That rear window rust can be rampant ... As cbarge said, you may likely to have to cut, form new metal and weld it back on. I would suggest finding a donor car for the metal part you want to replace, it will be easier this way.

Hi everyone, I've got a strange heavy steel reinforcement patch in the trunk of my '70 Sport Fury. It's only on one side (driver's side), and it's located just behind the rear stop light, on top of a seam between two trunk floors. I've taken a picture of the driver's side (where the patch is)...

I looked into the parts manual, and there is a unique number for all models, so I guess tilt or no-tilt column does not make a difference.

Hello, I'm unable to check. Will a '79 Volaré ignition and door locks/keys kit fit my '70 Sport Fury ? Thanks.

Yes, sorry, I meant a "push washer". Here's a picture of it. The panel stud is 1/4" and the OD is 3/4".

Hello everyone, Is there a safe way to remove the push nut retainer without damaging them? I'm specifically thinking about the large round retainers that are used on the studs of the rear bumper panel on my '70 Sport Fury (the panel where "PLYMOUTH" is written). I would like to keep them...

I tried the vibrating multi-tool, with a soft scraping attachment. In fact I even bought mine just for that. But it's not really working much more efficiently than the other techniques ...

Yes I've read about it too, and I even saw a video of a guy using dry ice. It seems indeed very efficient, but as I do not have a rotisserie, I'm working from under the car, which can be complicated for some techniques, including dry ice. However, I tried "freeze spray" (some sort of compressed...

Thanks a lot for all your feedback on different techniques. As I see it, the secret ingredient is ... elbow grease and patience. My car is canadian built. That would explain indeed the big amount of undercoating I'm facing.

Hello everyone, Does someone has a good technique to remove the underbody protection (the tar-like material) ? I've looked at several videos on youtube, and then tested "Goo Gone", "Goo Gone Pro Power", heat, mechanical scraping, wire wheel, and any combinations of all of those ... but it's a...

Thanks, the job is done. There was another pair of bolts inside the trunk, near the opening lid. So that makes a total of 2 bolts per side on the frame rail, and 2 bolts per side on the inside of the trunk.

Well I just did ... Had to paint the upper lips too, because I do not know when I will be able to weld (or glue) the new floorpan.

Hello, I'm scratching my head on how to remove the rear bumper on my '70 Sport Fury. I looked in the Service Manual, but they do not explain it. At first, I thought it was going to be like on my '58 : remove bumper bolts, and voila. But they are not accessible from behind. At least not all of...

Well, here is the first step done ...

Additional questions: - how much were used and where (I have only one left on the right side) ? - where can I find replacement ones ? Thank you.

Yes they are located at the lower edge. Thank you !

Hello everyone, After removing the rear window of my '70 Sport Fury, I noted 2 types of clips. The first one are the trim clip, but I do not know the use of the other (in the photo below). Can someone tell me ? Thnak you.

Yes, I know about that metal panel adhesive. It is used even in new car manufacturing, in some areas. I've already seen it at a car assembly plant (I work in the automobile industry). And they claim it is as strong as a weld.

And by "flange area", I imagine you're speaking of either one of the 2 solutions below, right ?

Hello, I'm restoring the trunk floorpan of my '70 Plymouth. There was already a big chunk missing in the center. After applying wire wheel, more holes appeared, but that was no surprise ... I'm going to do the metal fabrication myself, but I'm not experienced (actually it will be my first time...
