    Paint under hood.

    Clarification, your talking about the engine side of the core being body color. In the last three years in connection with my restoration project, I have taken to many parts off of to many 65's and 66's and on only rare occasion was the grill side not black. Battery tray body color; mine is...

    Paint under hood.

    I was told either the body color or black. I did body color, MISTAKE. I should have done black because my car is white and you can see it through the grill. I will be changing it to black with a lot of work in taping and papering. Grrrrrr!

    Sad but true

    WANTED 1966 Sport Fury Tail light lenses

    Here is a little trick I learned when I was looking for tail light and back-up lenses. I was able to always find many cracked but not perfect/good lenses during my restoration project but I learned how to mend plastics from working with plexiglass. If the lenses are cracked, or even broke for...

    How does a gas tank get restored?

    Cut the number off and weld it on the tank! LOL! Like I said, I had mine done three times with the coating and going for the fourth when they started reproduction of the tank. That was 10+ years ago and never looked back and it is still a nice shiny silver; Arizona of course! I am just...

    How does a gas tank get restored?

    Brand Spanking, shiny new tank for $300 vs a cut up, welded, gunked up, old seams, potentially going bad in other places, more trouble to fix gas tank and when your all done, you still have an old gas tank with potential problems and you save how much but what the hey! Gas Tank -1965 Fury

    1965 Sport Fury Front Bumper

    As a followup and I don’t misunderstand, the front bumper on the 65 AND the 66 are the same and interchange. I read one comment that the holes are different? Thanks, valuable info.

    1965 Sport Fury Front Bumper

    I have read several different comments/articles with different conclusions. Will a bumper from a 65 Fury I - III fit a 65 Sport Fury?

    Aluminum Radiator Nightmare!

    The sad part is, it would have only required removing the wrong bracket and replacing it with the right bracket rather taking the time and energy to deny correct baled claim. One would also think JEGS would be concerned about their own reputation given the large number of products they offer...

    Aluminum Radiator Nightmare!

    Still fighting the battle with Griffin after 3 rounds via the Arizona AG. Griffin’s latest excuse is that I further modified the radiator by removing the incorrect brackets and replacing them, this is after, of course, they had refused to offer resolution because my polishing the top prevented...

    WANTED Rear View Mirror.

    Rear View Mirror 1965 Plymouth SF Convertible. My rear view mirror will not stay in place, wore out. Gum will not hold it in place. Mirror is nice but doesn’t help when it looks at the console. Suspect mirror from other years and models may work. Needs to be clean and shiny; not the one...

    How does a gas tank get restored?

    Don’t waste your time and money, buy a new one. This is a prelude of problems to come. Been there, done that!

    Radio Adapter

    Update: I finished installing the AM adapter and followed my original thoughts to enable Bluetooth function along with converting the signal so I could use my 1965 AM radio. Prior to starting the installation, I diagrammed, color coded, it all using Excel. The diagram worked well and helped...

    I inquired after your comment. Like other comments herein, he used JB Weld and then he said he put on 9 coats of paint. I took a closeup. Very nice!

    Recasting steering wheel options

    Material? I have discovered that the best material is to let the person you hire choose the material. The steering was done by the same person who painted the car. When he saw the wheel he said “ I can fix that for you” and what you see is what he did. This was after I bought a wooden walnut...
