    400 vs 440 in a 76-78 New Yorker - noticeable difference?

    Well, my 75 was born with a 400-2. Though it never seemed down on power at 185, I wanted a 4 bbl. So that's what I did. New intake and carb. The car doesn't really pick up steam till about 40 or so. But, when it does...away we go! Passing power is much improved. Now as far as a 440, I have no...

    76 NYB aftermarket question.

    Spectra CR22A, is offered and available through Rock Auto, I put one in my car and it fit perfect. Why anyone would go to the trouble in a "show car" is beyond me.

    Windshield wiper control arms on 2dr New Yorker

    My Royal is a 75, should be the same cowl. Pull up gently on the front, and slide out. The stainless trim will have to come off. When you get into the assembly, if its just laying in the cowl like mine was when I bought it. The arm that connects the two pivots. The bend faces up. It can be...

    1977 Gran Fury Police Car Project?

    The best way to make a small fortune on a car, spend a big one on it. That said don't look at it as an investment. Hobbys rarely are anyway. If your dad is still with us, work on it with him. If he has gone on, make it a tribute to him. There are still parts out there, you'll need a factory...

    Has anyone ever won a car show with their C body?

    I entered my 75 Royal and 70 El Camino last year at a charity event. I had the only El Camino and only one of two 70s full size sedans. The other was a 77 Continental that had more plastic in it than any of the Kardashian's. Didn't even get noticed. I'll never enter one again. I'll go and drink...

    Broadcast sheet for my 1975 Royal Monaco

    Here it is a piece of paper, that at the same time, tells me everything and nothing about my car. For instance, why not just an "x" in the lines where an option is marked? What do the numbers mean? How do I decipher it? Sure I already know what the car was built with, well anyway here it...

    9.25 Sure Grip Axle Problems

    Get it hot, take the plate off twist the drive shaft and see what's loose or broken. I'd bet to see it, it won't need to be hot though.

    1975 Imperial barn find Odd Trim tag 5 series

    Old car prices are based on Auction results generally. How many of these go up for auction in any given year? So, go on values other members have paid for their cars. Or at least get close. I paid 5k for my 75 Royal Monaco, 44,062 miles, and I knew it ran, drove, and stopped. The only item that...
