I went to a car show and had a great time with folks admiring my 1960 New Yorker. One of those admirers was a professional photographer named Barb Tyler. She took great photos of my car and many others at the show. She has a great eye for subject, composition, and lighting. A real professional...

I found this on the Internet Archive buried in a compilation video of old TV commercials. Big machine tools, hard work, hand work, and pride in the work itself, not just the product and the profit. OK, enough of my editorializing. It's a positive promotional video showing hard working men...

I'm happy to say that DaPoz steered me right in recommending Harmon Classic Brakes to rebuild the power brake booster in my 1963 300. They did a great job with incredible customer service. Tara and George went beyond all my expectations -- and sent the rebuilt booster back in time for me to get...

JMHO - There is the most gorgeous car in the world in my driveway. Life is good!

Anyone have a lead on 60+ year old touchup paint? I'm looking for Pacecar Blue for my 1963 300 Pacesetter convertible. Any help is much appreciated.

A local high school has had a car show three years now where the students are the judges for trophy awards. The weather was beautiful and brought out about 140 cars in our rural county! The show organizer (a teacher) arranges with Hemmings staff to give the student judges guidelines on what to...

I need to rebuild the brake booster on my 1963 (non-letter) Chrysler 300. Many auto parts sites do not include a 1963 Chrysler in their Make/Model drop-down lists, so I get skeptical when I see 1963 parts offered online. I turn to you to ask about this vendor and the brake booster rebuild kit...

So, my 1963 300 is neither a Forward Look nor a Slab Side ride based on the forum's categories. This has been discussed here previously, so there is no need to rehash all that. I wanted to post a picture of my 300 before heading out this morning to drive veterans' widows in our Memorial Day...

The brakes on my 1963 300 Pacesetter were virtually non-operational. It has "power" brakes." (Scare quotes are deliberate...) Four drums, single pot master cylinder. Oh **** braking performance. So, I replaced the master cylinder, all the flexible hoses, the wheel cylinders and the brake shoes...

I sent this is in to another forum a while ago and have yet to get approval from the administrator for this to be posted. So, I turn to you good people. I need to replace the floor pans in my 1961 Dodge Dart Pioneer. It is a 2 door hardtop. I an looking for you to help with my questions. Are...

I'm looking for two hubcaps for my 1963 Chrysler Pacesetter. I have two on hand. That said, if a set of four is out there, I would take all four rather than have a seller break up a set. Here's a picture of one of the hubcaps I have. I'm looking for two (or four) of the same. Message me if you...

I am upgrading my 2 door hardtop Pioneer armrests which require the aircraft style door handles. I have searched ebay -- not satisfied with the handles I've found for sale. I'm looking for handles in better condition than these, but I'm not looking for show car quality - my car is a driver...

At the Albany, NY "Dad Fest" car show today, my car was recognized in the top 25 as voted by participants. It's an unrestored, patinated survivor with just a few needed things added since coming out of a barn. My hat is off to the show car owners who voted for their choices. Very few people said...

The local Memorial Day parade organizers asked if I would agree to drive my 1963 300 Pacesetter convertible in their parade. In the past, I've shepherded veteran honorees in my 1960 New Yorker. But now that it was known that I had a convertible, "That would be so much nicer!" "Absolutely!" I...

I have a 1963 300 Pacesetter convertible. I don't particularly care to pigeonhole it into a category, but where does it belong? Is it a Forward Look? -- From this forum: "Forward Look Forum: 1955 through 1961 - The Pre C Body era of Classic Mopars" No, my car doesn't fit that...

WANTED - Heater/Fan/Defroster control - for 1963 300 Tried to move this post from the "Wanted" thread to here. Big_John shared his knowledge on repairing these controls. Thanks, Big_John. And thanks to all on this forum for sharing your experience and expertise.

Looking to buy the heater controls for my 1963 300. Part number 2290089, code 073. Vacuum ports are all sheared off my part. Looking for a replacement before I try to repair my damaged part. PM me if you have the part to sell/trade. Thanks.

I have lost track of the thread, but I saw a post with an image of an old Radio Shack anti-theft system warning sticker. I myself am an old Radio Shack nerd, and I thought that this warning message would be "way cool" (70s jargon) in the window of my 60s cars. I took the image, cleaned it up...

Three out of four armrests I have for my 1961 Dodge Dart Pioneer are "okay-ish," but I'm looking for four good ones. Getting two good ones would be great. Getting one good one would be OK. But four really nice ones would be ideal. I know that Chrysler used these same armrests on many models back...

My family arriving at my grandparents on an Easter Sunday a long time ago. I'm the little boy in the red bow tie. I was born in 1955, so this film is from 1960 or so? Does that jive with the model year of he wagon? Not looking for answers, particularly, just hoping you get a kick out of this...
