I love the 4 door! I also love the fact that you have your son involved. That’s how my love for these old A bodies started back in the 80’s. Great to see the car and the next generation involved! Keep up the great work and keep that young man involved. That’s what is going to carry on our...

My 64 Dart the two cables follow the same path as the speedo cable. The front most cable is the push button cable and routes out of the firewall, jumps over the exhaust and enters the front of the transmission. The rear most cable is for the parking pawl. It follows the speedo cable from the...

Blue visors are sold.

I have two pairs of visors. The black ones are uncovered and have been modified by the previous owner of my car. He glued a thin hard plastic over the original cardboard. They are out of my 1964 Dart. The blue ones may be for a later model Mopar? They are a bit larger than the early A visors...

I have an unused set of front door seals for 1962-1966 A & B Body 4 door sedans. I am guessing they would fit the front doors of a wagon as well since it is a 4 door. They are black in color. They were ordered from RockAuto and are made by metro. These are currently $118.99 at Rockauto.com. I...

Some of the bolts that hold the tail shaft to the gear box portion of the trans have the potential to leak. They use a special washer that is coated with a black sealer. I used the special washers and mine still leaked. So after my trans was in my car, I backed off each bolt, one at a time, and...

Just wanted to throw out there that 1964 was the change over year for the trans filter on my Dart. It came from the factory with a metal screen and an in cooler line filter. I have since changed the pan and the filter. If this is an early 904 the pan will be too shallow to use the fabric covered...

Rusty, I am picturing in my head a unit that bolts to the trans in place of the speedo cable. It stays in the trans full time and a cable or electronic sensing unit screws into it. I remember seeing a unit like that from an aftermarket vendor, and I think it was for early A’s. I also remember...

Something to know about the kits... they will come with the maximum number of disks necessary for a particular year range. So the kit may come with 8 discs but your application may only use 6. After your clutch packs are apart, you measure to see if you have room to add another clutch disc...

I think doing it yourself is great. You end up knowing everything that was done because you did it yourself. I did my 904 on a folding table in my basement garage. It isn't hard at all, especially if you follow the step by step instructions in the FSM. The FSM will tell you what to do and in...

I believe they are 1996? through the end of the Sebring convertible production in the early 2000’s? They all had the 3 point seatbelts integrated.

I have seen a number of early a body guys using Chrysler Sebring convertible seats. They can be had for cheap from junk yards. Most of the people that did this hooked up the module that is part of the seat. This allows the driver seat to be power. This seat is also a high back bucket that offers...

If the panels currently in the car are in good shape and don’t look terrible, have you considered vinyl/fabric spray paint. The stuff works really well as long as you follow the directions. I used it on some spots on my interior and it is holding up well. Otherwise I think the only other option...
