Attached is a photo of what I have. You can see my car is a permanent vert atm as the top and rear window are rotted out. My frame is in good shape. I figure it wouldn't be too hard to build in the adjustments needed on non-headrest bucket seat back frames for headrests, a few internal frame...

Similar deal with me but most of the missing parts are attainable and interchangeable with Chrysler Australia models of the same era and of course eBay, Classic, RockAuto, YearOne Legendary etc etc. Tell you what though, finding these missing buckets and tracks is HARD but I have time as it's...

Aw, ok thank you.

Now I'm really confused ???

Hi everyone I'm looking for bucket seats for my '69 Dart as it came without. A pair of what are claimed to be '68 Barracuda buckets have come up locally minus the tracks; and are factory hemi fixed brackets which I'm not interested in long term. I've read alot about the inter-compatibility of...

@Surprise67GT I will do some research yes. Sounds promising. Could I bother you please to grab the front to back floor pan attachment bolt distance and across the diagonal measure too plus any pics would be great ?

Thank you @413 good to know and I see this now after a bit of research :thumbsup:.

Hi everyone I'm beginning the hunt for a pair of bucket seats for my LP27. They were very kindly removed before I bought the car. Given the scarcity of these things I'm willing to consider pretty much any condition and if not from a '69 then any '67/68 or whatever compatible track and internal...

Yep, bang on. You're correct as I was fast typing before getting on with today's work. Sorry for my error.:thumbsup:

So, the 3/8 UNC spec threads in nicely now with a bit more torque than my hand :) and some WD40. Weird though as all my research has come up with a 7/16 UNC for that hole and my 7/16 shank does not even bite the threads. Oh well, you live and learn.

I did slot a 3/8 UNC in there just to see and will try again with light tooling as only used my hand before. Def grade 8 7/16" x 14 TPI UNC Coarse Zinc Hex Bolts Part Thread High Tensile Grade 8 AS 2465. Looking around the web tells me the spec should be 7/16 but will fiddle around again.

Hi everyone I'll keep this short and sweet. Is the bolt circled a (2" under head shaft length) 7/16"-14 TPI UNC 7/16"-14 TPI UNF 3/8" -16 TPI UNC 3/8" -16 TPI UNF Asking because circled bolt I have (7/16"-14 TPI UNC) won't go into the bell-housing. Screwdriver pokes right into bell-housing...

Hey @6pk2goDemon this is great thank you. I was wondering why my '69 Dart Conv had no trunk light, glove box light, headlight on warning buzzer etc. I suspected the A01 light package (or lack of one) and this confirms my suspicion. Was having a hard time working it out from the wiring diagram...

Yes, it's really strange that I (and others) have not been able to successfully find this information about the springs or OE repops for the /6, but there are plenty of sources for any V8 block. Anyway, I'm happy to go off and source my own make do springs as this method seems to be my only...

Hi everyone 225 Holley 1920 1-barrel carb. What's the deal with these springs ? I need both circled in blue below (both are missing) but I can't find any info on specs or actually anyone selling them (Mancini/ebay etc) - no-one seems to care about the /6 when it comes to return springs. So...

Thanks for the replies here. I imagine there was/is a spec for these springs (wire gauge, number of loops, spring length etc) but I cannot find one anywhere so can only imagine it's not a big deal as long as the tension is not stupid enough to but strain on any pivots. My 1920 must be a '74 or...

Thanks @A56 - Figured I'd try here first and if nothing jump over.

Hi everyone 225 1920 Holley 1-barrel carb. What's the deal with these springs ? I need both circled in blue below (both are missing) but I can't find any info on specs or actually anyone selling them (Mancini/ebay etc) - no-one seems to care about the /6 when it comes to return springs. So...

Yeah man. Am looking forward to ripping into some teardown proper. Removing fenders and rocker arm covers doesn't really do it. Good to know about no flying components. I've had that before where two sprung loaded components go in different directions and it's anyone's guess how to replace them...

I think I'll be tearing the engine bay down once I coral the bits I'm missing. I found the cook book steps in the FSM and yes it reads straight forward until you open something up and springs fly everywhere. I've hunted around the web and the valve assembly does look the same on both platforms...

The FSM means more to me than my family if this is permitted. Seriously though (and I love my family btw), it's more useful than any other tool I have in the garage. I'm keen to retain my PS box as is and simply need to bolt the valve assembly on assuming there are zero differences in the valve...

I have the FSM and have more looked at the pictures not the text so will read up today. Appreciate the heads up though, thanks.

Yes I want to but I can't get to the damn thing. The exhaust is the main culprit but then there's the tranny cooler lines, NSS cable, speedo cable etc plus the bolt head faces rear so it's tough just to get a socket extension down there. Figure I might just drop the prop shaft or lift the rear...

Hi everyone Pretty sure I've not posted to this forum before. An easy question hopefully. Car: 1969 Dart Conv 225 /6 auto So, I need to replace a few missing parts to get the car to at least a running and driving type of state. I'm at the PS core now and am missing the valve assembly which...

I've now read this explanation over a number of times and my understanding has vastly improved. I'm not going to attempt to hack the circuits to get the engine to fire and am going to order the starter relay, battery +ve cables, starter relay to solenoid cable and likely replacement ground...

Wow, thanks @67Dart273 for this explanation. I have the FSM only to go on atm and am learning how the circuits actually work so a real life explanation such as this will go a long way to me and I'm sure others understanding. I'm in no rush to break or kill any components of course and will be...

Hi everyone 1969 Dart, 225 /6, 904 trans, no starter relay or battery +ve cable. So, I'm getting close (or thought I was) to lighting up my /6 and realised that I actually do need the starter relay to tie the driver side system parts as I reference them (battery, starter relay...

Hi Fabo I've got a guy on my local Facebook marketplace off loading a heap of a/b-body quarter panels. I have expressed interest and he tells me AMD are discontinuing the Dart quarter panel production line. Says they have been popular and he has one set left (aren't I the lucky one). Anyway, I...

Regarding the trans bracket; I believe the hole receiving the base of the torque shaft is factory offset to the left slightly looking from the top. Agree with the shape of the upper rod. Lower Shifter Bracket : suit 904/727 Torqueflite Selector Bar

Thank you for your collective help peeps on FABO. Half the fun of this car building game is the research and through that talking to people that know and are willing to share information. Your knowledge is greatly appreciated especially when there are few mopars in my part of the world; well...
