Always heard good things about krown. As a kid, we switched from ziebart to this white/tan waxy stuff I thought was great. It held up well to NY salt and snow. That was the late 70s.

You sell them pedals and hump?

We drove them old muscle cars as winter beaters for $50-$300. They all had holes in the quarters, rockers and floors. Big blocks cars were cheap due to the OPEC oil embargo. People paid me $35 to tow them out of their yards and driveways. Nobody cared or understood what they were.

Morning everyone. It's been a while. It's not an fmj question, I hope can get your help here. I don't know where else to turn and I miss everyone here. We're still in limbo after the fire. My '04 2500 5.7 335k has developed a brief, 1 second death rattle first start up of the morning. I found an...

Oldiron440, Slant6Billy really stepped up and swung for the fence. For that Im eternally grateful. We dont have a place for that beautiful bedroom set or dinner table yet. But his offer will never be forgot. Never

Oh Slant6Billy! I cant even begin to thank you enough or tell you how much I appreciate your extremely kind and generous offer. The furniture is absolutely beautiful. I wish I could accept. I really do love that woodwork. But Im not in any position to accept anything right now. Our options are...

You never go wrong making a desirable car, home, business, anything desirable better.

Mmm Hmm!! Sexy! Did they discontinue there $900 ceramic coated headers now? Id never buy chrome but ceramic is really a necessity.

What a very thoughtful thread this is Old Yellow 78! Thanks for starting it! We can all help to keep tabs on our Unique Car loving buddies and long distance friends.

Polarity? Huh. I might have dumb lucked out and installed them, most of them the right way or they had a tab to prevent them sliding in backwards or weren't polarity sensitive? I had a few if I recall correctly that I had to flip over or spread the wire away for better contact. They draw less...

I wouldn't change carbs, get the 600 dialed in first. Your not looking to float valves. X heads can handle a .650 max lift cam, La-X or Ma-X with the #3806 valve seal. Stock Magnums are .525-.530 safe max. Suppose you could pour money over the stock Magnum heads and get more lift, but I don't...

BudW, I had thoughts of going Small Block for simplicity and handling since I have a field full of 5.9's and a couple EQ heads to start with. But that's all I have for a SB starting point. Since Ive accumulated much of what I need for my B block, Ive decided to use that and the 727 off the RV...

It was a sad day the day the RWD assembly plant died. I knew then, these cars would be desirable in the future, and they are.
