    Well that escalated quickly

    I kinda thought that too since it has the two bolt holes on the side but I don’t have a clear view to see the name stamped into the side. A pistol grip would be great too but the classic white ball would be more comfortable even though it’s not nearly as cool Appreciate the info so far...

    It’ll definitely work for the time being. My ideal shifter would be a hurst chrome stick with white ball that’s bent similarly. With that shifter base, I may be stuck with OE style handles I’m guessing? A hurst shifter with rods is expensive when ya can find them from what I’ve looked ya online

    Well that escalated quickly

    I also noticed the same on the handle knob.. at least the number on the linkage rod case can be seen. Looks like a C95664 which is a 64-70 side cover at least. I’ll have more info tomorrow. Could have just had the shifter swapped for that application. Uploading photos kinda dumbs down the...

    That’s another thing. There’s a few places online that sell a whole drum setup with drums, backing plates, fully assembled but the price is just about the same as putting rear disc unfortunately

    Well that escalated quickly

    I bought my 68 Dart GT a couple of months ago with plans to make it a nice small block 4spd street bruiser. It has a 318/904/7.25 in it. In the last couple of weeks I’ve done picked up an A-body 8 3/4 housing with small bolt axles, and today I scored a 4spd swap out of a 71 340 swinger.. the...

    Tune up advice, 68 Dart with later electronic ignition.

    1968 Dart 318 2 barrel.. I don’t know the history of the car but it was converted to the later model Chrysler electronic ignition at some point in its life. I was gonna do plugs, wires, cap, and rotor.. would I need to buy all that stuff for the later model electronic ignition stuff? Say like...

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    I do not, I’ll give them a look.. I do have a wiring schematic from classiccarwiring.comthe laminated schematic. It’s the indicator bulb. I don’t plan to keep it an automatic in the long term or even in the next year or so. Is there any harm to be done buy not having it ? I found a couple on...

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    The title has the year and model. After looking at it again.. it could be a lamp. My shift indicator needle is missing also. The wire going to it is in pretty rough shape and has a splice in it in addition to some spots where it’s been taped up because the wire is showing

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    In other news, my brake light problem has been resolved :thumbsup: It was the turn signal switch. If the only purpose of that cap is for the factory radio.. I’ll leave it out and put it all back together..

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    I replaced the turn signal switch today and forgot to put what looks like a capacitor back inside the column near the switch. Following the schematic, it goes to the radio and fuse box on the opposite end. The radio in the car currently isn’t working anyhow.. will I need to put it back in ?

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    Update.. well I think I have something … some shoddy wiring.. leads me to believe it needs a new headlight switch. I wasn’t getting power going into the turn signal switch for the driver side rear.. if I’m following the schematic right, headlight switch feeds it… pulled the plug on the headlight...

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    Also, after finding a few threads on here.. I’m gonna make sure my turn signal switch is sending power out.. if that ends up being the case, the signal cam is broken anyhow so, it’ll be a prime time to fix that as well… I’ll update later today with what I find.

    ‘68 Dart, One tail light not working.

    I think you’re correct.. explains why it was warm.. door was open and the dome light was on while I was trying to find this tail light problem

    904 questions

    68 Dart, 318 with a 904 trans..fire the car up and put it in D, you’ll take off fine and you’ll hear and feel an up shift, but not a second one. While on the highway doing 60mph, it doesn’t sound like it’s turning enough RPM to say be in second still. I don’t have a tach so I can’t verify what...

    Back after a couple of decades

    I decided to rock the stock 14 inch caps for now. I ordered some 215/70/14s for these wheels. Should perk it up a little more in the looks department. I wanna put some 15s but will wait a lil while

    Back after a couple of decades

    Brought it home finally yesterday. Got up this morning and took the cheesy chrome trim on a roll off the side. It left a ghost behind but I’m sure some compound would clean it up further .. also reattached the rear trim behind the driver rear .. and took the hitch off the back lol. In the words...

    Electric guitar...

    I’ve been playing since 1994-95. My current #1.. 2023 Gibson Les Paul Custom ‘68 Reissue.. I absolutely love it. Despite that, I’m considering selling it to fund my new to me 68 Dart GT adventure. I’ve owned guitars at all price points over the years and there’s a lot of great affordable guitars...

    US Mag Indy wheel question

    If I ran the Slot mag, I was gonna run a 225 width on the rear.. US Mag lists the backspace as 3.80 and Summit shows 3.75 but 4.0 or more would have been better. I’m sure they’ll fit but it’ll limit my tire choices Looks like the back order is to July on the Boyds. That would be a sweet wheel...

    US Mag Indy wheel question

    I do plan to run super stock rear springs which will give a little more clearance on the rear than factory height..

    US Mag Indy wheel question

    At least as of now.. the only wheel offered with the small bolt pattern is the 15x7 with 3.75 back spacing. Hmmm
