1966 Green Belvedere 318
Posted by: | CommentsHi all
Here is some pic's of my next (low-budget) project. It's gonna be a daily- driver, and I have no intention to to be correct in all parts,colours and surfaces.Just a nice clean driver without any bungle.Still have a lot to do on body, but allmost all of the small parts are done, including seats.The 318 I'm gonna use is from a 1971, and is now at a shop for a compleat renovation. Have no hurry with this one, (been retired,so it's a sort of "therapy",lol ) and I have my 66 Satty if I wanna go for a ride.

My ’77 B200
Posted by: | CommentsHi,
This is my 1977 Dodge Tradesman B200. It's not the best picture I have of it but it'll do. It has the 360/A727, 8 1/4 combo. I've invested many upgrades into it, unfortunately though it's time to sell. I hope to acquire another Mopar B Van in the near future.

New to the Mopar Club!
Posted by: | CommentsI was looking to get a car for my 17 year old son, figured about $3,000 was all I could really afford.
One of the very first listings I found on Craigslist was a 1969 Plymouth Fury III 2-door hardtop, in really good condition.
Since Saturday, we've spent right at $100 getting it road-ready, and $65 of that was for a battery.
Brake shoes for both back brakes, 2 upper control arm bushings, and 4 lug nuts and one lug post.
A/C is there but doesn't work, blower motor works.
Most gauges don't work, but after-market gas and temp gauges came on it.
There is minor rust in a few spots, the worst area is the trunk plate.
The interior is in better shape than my '98 Yukon.
Seriously, if I had spent $3,000 at a used car lot, I'd have ended up with a '98 Sunbird with 180,000 miles.
This car will continue to increase in value whether he decides to keep it or sell it later.
Seriously, I believe the car is probably worth $5,000 - $6,000 as it sits in the driveway right now.
I'm pretty thrilled.

uploading pictures
Posted by: | CommentsMy computer skills are not the best and I am as sharp as a butter knife with the cutting edge tech, but I have uploaded pictures to other sites and have not had many problems doing so. Is there a trick to upload photos to an album? I tried earlier this week and one photo uploaded the rest from the same group of photos failed to upload. I deleted that one and tried again one at a time and they continue to fail. I know you can't see from my end but is there a wild guess at what I am doing wrong? :confused:
