    IP timing

    Best bang for buck 6.5 cooling upgrades

    You must be young; the wife is NEVER going to be done with the house. We've had Many houses over the decades, from brand new to old fixers, and it's never finished.

    O2 Sensors - Parts store vs Online

    What he said. The knock off parts problem is like a plague. Bit me a few times. 2 Alternators among other things. The cheaper stuff is usually not worth the trouble to pay double in the long run.

    1961 Reo Dump - KY - $2500

    Yup. it's not an uncommon swap, Hot Rod garage did one with an old Ford pick up. The Marquis, LTD also are body on frame, and if you keep the donor Dash, it keeps the electronics too. There's a few on YouTube.
