    67 Newport Radiator replacement, reusing fittings

    So I'm in the middle of replacing my radiator. I pulled the old transmission line fittings off the old radiator and cleaned them up. They look great, but before reinstalling onto the new radiator do I use any goop to seal them? There was so much crud on the old one, I can't tell for sure...

    Vapor lock and flooding on 383

    My car has been running great lately, or so I thought. Tonight I had to run a few errands and decided to drive the Newport. I drove about 7 minutes to the first store, was inside for only 5 minutes. Came out and it fired right up no problem. Then I drove about 100 yards to the next store and...

    I've got a leaking freeze plug on the passenger side of my Newport. It's not bad by any means. But it smells terrible. I'm worried about driving it and it blowing out completely. Any suggestions? It's roughly between the center two spark plugs. Not sure if it's possible to replace without...

    So as much as I love beating on this dead horse... 67 Newport base, 383, auto. The car came with a new sending unit installed but the gauge never read full.

    Factory exhaust dimensions on '67 Newport base w/383

    I'm looking to replace the muffler on my car with something better than the old stock muffler. I put on a 4 barrel last fall but I just don't have the $800 to have duals put on right now so I thought I could swap out the single muffler to get it flowing a little bit better. Whats the pipe size...

    Fuel leaking from fuel tank vent, sounds like coffee maker...???

    Last night I finally was able to take my car for a drive after the intake/carb swap. I drove it for about twenty minutes or so. Not going over 30mph, but quite a few burnouts. When I got home and garaged it, I went and opened the hood to check everything out and that's when I heard a weird...

    Here's some random parts that are taking up space. Will separate items, unless youd like the whole lot. Sending unit works just not a correct reading on the gauge. Starter relay is new in box. Not sure what it fits, I bought it for my '67 Newport but it's missing a terminal so the seller...
