    Neutral Safety Switch nightmare

    Hi All, Looking to find out if anyone can lead me to where I can find the correct NSS for my 1975 727. The one I bought from Napa (which is listed as the correct one?) works fine except it will not allow the backup lights to operate. I did a search and finally found an older thread where...

    Digitails tail lights

    I just placed an order with Digitails for tail lights for my '69 Coronet 500. I've never bought anything directly from them before so I didn't have an account with them. After placing the order I received an email confirmation from them on which was stated that there is a 8-12 week lead time...

    Hi All, Rattles drive me nuts. I am in the process of tracking down and eliminating annoying rattles coming from the doors on my '69 Coronet 500 hard top. I have found a couple of culprits and dealt with them but now I'm looking at the linkage rods that are attached to the key lock and the...

    Remote oil filter question

    I'm running a remote oil filter set up on my 496 stroker and I have discovered that the filter does not get hot or really even very warm to the touch after cruising around the neighborhood for thirty minutes or so. I know that oil is going through it and it is plumed correctly so wondering why...

    Hello All, Really need some help here folks. I built a 383 based 496" stroker for my '69 Coronet which is bolted up to a '75 727 filled with John Cope and A&A parts. The converter is a Hughes 3,000 stall unit. The flex plate is a stock Mopar part that came with the car and at the time of...

    Baseline jet size

    Hi All, Just purchased a Proform 1050 cfm carb for my 496" (383 stroker) and I am curious if anyone has this carb on a similar engine as described below and if so where have you ended up with your jet sizes? This engine is in my '69 Coronet resto-mod street cruiser. I doubt seriously it will...

    Rear view camera?

    Hi All, Thinking about installing a rear view camera in my 69 Coronet as old age is limiting my flexibility and backing out of my garage into the alley or any other situation like that is very difficult for me. Asking if anyone out there has done this and if so whose products did you use and...

    Hello All, I have just finished a complete rebuild of the stock front suspension on my '69 Coronet. All bushings are new, new caster/camber bolts, new ball joints, new shocks etc, etc. The car was lowered to the ground with the front tires resting on my home made 1/16" thick turntables in...

    New A12 hood. Best Father's Day ever!

    Just ordered a new A12 bolt-on hood for our '69 Coronet from Glasstek Inc. on Friday. I had gone to their website to see what they had to offer and didn't see an A12 version, either lift-off or bolt-on, so I gave them a call to see if they made them. A wonderful and very cheerful young lady...

    Hazard flasher for use with LED bulbs

    Looking for suggestions as to what led hazard flasher to use in my 69 Coronet. Also need some guidance on how to get the original one out. It works OK just flashes too quickly. I can't see or feel any fasteners securing it to the dash. I have the glove box out so I have no problem getting to...

    Wire color questions

    Hi All, I am in the process of making a stand alone wiring diagram of the turn signal/emergency flasher circuitry used in my '69 Coronet 500 just to make it easier to help me understand how it all works.

    I'm running a set of Hooker long tube headers on my '69 Coronet. They're bolted up to a set of 440 Source CNC ported heads sitting on the numbers matching 383 block.

    Converter ID help

    I know this is probably a long shot but I have to try. Pictured is the converter I took out of my 69 Coronet 500 which has a 1975 727 in it. At the time I got the car it had a 383 in it with a wiped out cam so I never drove it any further than from the transport trailer to my garage which is...

    Oil pan plug washers.

    Can someone recommend a sealing washer for a 1/2-20 oil pan plug in a steel pan that won't leak. I've tried plastic, nylon and copper and they all drip. The sealing surface on the pan is fine and so is the plug. I've been looking at the steel/rubber ones but would like some input before I...

    Brake light switch

    I bought a replacement brake light switch awhile back for my '69 Coronet 500 which promptly broke before the car ever made it out of the shop. It was the small cylindrical one sold as a OEM replacement. This prompted me to see if I could find a better more robust switch rather than buy another...
