    I need some fuel sending unit experts please

    You still have the old fuel sender? Test it to make sure the resistance changes as you move the float. Then get yourself a couple long pieces of wire. Connect the first wire to the wire at the sending unit location, and the old sending unit. Connect a second wire to the battery ground and...

    1966 Factory V8 Valiant Signet Restoration For My Other Daughter

    My uncle has been a mechanic for 40 years, so he was around when the under dash units were being installed. A tool to make the holes makes sense since he knew about someone using a drill to make the holes. Cost the shop a new transmission. My holes aren't that clean. Mine looks like they...

    [WANTED] A/C parts for retrofit install; 63 Dart 225

    I have both a factory unit and a Sears unit on 65s. First photo is the Sears compressor. Still has the factory radiator, no upgrade. Second is the factory. I can get better pictures is you need them. Both cars have the same radiator, so no difference there.

    Gas Tank Size?

    When I replaced the one in my 65 Dart everything said 18 gallon tank. It runs out the filler neck if you put more than 16 gallons in it. I measured it several times, no way it holds 18 gallons.

    Fuel Tank Filler Neck Grommet

    The filler neck on a 65 Dart can be removed without removing the tank. If you can't remove the filler neck in the Barracuda the answer would be no. If you can get the filler neck out, the answer is maybe.

    Metric hardware in brake parts (rant)

    It is very hard to find SAE parts. I'm lucky in one of the local NAPA stores has a counter man that understands. He's ordered a number of wheel cylinders and sent them back as being "incorrect" since they were metric. Since then I've learned that Autozone, Advanced Auto Parts and O'reilly...

    Pictures only thread

    Driving Again

    The AC works ok. Or at least it did. Been many years since it was on. It's a simple unit with a bracket to mount the compressor that can only be described as home made. I can tell you that it makes gas mileage go down about 3mpg but the vent temp was 34 degrees.

    My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

    I was able to confirm the routing of the trunk weatherstripping is correct. It runs below the lip at the bottom. A convertible is on my list if I can find one I can afford. I also want a 2 door. Always looking for blue.

    My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

    Yes. Mine are 4 doors. You can see the Medium Poly Blue at Driving Again Here is the picture you requested. I think my seal has slipped as I thought it covered the lip. I'll check again in the morning as it was to dark to check after I took the picture.

    My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

    Bill, If you need pictures of anything just ask. Mine are mostly original. On the lights check the switch. Mine needs to be replaced due to not being used for so long. I had the same problems with the front blinkers. My dash lights don't work unless the switch is in the exact position that...

    My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

    Bill, Very nice car. Is that the original color? Looks like Medium Poly Blue same as mine except mine has been fading for 60 years. The tail lights are for a car that doesn't have backup lights. The center should be white if it had backup lights. Mine has the opposite problem, backup...

    Driving Again

    Four door, slant six, three on the tree. No power anything, but it does have a Sears AC unit. It's a sweet cruiser now. Drove it daily for years. Current plan is to fix what needs fixing, replace what I have to, and paint it back original DD1. The rims are PPG DD1 mix, but I think they are...

    Driving Again

    I've worked on it most of the summer. Fuel to the carburetor and a new battery was all it took to get it started. Then I had to replace wheel cylinders and master cylinder so it will stop. Then I worked on getting fuel from the tank to the carburetor. All under a car port this summer with...

    Driving Again

    Been over 14 years but today I drove my Dart again. Not far, just down the block and back. It's a long slow road back. So far wheel cylinders, master cylinder, fuel pump, tires, repainted rims, gas tank and sending unit. Had to modify the OER sending unit to get it to fit. It's not even...

    If you find a source please let me know. I need another one for the other car. Maybe this will help with the replacement boxes.

    New glovebox liners for early a-bodies don't fit.

    My 65 Dart has a light in the glove box. It was there when I purchased the car from the original owner.
