Can a couple of you 69 B'cuda guys post pictures of your rear Valance panel with the back-up lights installed? THANKS!!!

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 stumbled upon a MoparPlus on line catalog today and found a listing for 1970-1 Dart and Demon front fender extension trim that said they are considering reproducing them. I contacted them by phone and yes they are considering this. Got a second call saying they are considering this but have...

I'm working on replacing the hood on a 67 Dart that has structural issues. I found a hood but the owner doesn't know what year car it came from. Do 67 - 69 Dart hoods interchange? Are they mounted in exactly the same way?

Yesterday I drove over to Layson's and talked to Dave about reproducing the never before repopped Dodge script that appeared on the trunk lid of every 1970 Dodge Dart except the 1970 Swinger 340 (which has the same Dart and Swinger emblems that are on the Swinger quarter panels). These emblems...

So in the Old Days (read: no AI mumbo jumbo) the factory was faced with a difficult problem - how do you get pictures of your new models so that you can start enticing buyers before the cars are actually available for sale? This is especially true for smaller volume performance versions. For...

I know that a lot of the back glass trim for a 4 door sedan, 2 door sedan is different from 2 door hardtop, but specifically is the stainless trim along the bottom of the back glass the same? is it the same between 2 door sedan and four door sedan? I'm working on a 67 dart two door sedan.

I ended up with a pair of Swinger emblems that just have a dot over the 'i' instead of the usual flower. Does anybody know what year these came on??? Do they go with a specific sub model?

Many years ago a friend bought a badly deteriorated 1970 340 Dart. In the end the body was so compromised with rust he sold it and we lost track of it. It had a broadcast sheet and fender tag and when we decoded it all the car came in F4 green with a "light metalic green" butt stripe. I had...

I am pricing a complete set of 69 Plymouth B-body door hinges for somebody and found ones that are apparently made by/for AMD and ones by/for OER. The AMD ones cost almost $100 more for the set. Has anybody had actual experience with these 2 sources. I'd love to save him $100, but not at the...

We all know that A-bodies are prone to rust in front of and behind the rear wheel wells. We spend loads of time and money to cut out the bad stiff and weld in new metal. But what if there was a cheap way to keep them from rotting out in the first place, or to protect the new metal that you...

I put a twin scoop hood on my 1970 Dart GT and really wanted to put engine call outs on the scoops, but the car has a 318 not a 340. In tracing various threads about 318 call outs I found a number of FABO members working on call outs that copied the style of factory 340 or 273 badges. I lucked...

Just saw an article in the new Mopar Action about a guy's restoration of a red 70 Dart Swinger 340. In an article side bar it mentions why this guy's car has the butt stripe cut off at the edge of the rear Valance panel and shows pictures of the Red 340 Dart in the 1970 advertisements with the...

I'm trying to install a later year A-body inside hood release on my 1970 Dart. I think I have all the parts - cable with inside handle, mounting bracket for the inside handle, latch, long bracket for under hood, cable clamp. What I don't have is an example to use for assembly! I don't know...

I ran across these today and bought a set. They appear to be the same size and font as the factory 340 scoop script. Made of chromed plastic with adhesive backing. It amazes me that they look so close to the original 340 badges. Found in e-bay motors parts and accessories as: 318 ENGINE ID...

So I have a case of CRS (Can't Remember Sh*t). There are 3 screws that attach the piece of Chrome trim in the picture to the fender extension. For the life of me, I can't remember what they look like: shape of head, length of screw. Does somebody have a correct screw that they can take a...

God this is going to sound lame. I'm putting my 70 Dart GT back together after being stripped to a bare shell. Today I put a new driver side adjustable side mirror on - it looks GREAT!!! But then I went to put the adjuster toggle on the inside of the door and I am apparently missing...

I am putting the doors of my 70 Dart GT back together after paint. The FSM shows a door glass up stop. I can't find them if I removed them, so I went looking at the 4 spare two door hardtop doors in my parts shed. None of them seem to have anything where the FSM says it should be - there is a...

Before you ask, yes I have a FSM for this 1970 Dodge Dart and have reviewed it carefully. The last time I did this was in 2000. I am reassembling the doors after fresh paint. I finally have the glass run seal that attaches to the front edge of the glass on the way (pray that rumors of poor...

I'm working on a 1970 Dart 2dr Hardtop. Over the years I have ended up with 3 sets of the clips that screw to the channel around the front windshield to hold the moulding that goes around the windshield. I pulled them out to use one and it seems that here are two kinds of clips used, but the...

I recently bought headlight bezels and parking light covers from an OER supplier for a 71 Dart. They look really nice and fit really well, but the silver color is really different from the 70-7 grilles I have seen. Much shinier and darker in color. Are all those grilles out there just faded...

I have been looking for repops of the pot metal chromed trim that goes on the edge of the front fender extension and runs into the hood trim. There appears to be one for the more shallow 1972 version, but I can't find the ones that I need. Anybody have a source???

Lots of different companies offer interior and exterior screw sets for specific year and model Mopars. Last time I bought a set I spent lots of time rejecting what was sent and sending my old screws to the company to get what I actually needed (14 years ago). I'm hoping to avoid all that by...

I have two vent windows for my 1970 Dart. One has beautiful chrome trim with the inside latch, but is non-AC clear glass. The other has the tinted glass that I need and pitted crappy chrome. So how do I get the chrome and the glass apart and reinstall the tinted glass in the nice chrome?

On what year and package Dart was there Swinger emblems that had no flower???

I just spent an hour in the interweb with no luck. I'm looking for some specific individual rubber body plugs (not plastic). The spare tire well in my 70 Dart has two big body holes (2-1/2 inches). The originals were soft rubber (not a plastic caplug). This is a bucket seat car and the holes...

I'm putting a 1970 Dart back together and there are hollow back nuts that hold the front and rear fender/quarter extensions in place. They were originally filled with a non-hardening sealer to seal the hole in the body where they attach. What sealer are folks using to reuse the nuts?

I'm trying to help a friend who hit a deer. She has a 64 Valiant wagon with a 64 Barracuda front clip. is the hood the same for 64 Valiants and Barracudas? Are there other years that interchange? Thank for the help!

The car is a 1970 Dodge Dart. This is NOT about the readily available trim clips that bolt on at the bottom of the back window!!! On my C pillar the trim is secured by odd screws that the trim clips directly over the head. Below are some pics of the old rusted screws that came out. Again...

I am looking for a source for some odd screws for the installation of the C-pillar vinyl top trim for my 70 Dart. These screws are not seen when the trim is in place (not the chrome phillips screw at the side window end), but rather odd screws with a raised head that the trim actually pops onto...
