Happy Veterans Day to all veterans

Thank you for posting CL43L1C148688 -- great color! The upholstery looks very good, the lower mileage (i.e., the odometer has not turned over) is a possibility -- though I am puzzled in that case by the steering wheel. A picture of the pedals would help. Do you have photos of the trunk pan...

Hello C-body folks, I have a solid mostly original Newport w/383 and Torqueflight showing 44,673 miles. Most likely 144,673. My father bought the car from the original owner in 1995. He drove it for about a year and parked it. The car sat untouched until 2020 when he gave it to me. I went...

Splash guards are sold, will be shipping them as soon as we are back home from Florida. This is the final week. What's not sold is headed to thr dumpster. I don't have the room to keep the parts from all these cars. I just pull what's good and list it. If no takers it goes. Friday to...

Idler arms are a pain in the butt. All these rubber bushed arm have some play in them going down the road. That's a bad thing, we don't want that. New 1964 New Yorker arms are slim pickens. So, I've been rebushing the frame mount swing end with new rubber kits. But that doesn't always make an...

Join me in welcoming @mattieb505 to FCBO.

I don't know... It's worth a look. @jet1969 You can get a copy of the parts manual at MyMopar No '71 service manual though.

I have to correct myself... My 300L does have a vinyl edging and I think it was replaced somewhere along the line, but not really sure. This car was equipped with the trunk dress up. Linkage for auto-pilot is sitting there (gotta try to get that hooked up) and the rear mounted power antenna.

The appropriate model year Chrysler Parts Manual probably has an exploded view of the seat items, too. CBODY67

When I bought the Monaco, it was in 1975 and it was used with about 83K miles on it. Totally "normal" and unmolested. Having been bought new by a higher-line female department store employee and then owned by her daughter for a few years. It did have a trailer hitch in its earlier years, but...

I use Joe Gibbs Driven 5W-30 oil that I buy from Hughes Engines. Has done well through 3 years of use in a rebuilt 440, 9.2:1 compression. Street use, not driven in winters

if someone could but eyes on this for me ,(pr knows someone who could, please PM me and see what i can work out. thanks.

From my '70 FSM (I don't have a digital '71). This should be close enough, but look in your '71 Factory Service Manual for more.

Do you think there were side panels at some time? The trunk dress up packages I've seen always have black cardboard. I'll have to take a pic of my 300L.

Mine has a plastic like backing on it like other auto carpet, but not quite as nice as most, but still that same backing. This is why I specify "auto carpet". I took a pic of the backing. I found a plain vinyl one for an RV or Jeep. Another eBay deal. Then I cut a round piece of plywood to...

Yea man it's a clean car looks like everything is there figured I'd post it maybe someone will pick it up for only 3500 it's a steal

Looks like it might be a mis-placed/hidden rh seat recliner spring mechanism? The actual recliner pivot mechanism would be at the base of the seat back, with the spring mechanism giving it the motion so it didn't flop backward uncontrollably when the recliner was adjusted. Obviously, it's...

C pillars repaired. Rain gutters are going to stay and get extended onto the Corvette Targa top. Lexan goes in tomorrow (assuming I can cut it without screwing it up LOL)... Rear "glass" trim will go back on. I REALLY like it! Top and bottom trim. no problem... Side/upper corner, problem as...

The OEM trunk carpet in my Monaco did have serging all around it, factory. Looked really nice, carpet and serge were black. As was the spare tire cover. No cardboard side panels. No vinyl spray backing on the carpet, either. I looked the other night, (seems like it was REM?) and found...
