When I started this hobby (hate to say what year given my progress), and got involved in the forums, I was sure I saw an reference to someone who could restore exterior trim - meaning massaging the dents out. I thought to keep it mind as mine did need it but was not at that stage yet. Years...

I've seen some YouTube's videos' lathering the LCA with lubricant prior to pressing in. I this correct? Thanks, Shawn

Can or should the outside cat whickers be installed prior to window installation or after? (68' 300 Convertible)

While installing my front window on my 68’ 300, the steel edging on the rear of the glass fell off. There appears to be a rubber insert with a brown cement or glue. Can this be replaced or and what would the glue/cement/sealant be? Thanks.

Would these be available somewhere? Mine are rubbing on the steel mounting rivets. I’m going to see if the local hardware store has generic however unsure of a mounting procedure. Thanks.

I believe I am missing something in front of me. Rebuilt all window motors. All bench tested good in the regulators. Mounted in car and no movement. Getting 12.4 V on tan wire at switch., 12.29 on the leads going to the motor. Test ground (blk) at switch with probe, all good. Tested the...

I have looked in the service manual and they only show one side of the rear quarter window. My question is, are all the motors supposed to have the wiring orientated towards the bottom of the window cavity? Been so long since io removed these, I cannot remember and didn't take pictures. Right...

Not sure I am describing it correctly, looking for the late 60's, not sure if it went into the early 70's, non-tilt cruise control lever in good condition, however will look at all offered/available.

It’s been too long from disassembly to remember the original shape and function of the convertible frame. Mine has the front header and two cross bows behind. Front header is missing in photo. In trying to find examples on YouTube, most had three crossbow, albeit GM examples. Would anybody...

I have read the front part of the 68’ Chrysler parts manual and unless I need more coffee, I get lost on some items or maybe no part number exists. Looking at the diagram below, I am trying to locate a part number for the retainer 8-50-163 however cannot find it the code section at the front...

Would anybody know where to get this inside material? Appears to be rubber with a felt or mohair interior and it is riveted in place. Have tried outlets like Steel and DMT with no luck, unless I’m missing something. Looks like this.

Well it’s been about three years working on this 68’ 300 convertible and am ready to reinstall the vent window and window tracks and regulators. Removing those pieces was not in an “experienced manner” but rather a whatever and however mindset. Anyway here we are. I have reconditioned the...

Have a 73’ Imperial that I installed a supposedly rebuilt aluminum diverter unit and would like to test things out. On the brief running of the engine, I didn’t get the response it should have provided. However the car sat for many years and likley had fluid and vacuum issues. Would anybody...

Would anybody have a conveniently exposed door whereby the rod from the lock cylinder rod to latch can be photographed? I must have misplaced mine and not being an engineer, am having trouble making one. I have others from parts cars however are too long or are for electric locks. Thanks.

Have old horns from my 68' 300. They are in creped condition and sickly sounding. Has anybody successfully reconditioned these horns? I have viewed some Youtube video's on this but none specific to the Spartan or Prestolite horns. I see you can get aftermarket for maybe $20 plus dollars...

Going on a limb here. I have seen at least two excellent examples of 68' 300's with a hood ornament in the past three weeks on this forum. My 68' does not have one. From my reading, 68's were not supposed to have them due to NHTS rules. That said, not sure if it was added or perhaps it was...

I have almost completed in my recondition/paint of the 300 grill. Going on about 12 hours and 80% done, not wanting to do this again. Oil based paints applied. An effective traditional wax and buff would be difficult due to the corners and small spaces. Given the intricate design, was...

Have been trying to repaint the black insert lines on my 68’ 300 grill. Have tried a liquid tape product called Peel-tek with no success. Doesn't trim worth a darn. Have tried lightly brushing and then heavier. Seems to come off in pieces or in strands. Anybody had any success with this...

Would anybody have pictures of the front windshield support with the top down (best) to see what I am missing or should be looking for? When I sent this car for repaint, I don't think I received all the trim pieces back as they kind of lost they're, well short staff, short story.

Its been about 5 years since trying to get this car reassembled and I have lost or misidentifying the bumper mount bolts. Thought they were 1/2-13x1" however found pictures that showed the two supports per side are, or seem to be, bolted together which would make the 1" too short. If anybody...
