Hi All.... I'm on a roll with all these posts tonight..... So... my wipers don't work. Motor works good, but the linkage has come off the motor. When I bought my car, and had a quick check out done on it, the mechanic told me the plastic bushings that hold the arms together were worn out...

Hi All: A quick question about Horns. When I bought my car, the Horn didn't work at all. After some research, and a post about a NYC horns, I managed to get my horn working. Someone along the way disconnected the lead to the horn itself, and the horn relay was missing. I reconnected the...

Work on my 1974 Valiant continues to get it past inspection...... I need a functioning emission control system to pass. I've got the heated air intake working, the OSAC system working, the Evap system working and a new EGR valve and CCEGR switch installed. What I can't figure out is where the...

One more question for tonight :) Does anyone know who can repair the original seat belt retractors? My Driver's side bottom retractor doesn't work properly. It's locking the belt WAY too fast when you pull it out. Have any of you guys run into this? Were you able to fix it yourself? If not...

Hi All: I'm trying to put an order together through Classic Industries. One of the things I need is a door latch for the driver's side. The piece that catches on the door strike moves around and you have to push it into place before closing the door. Classic Industries has door latches for...

My power steering box is leaking....everywhere. So I decided to order a new one from Rock Auto. The box arrived today, but it's way smaller than the power steering box that's in the car. Anyone aware of a smaller power steering box? Will it fit in place of the larger box? I sure hope I...

On my '74 Valiant, the chrome piece that the key fits into the column will do a 360 degree turn with no key in the ignition. It won't start the car, (unless you insert the key) but it spins all the way around. I've seen this on some older Chrysler vehicles before, but have no idea what the...

Anyone know where the turn signal flasher would live on a '74 Valiant? I found the hazard flasher on the left hand side of the instrument panel. However, I can't seem to locate the turn signal flasher. Service manual suggests it's near the ashtray, but I can't find the flasher anywhere. Any...

Any born and raised New Yorkers here? I was troubleshooting a horn issue with my '74 Valiant, and came across in the Wiring Diagrams, reference to something called a New York City Horn. Anyone know what the heck the difference would be between this, and a regular car horn?

Thought I should post here and introduce myself....I've posted a few posts here, but was waiting to have my Valiant in the garage before throwing this out here. My first Valiant was a '69 Two Hundred six cylinder car. I drove it in the late 80s. Fast forward to today.... I wanted a second...

Hi All: I've got an owners manual and service manual on the way from Faxon, so hope I don't have to ask a question this dumb again....lol. On my car, there is a map light switch on the bottom of the dash beside the hood release. Unfortunately, the switch seems to need replacing....it doesn't...

Can anyone verify that a Mopar 0FE00151 oil filter will work on an 1974 318 V8? I did some comparisons between an 1974 Valiant and a 1989 Plymouth Gran Fury (2bbl) and it appears that they both share the same air and oil filter. Can anyone confirm?

Am I right in thinking that a group 34 battery is correct for these cars? I'm being a little anal....I want to get a Mopar branded battery. If I walk into the dealer and ask for a group 34 battery, am I good to go?

Hi All: New user here..... I'm getting my ducks in a row to pick up a '74 Valiant I just bought. The car will need tires. Unfortunately, I need to order tires for a car I've not seen yet. Does anyone know what the standard tire size would be for this car? Was there an optional larger...
