    Making progress

    Well it's been a long time since I've posted here. Life definitely caught up with me but I'm still ever so determined to drive my 68 someday. As fate would have it, my wife and I are expecting our 2nd baby now. This has been a great excuse to put the project into overdrive and bust out the big...

    ‘68 Update - She’s CLOSE to her maiden voyage!

    Long time no update but resuming work on the interior. Got some more welding done! This is where the seats would be going, there was a large gaping hole and paper thin floor here where water had sat and also where it was pierced by a forklift.. Not the best pics but it's still in progress. My...

    Dashboard Woes

    Interesting side note, I work at a large cable manufacturing plant here in Santa Maria. You may have seen our enormous spools of Cable that say "O K O N I T E" strapped to a flatbed on the freeway before. These wires are just a very very small scale version of the insulated wires and cables we...

    Dashboard Woes

    Making some progress, I was able to separate the harness from the frame. It was a badly tangled mess. There are some crunchy wires in here, but for the most part they are still very nice and malleable. I will have the dash frame sand blasted and possibly powder coated. Debating on if it's...

    Dashboard Woes

    Wow! I seem to have trouble getting notifications from FCBO (got a new phone, just haven't got it set up right.) This is a goldmine of information, thanks to everyone for your responses! @Big_John, I think I will go that route, I like how it's mapped out and easy to understand! Will post pics...

    Dashboard Woes

    Long-time no speak for myself here on the forums. Despite multiple attempts to sell the car for money I just can't seem to get an acceptable offer! Did have one amazing offer from a fellow member here for a trade, but in the end I feel like it comes down to me needing to finish the car if I...

    For Sale PRICE REDUCED - $7.5K 68 Chrysler New Yorker Project OPEN TO TRADES

    In CA there are workarounds and some loopholes if you have someone who knows the system! I agree, I should've got a title sooner. All it needs is VIN verification, which I was going to have a CHP friend do but unfortunately again never got around to it. Concerning the title, I also considered...

    For Sale PRICE REDUCED - $7.5K 68 Chrysler New Yorker Project OPEN TO TRADES

    Thank you! I would absolutely love to see it go to someone else on the site but I know a project can be a hard sell. Granted this is somewhat of a different project!

    So I bought this one today.

    You could say that again! I'm 3 years behind on the NY. I got it 5 years ago in January.

    14x7 Supremes

    Supremes should work, I've seen them on 68s. Just make sure they aren't Reverse, or else they will rub. They need to be standard offset.

    My Son's First Sled

    While it's not a C Body, it's definitely kid approved Seems he's taken quite a liking to the old cars as his dad and Papa have. Now to make sure he stays a Mopar man ! Can't blame him for loving any of the old iron though, here he's sitting in my dad's 1950 Torpedo Back Chevy Fleetline. Any...

    We've lost Locumob - Scott.

    Wow, after sometime away from these forums - this is NOT what I wanted to hear. Hit me like a train just now.. Scott was WAY cool, and he and I chatted much throughout my years fixing up my 68. Truly one who always encouraged me to keep going. Going to miss seeing him on the forums:( May he rest...

    Tips for a young guy? What’s next?

    Don't be like me and try and fix too much at a time, now I'm stuck with mine in pieces! You're off to a good start. These guys are all giving great advice. I'm now going to be 24 y/o, but bought my old girl a month before I turned 19.
