    Let's Play a game: What's this Part?

    Recently I have seen a lot of "What's this part?" questions, so I thought I'd start a thread where they can be kept together and periodically updated with the answers. I myself have helped others ID something, sometimes running to the garage to snap a pic that might be helpful. Others have...

    OEM Road Wheels Tire Size

    Apologies to adding to the 100’s of posts on tire size, but in my effort to find the correct tire pressure decal for my 1970 300 ‘vert, I realize I first have to find out what the original tire size was included on the optional road wheels. I’ve checked the data book, the trim book and the...

    1970 300 Convertible Top Cylinders and Frame Connection

    Ok, I have thumbed through the assembly manuals and the FSM and the internet, but I cannot find a picture or diagram of how the power top cylinders connect to the top frame. Does anyone have a pic of or an FSM page number where I can find this information? I'm also missing a small spring...

    So I test drove this one today…

    …very impressive. Waking up the 6.4 on a wet road, not so smart, but the traction control kicked in and it just launched. So much better than the Chally R/T I drove last year. Now the trick is finding an extra $53k in spare change…

    Dead Man’s Curve

    Big show this weekend in North Jersey, 3000+ cars. Mostly modified and Hot Rods, but I did find a number of Mopars. The first one I came across looked familiar, lol. Here are some pics:

    Power Antenna Help Needed

    So I’m attempting to gather all the parts to install the power antenna in my 1970 300 vert project, and am stumbling on the size of the antenna to fender bezel. Years ago I picked up what I thought was the correct bezel, but it is from 1969, part number 2926320. The hole in my fender is larger...

    The Tale of Two Grills

    Regarding the 1970 Chrysler 300, can someone shed light on when the flat black or the Argent accented grill was used? I have looked at dozens of photos, and comparing the SPD or the engine type, be it TNT or standard hp, there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when it was applied. I am...

    Chrysler Trim Clips And Fasteners

    Is there a resource that lists the various trim clips and fasteners with part numbers? I have both the paper and the electronic version of the parts book and have searched here and online but all I can find is the part number for a trim clip that goes with a molding, but have no clue as to what...

    1970 440 Choke Cup Gasket

    Apparently I need one for the 1970 intake manifold, but they are *gasp* $55! Looks like a composite, like an exhaust manifold gasket, can I just make one or is this special? Without it, the whole inside chamber of the intake is exposed. Any suggestions without spending 55 times what this...

    1970 Ignition Lock Bezel

    Ok, very confused by this one. I’m rebuilding my steering column and using the parts of various columns to make one good one. I’m replacing the ignition lock with one that has keys, since I didn’t want to mess with tumbler pins, then I notice this. The chrome one is from my vert, 1970 300...

    Mystery Tool Help Needed

    Ok, I’m completely stumped on this one. It came out of a tool box from a long time Chrysler mechanic. It is about 8 inches long, but weighs close to 10 lbs. There are numbers on it, but nothing shows up with a web search. Any ideas??

    Brake Pedal

    I thought I’d do something easy this morning, like choose which of the three brake pedal assmblies I will instal in the vert. Of course, what seems easy, is never easy. I have two from 1970 and one from 1973. The upper mounting bracket is the same on all three, the ‘73 requiring the least...

    Warranty Block Question

    How could you tell it's a "warranty block"? I see the blank pad, but how do you know the seller didn't simply machine it and clean off the VIN?

    I’m a sucker for paper mags. C body articles are far and few between so they got my $6.

    Another Happy Customer

    Ok, so I sold the ‘73 Chrysler fenders to a member here, and he picked them up today. I had to post because he showed up in a 2000 2 door Honda Civic! I’m thinking, no way, right? I would never have believed it! Another happy customer! Thanks again Kevin!
