replace with straight new grade 8 bolts?

my three year old Phoenix Graphics stripes - Custom color, stock 1970 Dart Configuration My 25 year old Phoenix Graphics Stripes:

whatever you do, don't hope for the best and slam the hood! put a ball of putty on the wing nut and press the hood down slowly

Once again Legendary proves to be worth the cost. 3 years ago I had Legendary make a set of factory pattern Bucket and rear seat covers in custom colors for my 70 Dart. No way to sugar coat it they cost alot when you added in matching custom color, factory pattern door and rear panels. When...

Bump!

still looking!!!

I bought a set from Classic Industries because I was planning to drive the car a lot (and did!). The company that actually makes them (ask Classic for the info) told me that they would install using the original anchors in the floor. The car is a 1970 Dart with factory buckets. When I pushed...

Sounds better than new house time!!!

It took complete replacement of the interior of the Dart my Dad bought new in 1970 to get rid of the smell of his 5 years owning the car. Headliner to carpets. I can imagine what it did to my lungs driving around in his cars with him as a tyke, while the tobacco companies swore up and down...

just an example where I think custom stripe color was a good idea. Phoenix sent me 6 different shades and finishes of stripe material to lay out on my paint to make a choice at no cost. I picked this one because it had the same level and fineness of metallic that was in the paint. My wife...

can you explain what the slide over is? Can you use it on stripes that have been in place for 3 years?

take close up pictures of the wheels and post them

Phoenix Graphics will do any stripe pattern they have in any color stripe material that they have. They did factory stripes in a non-factory color for me. I believe there is a factory stripe with Dart Swinger cut out and they could just not cut out the Swinger part.

For my latest Dart (1970 done 3 years ago) I bought AMD bumpers and I really believe that they are the best 70 Dart bumpers that I have had on a car in the 50 years I've been fooling with them and they cost less than getting an old one rechromed.

I can't imagine that this is accurate. Perhaps they said do not overtorque the shackles or not to torque the shackles until you put the weight of the car on the wheels...

ditto...

Like giving it gas while holding the brake?

If there is little left of the old foam to go by, that's even more reason to buy molded buns that are the right shape and I would trust Legendary most to have gotten the shape right.

care to share where you found the lower price?

Rheostat in the headlight switch

silly question but isn't the arm rest in the way for the 4 speed shifter?

Layson's sells driver's side new ones for $298 a set. Given the wear and tear on the driver's side it might be worth it.

:mob::mad::mob::mob::mad::mob::mob::mob: Sorry but you asked for opinions: Black car with purple engine bay sounds absolutely butt ugly. The question will be "when are you going to paint the rest of the car to match?" Why don't you just paint the whole car Plum Crazy?

originally 18 gauge wire

Do you have the old wire? If so post pictures. What car does it go to?

One of the hinges seems to bind up when left open for a while putting undo pressure on the hood frame when you go to close it.

I'm helping out on a 1967 Dart. Can someone definitively tell me what year hood hinges interchange. I know that in the early 70s they changed where the adjustment on the hood occurs, but don't know when the change over was. Does anybody offer new hinges?

I am so sick of being blinded by LED lights. If the guy coming toward you can't see, he might end up in your lap. Wagner makes Halogen sealed beams. They look and install like originals but the high beams are much brighter than stock, but not ridiculously bright. They are even cheap and...

Just like in WA State, it's all just a question of elevation!

The first post shows a spring arm that fits into the detentes in a scalloped plate. It positively locates each gear and the ratchet shifter will not function at all without it. The one in the picture is a later improved design (hence the one I am looking for). My old shifter has the original...
