    Interesting news from Virginia

    MSN I can *sort of* understand the thought process behind it, although I also see it as a foot in the door for more regulation and wider use than the original target group. People will most likely just find a way around it, just as habitual DUI offenders find ways around the "sniffer" installed...

    [Found!] Factory steel wheel

    Tried a while back with no luck, so I'll give it one more shot: Looking for a factory steelie, hopefully near S.E. Wisconsin. 14x4.5" rim size, big bolt circle 5x4.5. These were the base wheel on '73 and up Dusters, Darts, etc. The centers take the small diameter, later poverty caps. I...

    Silicone bypass hose

    Does anybody have a current source for the Mopar silicone bypass hoses, part #P487 6373, was used on the factory HD/cop motors. I just used up the last one in my stash, and I'd like to order a few more; but they seem to have gone the NS-1 route. I really don't want aftermarket ones- not really...

    Motor Wheel "Spyders"

    Does anybody make a modern equivalent of the old Motor Wheel "Spyder"? I've got a buddy who would like to run some, but in a more modern size so he can get a decent tire on it... Told him I'd ask here...

    TQ bowl vent

    I have the usual problem with the carb going dry after a few days (no leaks, all the usual culprits have been addressed), and while it doesn't bother me too much, it bugs the wife... and so I'm pondering ways to make it better. Yes, non-ethanol gas goes a long way to not having this issue, but...

    340 manifold heat shields now available at Mancini's!

    And they're not totally obscenely priced, either.

    If you didn't already know, some good news.

    Not much technical info in the article, but interesting nonetheless. MSN

    '66 Dart headlight buckets

    I'm reassembling my '66 Dart wagon after paint, I installed the grille and my newly acquired (used) headlight bezels when I ran into an issue on the driver's side fender- the bucket screws right in to the fender's factory holes, but the headlight is about a half inch off towards the side of the...

    3/8 lockstrip availability?

    Does anybody know of a supplier for 3/8" wide (chrome) lockstrip? The lockstrip in my '66 wagon rear quarter windows is crumbling and/or missing completely- luckily the seals themselves are in good shape, since they are unavailable anywhere. All the lockstrip I can find is closer to 9/16"...

    [Found!] Early A wagon tailgate plate

    I've got a toughie here. I need the guide/limiter plate that the torsion bar assist roller fits into, that bolts to the passenger side of the tailgate jamb- mine went missing during bodywork, and I need to get one on there so I can mount the tailgate and get the car into paint, and I can't hang...

    Bead lock strip clips

    Does anybody know where to source the little chrome clips that cover the end joint of the windshield seal lock strip? I used up my stash, and have a ton of lockstrip left but can't find the clips available by themselves- only included with more lockstrip. Hate to have to buy more lockstrip just...

    [WANTED] Steel wheel

    Looking for a single (but will take a pair if necessary) 14x4.5 (J) big bolt pattern stock factory steel wheel that takes the smaller diameter later model hubcap, preferably local to S.E. Wisconsin; since shipping something like this would most likely easily exceed it's value... I have a 14x4.5...

    [WANTED] Master cylinder rebuild kit

    Looking for a Raybestos MK697, Napa UP697, or some other equivalent; or info on where a kit is available. This is for a '73 and up 15/16" master. Seems to be out of stock everywhere. May be interested in a known good factory master, but shipping could be a concern. Not interested in the...

    Getting fed up...

    And I know I'm not the only one. This is a parts rant. Replacement parts have become such a hit-and-miss proposition, it seems like it's at less than 50/50 odds anymore. Every time I order parts (and it doesn't matter where the source is, O'Reiley, Napa, Rock- they all sell the same crap now)...

    Fuel Return

    I'm about to break out the BFH and start swingin' at things... '66 Dart wagon with a 360/904. Nothing wild, cruiser/road trip car. It's been on the road already, but I'm making a few changes in things because, well, I wanted to. Basic story: Pulled the tank (2 years old) to add a return line...

    Identifying my 904

    I've got a 904 family transmission I'll need to order parts for, but I'm trying to clarify what I've got first. PK number is 4028815. Stamping on the bellhousing pad is mostly illegible, but not a biggie. So far, so good. The trans. list on MyMopar lists this solely as a '78 360 application...

    If you can't build one, make it sound like you did.

    It's not exactly breaking news, but... MSN And we used to joke about the "Yugo GT" being an option that consisted of a V8 soundtrack on a cassette that you could play on your tape deck... Now Stellanus has made it a reality.

    New Book

    Just saw this, maybe it's not new and has been out there a while, I don't know. Anybody out there actually get this book? Impressions? Anything new, interesting or useful in it, or is it just a rehash of the same old stuff that we've already known for the last ten years? Especially...

    Trailer charge system

    First I'll explain my situation and thought process. I've got a camper, and a utility trailer; both with 12v deep cycle batteries and electrics. Solar charging is not always viable for various reasons, SO- I'm thinking along the lines of adding a secondary charging circuit to my tow vehicles (a...

    [SOLD] '66 Dart GT interior trim lot

    Time to start thinning out some stuff- tired of tripping over it and hauling it to swap meets. Lot of interior pieces that got stripped out of a '66 Dart GT bracket car. Perfect? No, but very useable- should clean up nicely. Must take it all. No shipping- oversize pieces would be a killer...
