Your Monaco is worth more than you think. Even if you are not driving it yet storing in your garage, get it insured NOW! What if the...

    NOT MINE 1966 Chrysler 300 383-4bbl $19.5 CAD / $14.2k USD Winnipeg MB

    I know these cars very well as I revived one for a good friend of mine. The majority of them were 383 4bbl since it was more of an upscale model from the Windsor Only 2838 Canadian 4dr 300 sedans were built at the Windsor plant, and were not available in America. 1966 was the last model year...

    The Boab has developed 2 spots of bubbling..left side below rear window, and above left rear fender skirt. Nothing I can do about that as rain water drains in these areas. You all know the car was prepped to death, epoxied primed and all that but rust never sleeps.

    Frankie was painted in the late 80's/ early 90's when base/ clear technology was in its infancy. When we bought him some of the clear was peeling. Not as obvious 5 years ago, but now worse than ever..

    Meanwhile the cars are anxiously waiting. They are taking a beating 24/7 from being outside.. Maple trees are not kind to vinyl tops... Grace's older white vinyl top, and the Boab's black top.

    Vinyl Top "Conditioner"

    Sometimes you have to do some homework to justify what is more cost effective. If a headlamp assembly is 24.00, the time and cost of " restoring" a headlamp is not justified. Sure if the headlamp is in the hundred$$, gamble the money on a resto kit and hope for the best. Speaking from...

    The grade plus the hydro wire easements. The city would rather have the garage close to the house rather than encroach the hydro easment. We had to replace the pole to raise the wires. Then it took 2 years to contact the proper people from rhe phone and cable companies to get permission to build...

    NOT MINE 1967 IMPERIAL 4dr Sedan, 43K miles - Project - $5,995 - STERLING HEIGHTS, MI

    Despite being the lowest priced Imperial for 1967, Only 2193 Crown sedans were built. Even fewer survive today thanks to time, of course demo derbies and others donated their vital organs to B and E resto projects. The sedans provide a quiet and solid ride compared to the 4dr hardtops. ( read...

    Our paved driveway was old and got destroyed by the heavy trucks. We anticipated it would not survive so for now we have crushed stone and next summer we will get new pavement.

    High performance exhaust manifold coatings??

    I used Eastwood's manifold paint. You must follow their instructions to the "T". I sandblasted my HP logs, cleaned them and brushed on their paint. Took 7 years for them to turn color..lol

    WANTED 68’ 300 floor pans

    As a 68 Chrysler owner an had restored my car, It is best to fabricate your own pans. Or Locate good southern rust free pans from a parts car donor. The repop pans on E-pay are junk. Wrong thickness and more work to make them fit. Hope his helps.

    1968 Dodge Monaco - 383 2bbl - exhaust manifold leak

    If the studs break, no worries. Once the manifold is off, determine if there is enough meat/ threads left to double nut it, heat er up with a torch and twist her out. If broken flush with the head, using a mig welder build up some weld on the broken stud, weld a nut back on, again get her cherry...

    A lil ? 68 300 with a 70 383. Needs tlc

    If it aint broke.......dont fix it. Drive it as is and enjoy. Sure search for a good 440 core. Build it to 68 specs with some modern upgrades to run on today's corn whiskey they serve at the pumps. 70 383 heads should be 906's. But if they need refreshing, the cost of new aluminum heads is about...
