    Need to get rear quarter patch panels. Where's the best place to get them?

    With engine and transmission done, I decided to start on body stuff. Got rust-through in the LH rear quarter and about a 1/4" of bondo. Decided it's be best to just cut it out and replace it. Got two questions: First, my car is a '72 dart custom 4-door. Are the 2-door quarters the same? (I'm...

    Back of the hood won't go down.

    I left the hood off for a couple months with the hinges in the up position. When I put the hood back on a few days ago, the rear of the hood won't come down. Looks like the guys with a tall intake but a stock hood. haha I'm guessing it's because the springs were relaxed for so long that they...

    Anyone try speed-tape for front signal reflectors?

    I'm restoring my spare '71 dart grill. Still removing the factory paint with a scotch-brite currently. (Holy crap does that suck, haha) Anywho, I'm thinking about putting speed-tape (basically aluminum tape with super adhesive) in the turn signal recesses to act as reflectors for the light. I...

    Anyone try colour-matching their dart's grille?

    I've almost finished shaving my front side markers and about to order a new valance so paint time is just around the corner. I have a '71 grille on my '72 and I've been playing around with the idea of painting the parts that would normally be silver to match the body colour. I'm just having a...

    Getting the front "wing/vent" windows to seal agains the door?

    Not long after I bought my '72 four-door, I noticed water in the front doors are washing it. I figured it was just the lower window seals and didn't think much of it since I've got some time before the rainy season. Turns out, the leak is actually a sizable gap between the bottom rubber frame...

    Any repro stainless trim manufacturers?

    About a month ago, I finally made my way back to mopar with the purchase of a '72 Dart four door. It was a swingin' deal and it's in really great condition save for some front fender damage, but two new fenders were included in the deal. One other thing is that, while it had all the exterior...
