Love the Marlin Model 60. Own one and bought one for my son-in-law. Like the styling and the tubular magazine.

Thank you! Starting to get the urge to drive the GTO again but the weather here is bad in Illinois. Hoping it will get above 32 degrees some time in the future.

My car hasn't had rocker moldings on it since before I bought it 28 years ago. Just bought the complete set from Ames. Anyone have a diagram of where all the clips go and how they are installed? I...

Who knows where this goes?

Wire and bulb socket fell down under middle of dash. Unique looking socket. Any idea where it goes to?

3 Speed shifter

My car has the 4 speed close ratio trans. I get tired "rowing thru the gears" as someone said. I usually wind out 1st a little farther and shift to 3rd if I'm just cruising around. Don't know about...

69 GTO wiper switch help

Checked the timing on my 69 GTO (standard 350 hp, 400) for the first time in over 20 years. I'm running 7 degrees BTDC. I know it should be at 9. Does any one know if running 10% ethanol has an...

Lighter

My 69 GTO has the "B" lighter. I had scrounged up an "A" lighter somewhere and figured it would fit because the knob looked the same but I was wrong. You can screw the knob off but the element won't...

I like the Cragars

I like the Cragars, I believe they came out in 1969, same year as my car. The lug nuts suck if you have to change a flat tire so I carry a spare set of lug nuts in the trunk with the jack.

1969 GTO radiator?

My 42 year old radiator is leaking and needs to be replaced. Have read both pros and cons of 3 and 4 row replacement radiators. My car is an old beater, not a show car. Any suggestions?
