I'd love to go with an FE, but don't know if it's realistic... I'd really prefer it was a Fairlane too, but it is what it is.

Yep, it's got Explorer wheels on it... those gotta go! :D As for the engine, it's just a little old 289. The car belonged to my wife's father and has been in the family for years, so resto parts availability and value when restored be damned, it's got priceless sentimental value to the...

Yep, thanks! Posted this on another forum and they suggested Dearborn Classics... Dennis Carpenter too. Thanks again!

Sorry this is slightly off topic, but this thing showed up in my yard yesterday. Can anybody suggest good restoration parts vendors for upholstery, trim, repro parts, etc? Thanks!

I hear ya. This one is going back together after 5 years apart and 3 moves... I'm buying fasteners for it just to replace stuff I can no longer find in all the boxes. I apologize in advance for the off brand photo post! :D

Word all over the Mopar boards is that the Paddock is OUT of business...

Actually I need to do one of my step daughter's '67 289 coupe first! But I'm like the plumber with leaky pipes, art of my own cars NEVER seems to get done. :D FWIW, the '67 coupe is why I'm a member here, NOT to pimp my "side business"...

I know... but gotta protect my copyright somehow. :D

Yeah, it'll lift the tires... :D

Understood! That's probably the best you can do for now... FWIW, I've driven old cars with just "regular" insurance on them too. You do what you have to do to get by... good luck with it! :nice:

Your regular insurance won't cover it for what it's really worth in the collector market, regardless of an appraisal. That means if it got totaled or stolen (and not recovered) you'd come out on the short end...

That image even made it onto his show board... :D

That's the car! Rick a member here?

Yeah, it has to be in a LOCKED garage, that's their stipulation... Hagerty won't want it to be a daily driver or driven to work. But they don't limit how many miles I can drive my Runner.

Hey, those ARE 18s, can't ya tell? :D

I could probably do a run of t-shirts on CafePress if there's enough interest... :nice: Oh, and without the "sample" all across it too... :D

I know many guys who speak very well of Hagerty when it comes to making a claim with them--typically the guys will say they pay out with no great problems. I have Hagerty on my '71 Road Runner and can't complain either. But thankfully I've never had to put that to the ultimate test. As for...

Probably so... :D

The Snake is hiding on the fender behind that big front fender flare and tire... :D But it will DEFINITELY make an appearance on this guy's show board. :nice:
