I bought the front/rear suspension out of a low mile 69 Barracuda and swapped it all into my 62 Valiant. The front suspension had been converted to Scarebird disc, from what I'm told too pricey/not worth it. Came with a dual master, proportioning valve, shocks, everything. I had to run new lines...

On the farm. The wagon is a manual on the column.

Is it leaking? If it ain't broke. I have a few pre-65 rears, nothing wrong with them. Definitely needed a hub puller to swap to 65 drums, now the drum and hub are separate and can pull the drums off same as 65 and up. I pulled the axles from one by removing the backing plates, putting the hub...

I recall when my reverse lights would not come on I would have to turn my wiper switch on and off until the wipers would come on and finally the reverse lights. I have since powered the reverse lights another way, and now both work without issues. Strange set up, imo

I completely agree, and also completely disagree. I have spray guns and multiple compressors, and I've prepped and painted a few cars. The painting is the easy part, prepping takes weeks/months. The guy who took all the trim off, not the po, took a DA sander and destroyed the finish, gouging...

The plan is to dive into this car within the next few months. Someone posted a comment on the youtube that it reminded them of a 50s nascar. I was surprised when I realized, over time, this comment has sunk deep into my brain. Found 2 pics today of what I believe is a 57 D-501, hardtop no...

I watched that video, it's beyond insane.

At this point, I can't tell if my old rotors are the machined type or the same as the new C-Tek rotors. I'll have to compare them to my old old rotors. If I am running the machined rotors now, and those are the rotors I took a grinder to, it was fairly easy and there is no negative impacts...

I bought a few a year or two ago.

Another pic. I recall cleaning up the entire hat because it either rubbed a seal slightly in a spot or two, and/or that's how my brain works and I went overboard, thought any rustacles that develop in the future could/would rub my new seals, or at some point in the pad wear it may, might, could...

Before/After. It's not even the visible ridge that is the issue, it's right above that. If left alone, as the rotor hat is tapered, it only rubs the caliper seals when the pads are worn down.

I just hit it with a grinder to take off the excess casting that rubs the caliper piston seals. It was such a small amount, took all of a minute, no negative impacts.

Just a thought, are the gearshift levers worn? If the squared off part of the lever is no longer square, the shift arm will turn on the lever before moving the fork. My trans would run through the gears fine when the engine was not running, but not shift into 3rd. Basically, it was still in...

Homemade.

On the 62 Lancer? No idea. He never drove it, someone brought it to him to junk and he just kept it with all the rest, knowing it was unique way back then.

Did cop wheels come in both 15x6 and 15x7?

I hear you loud and clear. Sold my pig rusty computer controlled multiple module $200 just to diagnose garbage 2008 full size truck to get away from all the bs. Lucky for me, my 64 wagon, my daily driver now, came with a 2.76 Sure-Grip and a 318 poly 2 barrel. Fantastic on gas, great cruiser...

FYI: pre 64 open centers are not a direct swap into anything other than pre 64 open.

The rear stick on bumper step off my old 2004 Subaru Forester is a perfect fit, contour and all. I used to throw it on there when I parked it outside.

Hurst replacement for 67 a-body bench seat, did not come from the factory in any year. Iirc, replacement for 64-67 Inland bench. In the car when I got it, shorty, black face ball is slightly larger than full white ball, best Hurst I've ever had.

I did this on my wagon years ago: New 10 gauge wire with fuseable link from alternator to starter relay + post. Took black wire off alternator, shortened it, connected it to + on starter relay. Removed it from the ammeter and dead ended it. Black wire has splice in harness that feeds dash...

H4s on one car, excellent. Sylvania somethings, terrible. Wagners on another, awesome - but here's the catch, I put a ground hub next to the battery, pigtail from the neg battery cable to the hub. Ditched the headlight grounds to the body, ran new wire to the hub, they're effing bright as heck...

I used these, 2 of the first, one for the pump, one for the carb. Hose is rated for heat, ran it up over the valve cover. Info/idea came from slantsixdan Attached a terrible pic, but you can barely see the line coming off the carb, barely touches the valve cover, filter is mounted on passenger...

Mine has the passenger side oval slot, did not come with defrost. I've seen multiple similar fastbacks.

I need the part #s off the squared off U bolts in the black package and the bumpers please. Want to put my traction bars, which are the very similar to the ones hanging at the bottom, back on my 67 Barracuda.

Brush on Eastwood rust encapsulator plus, then spray satin Rustoleum paint and primer in one. Done it for years with no issues. Eastwood stuff goes a long way, and can be applied over paint, bare metal, and rust.

Bluetooth receiver, no cd, mounted under dash, boat antenna mounted behind dash, it's just a wire, homemade kickpanel speakers made from drywall containers, old home stereo speaker boxes in back modified for 6x9, fastback. No amps, loud and clear. Speakers in trunk divider opens then up for...

I think it's worth saving. I said it before, my Dart was just as bad or worse. It's stuck in my brain still.
