I installed the rear bumper yesterday. I put the brackets on first and then fastened the bumper to the bracket. I installed the bumper guards first to hold the bumper onto the brackets and then I installed the bumper bolts to each end. Once hand tightened , I lines everything up and tightened...

I understand, I would probably leave them there as well. It makes for good conversation at a car show

I agree with Redbeard. With regard to the vinyl top, I understood that one could be ordered from the factory in 1967 and the dealers also installed vinyl tops after the car was delievered. The difference is the way the dealer trimmed it out at the rear of each quarter. The dealer used a...

I agree. I just restored my rear tailight assembly and this was my first time taking it apart and re-assembling it. I can only imagine that the pentastar emblem has a sticky back and he just placed on the lens. To each his own I guess.

I was looking at the attached 1967 Charger You Tube video from Hardwood Motors and I saw a Chrysler Pentastar emblem on the left side rear tailight lense. I have never seen that before and the description of the car siad it was an original one owner car from Arizona. I have posted a few...

Thanks for both comments. When I removed the bumpers by myself, I set jack stands under the bumper to hold it in place while I removed the brackets. When I was laying out my newly rechromed bumpers and bolts, I forgot how light the bumpers really are, and it gave me the idea to install the...

I want to know what is the best way to re-install my bumpers and brackets? Should I install the brackets onto the car frame and then install the bumper or does it make sense to install the brackets onto the bumper and install as one unit? I removed years ago when I started my restoration and...

Don, I like the spinner hubcaps on your car. Are those on the 15" wheel?

I have a 67 Charger, Measure the width of your dog dish covers before you buy anything. There are two different sizes 9" and 10" dog dish covers. I ordered a new set of 14" wheels from Coker Tire, waited 6 months, and the ring in the center was 10" wide and my covers didn't fit. I learned the...

I have received the 8/32 set screws and 8/32 hex nuts in stainless and installed on C molding. See photos.

Looks nice, I had my bumpers re-chromed last year and will be reinstalling soon.

Just ordered the screws and the nuts in stainless .

Just spoke with them and they have 5/8" long , Part# 94105A316 (Pack of 50 for $10.85) or the stainless screw is #94355A198(pack of 25) for $6.82. So once installed into the molding, I should have 7/16" remaining on the stud to accept the nut. So I will probably go with the stainless part. I...

Yes Don, I was just getting ready to call them. Thanks

All good points. My original idea to use a stainless screw, screw into the molding for fit, cut off the head and get the nut in place, then remove and re-install and see how well it holds before I reinstall the thread with loctite. I also was thinking I could install the screw on with loctite...
