    Josh Gates and the Raiders of the Lost Production Records

    Thanks for digging that up John. Couldn't have said it better myself. Oh wait, I DID say it!!!!!!!!!!! People who post stuff like "This ' 71 'Cuda in banana yellow is one of TWO built with a 340 and a 4speed are COMPLETELY full of ****! Chrysler didn't track cars by colour and powertrain...

    Josh Gates and the Raiders of the Lost Production Records

    I have explained this so many times before I refused to write it all out again. Somebody needs to find the old post and stick it here too. A whole lot of nonsense in some of the posts above. No fire. No flood. Not "Lost" in the sense they were misplaced. I've had several chats with Brandt...

    '67 C body production info aka "How many?"

    Kudos to you for sharing this information. I have a number of years of those Ward's Annuals, and when you go through them carefully, you realize that what they're printing is Calendar Year information, not model year information. So it's not exactly useless, but almost. The earliest SG30s I'm...

    NOT MINE 1976 NYB

    WTF is a "Safe Point Inpsection" and why is it $400 bucks? Lots and lots of kitchy stuff done to the car, which, thankfully can mostly be undone. Further posters speculation is likely correct. There's no front bumper rubber bits at the outer ends on cars built for the Great White North...

    Questions on timing chain and oil slinger

    I put a double roller chain and CNC machined gears in a /6. At certain RPMs when the engine is at maximum torque, I can hear the cam gear ring very gently. I love the sound.

    suspension

    This is hilarious! Why on earth would anyone want to take out the original torsion bar suspension to put in a variation of the bent-bar front end design from Fbodies? The whole thing is going to be riding in four pucks. If they're rubber, they're going to squirm and that makes for some really...

    Ever see brake booster like this?

    This type of booster was used a lot in the early '60s by Chrysler because it could be mounted anywhere, and as you can see it pushes the fluid itself and not the brake pedal. It's also commonly used on school buses that don't have air brakes.

    My new to me 1971 Paisley Imperial

    Any idea who put that vinyl top on? Chrysler sure as hell didn't.

    Brakes creaking? What's the spring the encircles the drum for ? 57 Belvedere

    That spring is a vibration dampener. If it's not there the brake drum can howl like a banshee.

    what is best oil to use on 1978 Chrysler with 400 engine?

    Depends on whether your definition of "best" is the most expensive or the least expensive. Most expensive is any of the name brand oils that advertise they're full of zin and manganese and are the cat's *** for flat tappet engines. The least expensive is to use your choice of modern oil (which...
