Anybody ever put a Catilic Converter on their old Mopars? Wondering if it would get rid of the nasty old car exaust smell. Wondering how much performance you would lose. I come across used catilic converters all the time when I strip my destruction derby cars, usuasilly I just recycle them but...

I need some trim fasteners to attach my side trim to my dart. I need the type that has the barrel that pushes into the hole on the side of the panel and the the clip that attaches the trim pushes in and is a friction/press type fit. All I can find are the type that have a nut from the backside...

Anybody know if a spacesaver donught rim was made to fit a small bolt and big bolt pattern? I have Small bolt in the front and big bolt in the rear. I would like to carry only one spare. Its not likely I will switch to big bolt in the front becouse I already have disk brakes up front. I may...

I have a 318 that I have put an Eddy 4bbl carb and intake on. I finnally got the correct throttle cable bracket and now the gas pedal works again but I obiously need a different kickdown linkage and maybe a different curved arm that attaches to the cable bracket and pivots, (the pictures of the...

Would it be cost effective to have the gears changed out in my 8 1/4 thats currently under my Dart? Some years ago after I blew up my second 7 1/4 I put an 8 1/4 in. It got me BBP rear wheels and the fun of carrying two spare tires. Only dilema was the gears are 245 :sleepy5: At the time it was...

What is this piece of trim / felt called and where can I get it? Obiously it is in sad shape. I have seen "catwiskers" but thats for the bottom of the window. This piece goes vertically on the rear roll up side glass.

I have a 318 in a 70 Dart Swinger that I have freshened up and added an Eddy Intake and 650 Carb. Would like to keep the "stock" look so I want to re-use my stock air cleaner. Obious problem is that the original air cleaner is for a small carter 2 barrell. Was thinking about cutting out the...

Anybody ever have trouble sealing an Edelbrock Performer Intake? I used the Fel-Pro gaskets that came in my full gasket set minus the cork end gaskets account the directions say to use a thick bead of RTV on the ends instead of the cork gaskets as well as removing the locating pins. I did this...

Motor is a 318 in a 70 dart, points type distributer. Overhauled motor and got it all back together. Starter relay was bad replaced it. Dist was 180 off, pulled it out and rotated it 180. Started with fuel poured down carb, no fuel preasure, replaced fuel pump. Car started and ran for about 5...

Just wired the starter and battery with new cables. The post on the solenoid that the wires connect too is loose inside but tightnens up after you put the wires on with a nut to hold them on. Also The solenoid is loose where it bolts to the body so if this is where the solenoid gets its ground...

Just wondering what is the purpose of the "trap door" that is inside the passenger side manifold on my 70 dart. It is connected to a round metal wheel on the outside that rotates when the door is opened I assume by exaust forcing it open. What purpose did this serve and how restrictive is it? Am...

Just finnished overhauling my motor and need to connect the Eddy 650 carb to the throttle. I am shure some others have done this before and i am looking for what your solution was. Is there a kit with adapters that can be bought or do you have to change out the throttle cable? I did order a...

Im in the paint and body stage with my Dart right now. I have the motor out and the engine bay paint is done. I would like to get the engine back in asap. My plan is to freshen up the 318 and get it back to driveable for the smmer so I can at least enjoy the new paint and interior, then pull it...

I am ready to shoot my trunk and door frames, and soon the engine bay too (just have to pull the motor). Is it better to shoot these areas in single stage? I am planning on base/clear for the exterior but was looking to save a bit of $$$ by using single stage in these areas. Also wondering if...

Kind of new around here but not new to Mopars. I bought this 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger in 1996 for $400. It needed a few things like a battery and starter, points and a spare tire but I drove it 75 miles home without any problems. Over the years it needed just about everything and keeping this car...

My car was repainted about 14 years ago. It was a waterbase base / clearcoat over the original paint. They obiously scuffed it up and used primer, however about 5 years ago I was hit in the drivers side quater and pretty much quit washing waxing driving caring for this car. The clear coat...

I need to hook up all the black rubber vacuums lines to the back of the control unit on my 70 dart swinger. It has AC and I hav installed a new vaccume switch, just need a picture or a diagram of where the lines go. I hooked them all up in no apparent order and I have defrost when you push max AC.

Just ran across a 69 belverdere wagon in the wrecking yard with an 8 3/4 in it. I know a Belverdere is a B body so my question is will the 8 3/4 from a 69 belverdere wagon fit in an A body without modification. If narrowing is in order pulling this one will be a waste of time as I already have 2...

I broke all of the pins off on the drivers side circuit board while pulling my instrument cluster on my 1970 Dart Swinger. This seems like a common problem as this is a poor design at best. Fourtunately you can get aftermarket boards (at about $100 each), or used somewhat cheaper. I opted to fix...

I bought a replacement cable last week from Kragen and the one that they gave me is the same on the instrument cluster end but does not match the transmission end. My original cable has a large nut on the end that threads into the transmission. The replacement has a smaller round "hand thread"...

Trying to remove the guage cluster from my 70 dart swinger. It is the non rallye type, 0-120 mph, etc. Have all the screws on the front removed and can get it almost all the way out by tilting the top forward but the bottom of the cluster in the back will not clear the metal dash frame on the...
