131k original miles on 5.9 - runs strong - shortbed -std. cab. SLT reverse bad in trans windshield cracked 500 in reg. due paint shot - dark green body not bad interior ok - rip on drivers side tires are so-so factory chrome rims a/c working good 1250 firm and drive it off 800 for motor and...

correction, 131k miles. the motor is still in the truck running strong. $800 takes the motor, accessories (except a/c) and trans (no reverse)

my friend is considering parting out his truck - 120k original. it's still running and driving in the truck... i told him he might get $1200 along with the computer and misc for it. Offers? Advice the reverse is blown out on the trans It's in Fullerton CA...

you said you have another coronet project. The duster is more practical as a daily, you just need to maintain it. Why have two projects when you can have one?

This trans came with a car i purchased and I won't be needing it. I was told by the PO that it works. I don't know the year for sure but I think it might be 68. The pan was pulled for inspection and it looked very clean. I don't have a torque converter for it. located in Fullerton CA near...

car sold last month for 2000...... sorry for non-respondo....

It looks like I need to thin things down a bit for space reasons. Here are the details. Body is pretty good but paint is pretty much crap. It had a crappy paint job done by a PO years back and has no rust coming back in the quarters. There are a couple small spots on it but nothing much...

I got it out. Sometimes you just have to go back when you are in a more patient mood to finish the job. I'm glad to hear that it is one of the more tricky clusters, now I don't feel so inadequate. I was able to get everything off except the alt. gauge wires which I disconnect after wiggling...

no problem, i'll get my 85lb contortionist girlfriend to do it!

the steering column is dropped.... it won't come out far enough to see anything.... i can reach behind but i don't know what i am feeling.... i will go back and mess some more........

Hey guys - what's the trick to the the instrument cluster out. Is it reaching behind to undo the spedo cable? There must be a trick. Can anyone help????? thanks

thanks man..... appreciate the input

Oh.... oops... 1970 Dart, 225-slant, stock-points

I know this is pretty basic to a lot of you and probably been gone over many times but, well, honestly I'm just lazy to do my own research! Anyway, the hot wire to the distributor is getting hot (hopefully not damaged because was starting to melt!). I would assume the ballast resister needs...

oops......

Thanks, so the 16 is the thread pitch?

how do you turn the motor over to set the timing chain? how do you put the balancer on?

Is the slant six supposed to have a bold on the H. Balancer? This thing didn't have one and I can't tell if there are threads inside or not. Thanks.

I have an opportunity to pick up a 1bbl for my slant but it is off a 73. Are there any differences, advantages, disadvantages of this carb over a 70? The pix are of the one the guy is selling. Thanks, greatly appreciated. :munky2:

does anyone know if a 73 1bbl is the same as a 70? or any problems running it...... advantages/disadvantages? thanks

i think you might have won the prize! ...... i looks like the throttle shaft is pretty sloppy ...... i think you might be right.... i hope so anyway.... what do you know about getting parts to fix this.?.. short of buying a rebuilt unit..... thanks...

What a patriot!

it's a 1bbl carb.... thats all i know..... i know it has vacume on the port but didn't check how it reacted to the throttle..... will check tomorrow.... will take a close look at the carb for leaks too..... thanks for the input... really... i know a guy who has a 73 with a slant close by...

i don't see any gas leaking..... :munky2:

i did adjust the valves... some could have been slightly tight......the problem didn't go away?

I still can't figure this Fn thing out. Here is some more info: I checked the vacume advance function with a pump and it worked fine. The timing mark is not bouncing around a lot, though it is nowhere near the right position so it can't be correct. The idle mixture screw seems to do...

it goes pop pop pop.... i don't think it has a miss and the distributor and cap/rotor are new..... I'm doing the valve adjustment tonight.... and checking the vacume before and after UPDATE::banghead: I just got done adjusting the valves. It's still doing the same thing. Some of the valves...

Hey, does anyone know if there is any difference between an a/c firewall and a non a/c firewall for 63 or 64 Dart? Thanks

a second adjustment on the carb? that doesn't make sense to me-- the carb and the distributor are not even close to each other. Can anyone explain or confirm this. Yea.... i'm feeling hopeful that is just a valve adjustment and tune. Timing chain means more money and time. Thanks.

thanks all for the input! i'm going to take a look at it in a couple days, hopefully. I forgot to mention, the compression is 120-130..... i'm pretty sure it's not the vac advance but will check it.... it's points. I'm pretty sure it's the original motor so it's mechanical lifters, right...
