    Looking for photo of inner trunk tail light cover for a 66 Charger

    I will try and use these pictures and start with a cardboard mockup. I will post my efforts and see if we can come close. It appears he had an original to just add some mold release agent and lay a piece of thin material which was first heated and then put into a vacuum forming press. I am...

    HI, Since I cannot find a decent used inner trunk cover for my tail lights and it appears there is no repops to be had, I am thinking of reproducing these myself. But what I need is a few nice clear photos of what they look like. If anybody on here has a correct one installed in their 66, I...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    Oh wow. That makes sense maybe the cable moved when they cast it as it was drying. I am done on this topic. I have soldered many many things and used all sorts of torches and welders and soldering guns. But I must say, I have never owned a battery cable factory so this stuff is all greek to...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    Never soldered anything in house wiring? I was talking about stranded wire connections. Speaker wires ect. I find flux and solder to be much better then crimp on ****. In my cars. Not in my house. Always wire nuts sized per the wire guage and how many together. Unless I use THHN wire in...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    I got it. Being in construction, I always tell my customers we need to really look close, but the key here is the word look. And I very much understand the crap we are making today from hand me down recycled garbage. But believe me, my antennas were up the whole time. I was listening just...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    So there is no flux used as when I splice wires and solder them? No flux creates really no bond? No bond means room for corrosion, dampness ect to set in? So that low melt **** only makes a quick for the factory cable but not really a bulletproof build. That is what I find fascinating from a...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    All this makes sense. Just looking at this I thought the factory just inserted the bunch into the end of the lug and pressed it with a press of sorts. I never thought that maybe the hole is larger and they poured some kind of lead in there. Looking closely inside, I would think that I would...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    My question is: Are those wires actually soldered before they are crimped into the battery lug or is that solder I am seeing actually melted lead from the battery lug because of high resistance melting going on?? These cables were made in usa cables to mopar standards of 1970. The new...

    Electrical issues with pictures battery cable

    OK folks who have been following this thread. I have been trying hard to solve this issue. I checked and replaced my starter with a new mini starter. I replaced my starter solenoid switch. I checked all the connections and made sure they were all clean and tight. It was then mentioned on here to...
