    Electronic ignition troubleshooting help

    Tried to fire up my 73 Charger Rallye, 440, 4 speed today and it wouldn't start. This is my first attempt at starting the car after a complete restoration, so any number of things could be going on. But there is definitely no spark so let's start with that. I have an FSM, but its...

    ID this part

    I'm almost done reassembling my 73 Charger and have these left over. Don't know what they are and I can't find any reference in my documentation or 1,000's of photos. I did label them "L" and "R". Thanks.

    Looking for a bucket seat back panel that will fit a 73 Charger. Color and condition not important. I need just one, but will consider buying a pair if that's how you want to sell them. Thanks.

    Seat belt mounting locations

    73 Charger Rallye, 440, 4 speed, bucket seats. My car did not come with seat belts installed. I've been looking at some internet photos to see how they are installed. I can only locate 3 mounting positions per side on the floor. There's one on the center hump, one in front of the rear wheel...

    Brake booster vac hose connection

    On a 73 Charger, the power steering booster has a vac port on the front with 2 large vac lines going from it. One goes to a vac port on the back of the intake manifold. Where does the other one go? Of the thousand pictures I've taken of the disassembly, I don't have one that shows that. Thanks

    73 Charger quarter window felt attachment

    I have new felts for my quarter window interior panels. The factory ones were held on with heavy duty staples. The replacements don't provide access for the same type of attachment (and even if they did I'm not sure I could duplicate it). How does everyone attach these? Contact cement? This...

    73 Charger heater hose routing

    I've been searching these threads trying to find the correct heater hose routing for a 73 Charger, 440, w/AC. The FSM only shows hoses for a Coronet, and then doesn't show the connection points. There's a zillion diagrams on the internet, but they are either for older Chargers or other models...

    73 Charger w/AC tempurature control cable

    Can someone post a photo of how it connects to the temperature slide lever. I have the FSM but the picture isn't real clear. There's supposed to be a clip on the heater control unit. Mine is missing and I need to know what it looks like so I can track one down. Thanks.

    Need info on radiator for 73 Charger

    What would have been the factory specs for the radiator on a 1973 Charger, 440, 4 speed, and A/C. Is it a 2, 3, or 4 core? 22" or 26"? The bottom outlet is going to be on the right side. But it looks like the top inlet could be left, center, or right? The radiator that's in there now is...

    Dash pad replacement

    Anyone use the dash pad replacement from classic Industries for a 73 Charger? I'd like to get some feedback on fit and quality before forking out $700. What about upholstery shops? Any luck getting the metal core recovered? Thanks

    Steering column disassembly

    I'm disassembling the steering column in my 73 Charger. So far I've managed to get by without the special tools by fabricating what I needed or adapting something I had laying around. But now I'm at the point of driving out the pin that holds in the lockplate. The FSM gives a stern warning...

    How to test a heater core

    I've currently got my heater box (73 Charger) apart and want to make sure the heater core is solid before putting it all back together. I can inspect for obvious damage and rust. But is there a way to check for pinhole leaks that only show up under pressure? I do have a radiator pressure...

    Help with 73 Charger exhaust system installation

    Hello all. I purchased a complete exhaust system form Classic Industries to go on to the stock manifolds. A couple questions... does it matter which way the muffler goes? There are no markings to indicate direction of flow. On one end of the muffler the port is centered, and on the other it...

    73 Charger Rallye sail panel cardboard

    Can someone post a picture of what this is supposed to look like? Not the exterior trim, but the interior backing piece for the headliner. A web search turns up a zillion hits, none of them is what I'm looking for. The remnants of my pieces look like they surround the sail panel tack strip...

    Restoration Software

    A few years ago I wrote a freeware program called Phoenix. It was designed to help the hobbyist restorer stay organized during a long term restoration project. It also provided some basic accounting functions. I have updated the program and again will make it available to anyone who wants to...

    73 Charger ignition system questions

    At some point in my car's life someone converted it to a points ignition. I now have all the components to put it back to an electronic ignition. But I don't have any reference on how things were installed. 1. How and where is the ballast resistor installed? The one that was on there had the...

    I have almost everything I need to install a rear track bar on my 73 Charger. All I need is the left side mounting plate (that goes under the axle) and both of the little U-shaped clamps. Anyone have these lying around? Thanks

    Vinyl top adhesive

    I ordered a vinyl top from legendary. When I ordered it I asked what type of adhesive do they recommend, and he responded D.A.P. Landau Top Adhesive. When I looked up the TDS of that product it said to not use on vinyl. 3M vinyl top adhesive popped up in a lot of searches. But it seems half...

    Carter AVS choke question

    73 Dodge Charger, 440, with a Carter AVS. My engine builder talked me into an Edelbrock 440 Performer intake. I regret that decision now, but so be it. I noticed the choke well is different than a stock intake and it doesn't look like the factory style choke will work. My car didn't have a...
