Well heres a picture of my lowly 292 in my 59 Ford. :)

Cool. Reminds me of the ex wife.

Wow, nice!

I will keep that in mind too. I just hate when people make junk. I dont mind spending a little more to get quality. I would rather have paid another 20 bucks and not have the problem with this.

Not that I am aware. I dont see any Dorman numbers or markings on it. I was told they are made in Taiwan by the guy who sold me the used one.

If you have or know anyone who has a 61-71 Dodge truck please tell them do NOT buy a repro fuel sending unit. Get a good used one and clean it up. Heres why. I bought one for my 68 Dode truck, installed it, and it seemed to work great, at first. Then about 2 days later (sitting in garage and...

He is correct. To me, all these new cars look pretty much the same anyhow. Rounded, painted bumpers and no class or soul and certainly no design artistics. Yeah there are a few you know when you see them like the Challenger but for the most part they are all generic cookie cutters. I long...

I looked at this truck on a Friday. Someone from Jacksonville had told him they wanted to pick it up on Saturday. That night I saw someone who I assumed to be the Jacksonville man ask him was it a D100 or D200. He told them it was a 200 He called me and told me the Jacksonville guy backed out...

Lol I had a friend who moved here from Indiana. I met him when he bought a parts car I had and put it back on the road. He was shocked at what we consider parts cars. I was shocked at what they consider repairable.

Got nothing done on my stuff. I pulled the water pump on my friends Duster and that turned into a broken bolt in the timing chain cover which turned into pulling it all down to repalce the cover and let him touch up the paint. Today I have some work this monring then put the Duster back...

Thank you. He is a character, for sure. And he bought the house next door to me a few moths ago so its cars and motorcycles everywhere here.

Thank you Actually I liked the steel wheel look too. But I didnt like those 750-16.5 bias ply tires with split rims. I was in the tire business for 27 years and I started as a warehouseman and tire changer. They can have split rims. LOL But once they were cleaned up and painted they looked...

Thank you very much! I have to include these pictures. When I posted the pics of the truck to my FB page, my son posted this picture in the comments. So I went out and made the second picture. The resemblance is amazing. :)

Some before and after (so far) pictures

The gas tank is now cleaned, sealed, and in place

The brakes and wheel cylinders were a mess.

Not sure how to list this but I would say more progress than build. Its not a full restoration but it will be nice when done. I ran across this truck on a facebook sale page a couple of months ago. The guy I bought it from had just bought it from the original owners a couple of months before...

My Valiant is a 273 V8, automatic, radio and heater delete car. I bought it almost 20 years ago. It sat in a driveway near my house for years. I kept saying I was gonna stop and ask about it but never did. A friend stopped one day and they told him it wasnt for sale then just two weeks later...

Actually it can. Because when I finished the work, I did a burnout in front of my house with it. Just to make sure the work was done right, of course. LOL The funny part is my son owns the house next door. I pulled through his yard and did the burnout from his driveway. So the mark looked like...

Thanks! I ride over 20K a year. I have owned many bikes and the mileage gets spread out over the others but this is the one I have kept. I am about to leave for a ride in a few minutes. :)
