Good Day All This thread sparked a memory of an article about the center grille light. The Dec 1985 issue of the WPC news had a write-up about the 300 L. The article was written by a Peter F. Madsen and it outlined the trim and running gear of these cars. In the article he wrote: "From...

Good Afternoon Always liked the lighted grille. Thought is was a classy touch. Liked it so much I 'borrowed' the idea for the lowly Newport. Omni

Big John The 'Barge' has two (per side) tail lamps. and a build date of 1 Feb. The outer lamps protrude into the trunk.

Good Morning A long shot might be Murray Park. www.cbodies.com I have a '65 Newport and searched a couple of years before scoring some. To the best of my knowledge, these are a one year only item, so the reproduction probably won't happen. Another long shot might be late '70's Dodge...

Ffranzwa No, I did not replace the steel lines (I DID replace ALL the rubber connectors. Vans has the steel lines if needed. A slight tweaking of the float arm was done. The float did not drop as far (empty) as the original. Compare the old and new sending units to insure that the arm...

Just replaced mine ('65 Newport). Got tank/sending unit/filler grommet from Vans Auto. Tad over $400 including shipping. Omni

Good Afternoon Looks like a good place to start. How is the interior/drive train? Here is a pic of the poorer relation (Newport) As Purchased (May 2021) Last Summer

The 'Party Barge' came from the factory sans mirrors on either side. Apparently the buyer (it was an ordered car) didn't want to layout the cash. Looks like a couple of 'Western Auto' type were added early on. Omni

Good Afternoon I believe that from the factory there was no grommet. Just the dimmer sticking through the carpet. Omni

Down load a FSM (Factory Service Manual) before you injure yourself.

Good Morning Be advise that the torsion bars are anchored to a member that is bolted to the cross member - part of the torsion aire suspension. At least that is how it is on a '65 Newport. To remove the cross member this piece needs to be removed first which means that the torsion bars need...

D. There is also a tool that sits on top the the lower ball joint nut and pushes against the upper ball joint. Tool is called...wait for it...Upper Ball Joint Stud Remover. Perhaps a combination of a pickle fork, the stud remover and PB Blaster will do the trick. Don't know if you get down...

Good Morning If I have understood this correctly, the ball joint is loose from the control arm but it is still attached to the spindle? There is a tool called a 'pickle fork' available in different widths, that essentially is a double wedge. Drive it in between the top of the spindle and the...
