I needed to paint an engine for a Roadrunner and I decided to take a shot at TCP Global's 'The Restoration Shop' series. http://www.tcpglobal.com/Restoration-Shop/ in Hemi Orange. The paint is an acrylic urethane that mixes 4:1 and I sprayed is without any additional thinning. I liked the...

I wanted to share with you all a 69 RR project I'm working on. A college friend of mine went into the Marine Corp immediately after we graduated from VMI in 1993. At that time, his 69 RR went into storage in a barn/shed thing in Ohio. For the last 25 years he's been off doing Marine things...

I accidentally bought the wrong armrest bases at Carlisle this year. I realized this last night as soon as I cut the bag open. These are new repros purchased form Vans Auto in July 17. They've not been out of the bag but the bag is cut open. My mistake, your win. 50+shipping from 24467.

Hey guys. I'm posting this here in the 66-up area because I converted my 65 Belvedere to lever shift transmission. I got a column and most all linkage out of a 66 car. All parts came from a 66 except for the shift lever on the trans; that piece came off of a 340 challenger but I have no idea...

RS23VOA & I have for sale a 66 Dodge Coronet 440 four door roller. This was someone else's restoration project that was cut short after it was started. The car is all apart, but seems to be all there along with some extras. There is a lot of prep work done. The underside of the car has...

OK, we all know that harbor freight is handy, but you gotta be aware of what you're buying. I found a safe bet there a few weeks ago. 727TF's are kind of a pain to move around and store in the shop. I found this handy little furniture cart at my local store on sale for $8. Heck, you can't...

Hey guys, I'm trying to understand what prompted differences in 66 mopar column shifters. I have this type: But I also see this type around Can anyone tell me what models had each? Thanks in advance, Mike

just wondering if anyone know the length different in steering shafts for a manual & power steering 62-65 B-body car? I have a couple shafts of different lengths. One is 44.75 out of a 66 and one which I'm pretty sure is PS is approx 42 (coupler not off yet) I have the right shaft in the...

i'm looking to do a steering column swap for my car to move to a later start with transmission. I've read a lot that says the 1966 column is the one to use. And I am looking for that. However, I did find a 1967 charger column, that I'm very interested in. Does anybody know if the downsides...

All, Like many of us, I've used cable transmissions successfully for years. I'm about to do a new trans for the car and I have a later (mis 70's) core that I may like to use. The car is a column shifted, cable operated, '65 Belvedere. There are several threads from years ago on the...

Since wheel/tire combo seems to be one of our favorite topics on here, I thought I'd post some pics of a test combo that I tried. Right now I have 275/60-15 on a 10" rim The combo in this post is a 295/50-15 on a mopar 8" wheel. The wheel may be a bit narrow for the 295, but I don't think...

I have a set of poly strut rod bushings that I want to put into the car. Most sites that show poly bushings show the same part number for the bushing between A, B, and E bodies. The bushings, of course, are two piece with a metal sleep between them. When I try to install the metal sleeve on...

What is the general thinking on front end alignment specifications these days? Are the original specifications, designed for use with bias ply tires, still the preferred choice or is there something better to accommodate modern radials? per the book, caster: 0 to -1 degree camber...

My car currently has some new black wiper blade holder on it. Last year at carlisle I picked up a really nice set of 62/64 wiper arm assemblies. Of course the 62-64 has a bolt to fasten them and the 65 has a push-on style with a catch clip. What I really want to do is separate the blade...

In my Belvedere, I have the tach on the column down low. It's pretty much useless, there's no real room to get it above the column (column shift car), and I want a dash mount. However, I do t want to drill holes in my dash. So here's my experiment. I bought some neodymium-iron-boron magnets...

Here's a long shot, but the title of this forum is "Other stuff for sale". I guess a house fits into the "other stuff" category. I'm moving and I need to sell my place in York, PA. The place is perfect for car guys with the ability to put about 9 cars under roof. It's a 3400 sqft rancher...

Hey all, My car started acting a little wierd so I thought I'd throw this out to see what others think. This might get wordy, but I'll try to get all the pertinent facts down the first time through. The engine is a 383 w/ a TF, it's got a Carter mechanical fuels pump (the rebuildable type...

On the '65 column shift cars there's a little finger that sticks up out of the column. It's down under the dash and is connected to an inner ring in the column. When you move into reverse position the finger engages a switch for the reverse light. It's pretty common for this thing to break...

Hey All, First post here in the forums; actually, the first mopar forum I've been a part of in a very long time. Back in 96-2000 a friend and I built my '65 Belvedere. Like a fool, I "accidentally" sold it at Carlisle in 2001. Here are some pics from when we first did it...
