My thoughts are parking brake CABLE as well especially if, as you mentioned, you had to manually lift the pedal. Disconnect the cable at the tie bar under the floorpan then pull the cable where it connects to the lever inside the drum. Does it move easily? If not, lubricate or replace the...

Daytime running lights also operated at a lower intensity than direct-fed headlights. DRT systems did NOT also turn on the tail lights at the same time so you'd see cars driving down the interstate with dim headlights and no tail lights because the driver forgot to turn on the headlights...

Using your vehicle lights to see and be seen From: Transport Canada Vehicles driven in the dark without lights, or “phantom vehicles,” are a serious safety risk. Some drivers think a...

I'd vote for diodes as well. 90% of the alternator low output problems I've encountered in the last 50-plus years have been diode issues.

Check the end play on the cluster gear. The front thrust washer is probably missing or worn and the cluster was moving forward and you chipped a tooth. The chip, then, got mixed up between another tooth and the trans progressively chewed up the rest of the gear teeth. Seen it happen before...

Factory undercoating did NOT cover the entire underside of the vehicle. The factory undercoating was applied by two floor techs, one on each side of the raised body as it moved down the conveyor system. Later automated sprayers did not move around, either. They stayed in one place and the...

Yup. Been using that on my exhaust studs for decades without a hint of a leak

The relay doesn't need to be grounded. The horn button is the only ground source needed. The horns, on the other hand, DO need to be grounded.

Sorry for the fat fingers

I drove my GTX from February of '68 through January of '73 and put over 100.000 miles on it and NEVER had any cooling system issues. Factory 29" radiator, (4 speed car) factory clutch fan, and factory fan shroud. Everything's still on the car.

Accurate Exhaust system. https://www.accurateltd.com/ Duplicate of the factory exhaust system. No problems in close to 10 years (installed March 2015). Factory quiet 2-1/2" X 2-1/4" mufflers

Worst thing you can do. Now you've filled your exhaust system with moisture that's going to condense and prematurely rot out your exhaust system. If you insist on starting your vehicle every few weeks or so, take it out and drive it far enough to purge the condensation from your exhaust system.

From what I recall, MoPar tilt column optioned cars in the late sixties and seventies came with Saginaw columns and required a short, pigtail, adapter for the turn signal harness.

Valvoline VR-1 20-50 and a WIX or NAPA Gold filter

Original pin-striping from 1969. Only decals are my college sticker in the back window, my college parking decal on the rear bumper and a current NSRA safety inspection decal above the painted Plymouth (copied from a MoPar advertisement) and the Plymouth heart with the arrow tail in the right...
