Lost the keys to the car and found out a mouse had made a nice big hole in the headliner above the sun visor. I spent a lot of time cleaning and painting that damn headliner too! Can a good lock smith make a key to fit my locks or am I replacing all of them? Oh yeah and i managed to get black enamel over spray over half the car.   ::)

If you take one of the cylinders out of the car and take it to a locksmith, they should be able to measure the tumblers and cut a key to work from code. The other option is to replace them all and if they are old, it's not a bad idea anyway. https://www.herbsparts.com/proddetail.php?prod=280547
Not sure why this wouldn't fit 68 but you get the idea.

I just spent 10 K with Dante's and I think his service has been exceptional.  Now if my wife finds out, I am screwed!

Mine found my stash, let's just say I am in some hot water...

70 sublime

Wife needed some paper work dropped off at her office so I took them in at lunch time today with my car
As I was walking back I noticed it looked like Dodge parking because of the two Ram trucks behind me so I snapped this picture
Before I could get back into my car from where I took the picture I ended up talking to two different guys about my car ( one on each side of the street )
I usually drive in the evening and come home with the head lights on
Boy day time driving is a very different experience  :2thumbs:

I finally got around to installing the new PST 1" torsion bars.  Ride height is where I want it and I noticed a big difference in handling from the original 318 bars that were there before.

I actually drove mine on the road for the first time ever, even if it was in full roadkill mode. Naturally I had to go find a dirt road to have some fun, I've only wanted to drive one of these cars down a dirt road since I was about 7 years old  :coolgleamA:

Good effort Slowpoke, 17 years is a looong time without it moving, those old tyres would be hard as can be!
