    White Nylon Fasteners

    Our MOPARS have numerous wiring and hose fasteners that push into holes to mount various items. I don't know what the term is when searching for replacements. Usually white nylon? material. I've looked at various suppliers trying to find them but don't come up with anything under fasteners or...

    Oil Pump Prime Procedure

    I had a seeping oil pump on my 1966 383 Charger and purchased the seal kit after tightening the bolts but still having a leak. Removed the pump, replaced the seals (much needed), checked for any warpage/wear and installed the pump. According to the FSM it says to prime the pump..... before...

    Hidden? handprinted numbers added to my data plate

    Just sandblasted my data plate today to clean it up for a repaint and found handprinted, indelible numbers, likely factory, added to the plate maybe before painting. They are separated pretty far apart and has anyone else found something like this? Number 3 and then 12 with another digit...

    Charger Paint Stripe

    Would someone have a decent picture(s) of the original paint stripe that was optional on a 1966 Charger. My car did not come with the option but I would like to add it. Need to know the length/width/location. If striping tape works would like to know experience with that too. I have a couple...

    Brake Shoe Size

    I have an on going thread on brake problems (Smokin Brakes) but have a different question on brake shoes. I found rear shoes for the 66 Charger that have the correct location for the springs and e-brake hole. Meaning it has a hole and not a slot for the cable mounting. But when I ordered...

    Smokin' Rear Brakes

    I have an issue with rear brakes on my 66 Charger with 10 inch drums. I posted some of the problem after highjacking a thread with what I thought were similar issues but that has changed. As the car is new to me (one year) I don't know what someone else may have done in the past. I have a FSM...

    Brake Issue Using Dot 5

    Yesterday I noticed an "oil" slick on the floor beneath the right rear tire and found that it is brake fluid. The 66 Charger is new to me (11 months) but previous owner (deceased) had converted to Dot 5 fluid with a dual reservoir. I have never used it but considered doing so in the past for...

    Oil Filter Housing Leak

    I have a motor oil leak on the 66 383 Charger oil filter/pump. Thought it was the new oil filter I put on but replaced that and it's still slowly leaking. I was able to get a wrench on the mounting bolts and they each turned about 1/4 turn but did not solve the problem. Looked in the Dodge...

    Power Steering Fluid

    What power steering fluid do we use in a 1966 Charger or a Mopar in general. Seems they would all be the same. At least in the 60's. The 66 shop manual says to use part no 2084329. That doesn't help much. I recall many of the older units used ATF but I cannot find any info on what we should...

    1966 Charger Visor Tip Rods

    I recently purchased new visor tip rods and the rubber ends for those from a vender. They are advertised as fitting 66 to 76 B and A bodies. But after receiving them I see that my 66 Charger visor has larger rods than the ones I received. Checking with a friend who has a lot of knowledge...

    Another (different) Disc Brake Conversion Question

    I was reading today on Ebay about Toms Classic offering a disc brake conversion for AB and E body cars. The listing is for 12" rotors and requires 15 inch wheels, which I have on my 66 Charger. It includes spindles, dust shields, calipers, mounting bolts and brake hoses. All for $599. I read...

    Trans Howl

    I have a 1966 Charger with a slight howl on torque when shifting the three speed 727. Only on torque not when coasting. Did these transmissions have any noise when shifting when new or rebuilt. I believe the trans has around 110K miles and shifts well. Not particularly objectionable noise...

    NOX On A 66 Charger

    My 66 Charger with a 383HP engine was purchased new in CA and has a Carter 4 barrel with I believe an aftermarket 4133S CAB carb and a green nox device I believe mounted on the rear of the manifold. I recently rebuilt the carb and found a metal tag under the carb brass identification tag...

    Original mufflers question for HP engines

    I recently purchased a 66 Charger with the 383HP engine. The muffler system appears fairly new and correct with the cross over pipe between the exhaust pipes. They have a good sound at idle and on acceleration but they have a loud drone sound at highway speeds. I had a new 63 Plymouth 383 and...

    Heater Plenum Question

    The heater plenum on my 66 Charger is open to the inside and I can see the blower motor. I do not see a hinge or screw holes to hold a cover but suspect a cover is missing. The 66 manual I have shows a slightly different plenum shape for the regular line of Dodges. Those have a hinged door...

    Can Power Steering Excess Wheel Play Be Adjusted?

    On my 66 Charger with power steering there is about two inches of wheel play each direction when driving at higher speed. Can the stock steering boxes be adjusted? I only see one bolt on the top and the slotted ring which I assume is to tighten/adjust the assembly but maybe not to make wear...

    Help Finding Correct A/C Line

    I have a 66 Charger, 383HP with factory air and have posted on the 66/67 forum seeking a picture of the correct line running from the compressor to the condenser. My car has what I believe is a replacement rubber hose and runs thru the core support rather than over the support which is what I...

    Underhood picture of A/C Hose Bracket

    Car is 1966 Charger and I have been searching for an underhood picture of a stock A/C car hose bracket. Next to the battery where the condenser hose is going by it appears there is a bracket to hold the hose on the inner fender flat support. The car I have has an all metal bracket holding the...

    I'm having an intermittent starting issue that seems to be related to a relay. When I try to start.... the starter may engage for a few cycles and then stop w/o starting the motor. Then when I key it again ....nothing. But I can see the amp gauge deflect negative slightly and hear a click or...

    Faded Seat Belt Webbing

    Curious if anyone has tried to dye their seat belt material. My red belts look pink due to fading but the chrome latches look fine. I was thinking maybe a dye brushed on them might help and the correct dye would not bleed off onto what you are wearing.
