    Small Pilot 904? Need help identifying correct transmission

    That info is correct. The earlier converters used the small pilot. 1.5 vs 1.810. A 727 won’t work. You’ll need a 68 and under 904 or a custom converter can be made to suit the early motor with a later trans.

    A500 rebuild. Removing lockup?

    Safe bet is to keep your stall 3-400 below your highway cruising rpm. You’ll need to play with calculators to find that magic number with your gearing. You can get closer than 3-400... but risk boiling due to not coupling often enough to keep fluid cool. I’ll add this too for thought: For a...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    The point is, screw this guy! I want him to be dragged through the mud. So I dropped his name. Feel free to comment on the video and let him know he’s a jerk! Mopar people unite and rally for what’s right! I wouldn’t have considered buying this car had the description been honest. Now I’m...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    So I’m going to peek at a valiant this week, circa 1974. IF the front clip is in good shape, this would get me disc brakes, 8.25 rear end, floor shift/hurst? and an electronic ignition. I’m reading 67-74 frame rails/ front clip will be the same as my 68, with the exception of appearance of the...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    Thanks man. This is a great site and everyone seems extremely helpful. I’m waiting for a reply from oldmanmopar. That would be the best route for me. I’d love to do it myself/learn to weld better. But I have no time for a few years. And I wouldn’t want to half as a repair like this!!

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    Could the video he sent be used as a contract document? He full on lied on video about the condition before sale. I’m not about to take anyone to court. If It was a $20,000 car, then I’d be speaking with an attorney or rallying friends to share my experience and resolving the issue that way...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    I hate to badmouth a stranger. Or anyone for that matter. I will send you a PM as long as you can agree that you won’t badmouth this person either. It’s a nice thought about showing him this thread and asking for a partial refund. Something to think about maybe. How does everybody else feel...

    Anyone know where that washer came from? A little bit smaller than a half dollar and about as thick. Also, who wants to buy an LD 340? I’m gonna need some change to fix this baby up LOL

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    I took his word for it. I was excited. He is an upstanding, supposedly anyway, member of the Mopar community. He hosts a large car shows, I’ve done quite well before and I rolled the dice. The car is worth what I paid for it, maybe better even with the repairs necessary

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    I’ll get some pics up as soon as it dries up outside. I have video from the seller stating how excellent the frame/torsion cross is. “Just surface rust and the factory undercoating peeling “ ect. “Nothing structural “ So if it were a to enter a court, I’m sure I’d be fine. It’s just hard to...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    You may be right. I know I certainly would, and would be all apologies and go above and beyond to make it right. I know there’s a few other issues, but nothing Else structural…So far!

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    Can you post videos here? I’ll get some up tomorrow when I take some more. It’s not a horrible deal. The car has some mud in it and the interior is a bit ratty. But I wanted a notchback since I sold my last one 15 years+ago. Hopefully I can just get it patched up, I do know some really great...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    No offense taken at all. I don’t have the time right now. Too much going on with work, the kids, the house needs a new roof before winter etc. etc. The seller seems really honest, but maybe he’s a really good liar! I try to always see the good in people, and even now, I kind of believe that he...

    I screwed up!! Advice please?

    I’ve done quite well in the past on a few vehicles, sight unseen. Just built a rapport with the seller and had a warm fuzzy feeling of honesty. This guy was the same.
