Welcome, RWCearley

[RWCearley]

There are about 6 wires on the back side. Im sure 1)one for power to clock (continious) 2) one for power for the display (switched) 3) one for ground.

Will test the circuits

Installed the engine bay wiring. Would like a close up pic of the wires going around the brake booster. If anyone could take a pic of this area would be greatly appreciated.

 

[RWCearley]

Installed the dash. Now just need to stuff everything inside it.

 

[RWCearley]

Installing the wires. Long and involved process. Electrical assembly manual helps.

Rear glass and windshield installed

 

[RWCearley]

GLass trim installed. Rear glass trim has some dents and other defects caused by a complete bozo many yrs ago who installed a vinyl top (when my brother owned the chrysler) managed to straighten out most of the dents and as such is presentable. Probably today a good set of window trim is almost impossible to find

installed the rear bumper with lights. The bumper has some issues. May in the future re-chrome the origional

While waiting on my speaker repair, i decided on working on the brakes. Ordered a mopar rear brake cylinder kit. Looking for a disc brake kit now. Have front brake pads. Will purchase some rear shoes. Plan to media blast the disc next.

Ordered brake hoses, rear shoes, wheel cylinder kits and disc kits. Will either have the drums and disc turned or will buy new ones.

Would be great if you could post more info on the parts that you buy, ideally with links. That way, others can benefit directly from the time that you spent picking the right items for your NYer.

If you decide to buy new rear drums, I'll be particularly interested in learning what you get. I may have to change the rear drums on one of my cars.

 

[RWCearley]

I generally search the internet. Ebay has most of the parts and sometimes you can find mopar parts. NAPA had the disc seals but not the pistons. Also had a set of rear shoes.

I try to stay away from chinese made seals and cylinders. Chinese cylinder parts dont last. Chines rotors and drums appear ok.

Welcome!

 

[RWCearley]

Some brake parts came in. Seals and shoes are chinese made. Brake hoses are USA made. Rear brake hose is somewhat different but I believe it will work.

Love the color and this build, great job!

Front disc calipers are restored with new pistons and seals. Took some time to figure out how to install the dust seal. First install the square cut seal in the caliper. Lube this seal with a light grease. Then install it dust seal(no lube) on the piston such that bottom of the seal can be installed in the caliper. Took about an hour for the first one, 15 min for the second. Learning curve. Tested both calipers using compressed air. No leaks.

Center speaker was repaired. Now on to finishing the electrical

 

[RWCearley]

Working on the dash again

 

[RWCearley]

Mopar rear wheel cylinders came in

 

[RWCearley]

Had to remove the instrument cluster to fit the wires and vac. tubes. Thought i would have room to fit the wires after installation. Not the case.
