    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    I wish!!!!! Bought it for about double that in 2019. It had fresh body and paint, freshly tinted windows, good tires, near new turbo, fresh engine (by what turned out to be a "lesser grade" machineshop, and kicked out both headgaskets within 12 miles!) functioning A/C, new aluminum radiator...

    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    Sell it to someone you are mad at or part it out, and find another project car closer to your end goal. These cars contain so many rare, unavailable, and specialized parts that you don't have and I would guess you can't afford or you wouldn't have bought this car, hopefully inexpensively. Its...

    Cold Case Radiator Top Plate

    There are lots of cheaper than $300.00 radiators out there that fit as well as some "stock replacement" units. I have had a Speedmaster/Procomp radiator in my 1972 440 Challenger since 1997! It was around $125.00 then. It finally corroded thru the bottom of the hotside tank about 2 months ago...

    Cold Case Radiator Top Plate

    Same issues with mine. Except following the wiring "instructions", resulted in the fans blowing air backwards towards the FRONT of the car! Switching the wires made the air flow correctly towards the engine, but the blades were now operating inefficiently off the backside of the blades...

    helium

    The off road racers have been experimenting for years with lighter gasses to inflate their giant tires for weight savings. Seems the latest trend is inflating racing tires with vacuum, it saves a ton of weight per tire, and Harbor Freight sells the pumps very reasonably priced. It's easy to...

    Replacement starter motor

    I installed that exact same starter about a year ago. I don't know about the new manufactured ones, but on mine the battery cable lug only cleared the tin of the endcap of the solenoid by about .050" (I never noticed it at that time) and when I reconnected the battery terminal, I must have...

    Quick performance 9 inch rear brakes

    I made steel bushings from round barstock and cut the end at an angle (I'll look it up, I made extras) then welded the stock stud to it and the lower mount. I think it was around a 23° angle. When I called them, they said that they never had any questions or complaints about it, but when I...

    Quick performance 9 inch rear brakes

    Anyone know if they ever changed their lower shock mount setup? On mine, purchased 2 or 3 years ago, the lower mounts were at an incorrect angle and bound up the suspension. I had to make and weld on angled adaptors to make it work correctly. When I brought it to their attention, they told me...
