If I recall the trunk carpet from ACC had sewn edges on them, but the problem with their carpeting I found was you couldn't purchase a single piece of trunk carpeting that would cover the entire floor. Two were needed. The factory carpet was one piece. As for the edges, I didn't do anything to...

Thanks for that. That gives me something to look into. My original PS gear was still bolted to the pitman arm, center link AND idler arm when I moved them as a unit to the new stub frame. I think the idler arm felt stiff, but I don't know if I tightened it in the center position. I have 3...

I'm still here. I started the Plymouth the other day, which did fire up on all cylinders, surprisingly. It's currently a storage shed for some engine pieces. If this winter is mild I need to get back to finishing up the trunk floor and a few other bodywork niknaks.

Any leads would be appreciated

Hello! I'm in search of new gaskets for windshield replacements for 4 door 60' Dodge Phoenix. Also looking for any spare parts.

Didn't need to do anything with the edges. Auto carpet doesn't fray or come apart on the edges easily and being in the trunk, you aren't dragging your feet across the edges or things like that. You can sew a vinyl edge on it, or maybe even get a home carpet place to serge the edge. Mine has...

Self-centering on these systems was aided by the idler arm bushing. It is not supposed to act like a bearing, the rubber is supposed to flex when the steering wheel is turned. You install it by loosening the bolt, then centering the steering, then tightening the bushing bolt again. Some...

On the mat that was in my '70 Monaco Brougham, all edges of the OEM trunk carpet were sewn with a solid edge-protecting stich. Which would be expensive to do, as it was about 1/2" wide and was solid, side-by-side, for the full perimeter of the mat. To keep the mat edges from coming apart. What...

Must sell my '63 Imperial Crown Coupe due to buying a new home with no room! Only 757 of this coupe model made, it is a driver / survivor and is original aside from the paint which was done very well. It sat for over 15 years in an underground car collection and I have done an appreciable...

If you're working with a clean slate and deciding between the vinyl trunk mat or carpet, carpet may be a faster and less expensive solution. In addition, the vinyl mats are prone to trapping water which leads to the dreaded rusty trunk pan. This link shows what I used when replacing the rear...

My wife's. Had it 14 years now. She will never give it up.

I also likely have some from a '68, but it sounds like @Rainy Day has you taken care of there.

For additional context on the 727s, you'll find two sets of numbers on the driver's side of the housing, just above the pan. One is the part number. On the pre-1968 transmissions, there is a second 7-digit number and that is NOT a date code as you'll find many people stating. Date coding, an...

Easy to extend them later.

This gives me a perfect excuse to show @Samplingman my bowling ball bag. Again. For maybe the tenth time! :rofl:

That was an error on my part. I didn't specify that that I wanted them further towards the back. But they should've known right...
