I remember going to a swap meet years ago near Columbia, Mo in the middle of winter. I thought it was around January or February but, I can't be certain. Anyone know of any Mopar swap meets coming up around that area?

I have been battling a head light issue for quite some time. This showed up after I bypassed my ammeter in the dash with a 10ga wire and a fuseable link from the output on my alternator to my starter relay. At idle the lights are fine but, just up off of idle they (for lack of a better term)...

I am getting married next fall and my Fiance' absolutely wants my Duster in our wedding. :blob: The thing is, We are getting married in Michigan and we live in St.Louis, Mo. It is about an 8 hour drive. Since driving the car is out of the question, I am going to be needing a trailer to bring...

I have a soft spot for old tools. I picked up an OLD Porter Cable Model 528 Type B for $20. It is a little dirty and needs to be cleaned but, it works! I am going to clean it up, might put a new blade on it and see what it does. It uses an 8 1/4" blade and says to only use blades rated for...

A couple of months ago I packed up my two atvs and headed for the U.P. (northern northern northern Michigan). I went over my truck and trailer with a fine tooth comb... Twice before I left. I didn't see anything that sent up any red flags but, who knows what will happen when you are traveling so...

I took my '74 Duster out last month and on our way home I caught a slight hint of a burning wire when we pulled up to a stop sign. It quickly went away but, I was on edge. We got a couple miles down the road and found that when I turned the wheel almost all the way to the left the horn would...

I have a set of '75 Dart Sport/Duster bucket seats that are missing the latches and hinge covers. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a set of latches for them? Also, could someone post a picture of their '75 seats showing the latch and latch/hinge cover? I was going to...

So, I was telling a local junk yard/collector about how I would like to find a set of 3.23 gears. Well, supposedly He found a "NOS" set. I was skeptical because they claim to be "coated with the factory yellow lapping compound "... That sure looks like the marking compound used to set up the...

So my Brother was working on his '70 Cuda and told me he bypassed his bulkhead by running a 10ga wire with a fusible link from the threaded stud on his alternator to his starter relay. He claimed that it made a huge improvement in his car overall. I had heard of this bypass before and figured...

I am working on setting up my air compressor and want to use the same air chuck/quick disconnect fittings that my Dad uses. That way if I need to borrow his tools or if He wants to borrow mine... there will be no un-nessecary headaches. Now, I have always assumed that what He used was a High...

The owner of the shop I work at told me I cold have one of the old air compressors they had in the loft. The plant manager and I pulled one down and tossed it on my trailer on lunch today! It does have a 5hp 3 phase motor on it so, I am planning on swapping it for a 220v single phase and see...

I am working on a rewind table (printing industry stuff) that is an old DC driven table. Our rewind guy said that we are out of the heat sinks and need to order more. The pic below is what He gave me. I know if I gave that to our purchasing lady she wouldn't have a clue what to do with it...

I am working on building a 489 center seciton with 3.55 gears and a new Eaton Posi. This is the first time I have tried to rebuild one of these so I am taking my time and learning ALOT. I am working on sitting the pinion depth and have ran in to a couple of issues. The first time I pressed...

I am working on building a 489 with 3.55 gears. My question is about the small pinion bearing (nearest the yoke). I honed the large bearing (the bearing furthest from the yoke) and slipped it on to the new pinion on top of a .031 shim. For a starting point, I measured the legth of the old...

I live about an hour southwest of St.Louis. I have always wanted to see this event and never had the opportunity. So, I want to see if I can't get myself and my Duster down there this year! I have googled and searched but, I haven't found a any dates yet. I know it is probably crazy early...

I live in a very rural area and got pulled over on a rural back road for doing 56mph on a road with a 30mph speed limit. I pulled up to the stop sign, stopped and took off. I made the right and went over the hill and was driving down a long flat straight stretch with a field on one side and...

We went up and stayed in Sandusky, hit up the car show, swap meet, and drag races on Saturday. Then ran up the cost of lake Erie Saturday night. Scored some great food and took off Sunday morning. Did anyone else have the chance to make it?

After battling a cooling issue all summer, I was finally able to drive my car in to work a few days this week. I figured it would be a good test considering it is an hour (at highway speed) both directions. It did fantastic! It ran great, it stayed just a tick above 180 the entire time... except...

I called up custom radiator shop that has a direct bolt-in radiator for a '74 Duster listed on their website but, the inlet and outlet are on the wrong sides. I am running a big block and need a radiator with the inlet on the upper passenger and the outlet on the lower driverside. I told them...

I am working on upgrading my radiator and while I wait for parts I thought I might build a front spoiler. I want to force as much air through the radiator as I can. So, I mocked it up with cardboard and kind of liked it. So, I started cutting some steel and test fitted it before I did any...

I have a '74 Duster that I am going to flush the cooling system on. I am going to replace my heater core hoses before I am all done with it. I was wondering if anyone knew what size they are? I think it uses two different sizes? 3/4" and 5/8" OR a 5/8" and a 1/2"?

I am trying to talk my other half in to going to the MMW Fall Ball in Indy with me this year. If anyone could post some pics or atleast links to threads about it, I would greatly appreciate it! :blob: If I am not mistaken, Didn't they close a street in downtown Indy for a night for a party?

My girlfriend and I are taking a 3 day trip down in Memphis, Tennessee for my Birthday. We are only going to be down there for a few days and We want to try and make the most of our visit. She has never been in a Helicopter but, have always wanted to go for a ride in one. So, I was thinking...

We are thinking about ordering a deck lid for an E-body from Year one. Does anyone have any discount codes they are not using?

I pulled these out of a '72 Demon. I did clean them up and paint them a semi-gloss black. I sat these on my shelf and never used them. I would like to have $60 for them but, make me an offer. I would prefer a paypal payment though. These will be shipping from 63069, (St.Louis, Mo.)

I am selling off some interior parts that I didn't not use from a recent project. I ordered the new window felts to use along with these black trim pieces that attach the inside of the '73 - '74 Doors. They are in "driver" shape. There are a couple corners broken off of the edge the goes under...

I am working on my '74 Duster. I am running a factory radiator and over flow/reservoir. It normally runs at 180 degrees... which is when the thermostat opens. The last two times that I have taken it out... it has climbed up to 195/200... My thermostat opens at 180 like it is supposed to. I...

I pulled these door emblems out of a '72 Dodge Demon. They are in good shape. There are not cracked or broken in any way. I do NOT have the steel retaining clips that press in to the door. I am selling strictly just the plastic door emblem. I would like to have $40 + shipping for the set...

I am selling off some spare parts. I have two sets of door handle bezels out of a '74 Duster. The tan (or beige) ones are in good "driver" shape. I will take $10 plus shipping and they are yours. The black ones are in pretty good shape. I will take $15 plus shipping. I do not have the...

I have two sets of arm rests for a '74 Duster. The tan (or beige) ones are free - just pay shipping and they are yours. One of them is missing the locating pins in the back and they DO NOT come with any screws (although you can get them at a hardware store a Phillips head #14 x 2" long)...
