I bought 2 parts cars with my 62 Dart 2 door, and even then I had to search for parts. I shipped a complete rear window stainless set to someone, with trim being long and curved and fragile, it took weeks to package, and cost something like 3x the purchase price.

62 Dart cop/fleet cars had the 57 Plymouth steering wheel.

Here!

New parts suck, especially electrical parts. It's why I keep a half dozen old alternators around (this was after learning my lesson on a new one, then they replaced it, then they replaced it again, then they replaced it and the new battery again, then I dug out an old one, problem solved)...

Take a test light and check wiring for power from one end to the other. Got power at the first low beam? And so on. Or start at the switch. Check the headlight grounds? I've replaced electrical components before and the new one was bad just like the old one, that'll drive you nuts.

Dimmer switch doesn't ground itself to anything. Power from the headlight switch, one wire out for the low beams, one to the high. Headlights are grounded on the body, at the headlight buckets, that's why the headlights suck. At least that's how my car is set up, switch worked when there was no...

Ground hub at 8:35 and 15:47 in the video, grounded bright headlights at 17:20. Imo, I would just ditch the grounds to the body, in my experience it just causes issues, whether you run another wire from the current ground, or 'clean up' the surface and have a better ground for a short time...

Yes, 3 prongs on the back. Sounds like your headlights are blown. I put a ground hub next to my battery, pigtail to the battery negative, grounded all my lights to it. No more blown bulbs and lights are brighter than ever.

My 58 has the brake drum on the tailshaft for park, and it still works. I don't like concept, but it holds the car, although I wouldn't leave it on a hill of any kind. Fun fact, to start it you push the neutral button.

Yes, I know, just checking. Whenever I mention the metal splash shields people tell me I'm wrong, must be fabricated by a previous owner or some baloney. Did not have a pic of the front rubber one, but it is correct.

Looks right to me, the one fell off on my driver's side. Mine also has metal splash shields that bolt to the frame and hang down in front of the strut rod.

How many swimming pools is that? For what it's worth, my 64 has a rebuilt stock 318 poly with a 2 barrel, 2:76 Sure-Grip, 14 inch wheels, TTI headers, H pipe dual exhaust, MSD. It gets such great gas mileage/litres that I never even bothered to calculate it. Better than any vehicle I have by a...

Thank you. First time I ever picked up a welder, and if it wasn't for fbbo I would not have got through it. There's an entire thread of me asking if replacing a firewall is even a thing, or possible. The good news is, it was worse than it looks. It wasn't what I had in mind either, however...

FYI, if you need to align the doors, now is the time to do it, ask me how I know! You should really check the alignment of the doors and door glass, and adjust both, when the fenders are off.

On my 62, I replaced the upper cowl, all 3 pieces, lower cowl, and the firewall, without removing the doors. I still have an extra rust free lower cowl and my old upper. Also replaced the floors, torsion bar crossmember, frame sections, uca mounts. Removed the hood, fenders, windshield, and...

Saw a set today of old school pie crusts on an old 50s homemade dragster. It had a cut up Morris Minor body and an Olds V8 with 6 two barrels. Of course, my phone quit on me. You can see the threads of the tire that was retreaded in the pie crusts. That seems safe, and completely insane.

For my 62, I got the windshield gasket from DMT. When I called I asked about the large gap in price from one brand to the next. He informed me that they're all made by the same manufacturer, go with the least expensive one, and I was not disappointed. I've installed a number of windshields, and...

Agree with Kern Dog, yet I'm guilty of Uncle Tony-ism. No space for a lift in my garage, but no heat! Every winter I say, I should have put heat in my garage, every summer I don't have time to do it. It's the one 'tool' I could use the most. In my defense, I have limited space, but manage to...
