Hey guys: I recently bought another original 1972 Plymouth Valiant which purportedly was sold new here in the south, but obviously wasn't. There is a very old sticker centered on the rear bumper that has the Chrysler pentastar, then "Katy Road" and "Houston, TX' underneath that. Based on which...

That would be great. How about sending me a PM so we can set up the payment, etc? Thanks.

One showed up at the Lebanon TN show last year. Sherwood Green, 4-speed, white vinyl top with factory sunroof. Either an immaculate restoration or immaculate original. I didn't see pictures of it so far. I took pictures of it but hesitate to post someone else's car without their ok. Is the owner...

Hope you don't mind me using your picture. The area shown within the lines, outward to the wheel wells, rearward to where it is cut already. Thanks.

Hey everyone: My 1969 Dart sedan has an ancient dealer-promo window graphic in the rear window that I would like to have reproduced if possible because it is so neat. I am guessing this was some type of decal transfer. I didn't know that stuff existed back then and this is the only car I've...

Hey guys: I need to buy a chunk of good metal from someone. This is the portion of sheetmetal inside the trunk where the shock bolts are, as shown. I've never seen a car that had this damaged, but when a po swapped in an 8.25 into my SLANT SIX Swinger, they mangled that area on one side...

The sticker is the part number. There really isn't much else to learn since we know that all of them were cast-crank, hydraulic lifter 225 engines by then. I had a '68 also. What engine is your car coded for in the VIN? Check the 5th digit...if it's an A it originally had a 170 like my car did...

Thankful for the help but I wasn't satisfied with these answers, so I did my own research: Mopar apparently used a total of 3 different part numbers for ignition condensers- 1818757 used on early single-point engines and on later dual point applications. 2098058 used on single-point...

I have a highly technical question- I see condensers with a regular wire, and I see them with a large copper strap. Why? What are the differences(besides one has a wire and one has a strap)? My 2bbl 273 Dart still has the original installed at the factory in November 1968 and it's the...

Well, I thought I would contribute to this thread again since, in the intervening years I have bought and rebuilt many of these starters and used several for parts. I feel that I can condense a lot of the information that has already been posted in order to answer the original question in a way...

I've never seen that one before...if it's an original engine that hasn't been apart then it has a steel shim head gasket that could theoretically rot out and leak. Might want to brake clean it off and then carefully watch it while someone runs the engine about 2500 rpm. Watch the fan!

Great information. So it sounds like I need to find a used alternator testing machine, if one of those is capable of loading the alternator. Curious though....why wouldn't Chrysler build just one "50-amp" alternator instead of going to the trouble of building different units such as the 34 and...

So, has anyone noticed the funny business Mopar used with their alternator ratings? Oh, I know there were supposed to be different ratings available on paper in different years, but I spent some time looking through parts books recently and found some interesting stuff. Let me clarify that I'm...

I wish I could say I had a hose leak on a 426 Hemi, but nope, this was on my 1969 Dart with a 273. Sometime in the last couple of years while the car was getting put back together, I installed new reproduction fuel lines at the engine and new hose sections and a filter. This is the old-style...

I second that. Holley 1920 carbs have all the typical Holley problems with the metering block, the diaphragm-type accelerator pump that has a convenient leak hole to dump fuel on the manifold when it ruptures, a bowl gasket under fuel, a side-hung nitrophyl float...it's just a problem looking...

Good evening: Let's see if anyone knows or pretends to know the answer to a question I will include near the end of this post. First, some factual information- At least as far back as 1962 and lasting through most of the 1969 model year, Chrysler equipped vehicles that had automatic...

So i've been building a couple 4-door 67-69 sedans because I wanted practice before doing my Swinger and Scamp. Both needed windshields, so I ordered the first one from somebody that carried Precision gaskets, because they were CHEAP. Well here's a warning to those cooler than I who might...

Good. I suppose I can can start looking around for half-used tubes instead of full ones. I used 3/4 of a tube on the last one I did. Maybe I did it WRONG, but it didn't leak. Don't know about plenty at Napa. I bought the only tube left in a store within 250 miles. Memphis hub had one tube left...

I've been trying to locate this stuff everywhere I know to look and just everyone that carries it is either out or almost out. I ordered 2 from NPD and they emailed me and only had one. What gives? Is 3M withdrawing this from the market? If that's the case what is an acceptable, PROVEN...

Keep in mind that people have the ability to greatly improve their attitude and friendliness when it is to their benefit to do so($$$).

Even though you were somehow able to be a fly on the wall and know exactly how the visit went down, I'll take the time to transcribe how the interaction went down on my end: Younger Guy: "How's it going?" Me: "Hey guys, how are ya'll?" Younger Guy: "Good, what can I help you with?" Me: "Well...

I considered doing that, then I decided that they probably get so many window shoppers calling them that they for sure wouldn't give me the time of day. I wanted to see how they reacted to a cash-paying customer in front of them.

I thought I would share my experience visiting the Mopar Mecca that is about 30 minutes from my house. To preface, this isn't a hate post, i don't know the people and I don't sell parts to compete with them. To begin with, if you've never been to this place and you have a vision of nearly...

Hey guys: I am still looking for a good windshield for my '69 Dart 4-door sedan. Doesn't matter if it's tinted or not. A few chips are fine but NO fogging. I live on the border between Tennessee and Alabama and don't mind to drive to pick up or meet you. I do realize they are available...

Oops...I emptied it. Thanks for letting me know.

Hey guys: I need to obtain said part. I specifically need the front hub, but I will take the entire thing. However, I think shipping would be significantly less for just the hub if you don't mind to seperate. No spun races please. Must be 10", cannot use 9" parts. Thank you.

Imagine that. Thanks for the info!

Hey everyone: I'm going to have to find another hub for my '69 Dart. A previous owner(who else) apparently didn't understand the left-hand lug thing and removed the lugs and studs by force, ruining the wheel and stripping the splines out of the hub. My question is, are the hub assemblies...

Thanks a lot!

Hey guys: I'm putting together my latest cheap 4-door beater, this one a '69 Dart Custom with the wide side molding down the center. I scabbed on a quarter section to replace wreck damage. In the collision I assume the original piece of trim between the rear door and the end of the rear...
