    Weird sales question

    I’m just finishing up painting my 1970 300 convertible back to its factory colour. I’ve rebuilt the factory matching numbers 440 and done a bunch of other work on it. Unfortunately it’s looking like I’m going to sell the car either in the fall or next spring. I know a lot of these cars over the...

    72 satellite wagon torque spec

    I’ve got an FSM on the way for my 72 satellite wagon but it’s not here yet. I’m swapping out tires and rims back to the factory 14” steel rims so I can put the factory wheel covers on. Can anyone help me out with the wheel nut torque spec for my wagon?

    14” white lines?

    I’m looking for a set of 14” white line tires to get the perfect stock look on my 1972 Satellite wagon. They seem almost impossible to find these days. Does anyone know a source for them? I’m in Canada which doesn’t help with sourcing some.

    1970 300 body line

    So I’m finally at the point of prepping the rear half of my 1970 300 convertible for paint. The car had some very crude body work and a repaint years ago at the top of the rear wheel arches. As you can see in the photo someone just bent up a 90 degree piece and welded in along the top of the...

    Front marker light grounding issue

    I’ve repainted my car back into its factory colour after stripping the previous paint jobs off. I reinstalled all of the lights, etc and both front side marker lights (amber) in each fender aren’t staying on with the lights on. If I reach into the back of them and wiggle each one they will go...

    Bench testing power antenna

    The power antenna on my 70 300 has been replaced at some point in the past, and is currently not working. A friend gave me an era correct power antenna he had and I thought I would just swap it out with mine, then I thought I should bench test it first to ensure it is working before installing...

    Fender pentastar question

    I’m refinishing my 1970 300 convertible, and I’m working on the passenger side fender and door. I’ve removed the fender pentastar and it is basically all black plastic now from years of abuse, so I can’t tell what the original colour was over the black plastic. I see that both gold and silver...

    1957 Windsor questions

    I’m looking at buying a 1957 Chrysler Windsor that is complete, but has been sitting for a long time. The car would need a restoration but is definitely saveable. This car has single headlights, and in searching photos of 57 windsors I see mostly dual headlights. We’re the single headlights...

    Door adjustment question

    I’m prepping my 1970 convertible for paint, and I’m playing with the fit of the drivers door. The door operates perfectly, and the body line towards the top of the door lines up perfectly with the same body line on the front fender and the rear quarter. My issue is that at the front bottom of...

    Hot engine after rebuild

    I had some matching done on the 440 out of my 70 300 convertible. I’ve spent the week assembling it, painting it and reinstalling it, and today I was able to fire it up and do the cam and lifter break in. I idled the car at 2000 rpm for 20 minutes or so, and then I noticed that it was getting...

    Wheel arch panels?

    I spent the day stripping the overpaint off of the rear of my 1970 300 convertible as I was curious to see what was underneath and as expected I found some very iffy body repair work over the rear wheel openings; at one place there was 3/8” of bindi over the poor welding to rebuild the body line...
