    they weren't Detonator Yellow. that's a reused code
  2. my pop had a spitfire riiiiight until he test drove a tr6. 2 more cylinders makes for a bigger smile. he had that riiiiiight up until my mom had me. still doesn't let me forget it.
  3. when you're in Junkyard Wars but they give you only 20 minutes to throw something together
  4. Spitfire. the TR-6 is more boxy above the rear wheels.

    tailgate tuesday

    even not-so-nice 'gates deserve a post
  9. is your tailgate still nice? I'm sure there are guys that would work out a trade with you for one that's less nice. or better yet, just buy one to cut up and then go hang your original on the wall

    fixed it.
  11. nope. but the gold ones were numbered and the highest I've seen was in the 900s so I'd wager that there were even more than that of the bronze finished coins handed out.
  12. luck can always be in play here.
  13. don't expect them to ever get any cheaper. gone are the days of $25 coins. too many people want one now.
  14. the conditions of the rims makes me curious as to the condition of the underside and frame.
  15. are those the actual previous wheels? or just an image of the same type? that rim looks quite corroded.
  16. there are millions of people who are living in small apartments and doing just fine. a tiny house is similar but means you don't have neighbors stomping around on your ceiling.
  17. somehow I doubt bidding will end at a dollar.

    the mounting holes are mirrored top to bottom so it's easy to flip it.

    your full build sheet is much longer than what we can dig up front chrysler. a lot of info was unfortunately lost at AMC before chrysler got it into their computers. if you look at a 90-92 MJ in the registry you'll see what I mean. but you could still have the original sheet of paper in your truck! possible locations are under a bench seat, behind a door card, behind the rear wall panel, or wadded up under the dash on the pass side.
  21. you can get a stacked washer/dryer that fits in a tiny closet
  22. 87-90 4.0 MJs had a closed system that can be a challenge to burp. best way is to point the nose downhill and carefully unscrew the temp sensor at the top/back of the head on the drivers side to bleed the air out. do not do this with the engine hot, but having it running can help push the bubbles out. don't completely unscrew the sensor. only enough to let air escape and then tighten it quickly once the hissing stops. the other potential problem is that any leak in the system can cause overheating. being a 30 year old truck means the parts are old and especially the pressure bottle and its cap (it's not an overflow bottle, though it looks like one) should be replaced if they look nasty as preventative maintenance.
  23. a bit of a throwback here, as I found an old photo of my babies back in the day. ironically enough, the only truck in this pic that I still own is the one without a tailgate.
