Dodge D100 Tank

Presented by Holley!

Phase 3 of Kibbe and Friends is officially here, and Holley is back for more fun, foolishness, and flying orange Chargers!

Holley to the rescue! Just when you thought you wouldn’t ever find a suitable not-crappy-old-factory-plastic fuel tank for your 1974-80 Dodge D100 (of D150), Holley arrives like a hero atop a unicorn. These full replacement tanks are made from from stamped steel with provisions for in-tank Retrofit fuel modules that can support carbureted or fuel-injected engines (use with Holley or Sniper In-Tank Retrofit fuel module). This fuel tank is finished in a semi-gloss black powder-coated finish and comes with mounting straps and a fuel filler hose with clamps. The fuel gauge sending unit PN 19-162 and In-Tank Retrofit fuel module PN 12-129 (carbureted engines) or 19-360 (fuel injected engines) are sold separately.

Just visit Holley.com to peruse and view for yourself and be SURE to tell them that we sent you!

Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLouise: Cannonball Run 2

Movie Review: Cannonball Run 2

KF Movie Summary:

To commemorate our 250th episode we bring you Cannonball Run 2. By today’s standards it’s crass, racist, sexist, and a hilariously offensive automotive escape from reality. Back then though, it just was a crass yet hilarious automotive escape from reality. It stars everyone fun and funny from 1984 as you would expect from Burt Reynolds to Don Knotts to Frank Sinatra. If you liked the first Cannonball Run you’ll love this one….because it’s the same movie. Again. The Rigatoni’s and Fettuccine are in the mob, people pretending to be sheiks only because they have big noses, and John Schneider’s personal Lamborghini Countach makes an appearance with Catherine Bach! The cars are as big as the stars and they do what cars do best: slide and fly. This movie was hated by Siskel and Ebert because they hated movies that don’t make you think. But we don’t need to think. We never did. 10-Stars.

National Parts Depot Presents: Bernie on the News

Also in this episode….the good people at National Parts Depot have to decided 2023 is the year to present the Award Winning Newsman Bernie McPartland in his (self-proclaimed) award winning news segment, Bernie On the News. As most of you know, NPD is the title sponsor of The MuscleCar Place Podcast and has been since 2011. Their immense support of TMCP as a show (and as a company) can’t be overshadowed.

And now, the fact that they are presenting Bern in the drivers seat for the world to hear….is somewhat humbling. And by humbling, we mean frightening, terrifying, sickening, etc. Welcome, NPD (and Bern, don’t screw this up)!
