    Anyone jack up half a car?

    It crossed my mind if it would be possible to jack half the car. I need to change the muffler, which is on passenger side. Thought about jacking in the middle of the pass side frame rail, and putting stands next to pass side wheels (on frame). This would leave the weight, and pressure on the...

    ...in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale........

    My muffler, that is. The car backfired, neighbor came running out in some kind of "tactical stance", ready for battle. My oval muffler is now round. Can't seem to find a replacement listing online. I think it's maybe 25" long plus collars, 2 1/4 pipes, offset inlet, center outlet. "Standard...

    Which timing chain set?

    I'm doing my radiator service. Since I'm in the neighborhood, thought I'd stop by and change out the 50 year old plastic timing gear. In looking online, it's asking about a "3 bolt" or "1 bolt" camshaft gear. I don't know which one I have. 1970 Chrysler 300 w/ 440/350H.P. "TOC" I'm...

    Transmission mount leaving bracket

    I foolishly allowed someone else to replace my motor and transmission mounts. When under the car today, I see the transmission mount has spit half way out of it's bracket. The bonded rubber with the oval shaped steel shell has a flange on one end to keep it from falling "into" the stamped...

    My engine is being a jerk!

    I have been gradually working through the issues on my new to me 1970 300, which was inop for 30 years. The car now starts and runs reliably. Ive been very gentle driving it around the neighborhood, just light throttle, no W.O.T. starts. That's a good thing, as the driver side motor mount was...

    Trying to find location of the harness plug

    That connects my instrument panel to the rear body lighting harness. 1970 300. There's a 6 cavity plug that carries the rear tail/stop/marker/ back up lights. The manual shows a drawing of the instrument panel end. There is no drawing of the body harness, only a schematic. Next to the plug is...

    Instrument panel lights

    ...... are dim, on my 1970 300. It's really hard to see the speedometer. I see a couple small lights under the brow that shine on the speedometer. Are there any bulbs inside, or behind the needle? Could be that the bulbs just have a crust of 50 years of dirt. Battery voltage is good, at...

    What was the factory steel wheel size........

    on my '70 300 convertible? Mine is missing it's spare tire/wheel. I know it's 15", not sure of width. I think I read somewhere that lots of cars from lots of years all used the same steel wheel size?

    Heat water valve questions

    My '70 300 has the four port red plastic vacuum operated water valve. I understand that the theory of operation is that it's controlled by vacuum. Varying the amount of vacuum with the slide control changes the valve from closed at "cool" to open at "hot". When mine is all the way at cool, i...

    WANTED 1970 Seatback release knob

    This is a chrome knob that has a little set screw on the underside to lock it onto the lever. Pulling the lever up allows you to fold the seatback forward for rear seat access.

    Painting over stains on white vinyl seats?

    The previous owner set something black (rubber?) on the back seat. I scrubbed the whole interior, but these stains remain. Could I spray just the stained areas with some type of vinyl spray, or would it look worse? Maybe spray the whole seat bottom?

    1970 Convertible Body Trim

    I want to re paint my car. I was thinking of removing a lot of the chrome, stainless, and aluminum trim myself, with care, rather than having the kid at the paint shop tear it all off. They're probably familiar with new cars, but not one this old. Has anyone done this "prep" before, and how...

    Convertible boot mounting screws confusion

    I just removed the convertible boot for some sewing repairs. When I went to unscrew the channeled rail that holds the boot to the seat back, all kinds of screws came out. Some are self tapping sheet metal screws, and some are machine screws. I did see two machine screws that go into the...

    1970 headlight switch replacement

    The headlight, dimmer, and flasher switches on my 300 are all acting up. How do I get them out, I assume pull the lower dash trim, and do all work from behind? Looks like switches are attached with screws?

    How to service A/C?

    The Air Conditioning is inop on my new 1970 300. It's lost it's charge. Due to the "preciousness" of R-12, I want to service the system "once and done", to whatever reasonable extent that is possible. Was thinking of new compressor bearings, shaft seal, oil change, and drier. At that...

    Where to drill?

    I want to run some alarm wiring through the firewall. Is there any pass through or grommet there that I could use, or do I have to cut a new hole? Also, looking for a nice waterproof boot to finish that hole.
