Has anyone dealth with this loan company to know whether they are reputable and fair in their prices? Was carried to it via a link on the Hagerty site. Was considering applying through them to see if we could get pre-approved for financing on an older car, since regular banks won't touch...

This was just a curiosity really. While our A Bodies are staying in a relatively reasonable price range, seems like the more famous Mopar muscle has inflated to ridiculous prices. Chargers and Roadrunners are on the higher end, at least to me it seems. Comparable in price to the more sought...

I was attempting to sell a vehicle via a local paper and someone text my number saying that they were interested in buying it for their father, but that they didn't live in the same area. They suggested paying for it via paypal and then having a shipping company pick it up once payment had been...

I've been looking around and had heard TCP global offered a petty blue type paint. I want that nice, light, electric blue color, but the one I found on their website is a pretty dull shade of blue. A lot darker than what I thought was supposed to match the mopar basin street blue. Or maybe...

So, I moved to a new neighborhood, and what do I do? Drive around and leave notes on mailboxes to ask people about the old cars they have in their yards. Is it weird? Yes. Yes it is. But sometimes it works! There's a guy just up the road from me who has a 76-77 AMC Gremlin. It's a little...

Has anyone in here ever attempted switching a small block mopar engine into an AMC? Specifically, a Gremlin? Just curious how much work fabrication is involved. I've been told all you need is engine mounts. I know that this /technically/ isn't what this forum is for, but I figured that this...

The headlights on my 74 duster have suddenly quit. High and low beams. All my other lights work. What would you check first and also what is this part? http://db.tt/Wth0INBS We pulled it thinking it was a headlight relay but the parts house doesn't list a valiant as even having a headlight...

http://jackson.craigslist.org/cto/3484183940.html I'm moving into a new house and am not going to have very much time to work on my project anymore. I am going to stick around the community. I love you guys ^^ best car community I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, bar none. I think I would...

This is something I've noticed over the years and have never understood. I was reminded of it this morning as I was doing a quick search for my father on what all would be involved in converting his 70 Lemans into a clone of the GTO like he had when he was younger. Why is it some people become...

National Novel Writing Month begins (for me) in about 20 minutes. Anyone else participating?

Hey, guys. Yes, I know I ask a lot of random questions in a lot of different forums. I hope you all don't mind. I'm just trying to accrue as much information as possible before I make the decision on what to do with the engine in my car. The option that' at least for now, is starting to look...

I know that, technically, this forum is about putting new hemi engines into old mopar a-bodies. But new Hemi engines are expensive. My current duster has a 225 /6 in it. And currently, I'm at a cross-roads. I'm about to pull that engine out, and at that point, there's plenty of options on what I...

I'm looking at just starting over with the electronics in my duster. They're just terrible, and I'm tired of trying to patch this dumbass's work. So, I was looking for a some decent, cheap wiring harnesses, but the sponsored link on the side doesn't seem to be working for me anymore. Anyone...

My car has been leaking through the seal around the windshield wiper, and I just wanted to make sure that this...

So. I thought I had finally tracked me down a nice mirror for my 74 duster... http://www.ebay.com/itm/261088441674?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Bought it. Came in yesterday. Beautiful! Chrome is perfect. Then I was looking at it today... It's for the right side. /Only/...

Yes, I know, I'm letting my inexperience show again, but I have some questions about functional hood scoops (Because I like how they look, and I refuse to just have one sitting there, being lazy). #1: How much extra is needed to make a hood scoop functional? I have googled and searched and...

For those who were curious before when I posted asking about wrangler rims... They will not fit on a 74 Dart without spacers. Backspace on them is 5.5, where the stocks on mine were 3.5. They rub on the control arm on the front (and would probably rub on the brakes as well, if the arm wasn't...

I don't see a topic open for CtC. Was curious: are any of the other FABO members going to be around? EDIT: Now with 100% more link. http://www.cruisinthecoast.com/

Was toying with the idea of getting a CB for the Duster, if I can talk the rest of the family into installing them in their vehicles as well. Typically, on multiple-vehicle road trips, we take hand radios. But you have to keep them charged and the range and sound is crappy. Was thinking about...

I just got a front bench seat roughly priced at 400 to be recovered. Does that seem to be pretty close to a good price? Or should I shop around for cheaper? Also, on seat covers, does anyone know a good place to get a nice, form fitting cover for a 74 bench seat? I don't want just a loose bag...

So. I bought freon yesterday to try to get my AC up and running in my car. Then, I snapped out of my dream world and realized "Oh. This car is still set up for R12." So, since I am not paying that much dang money to charge my AC, what all does it take to convert over to the 134? I've done some...

I was curious (being the newbie that I am) what all years that this was available on/would fit on? Also, if there was anyone who made them aftermarket for years that missed out on the love. I've seen Dusters both younger and older than mine sporting them, but never a 74 with one. Just curious...

I've watched a few videos about the spray on plastic/cloth/vinyl dye, and was curious how well it worked. Will it look like an actual interior color? Or will it look like I spray-painted the inside of my car? Will it rub off with time? Leave smudges on skin and clothes? Fade? All important...

Selling the metal trim that goes around the roof of a 74 (maybe more?) Plymouth Duster and outlines the vinyl top. I have all the screws and such. In good condition. It'd be shipping from Clinton, Mississippi. I'm asking $100 + shipping. Shoot me a PM and we can discuss shipping methods and...

So, still trudging through this budget restoration of my 74 Gold Duster, and I think I've cut costs enough that I can go ahead and start considering replacements for the stock tires and rims on the vehicle, which are, frankly, pretty sad looking. But, being the penny-pincher that I am, I am...

This is my first project in restoring a car. Except for that time when I was young and bought that 77 Midget. I've been getting a lot of help from my Father. And by alot of help, I mean I just hand him the tools he needs and try to glean as much information as I can. My younger brother's been...

I have a 74 Gold Duster that we're recreating, and it's getting near time to be working on paint. However. It has the typical gold duster stripes, and we would like the regular ole duster stripes. Is there a secret trick to removing these? Other than just sanding/peeling? Is there any...

Hello, all. I have a 74 Gold Duster that I've been working on, but I don't really have the intention of keeping it that way. The paint scheme is acceptable, but the wife and I have found compromise in another color scheme. The thing is though, I was under the impression that Gold Dusters were...

I need the plastic A pillar covers, along with the plastic pieces to the tops of the door panels, and the plastic trim around the ceiling for a gold interior, 74 duster.

I know this is a newb question that will likely be met only with "google" as a response, but I have honestly looked through google, and multiple car parts shops from a mopar magazine I have, and still, I cannot find these pieces. I'm not even sure what they're called to search for them. I have...
