So I’ve got these very nice aluminum wheels on my 2008 Uplander and there’s some corrosion from where wheel weights were previously placed, and brake goo that sat on the wheel for too long. What’s the best way to clean these up? Scotch bright pad, magic eraser, some sort of metal scraper, some...

Are these trim pieces installed correctly, sitting on top of the dash pad? The windshield has been replaced at some point and I’m just curious if they put it all back together correctly or not. Thank you.

I had already guessed by the sloppily applied and grossly over-sprayed truck bed liner that there were some previous repairs made to the trunk at some point in the past. After this winters bout with way too much condensation, both in the cabin and in the trunk, I decided that on a nice warm...

So on my 66 Newport, I recently have a slight hiss coming from the brake pedal inside the car. It goes away when I apply the brakes. There is no rough idle or anything associated with a vacuum leak to the engine. I’ve had a brake booster fail before, but the symptoms it displayed were a loud...

The owner's manual for my 66 Newport says to arrange the front seat belts in an 'X' - anyone know why?

1966 Newport with variable speed wipers: I know it's foolish to expect modern day performance from 57 year wiper technology, but is there something I can do to speed up my slow wipers? I'm thinking something along the lines of taking the linkages apart and lubing them, new bushings or...

On my 66 Newport (provided I can even get them)?

I’ve got the three 7/16” nuts removed and the three 1/4” screws (indicated by the screw driver tip) removed that seem to be holding the retainer/plate to the housing, but the motor and wheel aren’t coming out. Can’t tell if I’ve missed something or it’s just stuck and I need to pull harder. Any...

The idle on my 66 Newport 383/2v gets slower and slower until it stalls. What do you think could cause this issue? Car ran fine when parked for the winter in November. Fuel in the tank and carb is non-ethanol 91 octane. Started it back up after sitting for three months, and now it doesn't...

Does anyone have a photo or dealer/promo picture of the ORIGINAL exhaust tailpipes, showing the "tips" on the 66 Newport/300/New Yorker with TNT440 engine factory dual exhaust that can confirm/deny that the exhaust tips match what TTI sells as option TD2 "TURNDOWNS w/ 5-DEGREE UPSWEEP" as seen...

So I'm just kind of nerding out a little bit, looking at the evolution of the 65-68 Chrysler Grille style elements. Thought I'd post what I notice, and would love to hear your thoughts and comments as well. 65 - retains the trapezoidal shape in the center section, as seen on the '64 Newport...

1966 Chrysler Newport with factory AC. The output of my blower motor seems weak compared to modern vehicles. I assume that's to be expected, but even with my 3 speed fan on full blast and the setting on DEFROST, the output of air to the windshield is weaker than I expect. I thought about...

Hey guys, I'm still battling too much condensation inside my '66 Newport. To recap - it's parked outdoors, on a concrete pad, under a cloth car cover. There is no roof over the car. Outdoor temperatures are hovering between 25F and 35F with occasional rain and snow. I think the car cover is...

Hi all I've got my '66 Newport parked (outdoors) for the winter. It has one of those grey car covers on it, can't remember the make. It's been pretty damp out lately, and it just started getting below freezing last week, and today we had our first actual snow. Last night, while putting snow...

Newer 383, 3 on the tree manual with new clutch. Bucket seats from ??? ~104K miles Owner - Bill Zimmerman, 509-218-1824 Spokane, WA $6500

Saw this at the car show today in Graham Washington. Looks pretty clean. Owner: Scott Dejka, 509 885 5587

Was at the car show today - does this belong to anyone here?

Hoping to ID this color. 66 Chrysler, tag code is L7R “red” but I think this might be “Aztec Red” or something. It’s the same as what’s on the dash. Not terrible, but has some rust and PO “stuff.” Anyone know the name and a source? Thank you! PS This is the rear window trim.

What is this part called and where can I get another one? I broke it trying to get it installed. What a nightmare.

'66 Newport, 11" x 2.75" front drums. all new drums, shoes, springs/hardware, wheel cylinders, hard brake lines, soft brake lines . . . Slight pull to the left on hard brake application. Not sure what might cause this when everything is brand new. Ideas? Already planning to tear down...
