    Modern skinny spare for older mopars

    Some call them gummy strips, and other names, but all the good ones are made of a leather like material with a forever lasting super sticky stuff on them, packed in wax paper. All about 3" that I have seen. Been around for 30 + years as the guy I rescued in AK was back in 2001. The better...

    Modern skinny spare for older mopars

    I personally do not have a lot of faith in fix a flat, but have been using trucker style plug strips with a container of Slime on board as an emergency back-up for years. Trucker strips have never failed to repair a screw or nail on the road. Even bailed out a motorcycle rider near the Arctic...

    Opinions on new wheel color

    Thanks for all the thoughts, with some being spot on as maybe I'm just looking at a change...... Now thinking it's best to leave it alone. Or maybe later, buy something aftermarket with tires that could easily be swapped out. Of course, something old school traditional

    Opinions on new wheel color

    Thinking about changing the color of my wheels to a gloss black and adding trim rings. General thoughts would be appreciated. Are trim rings created equal, or are some sources better than others. Thanks

    Best source for turn signal switch

    On my 68 Dart, my signals work fine and cancel, but to not snap in place and sometimes activates the left lights without the inside light on, from gravity. Can that piece be bought separate? I also see complete switch's from $50. to $200. Getting OEM would be great, but who makes a good...

    Base clear paint question

    My Dart is painted with a base clear paint from Napa, Tec base line. Have been told it's Sherwin Williams. I have an area I need to repair, Road damage chips, ect. I have the base color, but need the hardener. Are these specific to different brands of paint or universal ? The nearest Sherwin...

    Trouble shooting a dead wiper motor

    Here are some better pictures with part numbers. The switch feels like it's a variable speed. The wires soldered to the motor just do not look right, Going to a somewhat larger than I'm used to car show next week, hoping to find a Dart there I can compare

    Trouble shooting a dead wiper motor

    Slowly working out the bugs to the new to me 68 Dart GT. I believe I have a variable speed wiper, but how do I know for sure? Only thing that works on the switch is the pump. Motor has some funky cold solder joints which I'm not sure belong. I have a wiring diagram from Classic coming, but for...

    Six Pack question

    I have a 68 Dart with a stroker 340. Exploring the idea of adding a Six Pack to it. Currently have a 750 Holley. Getting 13 MPG around town driving normal using 3.21 gears and a 4 speed. Does the center carb on a Six Pack get better, worst or the same as a double pumper? Also have a 55 chevy...
