I ran across these new taillight lenses on ebay motors for less than $80 delivered https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2499334.m570.l1313&_nkw=1970+Dodge+Dart&_sacat=6028

OP: re the first photo in your first post. Every rallye wheel produced by Chrysler has this inner and outer ring mounting arrangement. Its been working fine since 1970...

no check valve. You seem to have a vent system that is older than your car. up through 1970 the vent was simple and ended inside the rear frame rail. it is actually design not to vent anything out of the tank, but rather let air into the tank to balance the fuel being pumped out. 1970 CA cars...

OP - how many rods in your kickdown system? The thing that really has me puzzled is that everyone is giving you solutions to make sure that the lever on the trans is all the way back at WOT, but you are already achieving that, right? I agree with you - the issue isn't in the linkage. If the...

OP - I hear your issue, I just approached the spare need in a different way. 245-60-14 in back and 205-70-14s in the front. The tires are the almost same height due to difference in profile. This also makes the fronts and backs look the same when viewed from the side of the car. Then I found...

Thanks for all your work on this, Hawk! If you need help with anything please post a request here. I can't believe that after all these years they have moved the locations of the various cars around! Did they send you a list of classes with numbers for location?
