    Brake light stop switch location- Please Help.

    Good on you! Pity I can't just walk across the Big Pond between us to help you get those old Mopars running.

    Brake light stop switch location- Please Help.

    Right on Kirk! Use my method on the NYer then. The old push-button momentary contact switches all rely on some little spot-welded ring mount which the switch is stuck through, held in place by spring clips or a nut and thread arrangement. Being plenty agile enough to stand on my head for...

    Chrysler Imperial 72 radiator fan clutch

    I'm using that clutch on our '68 here in Tucson. It turns an 18" 7 blade Mopar fan, and in this town, having plenty fan during the summer is a must....

    Hey people, I am in need of Rear leaf springs for 1974 plymouth fury iii. My rear end is sagging really bad

    ESPO sold us a very nice rear spring upgrade about 4 yrs ago, with an extra 2" of lift for the rear. I used that on our '66, then transferred them to the '68 when Mathilda got murdered nearly 3 yrs ago. Gertrude rides great with the ESPO stuff too, and THAT car had had one of its original...

    67 Polara - Can I Do Shocks and Struts at Home?

    KYB Gas-A-Just shocks make a GREAT bang for the buck! I use bailing wire to tie the front ones down short until I get them installed, then snip it and ride smooooth! I noticed a VERY OLD pair on my '83 D150 too when I first got it.

    Brake light stop switch location- Please Help.

    Capitan mon Capitan, I feel your pain, and have a Modest Proposal for you: If you just want an easy to install brake light switch, do as I do, and get a good quality hydraulic switch which you can feed off the front brake line out of your master cylinder. I adopted this approach after my...

    Radiator, recore or replace?

    I can solder electrical connections, but never put my hand to plumbing or brazing. I'm fairly apt with LARGE electrical wire though, and also learned to solder stained glass window frames with copper foil. (Great patching material for radiator tubes I reckon. Tape, then solder over it...

    Radiator, recore or replace?

    You inspire me! That pair of original 2524984s I'm blessed with ARE EXCELLENT radiators, no doubt of it! I reckon I can't **** 'em up worse than the amateurs with business licenses down here can. I might try this. FWIW I can likely rig a decent lye vat to boil 'em out CLEAN, then maybe even...

    Radiator, recore or replace?

    Ah, a High Efficiency core! My '83 Dodge D150 has one. Just 2 rows, but w H.E. spacing. Does OK in town, but when on these DUSTY, BUG INFESTED, OVERGROWN AZ rural back roads, I have to spray the detritus out of the thing after 1 trip. All the same, YOUR beautiful radiator should shed the...

    WTF has happened to VHT SP126???? OUTRAGEOUS!

    Ah, but your idea, while Ecologically Responsible, as well as Proletarian Friendly* is NOT NEARLY AS PROFITABLE AS THE ABSURD CHICKEN LITTLE IDIOT CRAPITALISM PLANNED FOR DECADES TO SCREW US TO OUR COLLECTIVE GRAVE! *Such really IS FAR friendlier to working folks than this EV filth as...

    Who knew homedepot sold auto parts? (beware bolts in GMB U-joint strap kit)

    That ain't workin', THAT'S THE WAY YA DO IT! I search using part#s, descriptions et al, and after 27 years of shopping for old car parts on the WWW, I've got the search engines reasonably well "trained." Beleive it or not, Amazon USED TO FIND ODD OLD PARTS. I recall finding a steering arm for...

    Who knew homedepot sold auto parts? (beware bolts in GMB U-joint strap kit)

    Guys, these Big Box DIY outfits sell heater hoses, common motor oils, plenty name brand pickup truck toys, cherry pickers, et cetera ad infinitum. WHY? They're ONLINE FOLKS!! Very easy for them to grab stuff from suppliers, sell for profit, warehouse, ship and take your $$. Suffice to say...

    1966 Chrysler Radiator Replacement Options??

    Yes, US Radiator! Here's a link to something which might do our OP nicely: Chrysler Newport, 1966-69 V8 361/383/426/440 Radiator - US Radiator I'm VERY happy with the 22" 4 row one I copped off eBay. I likely will drop the mech fan after the Equinox, cruising through the Cool Season here in...

    1966 Chrysler Radiator Replacement Options??

    Have you looked at U.S. Radiator? I'm happy with their product, and I made my own shroud bracket to bolt the 1965 22" shroud to their radiator using 2"x 2" x 1/16" angle aluminum. My bracket brings the shroud closer to the radiator than the heavy stamped steel Mopar made for bolting to the...

    WTF has happened to VHT SP126???? OUTRAGEOUS!

    Yes, I looked at this. If its for something like a water pump, housing and such it will do in a pinch. I'll want to redo ALL of whatever in Hirsch's formulation later, so this might be fine for now....

    WTF has happened to VHT SP126???? OUTRAGEOUS!

    Yah, I'm converted to Hirsch now. I have another 3 blocks to fool with, so I likely will be getting a good deal of his enamel when needed.
