    1970 Standard Gauge Cluster circuit board question

    Question first: Can anyone verify whether the '68-'70 NON-Rallye gauge cluster circuit board has diodes and capacitors on it or not? IF they are normally there, what are the values on the diodes? *Edit* I figured out this array of components must be a substitute for the voltage limiter device...

    "You need to do the whole front end."

    1970 Satellite 4 door 318/2bbl/904. Factory Air and P/S. Manual drums. Stock all around, in/out. I took it in to a local mechanic that has a reputation of being a wizard at adjusting carbueretors, since mine just wasn't dialed in very well. I asked him to have a look at the front brake...

    Under-Dash cover

    '70 Satellite Sedan 318/904 Factory A/C. There's what looks to be a fiberglas-reinforced plastic cover that bolts up under the passenger side dash, covering the bottom of the heater box. I have mine in good condition. I'm thinking it's a great place to hide a bluetooth interface with a little...

    Modernizing the seat belts

    I have a '70 Satellite sedan, F8 Green/Green, bench seats. It has the non-retractor shoulder belts in the roof for driver/passenger. I noticed that when using the shoulder belts, they don't cut across your collarbone properly and I feel like they'd slice my neck upon impact. I was...

    Classic Industries electric parts fail, strike two.

    Ladies and Gents, I have reached out to CI twice now, on two different issues. I've heard nothing back. Issue 1: When I got my car, the previous owner had just installed a turn signal switch from CI. Part #MD2085. It didn't work right at all, as it was wired incorrectly. The wire colors...

    Why it's a good idea to consider wiring harness replacement

    Over the last year I've had with the car, my ammeter would regularly dance like a pop star on angel dust and other electrical gremlins. I felt it was time to replace the wiring harnesses. I think I found one of the problems...

    WTB 1970 Factory A/C control levers

    Hi! I've got a 1970 Satellite with Factory Air. One of my vacuum levers (I think it's the VENT one) has broken. If anybody has an intact set, I'd love to buy. I can have my bank mail you a check, Venmo, or Zelle. If you want to sell the whole cluster, that's fine, too. I did just order a...

    Blower Motor Resistors - solution to the "unobtanium" problem?

    I have a 1970 Satellite with Factory air. The 2x previous owner had bypassed the blower motor resistor pack in favor of jumping a couple of the leads so the fan was either leaf-blower or off. The wiring connector housing was melted, and the resistor board was cracked, so I imagine he had some...

    Greetings from Concord, CA

    I'll go chronologically. Names of living persons changed to protect the guilty. Post-WWII, my grandfather (George) was a factory-certified independent Mopar mechanic in rural New Mexico. Over the years he owned many Mopars, including several Imperials. My father Willy grew up in the shop...

    1970 Satellite - electrical gremlin. Help appreciated.

    Greetings, one and all. I'll start with my problem, and then tell my background. Problem: I disconnected the "C/LTR -- DOME L" fuse so as not to drain the battery while performing maintenance on the front passenger door (repaired window mechanism) -- went to plug it back in, the fuse blows...
