I have 67 column and had to bush that puppy to get it to fit. 67 has a larger tube though. You can see I split the bushing to make it fit. A couple of set screws should do it.

gallon of red line diff oil, diff oil drain kit, small block K to BB engine mounts.

2005 Ram diesel - heater core, ac evaporator, blend door. And if that isn't a big enough job, also ordered a new 2 piece exhaust manifold, gaskets and stud kit because the original cracked and broke a bolt off in the head while on vacation.
 
Hood mounted turn signal wire retainers.

I have never seen those before. Can you tell me where you found them? I'd be curious if they were used on later A bodies. (1971) Thanks.
 
I got these from AMS Obsolete, the former Mitchell Motor Parts. They have a couple other businesses under their umbrella, including Herb's parts and Charger Specialties. I got them off Ebay, didn't see them on their webpage. There aren't any more listed. I may have gotten the last of them. Or call them and ask. I've had good luck with them on the phone.

Classic Industries lists them as out of stock/obsolete.

I don't know if they were used on later A-Bodies. I can't find a picture or part number anywhere in the manuals. From what I can tell, they were used to hold the hood mounted turn signal wires to the firewall and underside of the hood.

New distributor, car currently has a Pertronix (I think) and the vacuum advance isn't working so I'm changing over the OEM electronic ignition.

I think I exposed a rabbit hole.

Thank you for the links. I will check into this and see what years they were used for. Thank you again! Lou

I believe only the Barracuda had hood mounted indicators and used those clips. Other models and later years had fender mounted indicators and didn't need the clips.

That is a big job. I had to do that job twice on my 06, which is a bit more difficult than doing a 2003-2005. I had to pull the entire dash out (have to on an 06) to replace my doors and then about two years later had to do it again to do the evap coil.
