Hey All, just spoke with my NEW machinist. Seems the machine shop that built my 383 F***ed everything up. Got 4000 miles out of it. So now I'm trying to figure out how to get the CSS back on the road. I have a bunch of stuff but the only new/ rebuilt motor is a 72 360. Don't really want to go there....

I have a single groove nos one. PM if you dont find one.

Thanks everyone. Wally, you saved me a trip. I owe you a Yoohoo at the next HoCo swap.Guy told me it was his dad's truck and wanted 950.00. I told him that I'd look at it but based on Randy's findings I'd say after some parts it may end up in a Chinese engine block

Hey All, does anyone one have production figures on 67 1 ton dually's? Ute bed?
Talking to a guy about one, looking at it Saturday.
Thanks in advance, Bob

Thanls WD and TX,thanks for the info. After monkeying around with it I figured thats what I would have to do. The only problem now is I need studs that are a little longer. I dont like the number of threads engaged on my torqthrusts. Guess I'll have to hit the machine shop ( or throw a Fatman kit on...

Hi Sooper, so everytime a drum needed to be replaced you had to replace the studs? There is no knurl for a reason. Mine just tapped out with a hammer.
Thanks for the response.

Hey All, can someone explain the front wheel studs on my D100 1967? Are they designed to pop in and out for drum replacement? I tried to convert to RH thread yesterday with what Rock Auto said was replacement studs. The new ones are knurled and the old ones are not and just kind float there. Any inf...

The 14x18. Why can you get em bigger? How much $?

I think I like the one with flames. Do you have that in the big size?
thanks, Bob

Hey All, no, I'm not dead- just been busy selling the race car and parts. Question- has anyone put a set of long or short ram intakes on a sweptline? I've always liked the look and kicking around the idea of putting them on the CSS. Info/ pix/comments/ girlfriends pictures, etc. appreciated :dance Bob

saw your truck, didn't see you. Carb is still out- ran like crap and it was hot and humid. I am quite disappointed in myself. Go to my room.

I just found out about this today. Crofton Md. Gates open at 9am. I WILL be taking the 68 Cuda to RACE!!!!
I'll show that freakin red light who's boss this time Since it's an AMC show they won't let Mopars down the track till
12 noon
So who's in? Wally? Surf? Bueller?

Thanks guys, Wally, where'd you find that pic? You didn't miss any parts- 4 or 5 vendors with odds and ends. Next stop, Carlisle.

Hey guys, he supposedly replaced the dist cap, as for the computer not sure. I did notice most of the engine compartment had a reddish dust on it. I've seen that before when wall receptacles blow up

Well took the CSS to the 75-80 dragway yesterday in Monrovia Md. Good news is I won in the truck category. Bad news is I was the only truck
Weather was great and got a few parts. Wally was absent and reported missing.

Hey all, I'm looking to buy a truck that the owner watered down with a garden hose( degreasing the 318). It's a 89 d150 with TBI. What needs to be replaced?
ECM? Any thoughts are appreciated.
thanks, bob

The guy next to me in the pits at the Hagerstown show had a Chevy motor in his 86 charger. He was going for his 9 sec license or something. Car was fast. I had a wire pull loose and he helped me with the splice.Nice guy .

Just got my MCG yesterday, what a great article and edition. I'll have to bring it to Carlisle for Ben to autograph :Thumbsup And that 71 sunroof Charger is just what I've always wanted. It looks sweet with the Cragars. I could really rack up the miles in that one. I need a sunroof car. Good job Ben...

I think someone here was looking for the side steps?

Does anyone know how many years the trucks came w/ these? My 67 has the original. I might have an extra for sale.
Thanks and see ya in Columbus
