    Soft lines for ‘73 disc brake conversion? / What Steel Rims Work?

    We are pretty much done with the brake lines up front !! Didn’t get the chance to take pics before I left, but they are where they need to be. Now the challenge is to find the right soft hose for the calipers. My New Yorker was originally a Drum / Drum car but I’ve since upgraded to a ‘73 style...

    Engines available in a '70 Newport.

    The 383-2bbl, the 383-4bbl 330 horse (indicated as hp in this version of the data book) and TNT 440 were available. There is no '68-'70 383-4bbl HP 335 horse assembly available for a C body. The High Performance (HP) designation stopped distinguishing between a 2bbl and 4bbl assembly after the...

    Package shelf coloration and/or source for new

    As far as I can remember and what was in my '66 Fury, there was no finish applied. As CBODY67 stated it appeared as masonite. The problem in reproducing at home would be the cutout slots for the speakers. Of course, if you put aftermarket grilles over the speakers, problem solved. I bought a...

    Front Dash speaker removal/recommendations...

    Okay I finally got it out. You were right about it being "bonded". Actually it was the plastic duct work below the vents not wanting to release the from the grill. I persuaded her out and not damage to the plastic. Now to get some speaker suggestions, and I'll see about costs for repairing the...

    Booster Woes

    Just checked RockAuto and they are "Out of Stock" on power drum and power disc brake boosters. Including the "Cardone" brand and others. All of them. Might have to take what you can get.

    Booster Woes

    What makes your booster rare and hard to find parts for? Seems like some effective brazing could plug that hole? Might not look pretty, but you can communicate that fact to them. Many of the big box auto supply stores probably carry the "Cardone" brand, which many in here do not like, from...

    Booster Woes

    It's for a 1970 New Yorker. A new part would be fine, I just want a quality part. I hear that some boosters last only a couple of years and climbing inder my dash to remove that thing every two years is what I want to avoid.

    Front Dash speaker removal/recommendations...

    If the speaker grille rests on the dash pad itself, the two probably bonded a bit over the years. "Gentle and careful" are the operative words, I suspect. Can you raise the rear side enough to get a thin metal item, or one of the nylon trim removal tools, near the corner of the grille to help...

    Front Dash speaker removal/recommendations...

    Yes it's an original radio so yes does need to be 8 Ohm... So I started the process of speaker removal and looking at the FSManual, it's explained as an easy process. All it says is remove the 6 screws atop the dash to remove the grill/vent panel ..then remove the 4 screws that attach the...

    '67 C body production info aka "How many?"

    Are you using global Chrysler installation percentages from above and applying them to a sub model? You can't do that as there is no documentation that a global percentage applies to ALL models. The installation rate of an option varies by model. One hundred percent of Road Runners and GTXs...

    Door trim clips needed

    For the plastic clip you look at Mr. G's to see if they have it or something close that would work.

    How to remove headrests?

    Since I've bought new replacements, that might just work as I won't need them anymore.

    Engines available in a '70 Newport.

    I am aware of the Newport 440 model, but it does not appear in the Data Book. All through it only the three engines I mentioned are listed for Newport. However, the letter you posted is from December 1969, several months after this Data Book was written. The 440 and 300 Hurst were later...

    Booster Woes

    Suggestions needed for a quality new power break booster source. A local mechanic said AutoZone is good, another said Rock Auto is fine. I want a quality booster that will last. Backstory: I sent the one off my 1970 New Yorker to the rebuild place in Washington, but they wanted $705.00!!! I'm...

    66 Sport Fury-From The Beginning

    ...way for new exhaust. Still waiting for the remainder of the trim to arrive from the polisher. And we just bought a brand new chicken coop...... ***Almost 4 years later, a bunch of phone calls, visits, and text messages and the mechanic has finally started working on my car. I'm not gonna...

    How to remove headrests?

    Thanks. I thought they just pulled out but I get quite the resistance. I'll do what Big John suggested. My parents bought a '71 Toyota Crown (Yes, I was fully embarrassed!) new. I liked what the front seats on it had. There was a "button" formed into the vinyl fabric of the seats on the...
