    Power antenna conversion

    I got a car cover for Christmas (yay) for my '73 Newport. However, because of the original 1 piece antenna mast, I must make a hole in the cover for it to fit. I don't really want to do that. So my options are: A) power antenna, B) an antenna with a spring at the bottom and/or a swivel ball...

    Interchangeable window parts

    Okay, I'm about to bite the bullet big time, interior overhaul: sound system (90% purchased, need grommets & wires), aftermarket gauges (purchased), carpet & dead-liner insulation (purchased), seat covers & extra material for door skins ($900 saved back, another $100 for taxes & shipping).

Before I click Add To Cart, I wanted to check back here to confirm the fit. It seems that sometime ago, someone...

    Fendertop signal lights

    My driver's side light is raised up maybe a quarter inch or so. It won't stay down. Is there a clip I'm missing? If so, where do I find one? Is there an alternative to securing my fendertop blinker light indicator besides glue, epoxy or silicone?

    Big block power steering

    Okay, so I'm rebuilding my 400. Got it painted and partially assembled. Just got the brackets and assorted small parts back from the powder coaters today. Even got a seal kit for the power steering pump. But like a dumbass, I forgot to take pics of the motor before it came apart. I'm at...
