    1968 Chrysler 300 Ignition Switch Lamp Location

    As I continue down the path of rejuvenating my '68 300 I have a couple head scratchers I could use some help with. Does anyone have a picture or diagram of where the "Starter and Ignition Switch Lamp" mounts in the dash? It was dangling when I bought the car but it does work (if I ground it)...

    1968 300 Dash Wiring Project

    I have the engine bay wiring mostly buttoned up and to finish testing everything I need to move under the dash so I pulled the cluster out yesterday. First task. The fuel gauge. I know the sender had been replaced recently (and I know someone tried or did jack the car up by the gas tank...

    Correct Crank Pulley w/o A/C

    Happy Friday folks! Looking to fix the wobble in my crankshaft pulley. And since it looks like the wrong pulley I thought I would replace it instead of repair it. Seemed easy enough until I started researching pulleys. As you can see the pulley has three grooves but my car only needs two...

    Engine Harness Rework

    Pulled the engine and front end lighting harness out of my '68 300. Every wire in the car seems to have been cut and taped back together. Luckily no evidence of a fire but it looked like a real possibility. The firewall connectors look good so that will be reused after being cleaned up...

    1969 Charger Hub Interchange

    Hey all, Does anyone know if a front hub from a 1969 charger with 11" brakes would fit on a 1968 Chrysler 300? I believe I need a new hub and found a set from a '69 charger that look like they should work but thought to check with the folks here before driving out to pick them up. Thanks...

    Headlight Cover Motor Repair

    Working on my '68 300. Waiting for some parts to come in to reassemble the brakes and heater box so I decided to look at the headlight cover motor. The wiring is essentially missing from the motor back so I will need to figure out where the wire runs. Looking at my FSM it looks like it should...

    Time for the Heater Box Rebuild

    Next on the list was to pull the heater box for inspection and rebuild. The heater hoses were disconnected and bypassed under the hood so I suspected a leaky core which is exactly what I found. I also found the home of the mouse that I found inside of the drivers side stub frame. All...

    Rear Seat Belt Help

    Looking to install seat belts in my '68 300 Convertible. None were installed in the car so I don't know what I should be looking to add. Should there be two or three seat belts (I prefer three)? And what are the appropriate anchors to use? Option A: 2 Point Lift Latch Seat Belts |...

    Brake Service and Front Drums Mismatched

    This is just as much of a venting post as a it is me just trying to document the things I am doing to my brand new to me 300. I went through the brake system and replaced the master cylinder, front wheel cylinders, new springs and added self adjusters, which were missing in the front but not in...

    Convertible Top Operation

    Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! Looking for some advice. I replaced the Hydraulic cylinders for my convertible top. The old ones were both leaking and the system was clearly run dry. After plumbing the new cylinders and filling with ATF I bled the system several times then reinstalled...

    '68 300 Stub Frame Repair

    Been reading through previous threads about repairing or replacing the stub frame. I knew when I bought the car there was a rust issue in the stub frame, under the drivers door (Green arrow in first pic). The rest of the stub frame seems very solid but this area looks like it was maybe hit or...

    Thermoquad Rebuild and Throttle Linkage Setup

    Starting to dig into the fuel system on my '68 300. The 440 has an Edelbrock Performer intake and a Carter Thermoquad 6518s from a "Chrysler Industrial" application, guessing an RV. Once she is running she starts and idles okay but the Carb is definitely in need of a rebuild as every moving...

    Proper Bucket Seat Installation

    While I wait for the power steering pump rebuild kit to arrive I started tackling the front bucket seats. They were seemingly rigged in place with whatever nuts and bolts could be found. I ordered the seat mount bolt kit which comes with some rubber bushings (Mounts seat bracket to floor pan)...

    Power Steering Gear Leak - '68 300

    First major task at hand with my 300, fix the power steering leak. After cleaning up the old grease and oil I found where the PS fluid is leaking from (hopefully the only leak). It looks like a job that may be tackled without removing the steering gear. It seems the two nuts that hold the...
