    1970 340 Swinger console?

    My 73 340 Dart Sport came from the factory with a floor shifter and console. If you wanted to add it yourself and buy the separate parts from the dealer, I'm sure a dealer would sell you the parts, but there's a lot to it. There's removing the column shifter and replacing the collars, and...

    Demon seat tracks

    Those look like F body or later B Body tracks. Saw a set like that on a late 70's Fury. One is real shallow because it goes over a stamped recess for the catalytic converter. 75 - 75 a body tracks have one short one like that for the same reason. The pics in the previous post look correct for...

    can/has it been done?? home made headliner...

    It's a great big piece of special paper/cardboard/ etc. laminated or painted to give it a texture and then die cut on a really big clicker press. It's also got to bend and curve to fit the contour of the roof and to meet up with the creased edges. Unless you're seriously into origami and have...

    70 340 Swinger Dash and Column paint

    Maybe, depends on the year. What color and year is the rest of the interior? Most FSMs will have the paint codes in the refinishing section.

    4 speed steering column collar - pretty good piece

    FYI - On original factory pieces - the bottom collar, the one that twists, on the 70 and up castings, are ALL slightly warped, right from the factory. The original ones I sell are all like that, regardless of the year. Not sure on the 69 and back ones. I think the warpage is intentional, or not...

    How to straight Speedometer cluster in 1972 Dodge Demon?

    BTW, look hard enough on some of these sites and you can download a free pdf file for a factory service manual for a 71 Demon.

    How to straight Speedometer cluster in 1972 Dodge Demon?

    The cluster needs to come out. Don't even bother trying to do it in the car - not enough room. By the time you unhook everything to get it far enough to work on it'll be out. Uunhook the battery, drop the column down, remove bezel screws, disconnect speedo cable, headlight switch, circuit board...

    Duster Bucket Seats & Console

    70-72 has a plastic seat back. 73 and up does not. I recommend looking at upholstery sites like Legendary and see if the part #'s for the foams they sell are the same or different year to year.

    a-body floor pans

    As far as floor mats, not enough differences that it should matter. There are some slight differences in floor pans, mostly between Duster/Demon and Swinger/Valiant back where they join the shoulder where the back bottom seat cushion sits on it but it's not significant. I cut the floor out of a...

    has anyone ordered Carpet online?

    Lots of places re-sell Auto Custom Carpet stuff (acc). So long as you're sure that's what you're buying you'll be in good shape. I've used their stuff for over 20 years and no complaints - fits like factory, looks like factory.

    basic am radio in '70 Duster

    There's a pulley system and a sort of string that moves the whole mechanism inside. Pull the cover off the radio and you'll see it. Most often there's parts inside that are sticking due to dust, dirt, etc. I use brake cleaner to clean the moving parts. And I use a little tuner / electrical...

    Steering column collar problem....HELP!

    The bearing should be held in place by nothing but the c clip. If you have that off it should come out with the top collar, then pop it out from the backside of the collar. There's a rubber sleeve around the outside of it, and, believe it or not, a metal staple (?!?) in the rubber that helps to...

    Steering column collar problem....HELP!

    70 and up should use the same bearing. By the way, I have taken apart literally dozens of those columns and collars, bone yard units too, and never once needed a puller. As long as the snap ring and 3 screws are undone, and the turn signal stuff is out of the way it should come apart. If it's...

    Help!!!!! How To Separate Buckets Seat Tracks

    I did a set from a B body that way. Drill out one of the rivets to disassemble. Be very careful not to damage the nylon cage that captures the rollers as they are not available anywhere unless you cannibalize another track. Then use a small bolt and nut to replace the rivet. The rivets not only...

    Bench to bucket conversion, need help please

    I think the seat braces they are referring to are the reinforcing plates welded to the floor. They are nothing but 1/8" flat stock around 4 x 4 with a hole thru them for the seat mounting stud. Those factory dimples work if you are using a stock A body seat with stock seat tracks, but if you...

    Dash interchange

    Just remember that the dash frame is stamped to accept a particular type of speedo bezel and related trim. Rally dash, Dart dash, standard duster dash are all different. Then there are differences with or without holes for plastic wood grain trim, variations for mounting the radio, 69 and back...

    Seat track repops

    75 and 76 a body floors have a hump for the catalytic converter, so the inboard seat mount on the drivers side is much shorter. Also, 71 b bodies have a similar arrangement as the floor pans are higher towards the tunnel than the edges. The mount spacing is a little different, and they are on...

    71/72 Bucket Seats

    I'm not so sure they are the same from 70-76...in 73 they went to a different style where the backs of the buckets no longer had plastic backs but where the seat upholstery completely covered the backs. I am also not sure on the seat foams as well. I looked on the legendary site as I was going...
