    Help, Illinois/Indiana: Looking for original owner.

    That's so cool. Never thought I would directly speak to someone that worked at a dealership that verified the Superbird 'de-nosed' myth/story, and had someone else corroborate it.

    1967 Trunk jack instruction decal

    FWIW my 67 fastback has the original trunk lid, no decal or remnants of anything. Had no idea they did not come with one, thought it was just missed, car was shipped on a Friday.

    1967 Trunk jack instruction decal

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but a fastback and notchback have different trunklids, and the underside is probably different, possibly conv is different as well.

    Help, Illinois/Indiana: Looking for original owner.

    Thought I would search for this thread and see if it still existed. Still have not found the original owner's family. I check fb Lost Muscle Cars weekly, and just because that page is cool, follow a hundred old car pic instagram accounts, I know I'd recognize it from back in the day if I saw...

    BB A-body drivers side mount

    Poly mounts fit but they suck big time. Internally, they are designed to not pull apart, which doesn't matter because the engine is twisting, and they slide apart. The poly that surrounds it makes it difficult to see when it fails, but it does, always.

    New this site, from the Land down under,

    Nice! Love the 62s. What is the difference between an R and S series?

    67 Dart GTS windshield trim

    I've R&R'd multiple windshields and rear windows, using both new and old gaskets, time consuming but not difficult. Most recently on my 58 Coronet, complex curves, both front and rear. Spray bottle with soapy water, plastic scrapers, strong thin rope, patience. I did notice when I did my 62...

    Hurst 3836 64-67 A-Body Shifter

    A few more questions on this 3836 shifter: 1) Is there a rebuild kit that is close to what is needed? My understanding is there is not a complete kit. 2)My plan is to use a 3836 shifter on a cast OD trans. I bought the parts below from Brewers, the first is the a-body OD linkage rod (no # cast...

    [WANTED] Looking for a slant 6 225

    My friend has a Mopar junkyard here in NY. Since it's a junkyard, and I do not normally look for slant 6s, cannot say whether he has a 71 slant, but I plan on going back as soon as this deep freeze ends. I could take a look then.

    Lining up Linkage, A833

    Make sure the side cover gearshift levers are nice and squared off and have good engagement with the shifter operating levers. If not, neutral will be difficult to locate, as well as getting in/out of gear.

    1960 Valiant Window and Door Handles removal

    There is a groove in the square stud. The handle has a square hole, and the clip is square, but it is offset slightly so one edge of the clip 'snaps' into the groove. First pic shows clip set into handle, square of clip is offset to square of handle. Second pic shows the 'tool' I made to get...

    My 4 speed Schumachers. Schumacher sent them to Accurate, who modified them, and sent me the entire exhaust with their collector/downpipes.

    WIW 1954 331 Chrysler Hemi

    A friend of mine has 4 hemis on a flatbed, 2 are 4 barrels, but I think he said they may be truck motors, which are different in some way. I think he wants $1,500 each, but I don't know anything about a truck hemi, if they are truck, and different. Has a cast in bell hemi on the floor. Not sure...

    WIW 1954 331 Chrysler Hemi

    Here's the Hemi with the muncie that 'got away.' Was advertised as a 331. Clearly the cast in bellhousing. Should have jumped on this asap.

    WIW 1954 331 Chrysler Hemi

    I know enough, I think, to know a 1954 331 Hemi is a good piece. The bellhousing is not cast into the block, although my understanding is the ones with the cast in bellhousing, with a readily available adapter, can accept a Muncie 4 speed. It is stamped C542–8-9016, and apparently from a New...

    Someone said to me it's like talking to a child of alcohol/drug addicted parents. They'll defend them no matter what they do or however low they go.

    Upper control arm hack

    My 67 383, aluminum heads, headers, had rebuilt stock front suspension with a factory sway bar. I replaced that with all QA1 stuff and a new 16:1 PST manual box. Car handled beautifully and went down the road straight as an arrow. Added a new front/rear swaybar, it was an improvement, but the...

    A855 - 5 Speed

    I posted the answer to this many pages back: GFI states they have built 300 to date, unfortunately they are full of crap on a regular basis. Our Story As I did then, I highly doubt that number. Thing is, the link above to "Our Story" does not work anymore, and the base home link...

    A855 - 5 Speed

    I would say, no. Last count I have, there were 2 within this thread with no issues to date, and 2 who have yet to install, not counting your friend. At the end of the year I spent dealing with this issue, GFI informed me there were 12 defective trans built, 9 in one month, with the same exact...
