    727 damaged line. Which part is this?

    Hey folks, finally got some time to look at the cause of the trans fluid puddling under the car. Seems this line melted again the exhaust. I must have not noticed and forgot to tie it back when replacing the exhaust. Can this part be bought? What options for replacement? 65 Polara...

    Wheel balancer grab at the yard sale

    I picked this up today. Has a nice bubble and I thought $30 was reasonable. The fella was a retired body man. Had a ton of chains and pullers and things to grab sheet metal and what not. I grabbed a balancer and a tach/dwell unit.

    Help identify this wire

    I have a disconnected blue wire under the dash right next to the fuse box. I’m just trying to figure out where it goes. It’s only got enough slack to plug into the fuse box or something right next to it. I tried a random open connector on the fuse box a while back and it prevented the engine...

    Setting timing - erratic vacuum reading

    I’m trying to set up timing and carb using these instructions as they’ve been suggested before and seem solid. Vacuum Engine Timing | MILEPOSTS Garage (Tech Tips) http://tvmoparclub.com/files/tech/Mopar%20Timing.pdf Car seems to drive great but the too lean smell is killing me. I’m using the...

    Cool wagon. FD

    Ran into Dave at the local Napa. I said I had a 65 Polara. He said he had a 65 polara. I said, “mine is red, 2 door”. He said he has a red wagon, former Fire department vehicle. We decided to meet up and take some pictures. He also has a 65 Fury. Hopefully we’ll see him around the forums...

    Horn stuck on, some dash lights out too

    Horn won’t quit blowing. This is the opposite problem most encounter when dealing with horn issues. I have confirmed that the wire running up the column is indeed grounded to the column without engaging the horn switch but nothing obvious is pinching the wire running up the steering column...

    Good year Power Streak II

    Are these old wheel/tires worth putting on the shelf and keeping? I’m getting ready to get new wheels and tires and one option would be to just put new rubber on these 14s. I figured there may be some collector value as these seem to pop up for sale occasionally. Anyhow I have 5 of these...

    65 Polara Thread

    I figured I’d create a thread here as I’m getting the car road worthy again. It hasn’t been driven since the early nineties. Next up is the rear end. I pulled the rear axle seals out today. The drivers side is looking pretty decent but the passenger side has some grooves you can see and feel...

    Locked keys in the trunk

    After searching everywhere for my keys I narrowed the location to the trunk of the polara. Luckily my son was able to squeeze in after removing the rear seat and recover them. Thought I would share some pics of the adventure and some items I found in the trunk and seats. Getting past the...

    Oil pump prime failure

    I decided to prime the oil pump tonight since I'm getting ready to fire the engine up for the first time since I've had the car. Engine is a 426 SW in my 65 polara. I began spinning the oil pump counterclockwise and felt nothing for more than a minute. I understand that I should be able to...

    Got a brake kit, here is what doesn't fit

    I set out to convert the drums to disks. I bought the kit from Leed Brakes 2 years ago, and I'm finally getting around to putting everything together. The new master cylinder uses two 3/16 inch lines with a larger fitting routed to the rear brakes. The original single pot used a 1/4" line to...

    Exhaust manifold to exhaust pipe bolts too long

    I got a TTI exhaust for the car last year and I'm finally getting back to putting it together. Anyhow, on the driver's side the bolts TTI supplied are longer than my old factory bolts and I cannot get one of the two bolts to fit, unless I put it on from the bottom up. I'm thinking this isn't a...

    Removing exhaust from manifold

    Just ordered and received a new TTI exhaust from stock manifolds back. Any tips on removing the exhaust from the manifold. One bolt is real hard to get a socket on from under the car due to the bend in the exhaust. I’m thinking It would be much simpler to remove the manifolds. Also the spark...

    New leaf springs shorter?

    Got new springs from Espo. Initial looks seem shorter, even considering more arch. Any reason to be worried? They seem nearly 2 inches shorter . I haven’t actually tried to install them yet while I blast and powder coat the brackets.

    Steering gear removal.

    Need some advise on removing the steering gear on my 65 polara. It is power steering. FSM says to loosen the worm shaft to steering shaft coupling clamp bolt, and then loosen the steering column to instrument panel bracket and pull up on the column assembly until the coupling is clear. I...

    Pre-bent tubing problem.

    I got new fuel lines from Inline tube for the 65 polara, and the tube from gas tank to mid-frame was 3 inches too long. I sent pics and they told me their tech would look at it. After a lengthy wait I was contacted and told my tubing (according to the pics of the original I sent) matched that...

    Where do these pins go? 742 SG case

    So, I pulled the center section out of the 65 polara and out came 2 small pins. I honestly don't know where they go, but one fell out onto my chest when I pulled the center section and the other was in the housing. They are small pins with a round head, maybe 3/8 inch or so and not threaded...
