Through the years I've had 4 speeds, 62 Impala 327 4 speed, 64 Chevelle 327 4 speed, 65 GTO 389 4 speed, and a 70 Cuda 340 4 speed. My current (and last) Cuda has a TF 727 with a street friendly stall converter and a B&M transpak installed and at my age I don't miss the 4 speeds at all.
I was at Barnes and Nobles earlier and asked if they had Donald Trumps new book on how to deport illegal immigrants.. The lady with purple hair at the register said “Get the **** out of here and don't come back!” I said, “yep, that’s the one!” :rofl:

You should be able to get the center bolts at a parts store. We always had them in stock at the Car Quest I used to work at. If they don't have them in stock they can order them for you. They will be oversized in length and once the springs are bolted together you cut off the excess threaded...

I used the aftermarket ones similar to what pschlosser posted in my Cuda. I welded a tab inside the rear side panels and mounted the retractor there out of sight with the shoulder belt coming up through the hole in the rear panel where the little ash try was. I definitely suggest you get the...
THIS^^^^^^ right here! I did alignments at a dealership back in the 70's. A lot of the guys doing alignments now are like parts counter guys, if they can't punch an exact year, make and model into a computer they are lost!
Something no one else has brought up is that these cars have an issue...
I'm the same height as Xcudame and the seat in my 70 Cuda (and the one before this one) goes back far enough for me. I would pull the seat out and see what's going on with the track for that seat.
If you're talking about the radiator overflow tank, I have a 1 quart with my 5.7 hemi. I live in the desert southwest and the 1 quart tank has always worked for me.
