Ok here’s the deal. Among the many little things that challenge me every step of the way in the continual, and what appears to me, to be a life long restoration of my car, is now I seem to have lost whatever clip or retainer that is used to accept the bolt that attaches the emergency brake pedal...

Just wonder if there are panels or something that protect the engine compartment from dirt and stuff. I know about hood to radiator seal and hood to cowl. Just not sure how much those do for that and if there is something also that helps

Anyone have pics of the install of the gas tank pad? Just want to get placement correct. Pretty sure I can manage, but would like to see what others have done!

Has anyone swapped out their split bench front seat for something more modern that isn’t buckets, but bench style seating? I know they fold forward toward the center so not sure if there are aftermarket options available that fold in the same fashion. Interested to hear! Thanks all!

My GTX had been to the body shop and has all new metal and paint that looks amazing! Problem is, now they can’t find anyone to stand behind their work installing the new rear window gasket and and glass because “they’re known to leak”??? Is this really a thing?? Anybody else ever come upon this...

Can I use automatic transmission fluid to protect the timing chain or other delicate parts like the rockers after cleaning in a parts washer?

i recently discovered green jello on my valve train and rockers and all over the valve covers. Although upon checking the dipstick, there was no evidence of the milk chocolatey horror of coolant in my oil. My first instinct was to think this was a blown head gasket, but compression was good on...

My exhaust leak from my cracked pipe was getting really bad and I can't to get to a shop this week. This, and the fact that I don't have welding abilities yet has forced my hand into McDoogling in the worst way, my exhaust leak. I had to use aluminum cans, aluminum duct tape, and "Jose" clamps...

If anyone has read or follows any of my postings you will now that I've usually got many irons in the fire when it come to working on my car. Steering gear, speedometer, timing, tranny lines, etc... Well, this weekend saw my power steering pump reinstalled, the speedo housing gasket replaced...

When I first laid eyes on my Belve 12 yrs ago at gas station in Santa Ana it was dumped! I mean it's *** was sagging low-rider style! It had been put on wooden blocks somehow to compress the springs or some loco ****..anyway I got those removed and purchased new leaf springs eventually which I...

Hello my greasy chums, I have another pointer for those who find themselves a little light in the wallet and a little heavy on the DIY attitude. I present to you a site in which you can create your very own timing tape AND degree wheel in Imperial formatting. Simply measure your balancer and...

Even though I'm a bona fide, certified *** man, I have paid little attention to what is going on in my girls 8.75 rear end. I'm running the edelbrock rpm top end with the heads and cam and a 750cfm perched atop an air gap intake. All good yeah? But I just read that the cam likes a 3000 stall...

Greetings all! Mr. Belvedere here again to poll the Mopar folks on something I've been doing for awhile and wonder if I'm the only one doing this... I have two MSD red distributor caps that I have been swapping on and off my car. As one gunks up and builds up that crusty grey deposit on the...

Mr belvedere here again to share one of my little proud moments. Some time ago I installed a aftermarket Alpine stereo and in doing so also removed my wobbly old antenna and replaced it with a dash mounted antenna that literally is just a little 2.5" black rectangle that now serves as my am fm...

So here I am again with another problem that has beleaguered me since my tranny swap. The transmission was like the only thing I had a shop install for me, and even then I had to adjust kickdown and all that good stuff on my own. So one of the things I noticed straight away was that my...

So i have a 360ci motor with a timing chain cover that has the timing marks embossed on the driver side of the casting. I have a cast iron water pump with the outlet side on the driver side as well, very conveniently covering up any view of my damper and timing marks. I honestly don't think my...
