Somehow, in rebuilding the headlight motor, the screws for the top and the electrical posts are misplaced. I went through the area they would be in, with no luck. They could be in the cabinet, but I'm not sure.
Where can I get or what is the size and thread to secure the cap, and I'm sure I...
Hello, I’ve read recently in a post not to sandblast the exterior because of sand getting everywhere and not getting it out. I’m in need of stripping the whole exterior of the car, fixing the little dents, and then priming and painting the exterior of the car.
What’s the best and least...
I tried JB weld on this and it broke again. I’m thinking of adding a little metal on the back, and then Jb weld, but that may make the emblem sit higher in mounting. Any good suggestions for bonding the two pieces together?
Luckily the posts are still good.
My sons car was purchased from New Mexico and it was bought paint stripped. Since it’s been unprotected it’s gotten surface rust (it already had some common areas for more aggressive rust). I have an Eastwood Countour SCT sander that can take the rust off pretty easily. We don’t have a...
Happy New Year!
I’m building a ‘71 Charger model and making it RC. I want to paint it as close to ‘71 B5 as possible, without spending a ton of money on a custom mix. I want to spray it. Anyone have any experience with any of the Tamiya paints or Testors that were really close to B5 blue?
These were included with my project car, and not mounted, so I cleaned them up and painted them (I like the black better than plain metal). Other than the wiper blades and their own frames, am I missing anything?
Thanks!
I cleaned the window with an oven top cleaner kit, and it came pretty clean. However there were some 50~ year old water spots imbedded and etched into the glass. Looked at all sorts of solutions, and decided to try a product from Sud Factory. Amazing results! Not much effort, and looks...
I got the replacements from Detroit, and the window cleans up really well with cooktop cleaner! How does the old rubber come out? Slide it out, pry it out? Suggestions, please! Thanks
My door handle has a broken spring. Can I get a replacement, and from where. How do you take the whole item apart to get the spring off and a new one on, if able?
Thank you!
As I was rebuilding the door inners, I decided to rust protect the paint inside the door, and then add sound deadening, and then I thought why not strip the paint off the exterior of the door and prep for new paint.
The existing red is a rattle can protection added a while ago.
Would love to do...
Happy Easter to you and your family and friends!
What can safely and quickly remove the paint from my hideaway headlight doors?
The paint existing is cracked and messy. They appear to be aluminum.
Thanks!!!
Please!
I took this off in a dash while disassembling my front bumper, Hideaway Headlight set, and headlight buckets and holders, and now I wonder what it could have been used for.
It looks like just a piece of stock that was rough cut and holes drilled into it.
Any ideas anyone else who has...
A friend says I should mask off everything, and then spray black. I could attempt to brush in the black lines. Any tips or expertise to lend???
Photo one, mine
Photo two, as it should and will look.
Thanks!
1971 Charger.
It came apart easy enough, and then house, work, family slipped in.
How do I get the spring in, and with tension to make it all work right?
Feel free to use the a-b-c-d callouts in the picture, and Thanks!!!
I cleaned up and painted the black one when I got the car and the boxes. The other one I took off the car (1971 Dodge Charger SE). I did a google search today for a ‘1971 Charger automatic trunk release latch’ and ‘71 B Body automatic trunk latch’ with no luck in seeing the same as the black...
Hello,
What’s the best place to buy a gull wing for a ‘71 Dodge Charger?
I’m watching one on eBay for $300, but see them elsewhere and with prices widely ranging.
Thanks for the information!
what paint is best for the little black line on the edges of the tail light lenses?
I tried SEM plastic paint that I sprayed inside a jar and applied with a brush, but it didn’t come out smooth or right.
Thanks!!!
