Well guys my old Lincoln Mark 7 is becoming so problematic that it's time to purchase a "new" car. Through my bank I want to purchase a good commuter car in the price range of 10 to 12 grand. Give me some good cars that would fit the bill. Perhaps your own personal experiences?

I truly think those of us who learned how to drive and continue to drive our old muscle/street machines tend to have much better driving skills then those who do not. What do you think guys? I believe all the modern nuances have spoiled a lot of the new drivers in today's generation.

I know guys, it's an EVIL Chevy but it's my work truck and I need assistance. Does anyone have an illustration to share which shows how this bracket is actually hooked up in the vehicle? I need to get this hooked up on my 69 Chevy but the instructions supplied by Edelbrock are really weak.

Is it just me or is this kind of cool? I wish they would have kept up with the A-100's all the way through the 80's. Why did the auto industry in general go away from the van with a truck bed design? It would make perfect sense for a city delivery vehicle.

Hey guys I posted this here since it's not a Mopar related issue. However this is my work truck and I need to fix this thing. When I disconnect the cable at the trans I can spin it with a drill and the speedo works fine. However once connected back up it simply doesn't work. What is the issue?

I'm not a big fan of vans but was wondering whether any of you guys have fixed up an old Dodge Tradesmen or some other model of Dodge van. I know vans were big at one time so perhaps a few guys still holding on to the van? Or perhaps you have a Dodge van as a parts chaser?

Hey do any of you guys have your PPL or higher license for flying? Or do you have an interest in general aviation aircraft? I'm curious to see how many Mopar enthusiasts love muscle both on the ground and in the sky. I am thinking about someday perhaps looking into getting a PPL when...

How can you delineate between a bad speedometer or a bad speedo cable/gear? I ask because the speedometer on my 69 Chevy pickup stopped working and I really want to fix it. However, I don't want to just throw parts at the issue without knowing specifically what the issue may be.

Okay guys last time I had a tractor issue this forum came through big time for me. So here's my issue. I have a fifty's Ford tractor with a 172 four cylinder gas engine. I have absolutely no spark at the points. Should I be looking at replacing the coil or is there another possible issue?

I've noticed the big trend towards huge, lifted, diesel crew cabs these days when it comes choosing a truck to haul car parts and do the occasional tow job. Everyone seems to want the big mufflers, huge blow off valves, shoot, I think some guys even add engine breaks to their "rigs". Come on...

Hey guys I have a 69 Chevy Pickup that I converted from a stock 2bbl to an Edelbrock 650. What kit do I need from Edelbrock in order to hook up the old 2bbl linkages to the Eddie properly? Right now I have the kickdown cable disconnected with the throttle only being connected. Overall it...

Okay guys I need some advice on this one. In May I had my Massey Ferguson 290 taken to a mechanic about twenty miles from my home. He had accomplished several little repairs on some other machinery so I thought he could handle the hydraulic issue with this machine. Now, he openly told me this...

Has anyone else around here received the TDAP vaccination recently? If so did you get general body aches and an overall tired feeling? I got one on Friday and yesterday afternoon after working out I've experienced a general body ache and malaise that is really annoying me.

Currently I'm working on a Massey Ferguson 165 tractor that has a bunch of fuel leaks due to rubber hose being used instead of some hard line. I've bought steel fuel line before and have shaped it on other tractors. However, being diesel how do I go about this? What kind of line do I use and...

You know guys I was just thinking about the differences, if any, between Chevy, Ford, and Mopar enthusiasts and though we all have a common love of old muscle there is one thing that I feel separates us from the rest. Mopar guys/ladies seem to be a little rougher around the edges. I consider...

I know many of you guys don't know me too well since I've been a sporadic member. However I am hoping to get some thoughts, prayers, and even advice since my Grandfather is in the hospital and it looks like his time could be coming to an end. It's not a surprise since his health has been in...
