    Carter 6903 fuel pump blow through

    Took the Mistress out for the last ride of the year in November of last year. The ride was great, so I thought. A day later there was a strong odor of gas and a puddle of gas behind the passengers rear tire right where the fuel return line enters the rear frame rail. I thought that was odd, it...

    AC restoration or vintage air?

    Hello Katfish I ordered the expansion valve from E-bay. Classic auto air also sells one. The price was more not including shipping. The E-bay one was cheaper including the shipping. The link is below for the one I bought and who I bought it from. 65-74 Mopar B-Body & E-Body A/C EXPANSION VALVE...

    AC restoration or vintage air?

    I had to go down this exact route with my Barracuda. I had my original heater box/evaporator rebuilt many years ago before Vintage air etc. were around so I did not want to spend that money again. My car was a 318 and now a 440 6bbrl so I could not use the RV2 style compressor. I upgraded to a...

    Steps installating interior

    My advice to making any holes for visors, seat belt holes etc. is to take lots of pictures before installing the headliner. Add making tape with measurements and arrows showing from where you measured, then take the picture. When you need to make any holes, don't use a razor, use a soldering...

    70 challenger cruise control/ directional lever install??

    Doesn't the steering column separate just below the directional? There are 3 philips head screws and that section comes off. They you can add the plug intact and snake it down the column. I don't remember disconnecting my wires from the plug when I reinstalled the cruise control/directional switch.

    70 Challenger Steering Issues

    If the problem occurred right after the pitman arm was replaced, I would look there first. You may have over tightened the bolt that attaches it to the subframe. If I remember correctly, I think my pitman arm had a sleeve inside the rubber and would only tighten to the length of the sleeve. I...

    Defroster Vents

    Cars with A/C had a rubber seal that would partially close that gap. You could add some sheet style rubber cut into a strip and then wrap the larger opening to close that gap which would increase the defroster air flow. If you do add some rubber, only attach it to the upper or lower piece and...

    Defroster Duct and AC vacuum grommet

    The line that goes through the firewall to the engine is connected at the rear of the intake manifold. There should be a vacuum fitting threaded into the manifold facing the firewall with a port for the heater box vacuum. If you have power brakes then there will be two ports on the vacuum fitting.

    Lug Stud Recommendation

    Years ago I bought my lug studs from Year One. I'm sure other sites will have them also.

    Molding Carpet to 4 Speed Hump

    I read that you are going to install the headliner so I would definitely buy the handheld steamer from Harbor Freight. My buddy and I spent a lot of time getting every wrinkle out of the headliner and then we used the steam on one spot we couldn't get unwrinkled. Guess what, the steam took that...

    Challenger dash speaker size

    No, I can't really hear the front speakers unless the car is off. Had I known that, I probably would have not spent any money on speakers for the front. I also do not have an amplified system.

    Molding Carpet to 4 Speed Hump

    I bought a hand held steamer unit from Harbor Freight that helped with relaxing my carpet and headliner. They are cheap and worth it. I would not use any direct heat from above (like a heat lamp) because you may melt the carpet fibers by mistake.

    Challenger dash speaker size

    I have a 3 speaker dash also and my speakers were dry rotted. So I bought speakers that I thought would fit, they didn't. Mostly the problem is the size of the magnets on the back of new speakers. The original speaker magnets are small. The new speakers were also to tall for the speaker grills...

    In need of a measurement

    This is what I would build to move the car around. I made similar dolly for the front of my car. I bought large casters from Harbor Freight and some metal from a local metal shop, welded it together and it worked great. These dollies for the rear of the car bolt to the rear leaf spring front...
