If this replacement sub is rust-free as you say, I would not bother doing this reinforcement to it. Depending on what your car's body type is, you'd get more benefit tying the F&R subframes together. Time better spent. As @Fratzog said - just put a block of wood on your floor jack instead.

Sounds like you're on a budget, and it's real easy to cost-justify every next step on the stairway until you find yourself in the attic and out of money. Anybody up your way have a mid-70s Newport that can donate a 400? An engine you can hear run and do an oil pressure check on? Regasketing...

For locating the shifter hump, or ???

If you find a bench seat you like, I have a 'restored' power bench unit from a 72 Newport I am wanting to sell. 'Restored' means it was disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed, and got some paintwork. That was 20+ years ago, but I checked it recently and it still seems to move OK. If you decide to...

Reminded me of 1972's 'The Master Touch' with Kirk Douglas. Car changes back and forth from a Belvedere to a Phoenix, though.

I made some clips for my 300L and discussed here, might be an avenue you could pursue if you get desperate. making some body trim clips (and adjusting the fuel-fill door) - 65 Chrysler 300L

As you are new here, be aware: We are not allowed to comment on cars being sold by a member. So if there is no 'apparent interest' in your car posted here, that may be why.

Driver of that car knows it well, knows how to start the moves early for the turns so the rest of the car catches up nicely. IF they got F&R swaybars there'd be a new learnign curve. (quite the pun)

This^. If you're gonna make it so pretty that one's enjoyment must be limited to only looking at it, buy some art.

I think that'd be a good buy at $7500 or so due to it needing expensive bodywork and paint. Great colors. Rust-free, new seatcovers in a matching color that look like they were properly done. Change the hood if you must, get a replacement rear bumper, and it would be no different than similar...

I want to make some sort of comment on that.

@71Polara383 What's the story on this???

And now at a broker for 15k...

For future reference, in case we see it again: Per my memory of it last time for sale, it has a TON of rust bubbles below the rear glass, under the vinyl and in the dutchman. Back then it was a decent car for the price, but definitely one that required a gameplan/goal before dumping a lot of...

FWIW, general recommendations on here are to NOT use a drum-brake booster with discs as it will not provide enough boost in a hard/panic stop to maximize braking. Most of those discussions revolve around C-bodies where the factory provided a specific booster for discs vs drums. How a 64 booster...
