Looking to install a radio into my 1967 Dodge Dart 270. New repro faceplate doesn't work with my original radio - the repro has thumb wheels instead of knobs for dials. So I'd like to buy a radio that will fit my 67 dash that has such thumb wheels. Working or non-working, though I'd prefer the...

Kind of a weird question. Working with a 1967 Dodge Dart 270 4-door sedan. I need new rubber parts for the window channels on my doors. I don't need new cat whiskers. Rather, I need the parts that seal the door glass when the window is rolled up. However, I don't know the proper name for that...

1967 Dodge Dart 270 here, non-AC. Rebuilding my heater box. I got the original Leece Neville blower motor put back together and spinning, which was no small victory for me. Just as I was fixin' to put the fan on, the end of one of the bolts snapped. "Well, (*^%*&^%$*!" I thought to myself, "I...

1967 Dodge Dart 270. Doing a total restoration with safety upgrades. We're a LOOONG way off from reinstalling the seats, but I'm trying to plan ahead. Safety is, first and foremost, my concern with any upgrades. I'd like to make this car my daily driver if it's safe enough. Is the original...

1967 Dodge Dart 270 w/o A/C - in the process of restoring the heater box with a kit from DMT and an aluminum core (the old core barfed many years before I got the car, as was evidenced by the rust through the spot where the floor meets the firewall on the passenger side). The blower motor works...

Attached is a detail photo for part of the RH taillight housing for my 1967 Dodge Dart 270. The chromed part that was exposed to weather for many years looks like this all the way around (as well as on the LH housing). I would like them to look nice, shiny, and new. 1. Can I save this? (I...

My last two threads were monumental failures on my end, so here's hoping I get this one right the first time. Welcome to the inside of my fuel gauge. Before disassembling my 1967 Dodge Dart 270, this gauge would work ... intermittently. Sometimes it would read with reasonable accuracy; at other...

I just installed the 10.95" "Stage 1" front disc upgrade for my 1967 Dodge Dart 270. When the time comes for new brake pads, what vehicle do I buy them for? I can't seem to locate this information and any guidance is appreciated!

I'd like to hear your recommendations for wheels and tires for my 1967 Dodge Dart 270. I am mostly interested in sizes, but would also welcome recommended manufacturers. Thank you, ahead of time, for your patience. If I don't provide the proper info to get an accurate answer, please ask...

Thanks - ahead of time - for your patience. I just bought the Doctor Diff front disc brake conversion for my 1967 Dodge Dart 270. The front brakes had been 9" drums. I purchased the upper control arm ball joint adapters as a part of the package. Here's the stupid question (drumroll please!) -...

One more stupid question - again, a 67 Dart 270 with a .96 power steering pump. All went (suspiciously) smooth while rebuilding my power steering pump. HOWEVER, while pressing the front insert back into place, one of the snap rings on the flow control valve disappeared. I assume that it broke...

Two quick questions; I have a couple of small bits that I need to buy. Any help is appreciated. Working with a '67 Dart 270. I have a parts manual, but I can't find the information I need. 1. What is the size and thread of the nut that attaches the struts to the lower control arms? I remember...

The Dart has struck again! My 1967 Dodge Dart 270, that is. I'm installing new leaf springs from ESPO. The forward mount (which holds the pivot bolt) on both sides of the vehicle had a weld stud snap on me. An either/or dilemma now faces me. Either (a) it is safe enough to drill out the stud...

I'm "stuck" waiting on parts in my rebuild of my 67 Dodge Dart 270, so I thought I'd clean and check the seals on my power steering pump. I've got the FSM, and it is not helpful as far as identifying the kind of pump I have. A few pictures of the pump is question are here: The only marking on...

I'm looking to update my '67 Dart 270 to disc brakes, and I want to do it responsibly. The idler arm currently on the car can't handle (safely) the upgrade. I'm wanting to buy a K-member from a '73-'76 A-body with a slant-6 engine. I don't want the engine, just the K-member. (If it happened to...

Rebuilding my '67 Dart 270 with a 225cid slant-6 engine. I haven't started to reassemble the engine because I'm too busy cleaning 50+ years' worth of dirt off of everything to make it shiny and new-looking (and, you know, to keep from introducing "old dirt" into the system and prolong the life...

Howdy all! I'm rebuilding my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (slant 6 225cid). While I'm waiting for the body to get back from being blasted and the engine to return from being bored, I'm taking care of some odds and ends. Among other things, I'm prepping the dash for paint. Pictured is the glove box door...

I have completely disassembled my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (225cid slant 6). When I got the car, the fuel and temperature gauges worked ... intermittently, at best. So, I got a new, mechanical instrument panel voltage regulator. About two weeks before I started disassembly, the same gauges crapped...

I'm sure the answer is pretty self-evident, but I want to make absolutely certain ... I removed the old, cracked, round, rubber seal in my timing chain cover. It is inset into a ring in the timing chain cover itself. I'm shopping for a replacement part, but I'm not entirely sure of the part's...

The FSM on my 1967 Dodge Dart (slant-6 225cid) says that, after removing my oil pump and oil screen from the engine, I should soak them in "solvent." What kind of solvent are they talking about? Any brands you'd recommend?

As the weather grows cold in southern Indiana, my willingness to do garage jobs on my '67 Dart 270 (slant 6, 225cid) has migrated south with the birds. I have a lot of "inside" jobs, among which is testing the electrical wiring and replacing wires as needed. However, I have no idea how to...

I'm way off from installing a new fuel line into my project 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (225cid slant-6, running a 1bbl Carter BBS carb). However, that day will come eventually and I'd rather plan ahead. The inner measurement of the stock fuel line was 5/16". I'm happy to replace the fuel line with...

Ok, so I done goofed. I thought I was going to be thrifty and use my vinyl trim tools to gently remove the chrome trim from the drip rail and windows on the passenger side of my 4-door '67 Dodge Dart 270. It turned out about as well as you'd expect. A total loss on all counts. Even though some...

Working on my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (3-speed auto, 225cid slant 6) has yielded a number of surprises. None of them have been good. Not all are BAD, mind you, but none has been a pleasant surprise. Until now! I finally drained my transmission fluid in advance of pulling the engine and...

(This isn't a question -- just venting some steam. Though if anyone has any advice, I'm open to it!) Sweet Jesus. I'm a Catholic priest. If I weren't a religious man already, I would be now. I'm stripping my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 back to bare metal to prepare for a new coat of paint. The old...

I'm working with a 4-door 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (no A/C). I'm trying to get the window glass out of the front doors. Per the FSM, I've already removed the nut and screw holding the front track in place. I've also removed the vent glass and the mechanism for rolling the window up and down. At this...

I removed the intake and exhaust manifolds from my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (225cid slant 6) and discovered some good news and some bad news. The Good News: I won't have to worry about cleaning up the exhaust manifold. The Bad News: Because it's cracked. I know that these were given to cracking...

As I was disassembling my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (225cid L6), I noticed that most of the foam gaskets on the body had not performed their job very well. Perhaps they did, since I don't know their primary function, but most of them bonded to the body by means of surface rust. This is especially true...

I'm working on my '67 Dodge Dart 270 and have removed the chrome strip that runs down the quarter panels all the way up to the front of the car. In a few spots, these were held on with 3/8" speed nuts. However, they were mostly held together with plastic rivets. I'm super-careful with the parts...

I'm disassembling my 1967 Dodge Dart 270 (225cid L6 with power steering) and I need to pull the pitman arm in order to get the steering box out. After fighting with the stupid thing with a pickle fork for nearly an hour, I decided I'd get my hands on a pitman arm puller and do it the right way...
