    Info needed

    A mutual acquaintance of mine that lives about 20 miles SW of Raleigh NC either needs a good running slant 6 for his 69 Dart or a recommendation of someone in that area that's competent and reliable to rebuild his. Does anyone here have any suggestions for me to give to him? Thanks, Tracy

    Amateur radio anyone

    I already know of a few other hams on this board. Just curious who is very active and what your into. I got my ticket 20 yrs. ago next month.

    Lost a good friend

    I don't know all the details except that a good friend and long time gearhead (75 yrs old) died last night as the result of someone speeding (cops estimate 75-80 mph at time of impact, 55 mph zone) and not paying any attention (no evidence they even hit the brakes before impact) hit my long time...

Pulled the truck into the garage to work on my amateur radio antenna and when I stepped out of the truck something snapped in the back of my knee and if I hadn't been close to the Cuda to catch my fall I would have...

    Well it isn't really new, but it's new to me. 2011 Ram R/T. I've been wanting to step up to a Ram for quite a while but just can't choke down the payments of a new one so for quite a while I've been looking diligently and found this Ram R/T for nearly $3000 less than what comparable standard...

    Good guy alert

    Just wanted to let everybody know about "Mopar56 Ed" is a great guy to deal with. I had an air cleaner for sale and got him a shipping quote and the gal at the post office screwed up and told me $20 cheaper than what it actually was. When I went to ship it I learned this but not being the kind...

    Classic motorcycle

    Been nearly 30 yrs. since I had a bike and I got the itch and probably enough money to buy a decent project bike. I know the newer bikes probably handle better but I can't help but prefer a good ole classic. The last bike I had was a 65 Triumph 650 that was mildly chopped that a buddy gave me...

    Why is it when you make a mistake when trying to help someone we have one or 2 old crabby farts that pounce on it. Instead of politely pointing out your mistake they reply sarcastically.

    Steve I've replied twice to your PM about the Duster parts I need. No reply from you and I see you've been on the board. Not sure if your not getting the PM's I sent or my mistake made you mad. If it was the later, it was an honest mistake and I'm sorry.
