I checked 2 of my pretty much untouched original 68 Coronet parts cars and they both have the rivets. They've got to be factory.

j-c-c-62 it is hard to see in the photo but I do have about 1/2" of thread protruding from the top of the nut. I do like your idea with the stover nut, it even resembles the factory nut more. Only reason I put the bolt up through the K frame is because it appears from looking at my parts cars...

I recently got a replacement 1969 B body idler arm from PST. New arm is unlike the original in that it comes with a nylon lock nut to hold the bolt to the K frame. My question is, when I go to tighten the lock nut on the bolt, it's either loose or so tight you can barely move it. What am I...

Thanks for the info. !!

Thanks khryslerkid, what I am seeing there appears to be the upper bearing near the column shift gearshift indicator. I am looking for the bearing on the lower end of the column.

Hi Folks, Does anyone offer a replacement lower steering column bearing for 1968-69 cars with automatic on the column shift ? All I am seeing form Classic Industries and others indicate the only one available is for a manual trans or auto floor shift car. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance, Rob

Ok, so I am into a 1969 Coronet front suspension rebuild. K frame painted and installed back in the car. LCA's rebuilt and ready for installation to K member. Upper control arms are just hanging-no upper arm bump stops installed yet, no shocks. I plan to install the LCA's, strut rods, and then...

Can someone please inform me of the correct paint color/finish of a 1969 power steering box? I'm pretty certain it is NOT bright blue like the one I just removed lol. Thanks, Rob

Ok, I am in need of some help here. I am working on a '69 Super Bee that was sent to me with no fuel lines. Question is, what determines if the car gets a vapor return line? Engine size, A/C, California emissions??? Thanks, Rob

Thank you all for the info!! Very helpful. Rob

Agreed on the gasket 493 Mike...I was just test fitting

Ok guys and girls. Here I have a factory 68-69 4bbl intake (casting # 2806301). Here is my issue, while dry fitting a Carter AVS to this intake, I noticed that there doesn't seem to be enough clearance for the factory choke stove. The (choke side) of the Carter appears to sit and cover the...

I would grab it. There are only so many left out there. The trans is worth that as a core. Even if the engine is junk you can still probably salvage the intake, oil pan, some brackets etc.

Hi, is the bottom catch a piece of stamped wire or is it a catch like davek posted? Check spring tension if its the catch. Also davek is correct, you can adjust it or shim if necessary.

Ok, so who has any experience with disc brake conversion kits currently on the market? I see a bunch available, but are any of them good fit/quality? The Right Stuff has a kit, but it says it will only fit 15" wheels. Am I better off finding a different kit and keeping stock 14's ? There are...
