    What did you do to your car today?

    I touched up a small spot where I chipped the paint on the edge of the hood, adjusted the hood alignment, and removed the rim-blow steering wheel and replaced it with a 13 inch black and chrome Grant.

    Thanks fellows! So far, I love this Mach 1. It is only the second car that I have ever bought. I have had lots of trucks, but finally figured I needed a car!

    New Magnum 500s Came In Today!!!

    UPS dropped them off late this morning. Everything was in there. Kentucky Mustang delivered as promised. Before: After: Before it had 225 in front and 235 in back. The new 235 front and 275 rear look a lot better, to me. Those wheels that were on there when I bought it did not look...

    Bought my first Mach 1 last week!

    There is a blasphemous drink out there called "Diet RC". On the moon pies, I like to pop them in the microwave for about 30 seconds, then put a blob of butter on top. The moon pies swell up to at least double their thickness, as the marshmallow melts and expands. Good stuff!

    Bought my first Mach 1 last week!

    I should receive my wheels and tires today, so hopefully will have more pictures by tomorrow. Plenty of RC in Middle and West Tennessee as well! A few years ago, 2006 I believe, RC introduced RC Draft in ten ounce glass bottles. That was the stuff! I was drinking two cases per week, until July...

    Need ideas for a steering wheel.............

    I love the '73 mach One I bought almost two weeks ago. Got some small parts i needed installed already. The wheels and tires should be here later today. I want to change the steering wheel.

    Got in a load of fuel today for this baby..............

    Thank you, Sir. The beard was uneven at that time. I had lost about two inches off the right side in a chainsaw last winter. Got it evened back up now, as I burnt a bit off the end of the left side barbequing a hog back in May.

    Bought my first Mach 1 last week!

    Thank you, Sir. Growing up the son of a Baptist minister, I never did drink alcohol, but I will throw down a cold RC Cola from time to time!

    I need a source for tires and wheels...............
