Glad to hear that so far, things are looking positive in the face of perceived challenges. I am about to reach out to the vendor through the contact info I was given. Before I do, can anyone who's purchased the ventshades update this thread as to the delivery or progress of their order?

I didn't have time to watch and listen to the whole thread, but yes, lots of excellent trivia stuffed into his brain, and a few errors would be permissable! Admirable, for sure!

Me too - he's had a rough go recently. Regardless, he said that power disc brakes were standard on the 68 300, and they were not, if I recall correctly.

OK, how do we do this? Shall we continue vai PM?

I have an excellent low mileage 66 4 door sedan rear window gasket (with a window still in it!) but I don't think it would fit.

Might he have any 1966 Chrysler Town and Country wagon sets by chance?

Glad you've got that one too.

...and there you have it. Suspicion confirmed. 1966 Polara deck lid does NOT have the recessed area that will take 1966 Monaco tail lights.

Trying to make sure I understand your question correctly... The rear TAIL LIGHTS in a 1966 Polara or Monaco are interchangeable, but with some caveats... 1966 POLARA rear 1966 MONACO rear As far as I know, the Monaco outer tail lights will bolt into a Polara, and vice versa. The caveat...

Pedal set will work from 65-68. Booster from 65 - 69 or mid 70.

I revised my post - there shouldn't be too much play, so it's possible the internals are worn.

I'm not so sure a shim in there would be a good idea - there needs to be some play in that a coupler by design. Regardless, the parts that are in there. Now could very well have worn out and the job to replace them there's not that particularly challenging, although getting it off the spline...

The weight is to be low when the valve inside is open. The thermo-spring pulls the weight up when it's cold, and relaxes when warm, so the weight drops (rotates actually, due to gravity), and in the process, the valve is opened inside the manifold. New heat riser parts are available here...

Welcome! Rare export car with kilo speedo! Nice!

That was my thinking as well. The sheet metal screws get loose where they go through the firewall. A star washer that bites into the paint can help, but I found that running a ground wire was just good insurance regardless.
