So, It looks like the paint shop broke one of the chrome trim clips on the bottom of my back window. Is there a trick someone knows to get the chrome to stay put without pulling the rear window to install new clips? The local glass shops want a fortune for this for some reason. Thanks all

Does anyone know if they sell just the brushes that go along the top, inside edge of the door against the windows? I bought the whole kit with all the weather stripping but the door brushes ended up getting wrecked when a bunch of contact cement got spilled all over them. I don't want to buy the...

There are those days when I wonder if this old girl was happy being put out to pasture. Last week the dip stick snapped off. This week I get in from being out of town and go have a look at the old girl. As I lifted up the hood, POP! The spring for the hood hinge came off the post. I have not...

Its starting to sound like it looks, turn up your sound. The dart has 2.5 pipes front to back with Dynomax ultraflows. Here is a 360 degree sound bite. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDi8pK09sGs

Well I got the grill done and it took less than five hours to strip it, mask it twice for the silver and black paint. It wasn't as bad as the headlight bezels. I'm running out of things to do and need the car back from the body shop. I'm getting antsy to get it all back together.

Wow. Just stripped, metal prepped masked (twice) and repainted my head light bezels. One word describes that job. TEDIOUS. Tomorrow I tackle the grill. The body shop called and I may have the dart back within a month so I have to get the trim done. I sure hope the grill is not as bad as that...

I'm just ordering the last of the little things I'll need when I get my car back from the body shop in a few months. I can't seem to find anyone who still sells the windshield washer jets. I've got a new hose kit but no jets. Does anyone know who sells these. Thanks in advance

Well, Hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars later she's in the hands of the body shop now. It was a six hour trip each way but I trust this guy and don't want a hack job. Now I wait for the next three months while I strip and repaint the grill, hood call outs and GTS panel. I have a ton...

I'm throwing around the idea of investing in a chroming system as a home business. I would be able to refinish Instrument clusters, chrome plate plastics and most metals. Its not a cheap venture but I think there is a demand for it with all the restorations going on. I know there are a few...

I'm towing my Dart off to the body shop on the 7th and need an answer for my body man. With my exhaust system a stereo my not be an option anyway but I'm wondering if I should leave the antenna or weld up the hole on top of the fender before paint. I like the cleaner look without the whip...

I was putting together my interior and after a few seconds wondered why the allen bolt for the rear window crank was not going in. Well one of the previous owners snapped the head odd in side. So I get out my centre punch and reverse drill bits before trying an easyout and no go. Upon closer...

So I spent a few hours on my back in the trunk last night. This is the last area I have to paint before shipping her off. While I was listening rocking to the sounds of pearl jam I couldn’t help but notice how much sheet metal never got a splash of paint at the factory. The next few hours were...

A day of sanding, wire wheel, welding, grinding, and painting. I used SEM Rust Mort, RM high zinc epoxy primer and POR 15. I hope it lasts another 40 years. The nice thing with the epoxy primer is no sanding between paint.... wet on wet. Next is the R4 charger red in the jambs and inner doors. I...

What is everyone using for the black paint on the 340 hood inserts, dart grill, tail light bezels ect? what sticks well?
