My dash pad foam has completely collapsed leaving the pad a shapeless and thoroughly disfigured wreck. As such I can't send it to Just Dashes for restoration. Per the conversation I had with one of their reps when I visited their shop in Van Nuys last week they determine the shape a pad should...

This Panther was built when I was either fifteen or sixteen. It's a Bandai 1/24th scale kit that had some pretty outstanding detail for its day, which was 1970's. It has some damage now from the move to Pittsburgh, as do just about all of my kits, but it's nothing that can't be repaired...

This question isn't about my Duster, it has to do with my 1998 Dodge Ram 2500. As I've always understood it, with one of these differentials the power is supposed to transfer to the wheel with better traction. My question is, how quickly should that happen? My driveway is fairly steep. At the...

My Duster has a rather serious corrosion issue on the cowl panel effecting all of the little vent bars. It was caused by leaves that piled up on top of the hood and cowl as the car sat in the driveway in Los Angeles and it’ll have to be dealt with. I have a factory replacement that’s still...

I gave mine up in 82 when the headers were installed. According to my parts catalog the part numbers are 3830904(drivers side) and 3870059(passengers side). The drivers side had the sheet metal stove pipe as well. Edit - I just thought I'd mention that there are sellers on eBay listing the...

When a small patch of clear coat has let go but the underlying color coat is still in good shape, can the missing patch of clear be spot repaired and polished out smooth without being obvious? My 2002 Dodge Intrepid has issues in a few small places, but the rest of the paint seems to be in great...

My Duster has what I believe are called slotted rims made of aluminum. The two front rims are made by American Racing, the two back rims are another brand that I’ve long since forgotten. Is there a way to identify the manufacturer? Also, does anyone know of a business in the Pittsburgh area that...

I know these are novice questions but here goes. I'm installing a new vibration dampener on my 318 and the factory service manual I have says torque the bolt to 135 ft lbs. Well, the bolt is still turning and the dampener is getting very close to the timing marks on the timing cover. Is the...

This is probably a stupid question, but here goes. My Duster sat for thirty years at least with the engine partially disassembled after a serious engine failure. As a result as I go through the rebuilding process I’m having to deal with corrosion issues that would never have existed if the...

I bought this car in 1981 from a guy in my platoon at Ft Hood Tx that was being transferred to Germany. Prior to that the only Chrysler product (or vehicle for that matter) I had ever driven was an M60A1 main battle tank. I learned to drive automobiles in this car when I was seventeen. It has a...

Hello everyone. I found this forum this morning while searching for information on my 1975 Duster and thought I'd go ahead and join. I bought the car in 1981 from an Army friend at Ft Hood Tx and drove it for ten years before the engine died. I'm the cars third owner. It originally came from...
