Not AZ shiney, but far from MI scaley. I'd probably give it a once over with a pressure washer, then an oil treatment. Perhaps hit everything under the door moldings with a DA sander and zinc primer, then paint. Deal with everything above it next season. Looks like it spent time outside, but not...

Definitely an aftermarket top. Now you can see why the factory tops had those complicated rear moldings. If you just try to do a simple line, it looks like this: Barf.

https://www.facebook.com/share/1CP9Xth4TT/ This caught my eye at first because it is a near clone to my convertible. Then I remembered there was another near clone out in California so I wondered for a moment if this was at.. then I took a better look at that strange looking vinyl top. Does...

I just read through old posts and noticed this. I'm not bagging on anyone's kink, but I swear so many of the cars people get crazy for look like backyard kit cars to my eyes. One of them in the thread (probably worth a zillion dollars) had a scoop that looked like a piece of PVC pipe run through...

The other forum was largely "holiday scenes" so I decided to see how it would do compared to an actual photo. The is one I took with my family at our city hall. (This is the 75th anniversary of my city being chartered, so we are going to use my 1951 Imperial at a lot of events, parades, etc.)...

Another neat thing you can do it use it to create an image you remember in your head... For example, I was telling a story about how my HS had an open lunch and we used the time to street race at a nearby industrial park. I learned you need to fill in details or AI will do it for you. Apparently...

Another forum I'm on created a thread for members cars modified or created using AI. The emphasis on YOU is so this doesn't get loaded up with AI clickbait slop of "2026 Cuda coming soon", so please keep it to stuff you've actually made. I'll start with something I just did to clean up an old...

Were you there today? Because I was as well. Even took pics of the cars you posted about. This Imperial was on the local FMB for a while. Rot box, but lots of good parts. Even the seats could be saved with cleaning and a dye job.

Probably on route to/from a marshaling yard where they assemble loads of different vehicles for shipment to different regions. That's why there could be some end-of-1969 vehicles in the load.

There's another photo out there of train wrecked C bodies, but I think they are '69 models so they may have happened more than once, or this occurred right at model change over.

That is as I recall... I do have a photo somewhere. Was in similar condition when I saw it, except no engine. Destroyed for nothing more than the date and HP stamp. VIN was probably obliterated and restamped, otherwise why bother? The HP stamp means nothing on a rebuild.. I could build the same...

Sorry, should have updated but I guess that since nothing really changed I didn't think I had much to add... Building on the thermal shock idea to knock carbon loose, I am aware of what an issue carbon is for Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engines. (Fuel doesn't wash the backside of intake...

Can you show a close up of the grain? I suspect its the GM style (Lavante? Sp?) which is correct for a Salon. If so, I will order one.

Rude, but truthful translation: “Today I threw parts at the car, based on a bunch of persistent wives tales and nonsense guesses that people insist upon making, since it's not their time/money. I found that adding fuel (starting fluid) has a cause/effect on the problem. I thus have a fueling...

I would just do this before I dropped real money on a crummy aftermarket interface. https://www.autoweek.com/car-life/diy/a1852466/add-no-hassle-no-static-bluetooth-connectivity-your-factory-fm-radio-about-50/ (you can skip the whole power antenna part) Then just play whatever I wanted from...

I can't believe so many people are just telling you to throw parts at this (not only in an era of junk aftermarket parts, but also introducing potential new problems). What is this? Facebook? Backfiring through the carb is a sign you are lean, (fuel issue) backfiring through the muffler means...

That's why oil base paint works well. It doesn't make some kind of hard shell barrier that can trap rust, but at the same time it's will give you years of extra life before scaling.

I have the remains of a driver's side outside mirror base installed on my survivor 1951 Imperial. At first I was inclined to think it was original, but I'm having a heck of a time trying to find a photo of that era Mopar with a 'correct' mirror. Now I think it could either be aftermarket or from...
