Bill and Debbie Lussier, retired fishing captains from Maine, decided to try their luck at swordfish for the first time and came away with a catch of a lifetime for all those involved.

Fishing with Capt. Nick Stanczyk out of Islamorada in the Florida Keys a few weeks ago, Bill fought a massive swordfish for eight hours and, after a team effort, finally landed the 757-pound behemoth 20 miles from the point it was first hooked.

By comparison, the Florida state record is 612 pounds, 12 ounces caught in 1978 off Key Largo.

With the 1977 Chrysler, the left fender mounted turn indicator would light up when the gas pedal was floored. When reading the owner's manual the answer turns up. The car had a "gas saver" feature- upon low to no vacuum the fender light on the driver's side would light up, indicating poor fuel economy

In a 69 Dodge Charger with power windows, if you don’t have the keys on you and you need to close the windows, turn on the emergency flashers, step on the brake, set the turn signal lever in the left or right signal position, and the power windows will operate.

The side marker lights on a 70-71 'Cuda are the exact same as the ones on a 70 Fury I, II & III

Did you know that in 1958, the top dog engine option for your Chrysler car was the Golden Commando: 305 horsepower and . . . . . . . . 350 cubic inches!

"A Charger Daytona has the exact same rear window glass as a Vega hatchback"

Is that quote correct?

The conversion work was completed by National Coach Engineering (NCE) of Port Sanilac, Michigan

The Camaro Z28 wasn’t the only beneficiary of this creativity, as NCE also performed similar work on the Pontiac Trans Am during the same period. These conversions were all performed on these models between 1979 and 1981, at which point NCE went bankrupt, and the factory closed.
