1960 Dodge Dart Seneca Project

Today's chapter: Oiling the Tin Man

I could hear the car groan, "Ahhh, that's the spot! A little more to the right!", as I sprayed WD40 onto the hinges, and silicone around the dash's push buttons. The hood now pops up when the primary release is pulled. No more creaks from the hood or door hinges. The hood even lifts evenly now.

Door latches are working much more freely. I need to go into a couple doors and lube the mechanisms.

The accelerator pump on the Carter BBD was shot, so I rebuilt the carb yesterday. The kit was less than $20 and they had it on the shelf at Autozone. Can't beat that! Something is leaking pretty good under the car. Must either be a rear main, front pump seal on the tranny, or a leaking tranny line. The car is on dirt right now, and it just rained, so I haven't been able to get under there.
