Ah thanks guys - Yeah its a 2 door 71 newport royal with a factory 360 Open to any frames you guys might have kicking around? - Thanks!

its so strange - the other side is perfect and the rest of the crossmember and everything is is in great shape. It looked like it may have been hit but the way all the sheet metal is, its hard to believe. unless the entire car had a respray. I'll try digging into it this weekend and see what...

Feeling out some options. Just found a huge crack in the front of my subframe. Before deciding to pull it out and patch it. Would like to know what’s out there for what price. I’m driving up the west coast to Vancouver in December so be interested in anything between San Francisco and...

Well Guys - been chipping away at hte Newport dropped the tank cleaned it out as well as i could got a lot of loose debris out but it feels very solid, new fuel pump, new master cylinder, new tminig set (yet to install) So i had the front right wheel off replacing the brake lines and wow -...

The T37 is been going solid - im really in love with this car. Its just oddball enough that it stands out among the usual cars too. I'm so pleased i painted it the original Quezal Gold and really happy personally with my own efforts since it was my first time doing full body and paint. Its not...

Ha very cool - yeah the Charger is patiently waiting. Gotta get this Newp up and running as a nice cruiser and then will really dive into a full resto on the Charger. Thanks for following along man! Unfortunately i hit a pretty big bump with the Newport this weekend. I'll post up my...

Yeah cheapest i found was this JEGS 20472: Timing Chain Set for 1956-1990 Small Block Chrysler 273-360 | JEGS - there was one for about 30 bucks but it was listed for a big block.

Yeah ? - i just got a generit jegs brand. I wont be revving or beating on this car. It cost me a hundred bucks. So spending more than %50 of my entire purchase price on a timing set is rough enough already :D

Hey Guys - coming up with lots of B body stuff when im searching for Brake master cyls. Anyone have a dorman product or similar part # ? its a 71 with a 360 and a brake booster. Just looking for the master itself. Cheers.

Fantastic just ordered a new timing set. Thanks guys!

Hey Guys - working on getting my '71 360 up and running, its low mileage and instead of peeling of the timing cover - thought id just ask. Did the 71' 360's have the nylon timing gear set? If so ill just order up a new set but would be much easier to ask than look. Thanks!

Whats up guys! Well finally wrapped up my other project and 2 weekends ago i found myself at home on a saturday morning with nothing to work on. SHOCK! - Unwrapped the old newport and dragged it out of the lean to. I'm going through a bunch of stuff and getting it ready for driver status...

oh also, whats the deal with that Decal about the carb, is it some kind of dealer install? Seems strange it has that little note with part number, phone number and car model/make taped ontop of what looks like some kind of data card. Completely new to this Chrysler stuff, so apologies for the...

Fantastic idea, the car really wouldn't take much work to get to that stage. a decent intake and a 4 bbl, 2 rear wheel cylinders and a set of tires and a cleaned out fuel system. I bet it would make the whole trip. Yeah nothing nicer than an old car with an unmolested radio! In other news...

I knew id be able to get it running fairly quick but i was really surprised with how well it ran, minus that horrible 2bbl carb. No smoke, no oil burning... not even a dry lifter sound, fascinating! People were trying to buy it because its a Challenger! lol , i have to say i had more people...

I was laughing that it might be the first burnout the car has ever done in its life! Pretty cool. I'll be pulling the motor at some point and maybe throw some fresh set of gaskets and ill check bearing clearances, and if need be throw a new set in. I enjoy driving my cars thats for sure...

Well said! Been trying to catch up on your thread.. holy 165 pages batman! It sure is nice to look back and have that feeling of accomplishment of how much you've learned and how far you've come. Cheers

Wow! That car is gorgeous!!! I love the color combo!! Very nice!! I really do agree on those wheels. I finally was able to throw together some of the Video from the Trip. You may find it a little boring, but most of this stuff i do for my personal photo album/scrapbook of a car. I've...

Yeah , including meals for all 3 of us, roach motel fees, trailer rental and all that, it was a little over 3k. But it was my Vacation. So i look at it that way also and not on the cost of the car itself. I Stumbled upon this video.... i figure you guys have probably seen it before. Its...

Thanks again everyone, it sure is one of the coolest things thats happened to me. Yeah, i'm not seeing 22's and flake paint in this cars future. No need to worry about that lol. Speaking of time capsule. The glove box is mysteriously un breachable. I have the key. Well at least what i...
