    Incremental sheet metal forming

    This new method of sheet metal forming could be the answer for restoration of old cars. We all need body panels, floors etc to replace rusty panels. This method uses a CNC controlled "printer' of sorts that can 3D shape sheet metal using a tool that slowly presses the metal into the shape that...

    1962 Chryslers in Canada

    I know this forum is cut off at 1961 but, Since the 62's are closely connected to the 61's I hope this topic will be OK here. The Chrysler model lineup was altered for 1962. The Windsor was gone, and the non letter 300 arrived. BUT! Not in Canada... Here in Canada, for some reason, the model...

    Rubber isolated stub frames interchange

    I have a 1971 Fury with a damaged stub frame. As far as I know the 70-73 rubber isolated stub frames are all the same, other than Imperial of course. I have a 1970 New Yorker parts car. I think that 70 New Yorker and 71 Fury stub frames should be identical. Anyone know for sure?

    1960 Polara US model VS Canadian model

    I have a 1960 Polara 2 door hardtop. This is a Canadian built car, and therefore has a number of differences from a US built car. Here's a few things that I noticed. 361 4 barrel engine. The US cars got the 383 4 barrel, but according to the Canadian service manual, all 122" wheelbase Dodges...

    1960 Cast iron trans swap to aluminum 727 with park

    I'm planning to swap out the cast iron transmission from my 1960 Polara, to a 1963-1964 aluminum 727. I'll be converting to a 1963 383 and 65-69 C body rear end with rear wheel park brakes at the same time. The question I have, is what's the simple solution for adding the park lever into the...

    Rust repair panels.

    Are there any reproduction rust repair panels available for the 60-64 Forward Look cars? Quarter panel patches, rockers etc? I've been into these cars for decades, but have yet to find any repro body panels other than the occasional misc piece. Specifically, wheel well area and lower quarter...

    headers that fit? Or better exhaust manifolds?

    Has anyone found headers that fit the 60-64 Big Block full size cars? I have a 1960 Chrysler Windsor that I plan to put in a 413 with long ram manifolds on, and I would like to add some headers, or at least some better flowing cast iron manifolds. Anyone have experience and suggestions? Thanks

    dual exhaust hangers pics and info needed

    On factory equipped dual exhaust Fuselage cars, I am wondering what the left side hangers looked like. There are no provisions for a hanger by the muffler, so I assume they had a bolt on hanger up on the shock crossmember, holding the tailpipe where it kicks up, similar to the one on the right...

    64 Dodge 880 383 4 speed

    Chrysler introduced the 833 4 speed transmission in 1964. It was available in B bodies, and the full size cars too. 1964 Chrysler 300's with 4 speeds aren't common, but they were built. Has anyone ever seen a real, original 4 speed 1964 880? Did Dodge ever install 413's in the 1964 880? How...

    Long ram cars. Inner fender access panels vs no access panels

    I thought I would start a separate thread about this. On the topic of 60-64 full size cars factory equipped with long ram intake manifolds. I have been researching the inner fender access panels located under the long rams. Most factory equipped long ram cars have inner aprons with removeable...

    interior soft trim sources for Forward Look cars?

    Besides SMS Auto Fabrics, are there any other sources for headliners and seat upholstery for our cars? I am doing a 60 Chrysler Windsor and need the correct white perforated headliner, and seat fabrics- or pre sewn upholstery, if there is any place that does this. I know Legendary does not

    EFI conversion with long ram manifolds?

    Has anyone tried it? I see Holley, FITech and others are making dual quad efi systems. I wonder how well this would work with the left and right banks being separate like the long rams are. I'm considering trying it

    Disc brakes using F, M, J spindles on 60-64 Chrysler

    I'm about to do a disc brake swap on a 60 Chrysler. I know the Aspen, Diplomat etc spindles and brakes are popular swap onto the 60-64 full size Mopars. I think the spindles and brakes from a 75-79 B body like Cordoba can also be used. I will be doing a manual master cylinder, so no booster...

    1998 NV3500 5 speed onto 392 Hemi

    Anyone done it? Having owned a 98 Dakota with a 5.2 Magnum-NV3500 5 speed-3.55 9 1/4" combo, I have been considering swapping this trans onto a 1958 392 Hemi for one of my Forward Look projects. While they don't shift as quick as a car transmission, they also don't have that long clunky feel of...

    61 Polaras, 62 Chryslers and 62-64 880's. Same but different

    Most people think the 62 Chrysler was a 61 Chrysler with the finned shaved off. But, the 62 Chrysler is actually a Dodge. OK, let me explain... When the 62 full size Dodges were dropped, being replaced with the new for 62 B bodies, Chrysler Corp decided to use up some Dodge parts to create...
