OK here is the story. In looking for hoses for the 65 413 I see that it is hard to fine a lower hose with the spring in it. I see that the cure is a 13" X 1 5/8" spring that Ford web sites sell. Is this a legitimate fix? Other options? Thanks for the info you have.....

OK got the hub caps shining and waxed. Started in on the fender skirts which look good but the rubber lip seal/anti-squeek is rolled up like a rope and melted into one big lump. Does anyone sell these? Anyone have the sizes of the seal? Was able to get a shine on the fender skirts. Again thank you.

OK first I do not know if this is the right forum for this question. Hub caps. 1965 New Yorker. I spent a few hours today cleaning/polishing the four hub caps. I noticed that one of them has a Factory indent were the valve stem comes through. The other three are flush in that area. Was there a...

So the car is a post January1965 build New Yorker wagon and I got the replacement A/C condenser but need to paint it or not? And did the car get a "Air Condition by Auto Temp" decal on a window? I know 66 and up did but 65?

OK I have the am/fm radio and a new 6X9 speaker. PO (previous owner) had taken it all out. So far I found in the parts pile the mounting brackets and the radio mounting strap and the nuts for it. He took out the grill-why I do not know. I see it has 4 screw that hold it in. what size are they...

And a quick question. The lower body trim on the New Yorker sedans/hardtop. Was it put on the wagons as well? I have seen photos both ways. And did the wagons in 65 get a rear speaker as a option? Thanks from Georgia.

Well the 65 NY Wagon is back on the road as it should be. It only made it about 10 miles into a 20 trip because of water in the tank. Siphoned out the water and drove all the way with out problems. Brakes need a tweek and the parts are on the way. Drives nice shifts when it should. Engine has a...

So I am now looking for a cheap y-pipe to hold me over until I get a dual system. I have tried Walker/Waldron/ebay and others like even TTI. I have a few email out to them. Quick question, my system seams to have a pipe inside a pipe system. Was this stock? Or did it get changed by someone? Car...

OK I am getting flustered on tires/rim/hubcap. I have the original 14 inch rims but having a hard time finding the tires for it, small whitewalls and a 225/14 tires to fit. So I wonder if I got the 15 inch rims what my factory hubcap I could get. Is the "Disk Brake hubcap" the only choice? Could...

So I am looking for some parts-what do you have? I know the 1964 Chrysler and Doge 880 booster will fit. I do not know if a 1966 will fit. Thanks for looking and any help.

OK any post on how to restore or get new "jewels" for my 65 New Yorker? The metal is rusty that surrounds the plastic insert. I see that Chrysler used these on even Plymouth up into the late 60's.

OK I can find 64 and down, and I can find 66 and up. But a 65 Chrysler hood to fender bumper? Do other years work? 66? I have four empty slots looking for a rubber! Do not even know what they look like. part number 2445476. It may be that the 65 Coronet and Belvedere are the same.

OK here is one I did not find info on. Maybe my search terms were not right. On paint what is the current top wax or ceramic coating to use? i hear the ceramic coatings quality very a lot from company to company. 65 Chrysler with original White paint. Thanks.

OK I am now getting ready to rebuild the 727 in our 65 wagon. Still has the drain able torque converter. Fluid is gray/green/ not red. Does not go in reverse and "shifts funny" in drive. I an setting up for the worst. Kits I can find but what friction material do I look for on the bands...

So I am diving into the power brake booster/master cylinder on the New Yorker. Previous owner added a dual master which I like but the cylinder and booster does not move at all. I do not know if it is the original booster. the number I found on it is 18268. Looks to be a bendix. Plastic pieces...

OK wagon lovers, what do you use for the headliner? Is the perforated pressed sawdust panels around still? Substitute? And what modern up grade is there for the sound/heat barrier under the roof? Being a A/C car I would want to keep heat out and cold in as best as I can (multiple heart attacks...

OK I am showing my age again but 30-40 years ago "Gunk" or "Berryman" were the go-to cleaners for a carb soak and clean. But they are very weak now days. So paint thinner? Alcohol? To blow out after soaking-brake clean or electrical clean? Do not want ultrasonic, husband left a brass float to...

OK I am getting most of the mechanical parts sent to me. Even found some of the rubber parts. Some are not being found. Like door seals, tail gate and window seals. And some were along the way the original "air foil" wipers were replaced with generic ones. Not the arms but the blade holders. And...

OK another stupid question. What are the 8 black plastic straps that hold the wire harness to the inner fender, in the sheet metal channel called? Who sells them and what size are they?

OK I am a little behind the times but back in the day Champion was the go to spark plug (Circa 1979). What is the current thought? Engine is a 413. And i know that for the max energy transfer the coil needs to be matched to the load. For that reason you are not to run resistive HV wire with...
