    What is the MOST cars and trucks that you have owned at one time?

    I think we might be thinking of 2 different style road wheels. If I remember right weren't the Road Runner wheels more of a rally type with 5 spoke look? I'm looking for ones like in this picture that were and option for this model from the factory. Also years ago when I was 18 I had a 78...

    What is the MOST cars and trucks that you have owned at one time?

    I swear the seats are more comfortable than the furniture in my house and the ride is so smooth. At the local cruises it does get a fair share of looks and the bonus is the long hood when up casts a lot of shade from the sun so makes from a great afternoon. One upgrade I'd like to make is to...

    What is the MOST cars and trucks that you have owned at one time?

    The big problem now is I like it so much I might have to find a 2 door version to go with it. It runs great and the ride is fantastic , when I got it I sprayed some oil in each cylinder as a precaution since it had been sitting. It took me maybe an hour to get it running, but 4 hours to wash and...

    What is the MOST cars and trucks that you have owned at one time?

    Thanks! I couldn't pass it up for the price, a guy at work had a friend, it was his grandfathers car and he had it in his garage for 12 years, his parents decided to down size from their house and his garage was elected for storage of the extra crap so the car was deemed expendable. I wasn't...

    stereo speaker question

    No problem, happy to help. Could never figure why Chrysler chose to run only one wire to each of the rear speakers when the front speakers have the 2 wires. If you ever chose to upgrade to an aftermarket stereo definitely use new wire pairs to the rear as grounding the negative speaker leads on...

    stereo speaker question

    The factory rear speakers used the chassis for the negative side of the speaker. So for the new speakers make a short wire jumper from the minus side of the speaker to one of the speaker retaining screws and hook up the positive side to the existing factory wire. You may have to cut the end of...

    78-79 Magnum guages.

    I just checked my 79 service manual, the harness will be missing the wire for the tach pulse which is position 1 on the cluster connector, its probably the case in 78 too. I do not believe this wire went through the bulk head connector, looks to go though the fire wall some other way to the coil...
