    Vapor (Water) Shields

    Be careful if you make your own in choosing material. Pulled door panels off a 70 Duster not long ago and the sheets were there but brittle and busted in a few spots. I talked to the owner and he had made sheets and installed them with the door panels 4 years earlier. Whatever the material...

    Factory Painted "Vinyl" Roof

    So the question would be, why so few two tone painted roofs when it was clearly a factory option? I think I have an idea. Here are ads for a special package offered on 1970 Darts: So if they a "giving away" vinyl roofs as a part of a special cost package, why pay for a contrasting painted...

    Magazine cars. How many on the forum?

    I guess with the demise of most of the Mopar mags and even general high performance/hot rodding magazines, "magazine cars" will be a thing of the past. It hasn't been that long ago that there were 5 or 6 Mopar specific magazines. I can't believe that some enterprising person wouldn't start one...

    1968 Dodge Dart GT Sleeping Beauty?

    on your console I have a suggestion that someone passed to me here on FABO - attach the console carpet to the console using wide industrial velcro. You buy it by the foot, it sticks to the back of the carpet and the console - no muss, no fuss and when you need to get to stuff below the console...

    Classic Auto Air

    It sure would be cool to have a stock appearing interior with a glove box door that opened to revealed something akin to a SciFi movie prop... Although in these the days of sealed batteries one of the slickest MSD 6AL installs I've see was bolted with the rubber isolators from the bottom of the...

    1971 Dodge Dart Swinger “Special”

    8 1/4 didn't replace the 8 3/4 in A-bodies until 1973. I also have an unmolested Swinger with a 318/904 with an 8 3/4. Bought it with 27,000 miles on the clock so it's original. I have purchased 2 1972, 6 cyl, 4-door Darts with 8 3/4s in them, just to get the rear drum to drum. I think when...

    Trunk seals that fit?

    put some washers under bracket with the loop that is attached to the frame in the trunk (not the lid). The situation that you describe puts a heck of a lot of stress to the latching mechanism and will eventually ruin it.

    Bad amp gauge

    The amp gauges were never intended to last this long. You can get a modern under dash amp gauge and if you are careful, you can hook it directly to the existing Amp gauge wires and mount it under the dash. There are a host of positive diagnostic advantages to an amp gauge and a voltmeter and...

    need pics - clamps for lower rear seat back

    Thanks, but no it's not - that one holds the seat bottom in place and the one I'm looking for are the ones that hold the bottom of the seat back in place.

    Voltage regulator smoking?

    It's funny when I look at your pictures it seems that a bunch of wires are simply unwrapped (probably in search for issues in the past). Maybe someone here has pictures of your harness all bundled up and you could just re-wrap some in the groups like the factory. Or maybe there is someone near...

    Classic Auto Air

    Thought you might want to consider this when you get to the point of installing your control module. I Customized a later plastic A-body glove box. It provides access to the controller and relay and has more storage than the crappy box Classic sends to you:

    I really like your Dart! One of the first cars I remember riding in was a 65 Dart 270 that was our family car when I was 9-14 years old.

    Somebody else look at his firewall/wiring photo. I don't see a fat red wire and a fusible link headed for his bulkhead connector - did somebody already bypass his bulkhead connector?

    Voltage regulator smoking?

    A couple of suggestions when you are fixing this. I believe yours is a 1966 Dart? That means the wiring is almost 60 years old. The manufacturer never thought it would still be on the road in 20 years, let alone 60. Yoru under dash pictures show a lot of repairs from over the years, But I...
