I'm not much of a Dodge fan, but that white post car sure looks fine to me.
57 Chevy with turboglide used a bolt to the block starter and a 168 tooth flywheel. I believe a three bolt 3689 starter meant for a later stick...

Opel Gt used a transverse leaf on the front suspension. If that's what you have, it's likely an Opel.
If you're talking V8Buick, they're down for a full overhaul and change of servers.
So that's where the bobbing head dog in the rear window came from.....

44S has a tip that extends maybe 1/16 inch deeper into the combustion than a normal 44. As long as you don't have any pop top pistons you should...
I'm sure you can swap to a 12V solenoid but I'll bet there is a relay that needs to be changed too. If you can't find a 12V solenoid, your...

No factory wind on Studebakers, 59 through 62.
No doubt they had to make 2827 pounds to be legal for class. My 57 Vette weighed in at 2744 on a 2737 minimum for a stick car back in 1963. If I...
