Kudos to you for sharing this information. I have a number of years of those Ward's Annuals, and when you go through them carefully, you realize that what they're printing is Calendar Year information, not model year information. So it's not exactly useless, but almost. The earliest SG30s I'm...

WTF is a "Safe Point Inpsection" and why is it $400 bucks? Lots and lots of kitchy stuff done to the car, which, thankfully can mostly be undone. Further posters speculation is likely correct. There's no front bumper rubber bits at the outer ends on cars built for the Great White North...

I put a double roller chain and CNC machined gears in a /6. At certain RPMs when the engine is at maximum torque, I can hear the cam gear ring very gently. I love the sound.

When was the interior redone?

This is hilarious! Why on earth would anyone want to take out the original torsion bar suspension to put in a variation of the bent-bar front end design from Fbodies? The whole thing is going to be riding in four pucks. If they're rubber, they're going to squirm and that makes for some really...

This type of booster was used a lot in the early '60s by Chrysler because it could be mounted anywhere, and as you can see it pushes the fluid itself and not the brake pedal. It's also commonly used on school buses that don't have air brakes.

Any idea who put that vinyl top on? Chrysler sure as hell didn't.

That spring is a vibration dampener. If it's not there the brake drum can howl like a banshee.

Depends on whether your definition of "best" is the most expensive or the least expensive. Most expensive is any of the name brand oils that advertise they're full of zin and manganese and are the cat's *** for flat tappet engines. The least expensive is to use your choice of modern oil (which...

The WPC Club invites ALL ForCBodiesonly members to their second international and first invitational meet to be held August 6 to 11 in Windsor Ontario. What are you doing this summer? What about a vacation in Windsor? And once you’re here, there happened to be a car show? That’s Windsor...

None of that stuff was "standard" on a car built for Canada. Block heaters and Group 27 batteries were optional. No Chrysler product in these years had heated outside rearview mirrors and there was only one size of windshield washer bottle. One correction: Cars sold in Quebec "may" have...

The carb will be different. The EGR plumbing will be different. The distributor curves may be different.

What a ******* dreamer! Later alternator, absolutely crap material on the seats. Steering wheel wrapped to hide all the cracks. Plus GOK what else. For $30k this car should be IMMACULATE.

And it's not a Chrysler Imperial. It's an Imperial LeBaron.

Find a Hollander Interchange Manual. Everything else is just a guess.
