In my 68 I have the dash switch, and the deck vent trim. But in 1988 I was more interested in 2 speakers, plus living in Fl, I wasn’t worried about a rear defrost, so, being young & dumb, I tossed the blower motor & 6x9 hole adapter

You think you’re slow, I take everyone’s hours estimate and convert it to weeks

Before a hammer & dolly, I'd "close" it on a block of wood. Put the wood in there, then gently apply some body weight. Let some others chime in before you go doing anything I say though. I've been known to louse some things up pretty good.

What Del said above. I forgot about that part, I got a decent quality respirator, made sure I had fans moving the air away from me and Did most of the work outside.

I used that kit. Glad I did it, but it is work compared to plastic, but I felt it was A- much stronger B- really the right way to do it BUT I was working with a rotisserie, so it was easier to keep the hot expensive Liquid Metal from ending up on the floor. Knowing how to solder wires, I felt...

Pretty much as @-Boosted- said "1 step bigger than the hole in the chrome bezel" I've seen different size pins, what size are your pins?

It probably is, the glass does need to glide up/dn in the channel. It looks like 55 year old dried out, cracked, chunks missing rubber

Thank you, I’ll give them a try this week

What is the rubber in this guide on the side glass at the back of the door called? Maybe a source? Part # even better. 68 Dart 2 door hardtop

I plug welded a piece 4” blank electrical plate with a 3/4 (IIRC) KO behind the pillar. I did have to remove and reinstall the clip -holder- bracket-whatever you call it- from inside.

My guess would be those pesky wiper pivot seals. Like in the roof of a house-when water leaks it seldom shows up directly below the entry point, rather, it travels along some surface until it catches on something allowing it to pool enough to form drops that then fall, all in a well devised...

You have to melt the lead out of the seam at the rocker and the top at the lower part of the sail panel. i leaded mine back in but a lot of people use plastic filler. I didn’t trust that plastic would hold up long term (maybe it will) Like everything else, there are videos on YouTube on how to...

I don’t know what it costs, price isn’t listed. My painter had never tried it before, but really liked it. He did note that you need to allow it ample time to dry as it states in the directions. Longer than most are used to. https://www.southernpolyurethanes.com/solvent-wg-remover

I screwed a couple 2x4 steel studs across the door openings until I had the subframe connectors in place.

I wish i saw this thread 5 weeks ago!

Thank You @Dana67Dart I appreciate the time to take & post photos. I try to do the same when I find something I can actually answer that also hasn’t been covered in enough detail already.

Thank you for the replies so far. As it is sitting right now, the radiator is setting right on the core support, not even with the rubber pads. It don’t go no lower.

I have a 1968 dart. How high does your radiator cap sit higher than your core support? I have a griffin aluminum supposedly perfect fit radiator, but it seems like it sits kind of high. My hood is still buried in the shed and I’m not really ready to install it yet. I realize that the real answer...

True, but I believe it to be the same part #

Lotsa information in this thread DOOR GLASS RUN CHANNEL SEALS | For A Bodies Only Mopar Forum

X 2 on SPI I had my car done by a local guy on the side. He really liked the SPI stuff EXCEPT he’s a sprayer in a high volume shop and isn’t used to the wait times some of their stuff requires. Used the SPI Epoxy, some filler, sealed work with more epoxy & painted my car with shop line ( I...

I'd be leery of struts myself. Getting them mounted in the right place and the right length to not cause a lot of stresses on mounting points seems like it would be a crapshoot. Like you said, that hood gets heavy. Wouldn't it be easier to just get a set of hinges with the springs? Just...

Wow, a thread I started Has gone to two pages. Pictures were so small on the phone, I didn’t know which ones I was posting, I just tapped on a few. Good eye. I used USCarTool connectors, they are not installed yet. The round pipe is some 3/4” EMT conduit I ran inside the frame rails (apparently...

Some rotisserie pics

Feel totally free to PM me. I’ll answer anything I can. Most mopar specific tricky stuff, I asked questions here. Everything else I googled, many times leading right back to here. Other than tinkering around, I had never done any car work. It just takes a lot of persistence, and I did a lot of...

And, What might be for Lunch today?

I Texted him your comment, He LOL'ed.

Thanks, It’s Toyota 6V4-Spruce Mica.

I’ve been working on this for about 7 years. I never did start a build thread, but have posted here in various threads. I replaced Quarters, Rockers, Dutchman, Trunk Floor, Wheel Tubs, Front Floor Pans, repaired the front corners of both Doors, & rear corners of front Fenders. I added USCarTool...
