    Is there a way to straighten front seat back?

    I'm 6'5" and have owned my car since new. From all that leaning back against the seat back, the seat back now reclines back a little. I was wondering if there is a way to straighten the seat back to get it close to it's original angle. Thanks for any tips.

    LTD on Mecum

    I recorded the Mecum auction yesterday and it was funny and pathetic that ALL the announcers are so misinformed about our cars. When the 87 LTD T-type crossed the block, they all said "that's can't be intercooled... only Grand Nationals were intercooled so these all have less horsepower". You...

    Has anyone used reproduction sun Visors?

    I bought some reproduction sun visors and it seems like it should be simple to just slip them on but the sun visor pin bolted to the roof seems too big for the space in the reproduction sun visors.

    bumper filler "blackening" question about "wipenew" TV commercial

    I saw this advertised last night during the TV coverage of Mecum Monterey. https://www.getwipenew.com/ I wonder if this stuff could work on our bumper fillers to keep them from getting so chalky looking. Most seen on TV things are stupid, but I was just wondering if this could work.

    Lost a great friend today, our dog Molly

    A few weeks ago, our dog Molly, started to pant more than normal. At 12 1/2 we thought maybe it was old age but after the vet examined her we were devastated to learn she had lymphoma.
