Due to a divorce agreement, I have to sell my beloved "Bess". The odo says 30K but I believe now she's 130K via VIN search. Upgraded to front disc brakes and electronic ignition. All belts/hoses/spark plug wires replaced. Approximately 15k on tires (6 years old) Everything works except: gear...

Hello Everyone, Time to replace the ignition switch on Bess. Got it unplugged easy enough, but the Autopilot knob not so much. If it's in the repair manual I must have missed it Any help, as always, greatly appreciated.

Bess's ('66 Imp) map light won't shut off. Just finished up on some dash work( had to remove ash tray and radio to access climate control bulbs). Hoping I knocked something loose? Any thoughts?

Happy 4th everyone, Amp meter is dead. I recently had to pull the instrument panel because the odometer broke and the clock wasn't working. Got it back, hooked it all up, applied power and poof, blew a fusible link and no start. Took a look at the backside of the fuse box, and sure enough...

Putting Bess's ('66 Imp) instrument panel back together (odometer and clock repair). Broke the thin wire that operates gear selector. I figure I can find the wire, but is there a way to properly roll those ends?

Bess has decided not to age past 30,000. Anybody have experience repairing these?

Evening everyone, Need some wisdom. Low mileage 1966 Imperial with power drum brakes. Long story short, she pulled RIGHT when I first got her. Turned out she had a warped right drum. leaking LEFT brake cylinder, and suspect brake hoses. Replaced: 1. Front brake cylinders. 2. All three brake...

Does anyone have a parts list to build a front disc "kit" from compatible MOPARS for a 1966 Imp? Drums are getting scarce or VERY expensive, and I'm making contingency plans.

I actually need a right FRONT drum in good condition, but hard to locate. However, it's my understanding the hub can be pressed out and a rear drum used in its' place.

Looking for rear drums, '66 Imperial.

Hello all, I recently purchased the Ignitor 2 for Bess (kit# 91381A). Now, according to the instructions, it is recommended - but not required - to remove the ballast resistor for this thing to work. I have checked on various forums and it appears folks have been doing it either way with...

Getting Bess ready for a road trip this week, and I was trying to smooth out this annoying little, tiny, almost stumble out of her idle. Doesn't affect drive-ability, just bugs the ever living you know what out of me. So, I broke out my timing light, my vacuum gauge, and my Sears Craftsman...

Is it normal for an rpm meter to "hunt" a little bit, or are they generally rock steady? Same question for vacuum gauges. https://photos.app.goo.gl/X1NPxKDtheGBDfbu9

Hello everybody, Issue 1: Bess has developed an intake leak. Any tips on gasket choice/installation? Issue 2: She's going through condensers faster than I can get through a box of Ho-Ho's. Could this be a symptom or could I be looking at quality control issues?

My '66 Imp was blowing oil (I thought) out of my breather cap and onto my exhaust manifold, creating periodic smoke episodes. PCV? Clogged breather cap? Stuck rings? New pcv valve and some seafoam. No change. What I had noticed was the oil collected on the forward sparkplug wire separator, the...

Well, bit the bullet and plunked down a chunk of change to have a " custom made"relay harness assembled for my Imp. I know it isn't that difficult, but I am...electrically challenged... Anyway, they showed up in a reasonable amount of time. Directions were generic, but okay. Installed it, low...

Bess has been on a tear lately, but I won't go into all that right now. Here's my latest "challenge ": Brake lights/turn signals work UNTIL I turn on the running lights/headlights. I did recently replace the headlight switch and connector due to China Syndrome. Any ideas? Bad ground?? OK, OK...

There is a noticeable decrease in my idle when I pull out the headlight switch on my '66 Imp. Thoughts?

While working on Bess's ('66 Imp) exhaust manifold leak issue, I noticed the ps pulley was not aligned properly with the rest. I figured it might be the ps bracket that bolts up to the ac compressor and then on down to the first stud on the driver's side exhaust manifold. I also consulted the...

When I picked her up in York, Nebraska, she was quiet as a church mouse. The pre-purchase inspection revealed an exhaust leak around the heat riser, so I asked the shop in town there to just cut it off. For reasons unknown to me, they decided to take both exhaust manifolds off and put gaskets...
