This weekend I was looking again for someone that could rebuild my remote mirrors. The driver side works okay but, the passenger side mirror is basically covering the mounting holes in the door because it flops around making it useless. They look really good and make purchasing replacements a...

I know I could have put this in the paint/bodywork section but I wanted feedback primarily from people with eth same body style. First a little back story: I had the Cordoba painted about 12 yeas ago, initially the car looked great but the problems (peeling, bubbling, etc) started after just a...

I'm doing some brake work and had the replace the lines to the front wheels, after some research I went with the copper/nickel line because of the corrosion resistance and ease to work with. I went to flare the lines and the old school double flaring tool wasn't working (have they ever?). A...

I won't bore you with details but some personal matters and work got me side tracked for a while (my last post was five years ago). I have been working on the Cordoba but, most of my "free time" has been on house projects and playing with gift that my son and daughter in law gave me (us): a now...

Anybody know where I can get my remote mirrors fixed? They're in good condition but the cables are shot and won't adjust properly. A few years ago I heard that a guy named Jules D'Addio could do it and I'm now at that stage but, I just looked him up and found out he passed away in 2013.

Yesterday I used a piston stop (heads are on so it's a screw in style) to verify TDC. I set the timing mark at 10ATDC and screwed the stop in, I rotated the crank until it hit the stop again at 2BTDC. I did this procedure a couple of times with the same result each time. By my math this is...

While redoing the Cordoba's brakes I discovered that the distribution block was bad and replaced it with an adjustable proportioning valve plumbed to the rear brakes. I just recently learned that by doing this my rear brakes may not be functioning properly because there is no residual valve in...

So I have a MP 360 short block in my Cordoba and have been considering a switch to a hydraulic roller cam, the hold up is I don't want to mess with a bronze distributor/oil pump drive. Today a thought hit me, the short block in my car is actually a later magnum block (I basing this on the...

Anybody know where I might find a new windshield for the Cordoba? The seal around mine is leaking and I want to have it removed/replaced, the problem is I cant find a shop that will do it because they can't guarantee they won't break a 40 year old windshield (can't say that I blame them for...

Any body ever painted a distributor cap? I need a new one but it seems like the only ones I can find are gray. I have one on the Cordoba now that's Mopar blue and would like to keep it that way if I can.

Well, I was never actually gone just been busy as a one armed paper-hangar (that's probably not PC but I really don't care). Over the past year my department at work was reorganized (for the second time in 3 years) which involved me getting a new position (not promoted just different), my wife...

I just wanted to relay a story to everyone about Mancini Racing and thank Rob "C" for his assistance: In Dec 2011 I decided it was time to replace the original (I suspect so anyway) rocker arms on the 360 in my Cordoba. Roller rockers, good ones anyway, were not in the budget so I ordered a...

I want to advance the cam in my 360 and have the MP timing set but can't find instructiions for it. I know which mak is straight up but does anybody know which one is 4 degrees advanced?

So I switched out a one-wire conversion regulator back to the stock style and think I initially may have switched the wires on the alternator when I reinstalled them. Correct me of I'm wrong but if I reverse the wires the alternator will "run free" and crank out as many volts as it feels like...

So my son and I have been going to Bradenton for about two years now and each time we've fiddled and tuned trying to get the Cordoba to run as well as it could. We've had fuel problems, ignition pronblems, worn out valve springs, tractions issues, you name it but usually ran in the mid 14's to...

I took the Cordoba to the track in Oct and managed to run a 14.250 with a 2.004 60-foot time on a pair of 275/60-15 BFG T/A radials. Obviously there was a some wheel spin but it wasn't awful. On my last run I was floating the valves at 5000RPM and decided it was time to change the springs. While...

I'm trying to change the valve springs on the Cordoba without pulling the heads. I can get the springs compressed but I can't get the retainers to break loose from the locks. I've tried lightly tapping the retainers with a rubber mallet but no luck. Anybody know a trick to getting these things...

Does any body know what purpose the weight on the transmission tailshaft of my Cordoba serves? Mines loose and I'm contemplating just removing it.

I have an extra the secondary air door for my Non-AVS Edebrock carb and was thinking to eperiment with getting the goor to ope a little faste by trimming the counterweights a little (actually I'll drill a small hole or two in it). Has anybody else tried this? Is it worth the effort?
