    Testing a new part out for my convertible early A

    Lookin' MIGHTY good! I'll want some of those, even though my 64ragtop parts are OK for now. Probably will need replacements before its 100th anniversary, though!!:D BC

    Help Identify this part...

    Golly, those sure do look similar! TJhoward's look to be punched, and if he has MY luck, they're punched from unobtanium! I wonder if those manifold washers are the same size (or "close enough for government work". The manifold washers are often available on ebay, but if he's wanting...

    if power top fails to work

    There may have originally been differences in the manufacturers original pumps, but the all worked the same. I'm pretty sure all the replacement pumps available are the same now. BC

    Testing a new part out for my convertible early A

    I love seeing your "labors of love" projects, 66! And most of your stuff will work for my 64ragtop. Other stuff keeps getting in the way, but I'll be in touch on the kicks and the new trim part. BTW, I've seen supposed early A body glove boxes that ship flat. I guess they must fold into a...

    top switch bit the bullet

    Not to beat a dead horse here, but the key is STILL amperage capacity of the switch. I've been working with various switches for a long, long, LONG time and I have no idea what a "universal" switch is. You might find a switch that has a rating printed on it that was maybe built by folks who...

    top switch bit the bullet

    Google search for 50 amp spdt switch took me here: http://www.repairconnector.com/products/Momentary-On-Toggle-Switch-50-Amp-SPDT.html (of course you'll need a breaker inline) BC

    top switch bit the bullet

    Amperage is the key here, and I think you want at least a 20 amp rated switch. OR, you could put relays back by the top motor, run bigger wires for the motor and use the existing wires to trigger the relays. Then you could use a smaller rated switch in the dash and you would have a bigger...

    Convertible top wire spring guides

    I wanted to bring this up to the top because my 64ragtop has a tear like the one in post #5. Though my car is a '64, I wonder if the same thing has happened to it and if the wire spring fix would apply to my '64. Thanks! BC

    64ragtop window weatherstrip

    Just got my new weatherstrip set from Steele Rubber. Wish there were instructions! Not hard to figure which of the three different length pieces goes where (just match the length of the wstrip with each of the three side rail sections) But I'm GUESSING the longer side of the extrusion goes...

    Door Sill Plates

    It's been so long since I pulled the carpet out of my '64 Dart 'vert that I've forgotten if there were any sill plates to secure the outer edges of the carpet. I can't find any in my parts stash but then I can hardly find ANYTHING in there. I found some for '67 up darts in a restoration...

    3 Point Belts??

    Among the many things I don't know is how much force the 7/16" bolt would take and how much force would be applied in any given wreck. Depending on the many possibilities, it seems nearly impossible for someone without lots of schooling and test facilities to design and build "the best"...

    3 Point Belts??

    Thanks, DA69RT GT. I checked out that link, then the rest of the Wesco site. They had answers to all the three point belt questions I've thought of. A couple of phone calls and I'll be ready to order. I also found: http://www.seatbeltsolutions.com/index.html and...

    3 Point Belts??

    Of course, I hope to never find out if 3 point seatbelts are really more protective than the 2 point ones in my ragtop. For that matter, I hope to never test the 2 point belts I have! That said, I would like to retrofit 3 point belts into the 64ragtop. The difficulty I see is finding a...

    a sebring interior for my 66 dart

    Any further progress on this project?? I've got a set of 2000 Sebring front seats located, in black leather even, but as yet unseen. The integral seat belts appealed to me, and the fabrication to make the seat mounting rigid enough for the unthinkable didn't put me off. This part kinda has me...

    Trunk hinge sliders

    If that's the right name for the plastic parts on the trunk torsion bars that ride on the hinge for lubrication. How are these installed? Where do they fit on the t-bars? Is there a procedure to do the install? My '64 Dart FSM has one picture of them and no info. Any info is better than...

    Convertible Speaker locations

    Several good ideas on this site. http://www.soundmove.com/speakers_and_amps.htm I'll be using the kick panel speakers and Undercover IIs under the front seats. Probably won't do much for backseat riders, but I have few of those anyway. BC
