So, I have a 3 speed wiper car. 3 speed switch. When I got it...it had a 2 speed motor in it. I recently changed it to a 3 speed motor...but now, the wipers will turn on at random, and never turn off until I shut off the key. I've got them unplugged at the bulkhead now, since that plug only runs...

Well, I had the Charger on a lift yesterday to check out my fuel sender and while it was up, I checked out my steering to see what was leaking there - I typically have to top off the steering every second or third tank of fuel. Looking at it, there's a small leak at the pump (around the pulley...

So. My fuel gauge used to work, now it pegs full. I'm guessing a short somewhere, grounding the line and sending full voltage to the gauge. All other gauges work fine. Where is it on the tank, do I have to drop the tank to get to it? Gonna take it to work tomorrow and toss it on a lift after...

My 500 has the factory "racing" or "sport" mirrors on it. Chrome, right and left. My question is, since the passenger side shows me a whole lot of the car's rear "hip" and not much else...does anyone make a wider-angle lens for that mirror, as opposed to the pinhole-view, flat lens? I keep...

I just finished a front end rebuild on my Charger. New bushings all around, greaseable lower control arm pivots, adjustable strut bars, upgraded 1.03" torsion bars. Survivor car, factory 318, 904, 14" wheels, 4 drums, factory air car. Curious what a good ride height would be for the front end? I...

So, my Charger has SHOT front suspension bushings. Like, if I go backwards about 50' the camber is correct, but as soon as I drive forward 50' the bottoms of the wheels are nearly 1" inboard of the tops of the wheels. They're bad. My debate, as this is a 100% original survivor, is this: do I...

I know...but this car is an unrestored survivor and is NOT a "race car". 70 Charger 500, factory a/c, # match 318/2, bone stock. A904, bone stock. 2.74(?) rear gears in the open 8.25 rear. It's a cruiser. Original sheetmetal with near-original paint (one repaint, I think late 70s, presumably...

So, my 500 is (of course) buckets and console interior, with a floor shift auto. I was looking under the hood the other day trying to find casting numbers on the exhaust manifolds (any tips?), and noticed the steering column has a linkage on it, going to the transmission. Is this for a column...

So, the '70 next to me at Carlisle was another factory a/c car (like mine), and it had airtemp stickers on the quarter windows. My car is an unrestored survivor...but no stickers. Should they be there? I can't imagine they took them off...maybe the quarter windows were replaced for some reason...

I finally scored one at Carlisle for my 500! Cost me a whopping $20, can't complain. Currently I've de-rusted it and painted it rust converter black. Were these body color from the factory? Its not a concours restoration but if they're body color I'll pick up a can of a light green something...

...'68, carport, looks to be dark turquoise, Magnum 500 wheels...and that's about all I can see from the road. *** end is sticking out, but it gets into shadow before I can tell if it has a vinyl top or not. I buzz by in my '70 every now and then, and if I ever see the owner outside, I'm...

OK, so yes - I am aware that "if you're worried about fuel economy, you need a new hobby". This isn't a "damn, my Charger sucks at fuel mileage!" thread - it's more a question for the group about state-of-tune. I track the mileage (MPG) in all my vehicles as a matter of course. Not because I...

I know...this is like asking "what's your favorite oil" or "what tires do you like"...but I figure I'll ask anyway. My 500 has the numbers-match 318 2bbl, and as far as I can tell...it's never been opened up. All stock. Drives and idles like a plain ol' factory cam. Factory manifolds. At...

So, as I get my '70 500 cleaned up more and more...smaller defects are looking bigger. It happens. For instance - now that the paint has more shine to it than, say, a pool table (which is about how shiny it was when I got it!)...I'm seeing a lot more dents and dings. But I'm good with that. 50...

...because THREE people pulled out in front of me today. Today isn't the first day, either. I think people just aren't seeing the car. I'm considering adding some driving lights to the front end, as daytime running lights. First thought I had was like the old Shelby Mustangs - centered...

I've had one on order for a while. Knew it was out of stock. Emailed earlier today and got a response "sometime in May"... Front floor section, under the driver seat. I really only "need" the rearmost 8" of it as my back seat footwell is where the rust is (and I already have the rear seat floor...

What the... I guess I'll be buying from somewhere else. I hope their other panels are made in the USA...

Hi, still learning my "new" Charger 500 here. Fender tag and broadcast sheet both show FF4 paint on both body and roof. No V1F green vinyl top. Fender tag also shows M31 body belt moldings, which (I think?) are the stainless trim at the bottom of the vinyl roof? Did any Chargers have M31 with a...

I've been digging into my new (to me - got it 6 days ago) 70 Charger 500 survivor. Turns out, the driver side rear footwell...didn't survive so well. Today, I pulled the seats, console, and all the carpeting. Passenger side is rock solid. Driver front is 90% solid, with a couple pinholes...
