    Need a crash course in D100 (1966)

    Although I have yet to install it or use it, I ended up buying a reverse-direction version of this from them via Summit.... https://classicperform.com/media/tech-ins/CP50006instructions.pdf For my A100. It took me a long time to find something that would work. It's pretty cosy in that area...

    Have you ever had to let a friend go?

    I have a guy who is in my phone contacts but is on permanent ignore - which means if he rings me, it goes straight to message. I have another friend who has told me many times that the first guy says I am hard to get hold of. It started because the first guy is one of those who gets you to do...

    Need Help and Suggestions on Frame up Ranger Restoration.

    Do you have the VIN tag etc.....I think this might have been a one of one from the factory. I saw some bumpers for sale that would fit this over at FABO yesterday. 👍
