I just acquired a new diff cover with a plug that was easily removed. In fact, a kindly FABO member sent me one.

No, he won't. People like that don't learn. They either kill someone or get killed themselves. Best to not be involved in either.

He's referring to the first generation of the current sedan. The coupe died in 2000. The 2011+ are much better cars. Better suspension, better engines and MUCH NICER INTERIORS. Plus, they have so many rebates and deals right now you can probably get one cheaper new than used. My aunt has a...

One word of advice: avoid the repro tail lights on eBay from Micas y Mas. Besides the long wait and terrible communication, they don't fit. The other parts you mention are out there, but not cheap. Lots of cosmetic stuff in 1966 was a one-year-only deal.

Finally found the remains of my 66 Barracuda's broadcast sheet. After piecing it back together, I've been able to decode most of the information, but I can't find any reference to the 'build codes' that I assume identify the original mechanical equipment. I'm especially interested in the...

He may mean that the 200 and the Signet were separate models in '66. There were no "Signet 200"s. Here's a scan of the brochure showing the 100, 200 and Signet: http://oldcarbrochures.org/index.php/NA/Plymouth/1966-Plymouth/1966-Plymouth-Valiant-Brochure

That's a remarkably rare 2 door hardtop Dart, probably a Phoenix - top of the line - and the first year for the Dart nameplate. Restored, worth 3 times what he's asking for both, but really hard to find that missing trim.

Relax, fellas. They've been making coffee in cars since the 60s. http://www.ebay.com/itm/KOFFE-MAKER-PALUXETTE-BMW-MB-200-220-300-190-SL-PONTON-PAGODE-12V-NOS-/370596280223 And that's a Fiat 500L, no relation to the Dart at all.

PM sent on headlight bezels.

I've gotten a few parts from him. He's pretty helpful and knows a lot, but be certain of what parts you need and what fits what. He seems like a good guy; he did let me return a radiator that wouldn't fit.

The 2.0 is NOT the same engine as Caliber/Patriot/Compass. It only shares the block; every other component is new for the TigerShark. They even swapped the exhaust to the opposite side of the engine. The Hyundai sourced 6 speed auto is just a stopgap till the ZF 9 speed is available. That...
