I need the throttle bell crank that bolts to the engine for a 65/66
six. This is the shaft that rotates when you push the gas pedal, moving
the rod attached to it, then attached to this assembly. then the carb.
I have several good pre 65 V-8 ones if interested in a trade.....KM

Need the tubular rear tranny mount for an automatic. Funny looking
beast. Don't know if it has a rubber insulator or not. Can't tell by
the picture. I wonder how hard it would be to fabricate? Anyone willing
to look under their '65/66? Measurements?  Thanks in advance.   KM

I have in front of me a three spoke '55 steering wheel *without* horn
ring that just showed up on my doorstep today.  Unfortunately, while it
comes with the horn button, I don't have the little piece with the three
plastic blocks that it snaps into.  Also unfortunately I left my ...

   I'm back working on the green wrapper R2 clone again. BTW, I have
not picked a color yet, but it won't be green. I started with the
lightest body/frame possible, a rust free 64S Challenger 2 door with
zero accessories, I picked up a NOS red interior from SASCO (door and

The April 2005 "Vintage Truck" features a cover story on SDC member
Larry Smith's 1941 M5 & M16 trucks. The color photos are great, and the
story is a good read. I've seen both of these trucks in the past, and
they are easily 400 pointers. Also check out the column entitled

Can someone give me the page in the 59 thru 64 shop manual that has the
rear tranny mount for a V-8 automatic? I just can't seem to find it,
and I know it's there. If memory serves it's a flat thing that mounts
to the boss just behind the pan. I need one (yesterday, of course).

I've been bugged lately by the first few times I use the brakes in my '51
coupe, after it's been sitting for a few days.  The left front brake will
grab but the right side doesn't.  After a few white-knuckle stops it all
works properly.  I took the right front brake system apart, ...

just got a message from my mom... apparently a guy I peripherally knew
from home (actually my high school psychology teacher's husband) who is
also a Porsche salesman used to sell Studebakers way back in the day and
has "all this old junk" he wants to get rid of.  Stay tuned for ...

I need an answer from some of you mechanical engineer types because I can't
find my reference books.  I need some special  grade 8, 3/8 x 24 bolts and
contacted ARP.  They didn't have what I needed in regular grade 8, but they
had them in stainless.  They stated that the grade 8s ...

Does anyone know what happened to this project? Is it in production? Did

I made a business trip to San Jose, CA this week, rented a car.   And by
that I mean a really generic "car".  It had a blue "bowtie" on the front
grille and the rear trunk lid.  The rear rubber bumper had "Chevrolet"
subtly molded into it and there was a chrome "Classic" script ...

A young cowboy walked into a seedy cafe in a small town in West Texas. He
sits at the counter and notices an older cowboy with his arms folded staring
blankly at a bowl of chili.
After about 15 minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young cowboy
