    Bad vibes !

    U-joints most often will show red rust powder around the caps. Many times they will start to squeak too. As stated above check all mounts, engine and transmission isolators.

    65 Only

    Honest I can't say. My favorite saying is "Never say Never when it comes to Ma Mopar" Cars have been built that many say never where.

    65 Only

    I agree. 1965 the Savoy was no longer and the Belvedere I took it's place.This is just speculation, Ma Mopar wanted just a bit more bling defining it up scale from the Savoy.

    426 wedge

    1965 if you are talking about the Street Wedge. Possible late 64 but I've seen them most often 65. Some hung around early 66, very rare. 1964 for the Max Wedge 426. Ma Mopar used what ever was left over. Mopar Collector's Guide had a article on a 66 Coronet 426 street wedge.

    Torque converter

    Had the stater go bad in one. Car wouldn't idle in gear and stall. I should say shut off when dropping it into gear. BUT it was a custom built converter. Usually factory stock Mopar converters rarely go bad.
