Once again I was forced to choose between house or car. The car sucked to sleep in and didn't have a kitchen so the car had to go. We all give moparchris a hard time but I have to say this: "Thanks Brother." You saved Thanksgiving and Christmas for my family by buying the #projectdirtbird...

Did some horse trading and got a fiberglass Superbird body kit. Maybe not the best. Maybe not made of high quality steel or aluminum. But no matter how much money you have; you can't build a Superbird from a Mustang or a Camaro.

President Barack Obama, surrounded by his normal retinue of Secret Service agents, walks into the Chicago branch office of a regional bank to cash a check. “Good morning, ma’am,” he says to the cashier. “I’d like to cash this check.” “Of course, sir,” she replies. “Do you have your drivers...

When I finally got the 70 back from my X it had 3 different types of wheels on it all with may-pop tires. I found a guy right around the corner on Craigslist selling these 95 Jeep wrangler wheels with tires for $40. (that's right $40 bucks for 4 rims and good tires!) I figured even if they did't...

If you have a stock radio and wiring in your 68 or 69 runner; you can listen to the radio without the key. (if the ol' girl works that is) Turn the blinker to the left or right turn position with the key off. Step on the brake pedal. Now turn on the radio and listen to some "hi-fi".

I sold the wagon this last week. I had to do it. I needed to make some cash to pay bills. (divorce is expensive) It was a means to an end I suppose. Plus; the guy I sold it to owns AAR fiberglass and is trading me my Superbird body parts for "Project Dirt-bird". I had it for 10 years...

Okay. Its not a "Road runner" per say but it is one of the few cars I still have after the divorce so I decided it needed some love. So I sent it over to the capable artists at Spade Bros in Huntington Beach for some massaging of the body and some bright ass Mopar orange paint. I...

Yes it was 106 degrees in Lake Havasu but I had some cold beer and some time to kill so here is what I go accomplished on day one. Step 1 - Put the car on stands. Drink a beer to cool off. Step 2 - Remove front grille or at least what is left of it. Drink a beer to cool off. Step 3...

Okay - So I got the VERT-BIRD out of car jail when my divorce was finalized and although this is easily the best cat I have ever brought back from the dead; I am ready to move on from this chapter of my life. Besides, the Superbird resto-mod isn't building itself. So if you always liked...

We just got back from Vegas and the MATS show. (Danged work getting in the way of my fun again.) We drove out from San Clemente through the desert at high noon and 85-90 degree weather. The vert-bird ran awesome never getting above 210 on the Auto-meter gauge and staying just a needle to...

Sold the 69 Charger and now I have $20k in the account to play with. So here is the starting point - a derelict 70 Belvedere. I bought it with a 340 and 727 for $500 about 5 years ago. After driving it for about 6 months I yanked the 340 and 727 and sold them for $750 bucks. I already...

I am thinking of possibly taking the VERT-BIRD out to sell. If nothing else a drive in a convertible roadrunner from SoCal to Vegas could be fun right? Word on the street in SoCal is that the prices on anything Mopar have doubled and are selling fast even at those prices. Maybe it;'s...
