    Road wheel black paint

    Trying to find out if anyone produces the black wheel paint used on the road wheels for my 70 Chally. My wheels are like the Magnum 500 but with the trim rings. The black paint is faded and aged and I want to duplicate it as much as I can. Was the original sheen more of a flat or satin or semi...

    Found a broadcast sheet 1970 Challenger R/T V code

    Had my seats out for upholstery and just got them back. I have photocopies of my original broadcast sheet but the original itself was lost as the car changed hands, or so I was told. When the upholstery shop said they found one I assumed it was for my car but it wasn't. Probably a long shot but...

    WANTED: 1970 dated LH 383 exhaust manifold #2951865

    Good day all. Been searching for some time now for the correct exhaust manifold I need for my 70 Challenger RT SE 383 engine. I'm in need of casting #2951865 (I have 2951216 which is correct I believe for a C-body?) for the LH driver side. Would like to keep as original as possible and not use...

    Pulley/Harmonic Balance question....

    Making pretty good progress on my Challenger and the 383. Started dressing it and it's going good. I recall when I removed the pulley from the harmonic balance it was missing a bolt. Didn't think much of it at the time but I see why. Can't seem to get it lined up (I'm guessing that's why the...

    Exhaust Manifold ID

    Getting ready to put the manifolds back on my '70 Challenger 383 engine on the stand & for the life of me I can't find the heat stove/shield I took off. Anyway, started doing some research and I'm not sure I have the correct E-body manifolds? This one seems alright.... This is the one...

    Rocker Panel Question

    Was down checking on my 70 Challenger at the body shop yesterday. Got the front lower section of the rear quarter cut out where it was pretty bad. Going to put a replacement panel in but noticed that behind the cutout section it's pretty crusty. May just clean it up with sandblasting but now I'm...

    Disc Brake Conversion question

    So I've made the decision to convert from power drum to power disc brakes on my 70 Challenger, at least in the front initially. However, I'm getting some confusing info from some of the suppliers that is not consistant and was wondering if you guys might know the answer. As I mentioned, I...

    Fan clutch removal on 383

    So I'm quite rusty and stumped a bit...sorry if this seems like a silly question. I'm pulling the 383 out of my '70 Challenger before it heads to the body shop for a winter repaint.
