  1. Wow people are nuts!! I've seen all the work you have done on the website.just in parts is way over asking price. Hope it all works out and it finds a home where someone can appreciate the work you and your dad have done........or you can always finish it at a later date. I have always found that when people insult me when I go to sell a car it is very motivational to finish it.

  2. Someone sent me this picture that was posted today. As many of you know Old bridge township Raceway park N.J.was closed suddenly last year. Many had hopes and heard rumors of it reopening.....but looks like the end of an era is here. I myself spent many years sometimes three days a week there racing with my dad , brother's and many great friends. After seeing this picture today I feel like an old friend is gone. Thanks to the older Nap family for the great times and to the younger Naps I hope the money was worth it........ RIP Raceway park. Thanks

  3. I know that SS cars all had black steering columns no matter what color the interior color was . My question is about our 71 402 4 speed car that my brother and I are restoring the car has a dark saddle interior that someone dyed black. What color should the steering column and the wheel be. Our 72 small block car has a dark saddle interior but column is black.I have heard big block cars would have it painted same color as interior but not sure.

  4. I have always used steel lines in the past but on my station wagon I used stainless steel. Had issues with the stainless leaking after use ,had to keep checking them to make sure they stayed tight. After a while they have stayed tight and have not had an issues since. I guess to make a long story short is if you go stainless make sure you really tighten them up.

  5. You could also measure how deep the old spring pocket are. I changed the control arms on my station wagon and the new control arms made it sit like a 4x4 with the same springs. The pocket on the new control arms were shorter and that made the car sit a lot higher. I have since went with a coilover front spring that can be adjusted for ride hight. Good luck
