    A friend of mine got in touch with me the other day. She has a friend that has terminal cancer and is looking to get rid of stuff. He has a 65 Valiant Signet, 273 AT, that looks pretty nice and he used to use it as a driver. He also has a 73 Javelin, which I know nothing about, other than it is...

    Were there any type of hood scoops for the 1965 Barracudas

    I dont think I've ever seen any type of factory hood scoop(s) on the 1964-1965 Barracudas, so I was just wondering if any type of factory scoops or different hoods were available for those years.

    Need 65 Barracuda info ** Updated **

    Hi everyone. I'm going to look at a 65 Barracuda in a few days, and I was hoping that a few early A-body experts can help me out. The car is supposed to be pretty original with 38k miles. I saw some pictures of the car and engine, and it looks pretty good. They used it last year to go to car...

    Valve body question

    I have a 68 Dart GTS with a highly modified 360. This thing is a monster. The auto transmission has a manual reverse valve body. The car was like this when I bought it and the guy that I bought it from used to race it. I dont race the car, and really only just take it to cruises, so I'm...

    Anyone know anything about flathead 6 engines?

    I just bought a 1948 Plymouth 2 door coupe with a flathead 6 in it. The motor smokes a little, and occasionally it has a loud knock when you hit the gas. Runs really good and has a lot of power. I dont know anything about these engines, so I was wondering if anyone has experience or an...

    Looking for reproduction bracket for console tach

    Well, I finally got a console tach for my 68 Dart, but now I need the bracket/pedestal that mounts it to the console. I saw someone selling reproductions on ebay a while back, but now I cant find them. Does anyone know who that might have been that was selling them?

    Whats a good price for a 74?

    Ran across a guy who has a 74 Dart Swinger. 95k miles. Slant 6. Completely original. Drove it home 600 miles from down south. What is a fair price for it? I'm thinking about buying it, but I'd like some opinions.

    Looking for a console tach for a 68 Dart

    I'm looking for a console tach for a 67-69 Mopar, specifically a Dart, but I believe they are all the same for all models for those 3 years. Please dont point me towards ebay or craigslist. I have a lot of e-body (mostly Challenger) parts if someone is interested in a trade.

    The kids are starting to get interested in the ancestry thing. Guess they want to find out a few things before the rest of us are gone. If there are any members on the board from Poland or Slovakia I'd enjoy talking with you a little.

    Need suggestions on vibration issue

    I posted this on FEBO, but there is not much participation there, so I decided to post it here as well. After all, a small block is a small block, regardless of what it is in. I have a 73 Challenger. Originally a 340 4-speed car. Original motor blew up and was replaced in 74 with a factory...

    Have a strange miss.

    I have a 73 Challenger 4-speed with a stock 360. Lately, it has developed a miss/backfire. It doesnt do anything when accelerating. And it doesnt do anything when backing off. But after I let off the gas to back off, and then just touch the gas to start accelerating again, it stumbles and...

    What's needed for power brakes?

    My 68 Dart has a dual master cylinder. Can I just add a booster to get power brakes, or is it more complicated than that? Even though the brake shoes are good, the car is just very hard to stop.

    Power steering questions - 68 Dart

    When I got my 68 Dart, the power steering pump had been removed. The steering box is still there, but the previous owner just connected the two ports with a hose, presumably to keep out dirt. I bought a power steering pump, but before I hook it up, I have some questions, mostly about steering...

    Did any vendors do well at Carlisle 2010?

    I was just wondering how vendors did this year. I was only there Friday, but didnt sell anything, even though I had most of my stuff marked much less than what others were asking for similar items that were in much worse shape. I didnt really see anyone carry out parts, other than sheet metal...

    Poll on vinyl top color.

    I'm going to have a vinyl top put back on my 68 Dart GTS. The original one was black, but the guy that is going to do it makes his own tops before he installs them, so he said that he could get me any color I want. My car is a burgundy color (original color), and he showed me some vinyl that is...

    Does anyone know who sells the clips for the vinyl top trim on a 68 Dart. I have the trim, but no clips. Just to clarify, the only trim that needs installed is the pieces that go below the rear window and then curve around to meed the side windows.

    I need the two small vinyl roof trim pieces that go at the top of the front pillars on a 68 Dart. Not sure what other years will fit. Will buy one or both pieces. Also, if anyone can tell me what other years/applications will fit, I would greatly appreciate it, just in case I run across some.

    What color were 68 dart parking lights?

    My parking lights have amber bulbs in them, but I keep thinking that my original GTS back in 68 had white bulbs. Anyone know which ones are correct?

    I think my tranny is toast.

    When I bought my 68 Dart, I never drove it except around the alley behind the guys house because it wasnt licensed. Seemed to work fine. Anyways, I've spent the last few months working on it, and decided to take it out on the road today. The engine is moderately built, and he told me it has a...

    Need help with emergency flasher switch.

    Previous owner of my 68 Dart installed a rocker switch for the electric fuel pump in the hole where the e-flasher switch goes. I found what I believe to be the e-switch, in a can of parts. I am hoping that he just disconnected the e-switch and left the wires up inside the dash. Which wires am...

    Need fender splash shields for a 68 Dart

    I need the fender splash shields for a 68 Dart. At least thats what I think you call them. They go at the back of the fender/wheel well. When I open my door, I can look right down onto my tire. I need those pieces that stop you from seeing the tire.
