like a 20 footer? LOL!

Hey Joe, I forgot that you were on this forum as well. Looks like we might have a trio of Valiants there.

Wow. Your Valiant is almost a twin to mine. I'm supposed to be meeting up with another Valiant owner at the show.

So who all is going? I plan to be there in the Valiant.

Yep. They're everywhere in the bay area too and in my opinion, they look stupid and out of place on a late model car.

Info about this get together can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/Ronnies-Morning-Get-Together-1450568878496168/

There should be one this coming Saturday. I'm planning to go. I usually get there around 9, maybe a little earlier. Look for the red Valiant in my Avatar.

There is a get together in San Jose every 2nd Saturday at the Target parking lot on Hillsdale. It's called Ronnie's Morning Get Together. It's all kinds of cars, not just Mopars. It's very informal. It starts early, like 7 or 7:30 am and winds down at 10. I go when I can.

That sounds good. I might just go to Alice's and wait, then continue on with everyone from there. Then when everybody turns around in Boulder Creek, I can head back down 9 and home.

Is there a published route? Any stops along the way? I don't want to drive all the way from the south bay to Pacifica. I'd rather meet up along the way.

Yes, a little more info would be helpful. It's not too far from my house. Not sure yet if it would fit into my schedule, but let us know more please.

Oh yeah, I know they won't mind a V8 car. I took my former 1966 Barracuda there a few times. It has a 340 in it. The Valiant is basically a road race car with license plates.

Cool! Thanks for sharing that. I'm considering bringing my Valiant even though it's not a Slant 6 and it's quite the beast.

Thanks for the info. Not sure why they make it so hard to find info about the gathering. I'll see if I can make it.

Anybody know if/when there will be a Slant 6 show in Redwood City this year?
