What would be a fair price for a core bench seat like this? Pulled from a 72 Satty 4-door... assuming it's original to the car but I don't know that. It did match the back seat.
Well, I've finally solved the riddle here.
Followed a hunch and installed the new switch in the column I'm rebuilding. And discovered there are FIVE key positions, not four as I thought.
ACC -- OFF -- ??? -- RUN -- START
Outside the column, I wasn't using enough force (for fear of...
Yes, thick black wire. My understanding, from internet searching, is the thin black wire on the replacement switch is a ground for (some?) C-bodies, and can be removed for A/B/E.
I ended up taking one of the old switches apart to see the inner workings. I could see no reason for a lack of...
Thanks for responding.
The ACC (black wire) has continuity in run... but not in the 'accessory' (full CCW) position. Doesn't make sense to me, and it's like that on 3 different ignition switch units, including a new one.
I have to be missing something here, I don't see all 3 being otherwise...
Quick question -- shouldn't I have continuity from the RED power wire to the BLACK accessory wire in both RUN and ACC positions? (full CCW)
Using a multimeter, I have tested 3 ignition switches (all out of the car) - from a 71 RR, a 72 Satellite, and a new aftermarket replacment - and none of...
Does anyone have a source for these? ...looking for the plastic insert the decal goes on:
Starting to wonder if they are reproduced, I've found 69-70 style but not 71-72. Thanks in advance for any help.
More progress...
Upper and lower control arms are in, along with the sway bar (none of those torqued to spec yet), torsion bars and front shocks. Steering column in temporarily to push/steer the car around. Steering knuckles, disc hubs, tie rods/ends, center link, pitman arm and idler arm all...
Going slower than I'd like, but I have the hood & trunk lid stripped & epoxy primed. Painter still has my fenders & doors.
After I get the engine/trans & k-member/suspension in (and probably rebuild the steering column), I'll go back to working the panels with an eye to getting the inner/under...
Seems like a good time for a Return of the Living Dead thread revival... again.
I finally got the engine bay & firewall painted today. My painter buddy made a house call. Lots left to do still but now I can put the K-member & engine back in! Stuck with the original GB7 Evening Blue.
Does anyone offer a correct mounting hardware kit for the bulge hood inserts? Or know for sure what parts are needed to amalgamate one?
The mounting stud stands on my molding were mostly stripped & missing the fasteners, but these are what I had for the 3 in the center of the insert.
Do...
I'm fairly new to Mopars, but I believe the LCAs on a 71 RR should have sway bar tabs?
I have one LCA with a tab, but in the wrong location for the year (?), and another with no tabs. I also have a Hellwig sway bar that came with weld-on tabs.
Should I just grind off the existing tab & weld on...
Needless to say I am quite jealous but also very happy for him. He's got a long road ahead of him, but it's complete.

Just thought I'd post it up in case anyone wanted to check it out.
Thanks. Unless someone corrects me, I'll assume a '70 style horn would work. Another assumption would be purple instead of black... (sorry, Mopar newb).
