Always had a soft spot for the Furys . When I was 16 my dad brought home this one owner little old lady car it was a 1971 Fury that he bought from a old Pinnellas county deputy sheriff. I remember looking under that hood and thinking “dang that’s a big motor” . We nicknamed that car “The Green...
Thanks for the offer man ! We actually got it all sorted out . We are down to our last little thing (oil leak from the filter housing) just waiting for parts . Sounds like some fun Mopar history you have . My 17 year old would love to straight pipe the thing. He actually wants cut outs for...
Having some issues with the brake kit we put on , either vacuum related or linkage ratios or something. The tuning of the shift linkage, and a good going over .
So does anyone recommend a mechanic for classic cars kinda near Woodstock/Roswell?if not I can tow wherever. We have a 65 Barracuda my son and I were working on over the summer but he is back in school and I have been handed a big project at work. We have all the major stuff done just need a...
Sorry you had the disappointment. I just realized you are returning the truck . I really liked the way mine drove and the conservative looks . My lifers made it over 60k before the one bank went and I never had a transmission issue (other than computer flashes) . It did burn oil even after...
Probably the PCV valve cover issue especially with the low miles if the oil was not changed often (time wise) . There is a service bulletin on that. May not be a big deal
I personally love Jeeps and have restored 4 CJ8s and owned 2 YJs and a TJ Unlimited. They get in your blood and you put up with all the crap that comes with them . It's al lot like the WRX and Ducati culture I am also a part of . That being said we are starting to look for my son and have a cool...
We have owned 2 WRXs a Forester and a Impreza wagon (Saab 92x) . They were all fun to drive and handle better than most cars and have great crash ratings . Both WRXs were flawless sold them with 90k ish miles . The Forester did have the dreaded head gasket issue . The wagon did great for 180k...
Long live the ring dings ! I currently have a 1975 Dt175 , quite possibly the nicest 04 YZ 250 around. 07 YZ 250 08 YZ 125 built to a 144 and a 01 CR 500 as well as my son's own 50 and KX 65 super moto !
I once traded two 944 wheels for a Yugo and gave it to a kid that worked for us . Served him well for a couple years to get to and from work. Parts were insane cheap I remember getting a brake master cylinder for like 8 bucks or something crazy. The car was a simple as Democratic rock . Best...
Always have a non interested party do a "pre purchase inspection" . If the dealer will not agree you know he is hiding something. I used to do appraisals for a living and you would be amazed at what they hide or sometimes just honestly just don't notice. I personally have driven hundreds of...
Carfax only gets what is reported. My wifes Mercedes has a clean Carfax but has had multiple "incidents" from both her , her mom and the past owner. I have looked at many cars in the past , mostly at Carmax with "clean" history that had been wrecked before. Your best bet is to pay a pro to look...
