    MOPARs at the Red Barns 2023

    Anyone going to the Mopar show at the Gilmore museum on the 22nd? I only saw one of my vintage Furies last year (a really nice '67). Several 65-66's but it seemed like a lot of the folks there had late model Challengers.

    Proper length for 68 Fury PS return line

    Hey all, I'm still dinking around with this leaking power steering return line fitting but I see no reason for it to do so. The fitting and o-rings are new and the mating surface is clean and blemish free. Is there a standard length that I could've screwed up some of internal mojo with by...

    Transmission fluid pool near valve cover

    My uneventful water pump, etc. replacement last weekend appears to be a short term victory. Last night after a short trip to Napa I discovered a pool of transmission fluid from a weep hole (?) on top of the engine near the valve cover.. The FSM doesn't appear to mention this. Does anyone...

    '68 Fury convertible top cover question

    Hey All, Last year at a "Cars & Coffee" one of the guys running the show noticed that my snap on boot cover wasn't connected to my seat back. As it is now the vinyl piece the top rests on in the trunk is pressed into the metal channel with a rubber strip (I removed it a little to take a look)...

    '68 Fury 318 stock radiator replacement with Cold Case

    Hey All, Looking to replace my radiator asap this spring and since I've never done one before I thought I'd ask in the hopes that someone may have a similar setup. I currently have a Chrysler 2898 038 18398 (18x22, no a/c) which appears functionally identical to the Cold Case MOP751A. In...

    68 Fury 318 - what is this?

    Hey All, I know I saw a pic of this somewhere here months ago but I never bookmarked it and I've looked through my searchable FSM but don't really know what I'm looking for. What is this thing below my alternator and is it supposed to leak around the top circular part? (maybe only in cold...

    '68 Fury PS return control valve leaking

    When I had my mechanic fix a bunch of things this spring they left the power steering leak issues as an "that's easy enough you should be able to tackle it" thing. Unfortunately as evidenced in my other posts I think they greatly overestimated my abilities since I know how to change oil and...

    '68 Fury 318 PS high pressure hose replacement

    Tracking down one final slow leak that appears to be coming from the PS pressure hose but am running into some weird issues, and apparently I'm one of the few folks with a Federal pump (just replaced, brand new) on a 318. Here's the weirdness: - The replacement hoses I'm finding are all...

    68 Fury odometer way too high

    So I bought this thing with just over 117k miles on it and noticed earlier today that it's now registering over 134k, which is ludicrous. Is the odometer crapping out on me? Minus the 300 mile trip home last November when she was stored for the winter I've *maybe* put 1000 miles on it since...

    68 Fury fender emblem removal

    So I picked up a set of reproduction fender emblems but after removing the inner wheel well I'm not sure what I'm looking at. A round nut? How do I remove these? Thought I'd ask before I start digging with a screwdriver and breaking things.

    Power steering pump replacement

    Hi All, One more thing to replace before the Fury is 100% operational and leak-free (for now) but even though this appears to be an easy swap I thought I'd better verify a few things. I know it will take 3x longer than expected, regardless. - Is there any trick to releasing belt tension or...

    Crankcase breather options

    For any folks that are using an open element air filter (on a 318 if that matters), what kind of crankcase breather oil cap do you use if not one with a vent tube? I currently have the standard clip in style like this (pic) but I'm pretty clueless if I need clip in or if a push-in will work...

    Opinions on ethanol treatments

    I had a nice gentleman at a cruise-in yesterday highly recommend something for ethanol treatment such as Sta-Bil's "360 Protection". I had never heard of this, any opinions? I'm all for preventing damage but have just been using premium with a lead additive bottle (318/non-hardened seats) and...

    68 fury 318 fuel sending unit - 3/8" vs 5/16"

    Is there an easy way to tell what fuel sending unit is installed, 3/8" or 5/16" without putting it on a lift? Based on engine size, etc.?

    Fury fender emblems - plastic cover?

    Hey folks, Is there a plastic cover over these emblems or is that a part of the emblem itself? The replacement threads I see here referring to sites like emblemagic.com don't appear to have a clear cover to them. And that leads to question 2, how do you remove these- does the front wheel well...

    New turn signal switch - cornering lights?

    I'm needing to find a replacement turn signal switch and I've narrowed it down to one with and one without "cornering lights", which I admit I have no idea what those are. Can someone enlighten me please? It's for a 68 Fury. The repair manual doesn't list them and Google isn't any help. Thanks!

    Brake switch removal

    Hey All, I think I've narrowed down my brake light issue to the switch itself since I only get brakes on the right but if I jiggle the switch I then only get them on the left. Bulbs are all new, fuses are fine and the pink wire appears to be intact. It looks like this, how do I remove it...

    68 "decorative" horn cap?

    I know this is pretty nit-picky but has anyone seen a more "decorative" steering wheel horn cap available for the 68 (Fury)? It seems odd to me that the 66's had such cool chrome ones with the inlaid emblem while we get a plain.. Ding Dong snack cake.

    Carburetor and oil breather question

    Sorry All, a couple rudimentary questions that I can't seem to find answers to anywhere else via Google, YouTube, or service manual. - I have the 68 318 and would like to swap the air cleaner to a round style without the snorkel, but I see that there's a breather tube to the oil filler cap...

    round yellow fog lights?

    Does anyone know if they still make the round yellow, plug in fog lights these days? I've been searching for weeks and can't find any, although I know I've seen them on other vintage vehicles cruising around over the years. I really don't want to convert to LEDs. Thanks!
