I arrived safely at home last evening & hope everyone else who was headed back did likewise. Did have to regrease & adjust a front wheel bearing before leaving South Bend. Thanks again to @david hill for the assistance. That finishes up a 4 week stretch where I drove the '65 just about 2200...

The Michigan/Ohio crew just finished lunch in Sturgis and is about to head West.

1" cut off wheels and a Dremel tool work to make the access holes as well. While I do agree that the springs should be treated with caution, my experience is that with the regulator and the glass in place in the car, things don't move much. The spring wants to push up, gravity wants to pull...

I knew the general location immediately, but took a few minutes to narrow down the exact bridge.

I suspect that the 2 door New Yorkers use the same weatherstripping as the 4 door hardtops.

Unfortunately, the FSM is clear as mud on this. With the selector lever in Neutral, "Gently pull outward on the cable housing to its limit of travel, release and then tighten the clamp bolt to 10 inch-pounds torque." I assume when the cable, the transmission and the internal spring were new...

Just to verify, since we have folks in 2 time zones, that is 1 pm Eastern Daylight Time, correct?

Thank you again for hosting the event. I had a great time. Here's some more pictures.

Been here since about 9:30 am. Weather has been fine except for a pretty good shower about 3:00, but it seems to be done. Quite a few big Mopars this year.

They work. They don't park properly, but they do work

I'm hoping to make it over, but the weather is looking a little sketchy all weekend.

Drilling that bracket looks like it would work, and was my plan B, but I was able to get a good used one, so didn't have to try.

On my '65 when I put the car in park, the column shift lever has to be pushed firmly to the left or the park pawl doesn't engage. I know that the cable can be adjusted slightly in or out where it goes into the housing on the transmission, but am not sure which way will cause the pawl to engage...

Congrats on the little assistant. :) As far as the engine sitting, I get your concern, but these things are pretty tough. My '65 sat for all of 2015-16. I think I ran it out of gas, and definitely disconnected the battery. No problem getting it going in the spring of 2017.

As someone who has been driving a perpetual project for more than 20 years, I love this! The amount of progress you have made is very impressive.

I appreciate the offer. I'm going to check with a shop here in town on Monday, but if that doesn't work out, will get back with you.

No, I've got the correct coupler, I just put the bolts in like that to show the angle between the two shafts...

Checking off some small projects this week on my '65 Chrysler and thought I would replace the rubber coupling in the steering shaft. Should be simple, right? :rolleyes: Instead, I've noticed two things which may or may not be problems, and may be related? First, the steering box & its shaft...
