Wow, these things are growing on trees:D Very interesting, a local Pittsburgh car with very similar options to mine & also from the Belvidere plant. This one was originally buffed silver with red interior so not quite the identical twin. Notice it doesn't have the two firewall supports near the...

See post #9 here. I am 100% positive these are the correct ones. https://www.forcbodiesonly.com/mopar-forum/threads/firewall-cut-out.82362/

Cool car in really nice shape! :welcome: I'd go with an original carb as used on '65 slants, Holley 1920, very reliable & economical.

Beautiful work! That AAR is just screaming for a 4-speed:)

My old TNT Newport came from the factory with painted wheels, whitewalls, & the rare Chrysler caps. I really liked the looks. It also had power windows & seats. It was special ordered by a farmer in Fargo, ND.

No, the seam is higher on the '67 as compared to '68.

Looks straight, rust free, & stock. Could use carpet & headliner. https://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/cto/d/phoenix-1972-chrysler-newport-royale/7837373553.html Selling my 1972 Chrysler Newport Its a fun car to drive 6.6 motor in it I just changed the oil Just installed a new brake master...

Here's a couple of 1968 Monaco 500s on this site that have the belt molding code but no molding. Perhaps they just spun a roulette wheel to decide whether to install.

Did a quick Google image search & couldn't find a single 500 with the moldings. Did find an amazing example that sold on auction for $21k (a steal IMHO) but don't know how long ago. They claim only 24 500 L-code convertibles were built which is plausible...

My books also indicate the "0" is a body side belt molding, complete option code 540. However, the sales literature does not indicate that is even an available option on the 500 or any Polara. Apparently it came as standard equipment on all Polaras except the 500. I think it's just an anomaly...

Is that right? The brochures show the 500 without moldings & lower level Polaras with. It does appear to have optional fender turn signal indicators.

Those should work but I'd be inclined to get a complete kit with the mopar bullseye caps & lug nuts. Look for free shipping.

The place I had my spacers made is long gone but I'm sure there are lots of places that could make them. The specs I used were: 3/8" thick ID (hub) 2.820" OD 6.200" 1/32" chamfer on one or both sides of ID (the hub has a little radius to it) I don't know what the ARP studs were, they were a...

Very nice video. Wonder what the trunk looks like under the mat? Finding a nice straight/ unrusted fender in original R6 red will be like finding a rainbow pot of gold. They must have bounced it good to bust the T-bar.
