    Tire size

    You want to go as 'big' as possible or as 'wide' as possible"? Several parts to the equation: - What's the back spacing of the rim you are using? - What's the width of said rim? - Do you want all 4 tires the same width, or a bit narrowed on the front? - Approx how high/ low do you want the...

    What are these brackets on my 67?

    If you are referring to the one in the trans it depends on your rear end gears...and tire size.

    What are these brackets on my 67?

    My '66 had them as well...tie downs. Removed them when I installed the '67 GTX exhaust tips. That's where the hangers mount.

    A short in the switch in the dash.

    Sad day in mopar world. Sometimes money dont matter

    It's not a waste of time if it's building a good rapport with the owner and his son. One never knows what may happen in the next year...5 years...10 years. - - - Updated - - - With an offer like that, I don't think he was considering any profit margin...just a chance to fulfill a dream of...

    1967 Dodge Charger hood insulation recommendation

    So the factory molded piece provides no insulation? Why did they bother to spend the money and install it then? Seems it would do nothing more than cut into their profit margin. As for 'all that money', the cheap stuff is $35 and the factory molded look is $94.

    1967 Dodge Charger hood insulation recommendation

    While the molded is higher priced, the fit and finish compared to the 'cheap stuff' is night and day. The cheap stuff looks like 'construction insulation' when done.

    A/C and re-sell value

    I would leave it in place...even if it doesn't work. Rarely do you see cars this old with original, factory a/c. Working or not, it adds to the interest under the hood! As for re-sale. A buyer would much rather have it in place and in tact than a box of parts they are 'told' are all there...

    glove box light

    That looks like the courtesy light that is under my dash on the passenger side. It mounts to the bottom edge of the dash with a sheet metal screw and shines down on the passenger foot well area...comes on when the dome lights do...(my Belvedere II has the 'sconce' lights on the insides of the...

    Red line tires

    I thought Coker would custom make any tire you wanted :shruggy: ...just have to call them.

    Seats before and after

    Seats look great! Unfortunately, they make the lap belt look worn out. There are places that can re-web the belts though... http://www.sharonswebinc.com/ http://www.ssnake-oyl.com/ http://www.pythonrestoration.com/

    toss the poly 318 for 360?

    I just don't get this mindset. This is what the followers do. I walk down the show car lines at Carlisle looking at the mid-sixties Mopars that have been redone. 95plus percent have done as you said, replaced their Poly for some gas guzzling big block that they can hardly drive due to needing...

    toss the poly 318 for 360?

    As one who has been down this road I agree, prices for machine work & internal parts are comparable for other small blocks. If someone quotes you otherwise they are falsely jacking the price. Many parts interchange with the LA motors. Search Gary Pavlovich on this site and contact him with a...

    Gauge bezel restoration

    I also sent mine to Glenn a couple years ago. At the time, he took a bit longer than I was quoted, but I was very pleased with the results. I would use him again.

    Advice on replacing Dash wiring harness for 67 Charger

    Removing the gauge cluster gives you easier access to removing the old harness & laying in the new harness. Much easier sitting up vice lying on your back...

    First Big Car Show

    Maybe you could try fabbing up a heat shield for your current setup?...before comitting to the bigger modifications.

    What do you think of this look?

    By shortening up the exhaust hangers at the mufflers and the ones on the tail pipes, that whole system will tuck right up where it's supposed to be.
  19. Dako

    What do you think of this look?

    I think the pipes just may not be installed correctly...they look too low. I would think some adjustments at the hangers would tuck everything up where it should be? That would simply be time spent under the car (free$$)! Good luck with the vibration.

    What do you think of this look?

    Front tires look a bit 'heavy' IMO, but fine. I'm guessing you went same size all the way`round so you can get the full benefits of tire rotation...I wouldn't change them for sake of appearance.
