    sedan or hardtop?

    In the automotive parlance any car with a pillar is a sedan even if it was a two door. The coup name was from years ago when there was a front seat only cars. But that coup name has been used in other cars such as that four door hardtop/"flat top" that GM sold in 59/60. The Chevy was designated...

    Changing to leds

    I didn't have any luck with the flasher update. I had to buy the four resisters, one per lamp to straiten the no flash/quick flash condition. I bough a pair of Wagner LED, touted to be the best when it came to brightness, but they weren't. The cheap corn cob design, was the brightest at less...

    Aftermarket air conditioning

    Meaning hoses off open to the air. This promotes corrosion inside the aluminum parts. which will flake off, (In real bad cases) and ruin the compressor.

    70 roadrunner surges and hesitation

    Have you just made a change in something, that was followed by the stated symptoms ? That surging sounds like a lean condition, caused by a vacuum leak. Which could cause a stumble on acceleration. Look for a vacuum hose off or damaged, loose carburetor fasteners or loose intake bolts. If you...

    69 gtx door handles Chrome or black?

    A friend bought a new 70' Cuda, and it had a Challenger horn button. I worked in a Plymouth dealer, in the seventies, and saw very few mistakes like this. But the Plymouth van and Plymouth Blazer equivalent, both came through with Dodge badging at times.

    Aftermarket air conditioning

    As long as your system has been all hooked up, your going to have something to work with. If it's been sitting open to the air, then the evaporator, condenser as well as any aluminum in the system, will be corroded, and will ruin you compressor and expansion valve. You replace or restore these...

    Found A Set Of 68' RR Caps

    I paid out the back sides for them. Only one bad spot from brushing a curb or something. But you have to really look to see it. Some minor anodize loss on the outer rings. I cleaned them up with some "Winol," and the shined up real nice. Sometimes you just gotta throw them bucks down, to get...

    Dip Stick Tube On A Big Block

    I have a 440, that one day will be in my 67' Bel. I have a pair of the HP exhaust manifolds, that are date coded for a 78'. In my research, I have found there is a difference in the transmission dip stick tube. It apparently is because of these HP manifolds. Have you guys found this to be true ...

    Want To Raise My Rear (No jokes please)

    Shackles are OK if you don't go to to high. You lose some lateral stability with the added leverage of the tall shackles, with increased deflection of the rear spring bushings. There was a local kid, that was killed in the seventies, when his Thunderbolt Fairlane rolled over, at a local drag...

    Want To Raise My Rear (No jokes please)

    I contacted the seller of the spring brackets, he said I'd have to drill holes as the holes would not line up with the holes in the frame. I have to get under the car, and see it that's what can be done with the existing brackets. I hate to spend money I don't have to. And thanks for all your...
