    Bucket Seat ID

    I am trying to figure that out. I just don't see much difference between A, B and E body seat frames and I THINK I could use the A body frames I have with B body foam and seat skins. The photo is a screenshot of an ebay add from Van's Auto and they say the new seat frame fits all three body...

    Deep hum, not drone, cruising

    Happened to me years ago - a Dart had an annoying drone at cruise, it could even be replicated sitting in the driveway. Turned out to be a bad transmission mount. I put up with if for a long time before figuring it out.

    An update on my project - about the first of the year I began an effort to get the car to the point where it was running and I could move it in and out of the garage under its own power. Lots of work has been done and some money has been spent but because I bought an engine and transmission that...

    Bucket Seat ID

    These are my seat tracks. I was expecting a part number to be on them but don't see one.

    Bucket Seat ID

    Are the tracks interchangeable with the 70 B body? Looks like I have some things to learn on seat science.

    Bucket Seat ID

    Definitely buckets, but the car was a basket case when purchased. Bare body and a pickup load of parts the seller gathered from his stash - not all of them were right for the car.

    Bucket Seat ID

    Thank you for your help. A little disappointed that they are not even B body seats but it is what I got with the car twenty some years ago.

    Bucket Seat ID

    Guys I have spent an hour looking at photos on the net trying to ID these seats. What I KNOW is that they are not 1970 Superbee seats. They have a thin metal accent right in the crease in the seat back. Thanks!

    Yeah I have wondered about the long term storage of the top folded up in a box. But, it is NOS material with the Stauffer Chemical print on the cloth side dated 1969. I figure it had been folded up for 30 years when I acquired it so hey what's another 20??

    Well if you should see an orange and white 71 Chevy (I know...) K10 pull up that will be me. I tow my little travel trailer with that truck and make Morro Strand State Beach Campground our base of operation for a week.

    It seems to me that the majority of those who have colitis are able to keep it at bay with certain drugs or treatments. Once my wife was diagnosed, we tried a number of the available drugs but it came on so aggressively that her gastro doctor had doubts that the even the infusion therapy/drugs...

    A cousin worked at Guardian for 30 years before moving on several years back. Three Crowns and Deli Casa are a couple of my Kingsburg favorites. Pre-pandemic the Last Chance Band would set up at Deli Casa on Thursday night about once a month. That was an automatic for me. :)

    Matching Numbers defined

    After restoring a numbers matching 71 Superbee and hunting for months to find a few basic pieces with the right dates stamped in them, I bought a basket case 70 Superbee as a follow up project. The engine block and transmission that came with the car did not match so that monkey was off my back...
  14. Q

    New guy from California...

    Thanks for all the replies - yeah I understand the blessing I've been afforded, colitis is a relentless disease and I'll spare the details but Nancy had her colon removed. Before a surgery like that was possible, she would certainly have died ten years ago and without her I would have died soon...

    New guy from California...

    But at 62 not new to Mopars or the automotive hobby. I've barely touched my Superbee project for 11 or 12 years now, it got 'shelved' back then when my wife became ill (ulcerative colitis) and quit working and as a guy who participated in this somewhat expensive hobby I found myself just happy...
