    Fix for buttons on seat covers?

    Shoot. I was afraid that would be the answer.

    Fix for buttons on seat covers?

    So I did the seats in my 69 charger probably 20 years ago now with legendary skins. However right from the start the buttons would pop off easily as you slid in. I cannot for the life of me get them back on. Is there a trick or tool for it?

    70 Charger rust free fenders & hood "What If ?"

    I do. I have a bunch of 70 parts including fenders and hood but no 70 charger. I've got a 68 body with no fenders or hood I've considered making a Daytona clone but have since leaned away from that a bit. Doesn't cost me much to keep them and buying 68 parts is a drop in the bucket compared to...

    1968 Charger Sway Bar Dilemma

    Yes they can be added. I think pretty much all aftermarket kits come with bolt on tabs if your lca doesn't have them. I had no bars at all on my 69 for almost 15 years. She'd lean in corners but it wasn't unenjoyable to drive. Kinda like driving a dirt car. I put front and rear bars on it a...

    1970 383 in 1969 Charger Not Running Right

    It could be your intake valkey pan gasket as the leak too. I didn't see if you'd changed that and if you'd silicone the corners.

    1970 383 in 1969 Charger Not Running Right

    I'm convinced it's a vacuum leak. Have you pulled all the lines off the intake then capped them and see what it does?

    Identifying a 383

    Top front of the engine is a little machined pad. Will be stamped there

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    It's not that I don't like them. I'm just cheap. Cost vs benefit. At $500 a tire I gotta decide if it's worth it for my entertainment.

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    So my research isn't turning up much but is there much difference in construction of oval track tires vs road course ones?

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    I've read your thread probably a dozen times and keep referring back to it. I'm of the same opinion that my tires are leaving a lot on the table. I really need a new set anyway which is why I'm researching a lot. I want more stick. But also want to drive down my gravel road. I'd rather not swap...

    Anyone still have their High School ride?

    A 62 Pontiac Catalina, and my 69 and 71 chargers, all bought before I turned 18.

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    So the autocross club here kinda follows SCCA and kinda not. 200tw is the limit before you should go to what they call the outlaw class, which is basically no limits. I run what they call GT-vintage meaning I run a full size car that's older than 1985. This class is fairly open too. One guy runs...

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    Used tires isn't the goal. But the Hoosier TDR is what I'm curious about. I'm considering this. And it might be the smartest thing to do. But I is not always smart.

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    These are exactly what I'm kinda leaning toward. Just curious if anyone else has run them. I'm ok with sidewall flex. The vintage or stock car look is important to me. So absolutely no 17's or 18s even though I know that would make life easier and performance significantly better.

    About to own 69 coronet 440….what oil weight?

    I run the valvoline VR1 20w-50. It's not a great cold weather oil but generally I'm driving my car when it's nice and I'm running autocross so lots of sloshing and hard flogging. I ran 10w-30 the first couple times I ran autocross and I'd come back with a lifter tick. So I bumped up the weight...

    Soooo.... what dealer did you go through to get those?

    Road course/auto cross tires on 15" rim

    Oh I know I'm asking for a lot. A unicorn maybe. Performance is secondary to the esthetic. I mean the whole car is not what you'd choose for a competitive autocrosser. I'm just looking to see if there's something better than the Cooper cobras I have now and maybe scare some of the late model GT...
