[QUOTE=Slithers;47773443] Am I the only one here who doesn't think there is something wrong with their look?[/QUOTE] Theres nothing wrong with the 2015 at all. I just prefer the 2014 rear end more...and the 2015 cant come painted grabber blue from the factory.
[QUOTE=notlabbet;47773342]Anyone got experience with a 60s falcon?[/QUOTE] Nope, but if it's the inline 6 I'd buy it. You're gonna have an issue finding parts since it's not really a popular car to restore as far as fords go. They exist, but are expensive. I looked into buying a Falcon before and it just wasn't worth it to me, but any car that's from the 60's that still runs, will likely still run a while.
[QUOTE=DPKiller;47768528]I treated my self today. Bought me and my stepdad new cordless drills... [t]http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/productImages/400/c7/c751e460-58f0-405e-8eed-a2ed15997670_400.jpg[/t] I bought 6 of them refirbished new in box for 50$ a peice. Retail New is 130$. I'm gonna sell the remaining 4 for 75$ and call the drill for me and my stepdad free. *Caution* They will rip your hand off when a drill bit gets bound up in a half inch piece of plate.[/QUOTE] Nice I recently bought a set of Ryobi tools. 6pc kit with 2 batteries, charger, circular saw, impact driver, drill/driver, reciprocating saw, light, and multitool for $300. Came in a hard bottom carry case. Pretty good deal.
I forgot to mention, It was my truck I was in when I ran out of gas. After 6 years of owning it, I found out today that the gas gauge needle doesn't go all the way to the end of the gauge :v: It was so weird. I was rumbling along to the gas station before work, then all the vibrating stopped. I mashed the gas and even though there was no lights on on the dash, nothing happened. I was freaking out, like I said it's never happened to me before. I had to call my grandma to bring me some gas. I'll repay her when I get paid next week. At least I wasn't late for work!
Thinking about joining club dart
[QUOTE=notlabbet;47775472]Thinking about joining club dart[/QUOTE] Get a Fiat. They're more turbo-ey.
A 69 dart dummy
[QUOTE=notlabbet;47775566]A 69 dart dummy[/QUOTE] Darts can be turbo. Mine is. [IMG]http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e356/serj22/c2960718-ae37-430d-8703-4971639966b3_zpsnswgyott.jpg[/IMG] She's almost ready for racing too. Just waiting on my Mishimoto equipment to get here and I'm off to Sonoma raceway. What's the details on the '69? 69's a good year for them. 67-69 my fav.
That would complete the generation! Mines a 67 (cloning to 68), serj's is a 68, yours would be a 69, after that they just aint as cool so whatever! Need details on the dart!
fre$h rubber for the shitbox. also fixed the toe, hopefully gonna get a real alignment soon [t]http://i.imgur.com/DOXQrds.jpg[/t] btw falkens are the shit, I was running a pair with barely any tread left from a customers car, with my fucked alingment and they lasted pretty long, I flipped them so I can still get a little more out of them but fuck it fresh rubber feels too good.
2.4L I-4, 184 HP, Fiatness. Wait, that's that other Dart.
[QUOTE=mastoner20;47775886]2.4L I-4, 184 HP, Fiatness. Wait, that's that other Dart.[/QUOTE] You mean the Viaggo or whatever...
Nope, I mean the Limited Dart.
[QUOTE=mastoner20;47775968]Nope, I mean the Limited Dart.[/QUOTE] You're funny:v: We all know that isn't a Dart...
Meanwhile the New Yorker almost has its brakes full redone tomorrow I go pick up the iddler pulley and belt. God bless liquid wrench where would I be without you. So hopefully replacing the front brake cylinders fixes my complete lack of brakes one was siezed one was spewing fluid.
[QUOTE=notlabbet;47773342]Anyone got experience with a 60s falcon?[/QUOTE] Tons.. I rewired a 67 or something from scratch.

Depends on the motor that's in the car [QUOTE=notlabbet;47776839][url]http://sfbay.craigslist.org/scz/cto/5029601158.html[/url] Dart needs rescue. Won't trade for my miata. Need cash but I don't know if I can get 3k for my miata.[/QUOTE] Serj and Valon will probably tell you not to pay 3k for that and they're probably right but I'd still do it if I could afford it just to get it out of hipster hands Likely to have salt damage though if it spends much time near the sea so I dunno

[QUOTE=notlabbet;47776813]Somebody will trade me a 61 for my miata but it stalls if you accelerate to hard I guess. Bad news?[/QUOTE] Eh, could be many different things, but most likely I'd assume would be bad tune on the carbs/ dirty carbs/ starving for fuel. There's always the possibility of the coil not being strong, either, and weak spark causing the engine to flood when you dump fuel in by flooring it if the spark isn't strong enough to burn all that fuel from WOT. The good news is since it's a carb vehicle, tuning and repairs are pretty straightforward if you know carbs, or decide you want to take the time to learn, etc. First thing I'd do is pull a plug wire and stick a screwdriver into it, then hold the screwdriver right next to the block and watch the spark jump, making sure it's blue and hot. If it is, attempt to tune, make sure it's getting enough fuel at WOT, all bits that are supposed to move, move, etc.. jets are clean and open. The usual carb stuff. There's always a chance the mechanical fuel pump isn't pumping enough fuel or a dirty fuel filter, too.
