    Got her started! Replaced the coil, there was also a choke/ vacuum problem my neighbor discovered and helped fix. Thanks to everyone at FABO and FBBO for the help, plus I learned a thing or two!

    Yes, I do get a spark on the jumper wire, not the coil to distrib wire near a ground source. Is that correct?

    I assume this should be done with the 2 + coil wires disconnected, if so, first reading was .09 Volts, second one while cranking showed 0.0 V....Also as I mentioned, removing a spark plug and holding it against block produced no spark when cranking. Would this point to a defective coil, because...

    Distributor spins when cranking. Still no start with ignition on and shorting solenoid. Would you all agree that I can probably rule out: Starter solenoid, Ignition switch, Starter relay, Ballast resistor, Spark plugs, almost new. Plug wires, also almost new. One more test.....took out a...

    I thought it is supposed to blink on and off when cranking.

    Yes I have read every similar post I could find here and other sites and have performed most of the tests suggested and it still won't fire! Background info: Bought the car 10 days ago, it's a 1964 with stock Slant 6 motor, ran pretty good. Drove it 140 miles round trip last weekend to a car...

    You old school racers are going to love this...

    We did this kind of street racing in Richmond CA, it always began on McDonald Ave while cruising Saturday nights, when you found a willing competitor(s) we would then head out to the pretty much abandoned warehouse district near Point Richmond where the real racing would take...

    Going to Vegas next week

    Same here, our "gambling" budget is usually about one dollar each, we only go to Vegas to shop for things we cannot find in our town, which is only 90 easy miles away.

    Also, if you are there Sun, Mon or Tue night, the best Elvis plays from 8pm to 11pm at Fremont St Experience at one of the four stages there, its 3 blocks from your Hotel.

    Going to Vegas next week

    For an excellent prime rib dinner ($10.95) go to the El Cortez Hotel (down Fremont past the Heart Attack Grill) the restaurant is called Siegel's 1941. We go there all the time, the employees have been there for years and years, the service is great and the food is better and reasonable (for Vegas).

    Eclipse rip-off

    Couple of years ago my wife and I were driving through Death Valley going south on that very lonely and deserted road from Stovepipe Wells towards Trona, when we spotted 2 Navy jets flying VERY low towards us, they buzzed us at no more than 100 feet altitude, I could see the pilot's faces, we...

    1965 Dodge Coronet-info seeking

    I would not say those parts are very common, however, but they are out there. DVAP is a pretty good source for parts, also for new repop stuff Classic Industries has them and I am sure there are others. Most of the 65 body is a one year only design with some 66 parts interchangeable.
