    What should I offer?

    Hey guys. Long time, no post! Anyway, I have lines on a cool 1971 Duster. Slant six, column 3spd, manual everything-my dream car. It is sitting in a backyard a few houses away from me, and has been there for a few years. I pass it every day going to work, and it is killing me to see it sit. I...

    2852905 8-1/4" into my Dart??? HELP!!

    I recently got ahold of a 2852905 casting 8-1/4" rear end. It is complete with a 3:21 gear ratio, and is exactly what I want for the Dart.

    Removing Factory AM Stereo?

    I am yanking the stock AM stereo in my '72 Swinger to put a new AM/FM setup in. Problem is getting the stock AM setup out. I have already removed the under-dash A/C vents, and the ash tray "tray." Now I can't figure out how to remove the ash tray "bezel," the frame with the plug and light. I...

    Are DeSoto Parts Worth Anything?

    So there is this really rough '50s-era Desoto 2dr sitting down by a creek on a relatives property. It has been sitting there since the '70s, and has dirt floor pans, no glass, and has been flooded many times. The 1st gen HEMI under the hood is way rusted, and has been sitting without a valve...
