    Intermittent power loss

    Look at the battery terminals plugs sometimes the wire get corroded under the plastic wire covering. We had a 73 Fury that was sold that suddenly would have no starts before it even got from the hotel. Once it was cut back and the corrosion was visible. Trimmed and the car was on its way to...

    Brighten up the Monaco dash with Leds.

    There is really nothing you can do about the browning, it can't be rescreened because Chrysler designed the faceplate to have tiny little holes to let light through to illuminate the numbers from the rear. The faceplate cover itself is a thin paper like material. The holes would be plugged and...

    Instrument Cluster Gone Haywire

    I put an entire new made modern circuit board in mine. The aux gauges would not work and I have a second. I found out that they went to ground. I added the proper new electronic voltage limiter.

    Brighten up the Monaco dash with Leds.

    People with some 74 -75 Models suffer from the dreaded bronzed out dash. I had the old speedo rebuilt (Not by Bobs they had it 3 yrs and never opened the box) and they put in new leds lights. Tip those new Canadian made circuit boards are great. There are available for a variety of Mopars. I...

    I was able to get the actuator cam plastic part for the wiper transmission . The China made wiper motor sucks so that is coming off this week. Look on ebay prices vary but its definitely cheaper than Brad.

    Lost my #%@in' keys! '77 NYB

    When I was restoring my previous NJ SP 73 Fury III I noticed a piece of tape wrapped around the rear axle. It looked like the wide black tape found on cars, almost paper like. I unwrapped it and there was a key wired to the axle. My mechanic at the time said it was an old drag racers trick.

    Phrases we REALLY see in "car-for-sale" ads...

    I had a distant, very distant relative, married a cousin that was used car salesman and a ft cop. He always wrote ads that said truly immaculate. He lied.

    140 Certified speedometer face
