Well, even an old hound dog finds a bone, and gets lucky now and then.. I got the electric pump on, its a nice quality unit ( The wirenuts are temporary, had to see if this fixed it as quick as possible ha )... pumps fuel nice and KNOCK IS GONE I did not drill a hole in the frame, i was able...

Went to town, and back again.. decided to go with high quality, made in USA K&N pump... going to plumb it, wire it up quick, and heat up the block again to see if this takes care of the tapping noise... There is no point in working on the car any longer if it needs major engine work, there is...

Pulled the mechanical pump out... fuel pump rod seems ok idk... I have done some research on the rods etc... I have decided to go with an electric pump, and see if that eliminates this issue. I am trying to stay on a low budget with this car, and would like to get it on the road for less than...

Thank you... I will keep that in mind.. my car seems mostly complete.. but i do for sure need a 14" rim for a spare tire? Would you be willing to ship a rim without a tire?

Gonna sit by the fire and think a while

So the car starts and idles nice... all the pulleys are tight ( water pump etc ) there is a light tapping noise at idle... the gauge shows good oil pressure.. oil clean etc... water circulates , temp good.. no leaks... I took a 4 foot hollow plastic handle from a paint roller ( like a mop...

Well, i got the pump on... squirted a little gas down the carb and it fired up... took a couple times, and some rough running for a bit, but then it smoothed out and ran ok... i am not too happy as there is a light "knock" or tapping noise coming from the front of the motor it seems ugh

Well, as far as i can tell, my no fuel issue should be the fuel pump. I can suck gas manually from the tank. They have one in town... Going to get it, and putting some heat lamps and heaters under the car... still 0 in my garage.. really do not want to fire it up when the block is this cold, so...

hahaha - that should fix it, a little Holy water never hurt.. It was a close squeeze fitting both of those beasts in the garage... only one 9 foot door so one car sits sideways... I can't open the driver's door on the Newport... I wanted to get a pic of the fender tag, but not yet, the laptop...

What a spectacular car... I really liked the 62 when i first saw it... To me it seems like a "bridge" between the 50's cars and the 60's cars in a way.. I can see both decades of car styling when looking at the 62 imho

Thank you all for the feedback... Let's see... The car was a Craigslist find somewhat locally ( WI ) from a very nice family... I do not know the whole story, but from some stuff found in the car, it seems to have been in Brush Colorado (a nice dry area) from its birth in 1962 until sometime in...

Hello, it is too cold in Wisconsin today, my friend

Thank you - One with the hood down, and one with it's garage mate a 65 Buick Wildcat... will i get banned for posting the buick pic? You guys should cut me a little slack since i finally wised up enough to buy a Chrysler right...

Not sure if i have this in the correct forum... The car is a 62 Chrysler Newport... Not running yet, the interior is out, but seems to be a pretty nice car... I am new to Chrysler's, mostly had chevies growing up... But i always admired the 50's - 60's Mopars, so i feel very lucky to have found...
