    Trunk Mount Battery - Wire Routing

    Ran them inside, positive and ground. Passenger footwell. G3 hemi with passenger side starter, so a short wire from the bottom to the starter and short wire to alternator too. Will use these bulkheads for powering fuse boxes and grounding inside and out.

    car won't start until I release the key from the cranking position.

    I had loose bulkhead wire with my 70. Would crank without firing, then 1 time out of 3 it would fire when let off of cranking.

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    I think I bought cheaper gauges than I wanted to to help justify it. I think they will look good though. I know I'll be happy. It would just have been easier if i got the electric speedo first, so now I have the mechanical to sell. Plus I dropped the water temp gauge and dented it, so I bought...

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    yea, it was expensive. I think I have $1,300 between the dash, gauges and wiring harness. That was before this weekend when I realized that the manual speedometer hits the steering support (check the picture with it in the car without the speedometer in), and the speedometer cable doesn't even...

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    yea, It is the A-11. Plus the glove box cover. I finished it once, but there were a couple runs in the paint and I am getting around to doing it again since I cut the dash to get this one installed. The top will be painted a wrinkle black (thanks to Sydcuda), and I am going to brush the...

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    I think I could get some more pictures for you. I'll try to get them up tomorrow for you. After I bought this I had a friend look at it and said that he could build it. Of course, the company is out of business, so I don't see any harm in reproducing it for yourself.

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    the 2nd and 3rd picture. Figured if they aren't there I dont have anything to worry about. I supposed I should try to stick a piece of plywood where they used to be. that would probably look better.

    decided to "fix" the gauges

    Well, I have been tired of looking at gauges that didn't give me any help. Wouldn't work for whatever reasons, so I decided that I would spend some time with them and finally "fix" them! What do you think?! A before picture of the ugly and barely working gauges and an after pic!

    i bought a davis unified ignition, chrysler tri power ignition. I origionally bought the big hei unit, but then realized that it won't fit in an a-body. Mailed it back and they built a new distributor to match the specs of my engine and mailed it to me, and refunded the difference. i havent had...

    Help identifying part and finding a new one...??

    i thought what was the buzzer. I found that on my '70 swinger and it was unplugged. So i plugged it in and it was the buzzer. And it was annoying, so i unplugged it. i can't verify part number though. Steve

    Autometer fuel guage not working

    thanks for the replies, the sending unit was new 3 years ago (replaced shortly after i bought the car), but the stock guage never worked and i thought it was the guage. So i think the sending unit would be good since it is only 3 years old. Maybe it is a problem with the wire, I could get...

    Autometer fuel guage not working

    Hi, I have an autometer fuel guage (#4315) that i just put in the car and it is hooked up but does not work. I was wondering how to correctly hook it up to work with our cars. According to the instructions it is correct. I tested the ohms at the sending wire on the guage and it read OL, and...

    how does the horn system work?

    hi, I gotta get my horn working so i can pass inspection some day. When i push the button i can hear the relay click so i think that works. I'm not sure if the horns i have work or not, but i did buy 2 new horns that i could put on. With wiring i found that the green with red stripe in...

    Mini Starter - Which to buy for my A Body

    i remember the first time i saw a slant, i thought "what the hell is wrong with this? you can see the starter just by opening the hood?" i think i got one that is supposed to go on a dakota, put the rebuilt engine in and couldn't get the old starter in between the headers and block and...

    fuel and temp gauge

    the bulbs are 194LL. at least that is what i put in. My napa told me to go to the junk yard for the sockets. So i went to a dodge dealer, they told me about another dealer that had some older books, so i went there. They looked the number up, didn't have any, but gave me a list of all the...

    Engine/Headlight harness, which company?

    some of that might help explain why the backup lights never worked on my '70 dart and the neutral safety was bypassed at the starter relay. When i bought it the wires for the windsheild wiper were not there, so i took the harness from my '68 Barracuda, and i think i heard somewhere that they had...

    68 Dart Dash Light Socket

    hmm, my napa didn't even look for them, I had to go to a dealer who told me to go to another dealer that they knew had older books, and they looked around in a seventy something charger book, found a part number. They didn't have any and then they printed me off a list of dealers in a 75 mile...

    fuse block

    I was thinking about replacing just the fuse block for the moment. I figured i could cut the wire off of the old block, attatch it to the new block, then the next wire, and keep it all the same as it was before. I would also like to find a wiring diagram for my '70 Dart, anyone know a good...
