Just got these beauties in!! They are going to look SO good on the 68! I also got these factory style caps for 68 too… Though I feel that these are kinda ugly, at the same time they’re cool because they’re original and would give my car a period correct “stock” look. Everyone I’ve shown...

Well cruising season is brewing here in Southern California. There’s been car shows almost every week here in Santa Maria!! Lots of beautiful cars, still no Mopars. I did well and recently scored a set of disc brake hubcaps! While browsing Instagram I came across a Lowrider 77 New Yorker...

We are pretty much done with the brake lines up front !! Didn’t get the chance to take pics before I left, but they are where they need to be. Now the challenge is to find the right soft hose for the calipers. My New Yorker was originally a Drum / Drum car but I’ve since upgraded to a ‘73 style...

As I’m starting to regain momentum on my neglected 68, I’ve shifted focus to (in my opinion) the most IMPORTANT system of them all - the braking system. I was lucky enough to score a set of 72 disc brakes for my car and they’ve been connected almost 2 years now. However, now that it’s time to...

Call me crazy, but I guess sometimes it’s nice to embrace modern convenience and perhaps even more practical technology than the aging technology of yesteryear. I guess what I’m saying is, a guy put an idea into my head that actually makes sense and sounds pretty cool if done properly. Someone...

Things have been slowly but surely gaining momentum on the 68. As you may recall, we finally got it running, and more than that - running GOOD! Take a look-see here, after our friend helped me tune her up (for now.) I am now turning my focus onto other things like getting my wiring in order...

So now I've been making a little "punch list" of things to buy once I get the '62 300 home in Santa Maria. So far I've acquired the FMJ body front disc brake setup that many of our fellow Moparians have added to a number of '57-'64 Mopars. Pretty excited about that, and with the right caliper...

Got all my bearings packed proper, and calipers rebuilt! The anti rattle clip was a little difficult to get on. Wondering if I put it on right?

Hi all, I'm at the point now where I can refresh the 1972 C-Body disc brake setup I was able to get from Chris here on the forum! The setup is going to be installed on my 1968 New Yorker. I'm cleaning everything up and prepping all my parts for paint as we speak. I have NEVER in my life put disc...

I pulled this off of the ‘68 New Yorker. As you can see it’s a basic single diaphragm drum brake booster w/ matching drum MC. The question is, I don’t believe this is factory. I’ve posted about it on the C Body Mopar Owners group on FB but wanted to see what you thought here!! Also, is it a...

Simple question, on a 68 2DHT New Yorker, would 15x8 rims work?

Hello all, I’m really grateful to have a wealth of knowledge at my disposal here on the forums! Pardon my lack of knowledge as this is my first car ever that I’m building. We are so close to having my beautiful 68 New Yorker coupe on the road, but she DEFINITELY needs brakes. It’s been sitting...
