Starting problem on an 81
After the car is driven for a while the starter will not will not do anything, but all the dash lites come on when I turn the key. After a while I try it and it kicks over. I've put 2 new starters on, a new battery, altenator. anyone have any suggestions ?

Sounds like starter heat soak. Try a mini starter or an insulation blanket over your starter. You may want to check to see how hot your tailpipes are running too if you have access to an infrared thermometer.
