    Shaping up to be a car again

    Just got these beauties in!! They are going to look SO good on the 68! I also got these factory style caps for 68 too… Though I feel that these are kinda ugly, at the same time they’re cool because they’re original and would give my car a period correct “stock” look. Everyone I’ve shown...

    Thoughts on the value of a 1959 Dodge Coronet?

    Those are some damn cool projects!

    known source for Newport vinyl clips

    Probably available from a vendor "Auveco", or similar. A somewhat common item years ago. Held outer metal moldings onto exterior body panels. Hence the "gasket" on them to decrease water intrusion. Different sizes, too. CBODY67

    1966 Newport brake light

    Seems like I had better luck by, rather than twisting and pulling straight out, trying to "bend" the sock out by rotating the wire end to one side, easily, until it came out partially and then fully? That way, not trying to compress all of the spring retainers at once. Just some of them. Now...

    Which AC compressor. RV2 or Sandon on my 66 New Yorker

    Well after a lot of thought, help and advice from all of you as well as my classic car buddies, I decided that I'm going to stick with the RV2 set primarily to keep the stock look and nostalgia of the original equipment. I pulled the trigger and ordered a rebuilt compressor from a reputable...

    1966 Newport brake light

    That socket will just pull straight out, no twisting. Here's what the hole looks like on a '66 tail light. Note the tab. You'll have to line the socket up with that when you reassemble it.

    Interior lighting lights…

    There is always power to the sockets. The light is turned off and on by the door jamb switch providing ground. If you check that socket, with the switch on, you should be able to get 12volts when you touch the probes from your voltmeter to both contacts (meaning one probe on each...

    Yeah that's what everyone's telling me. Already using zinc weld through. I'll see if I can paint up to 1" surrounding the weld seam without burning up. Might fill this cavity with wax if it doesnt' weigh too much.

    1966 Newport brake light

    You could go around the lamp socket with a flat head screwdriver. Keep in mind that there’s 50+ years of dirt and grime and possibly rust holding that socket in.

    Interior lighting lights…

    Is the dash dimmer switch up all the way? As you turn up the dash lamps dimmer there is a “bump” and if you go past this bump that switch will turn on the interior lights. The dimmer switches are known to fail. Sometimes some electrical contact spray will help. If that doesn’t fix the...
