Whether you like Bill Clinton or not you have to admit that the speech he delivered for the flight 93 memorial was nothing short of masterful. I watched it live and was moved. If you haven't seen it yet please check it out, it's emotional, heartfelt, and inspirational. Please don't turn this...

I'm right here on the southeastern coast of Virginia and hurricane Irene is headed right for us. We were going to head west to the mountains but I let my girlfriend talk me out of it. I'm such an idiot!!! I guess we are going to ride this one out, I know there will be flooding and trees down and...

Surfing the net today I ran across my old 68 Dart GTS on an auto brokers website. I was the second owner and did a major restoration on the car. It was nice to see it again, I`ve always wondered what happened to it. The last I knew it was in Greenville, N.C. but now it`s back in Va.. It`s like...

I`ve been looking for another car for several weeks now and just recently found a car that appeals to me. Unfortunately it`s at a dealer, which means I`ll have to prepare for hours of back and forth haggling with a salesman. I know I`ll hear all about Kelly Blue Book value and all of that BS so...

I need a new, dependable, car that gets good gas mileage and will seat 4 and a dog. I would like to get some opinions on what car to get. I have a budget of 25K dollars.

Here`s a guy that`s not afraid to tell it like it is: Received from a friend in Phoenix Australian Prime Minister does it again!! This man should be appointed King of the World. Truer words have never been spoken. This should be a world wide rule. If you want to move...

A long-time friend of mine Tommy Scott, died Sunday morning of kidney failure. He was a FABO member and went by the screen name fishman. His father was a Chrysler salesman from the 60`s and so Mopar ran through his veins. He loved Barracudas and through the 70`s had several A-bodies, then later...

I`m here in SE Va. and we have been getting hammered by a brutal nor`easter for two and half days now and we still have to endure another day tomorrow. It`s already rained 8 inches here in Newport News, winds are gusting to 70 mph (there`s a tree branch through the roof of my porch), tides are...

And you thought a six pack was hard to tune............................here`s an intake you don`t see every day. This things on Ebay right now, it`s a 6 x 2 Edelbrock intake and Stromberg carburetor combo. Screams nostalgia or rat rod...

Everyone here has seen the good guy alerts from time to time. How about a Good Guy thread dedicated to those who have helped out others on the site. I`d like to start with mentioning these guys: MtNemoMopar Daves66Valiant bobscuda67 Rick@Laysons Redfish Jefflock fishman BubbaC...

The generosity and good fellowship of the members on this website never ceases to amaze me. I was looking for some clips to piece together the two halves of my heater box. FABO member Jefflock took the time to seek out and ship me 14 of the clips I needed at his expense. The people here are...

If you`ve got a Dart let`s see it! Here`s my stock `68 GTS 340-A/T

I`m sure everyone here has visited the Hot Mopar Babes thread at one time or another here on FABO, (if you haven`t you probably have no pulse) but recently a couple of members have posted pictures of themselves or their wives with their own personal A-body cars. This started the idea of perhaps...

Does anybody know what happened to Battle Bots, the battling robot competition show that used to run on the Comedy Central network? I loved that show and it seemed to have just disappeared.

Ever since my 16 y.o. Dalmatian "Dexter" died in February of this year I`ve been blue. My gf and I have really missed having a dog so I started looking about a month ago. A litter of Dalmatians arrived Oct.2 in Maryland on the Eastern Shore about 4 hours away from us. We spent the day riding up...

Okay maybe I had too much turkey to eat but this sweet potato sure looks like it has a face. Memike does not hold the monopoly on photographing food. Lol!

Did any of you Canucks have the opportunity to see the meteorite that passed over Saskatchewan the other night? About 6-7 years ago a meteor shower of unrivaled intensity occured in our viewing area here in Virginia. I think it was the Leonid meteor shower but astronomers said it would be the...

I was watching Bullit the other night and I have to say that was one bad azz car flick. What`s your favorite car flick, old or new?

I don`t know if it`ll last or not but a cool new cop show made it`s debut tonight called Life on Mars. It`s about a cop that`s hit by a car and when he awakes he finds himself transported back to the year 1973. The characters are good but the cars are great. Lots of Mopar cop cars and of course...

Cleaning up the other day I was going through storage and came across my old Marantz receiver. I thought I`d pull it out along with a pair of 2-way Advent speakers and see if it still worked. Both of these come from around the same era, the mid 70`s. I hooked up everything and with a little...

What colors would you choose for paint and interior if you had a car with a blank palette? I found a 69 Barracuda that`s black with a red stripe and red interior. I think the car would be beautiful just put back to it`s factory colors.

When shipping to Canada, how is the import duty calculated? Is it higher for UPS than it is for the USPS?

Now that the Olympics in Beijing are over I`m realizing how much I`ve enjoyed this year. I`ve watched for many years but was really drawn to this particular one for some reason. It may have started with that awesome opening ceremony but I just don`t know. Wow 4 more years to wait! Who out there...

Here`s a few of the cars in the big red barn (a select few) as well as a few A bodies outside at this weekends Carlisle show. I wish that many of the cars could`ve been photographed with their hoods down but: Oh well, enjoy! Carlisle is one big MOGASM!

What`s behind your avatar? Some are self-explanatory while others need some `splainin'. Mine`s relatively simple, whenever people would ask...."where`s John", the reply was always "he`s long gone". So that`s me, Longgone. Yours?

I`ve got an Ebay dilemma and I hope to get some sage advise from some others here. The abridged story goes like this: I had a Dart GTS trunk panel for sale on Ebay, it was pretty thrashed but I figured that someone could use it so I put it up for auction worldwide. A Brazilian wins the bid...

Here`s a good example of inflation. I bought many nice cars that cost less than this gas cap.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=005&category=33556&sspagename=WDVW&viewitem=&item=150237818619&rd=1

Being a guitar player for almost 40 years now I`m always amazed to see players of all ages, backgrounds, and styles around the world that can "lay it down". Check out this Brazilian dude on youtube; perhaps not the most melodic of solos but this guy can rip the scales, sweeps, and has got a cool...
