Wanted to surprise a friend with a diecast replica of a car he just bought. I don’t think I’ll find the exact one but any sassy green 71-72 Plymouth satellite/roadrunner/GTX should do the trick
So I found a car in California that I really like…of course I live in NY. I just wanted to see where I could get a few estimates on shipping costs. I’m not expecting it to be cheap but there are so many websites that I’m not even sure where to start. Any recommendations are appreciated!
Thanks
Feel like I’ve asked a few these questions lately so I apologize in advance for clogging up forums with these posts. I can’t figure out what this part is for…also looks like there should be some type of vacuum hosed hooked up to it.
It’s got 4 drum bre so I didn’t think it went to them…maybe...
Thanks for this. Turns out the 51068 was too big but the 51085 fits perfect. Still seems close to the headers but there’s space. Also learned that I could easily google oil filter cross reference and search myself for the future.
As a novice is there any risk going with a smaller oil filter...
The oil filter that came off was a carquest R85085 and is about 3 1/4” tall. No idea what engine it’s supposed to fit but I guess it was running on this 318 for awhile.
I bought a wix 51515 and is roughly 5” tall. This filter is hitting the headers and I’m unable to spin it on.
Didn’t know if...
Car is new to me so I’m slowing tearing it down. Couldn’t figure out what this was for…the backseat didn’t seem to be hooked into it.
Also any idea why this satellite as three horns? Was that standard? The two I’m used to but there is another squeezed between the front bumper and radiator.
Thanks! I somehow thought I’d be able to easily find a new console lid to replace the duct taped one but not a lot of Cordoba replacement parts out there haha
I was trying to find a new lid for the center console but having trouble figuring out what year it came out of. Just kind of interested about the seats if anyone recognizes them. Took off the back hoping for a build sheet but no luck. The seat belts attached to the seats say 70 Chrysler on them...
I see that I can buy a repo for roughly $300 but it comes with all the trim. Just wondering if anyone has just the lower piece that goes near the trunk at the bottom of the window.
I’ve tried my usual decoding sites and both came back saying that because of the plant it was made at their tool doesn’t work. Any help is appreciated! I did decode the VIN but if it helps I’ll provide that too
Hoping to see if the broadcast sheet is behind the rear seat tomorrow
VIN...
Helping my friend with a new to him 69 Satellite. The dash pad is cracked in many places and probably the worst part of the interior. I’m trying to help him remove it without removing the windshield (hopefully that’s possible?). I can’t really find any videos or instructions on the screw...
I have been looking at new cars lately and trying to compare engines which made me start thinking how this process went for mopars back in the day. For instance did the 383 have less issues than a 318? Was the 440 more reliable than the 340/360.
Same thing with transmissions? I’d imagine the...
Hey all so I’m having a heck of time trying to tune this built 360 that’s new to me. Every other vehicle I’ve timed with this timing gun had the original motor in the car and was super simple. I’d point my innova 3568 timing gun at the harmonic balancer, see the line and then adjust the...
Appreciate the help! (And all the other answers). If I just timed the engine and tuned the carb would hooking up a PCV valve require me to retune anything?
So the car is new to me and the supposedly the engine was rebuilt recently with less than a few hundred miles on it. After driving it and popping the hood I notice that there is smoke coming from both breathers on both valve covers with a little bit of oil getting into the valve covers too.
I...
So from what I read on previous posts most small blocks run well around 12-14 initial 34-36 all in. I haven’t checked the timing yet but it’s running a little rough. Idling at 1100rpm, stalling out when put in reverse and stalling at stop lights. So there might be some carb tuning that needs to...
Just wanted to update and let anyone that finds the thread know it was the pump. Lots of good tips here if it wasn’t. Can’t believe the coincidence of the pump failing but maybe it ran dry for a second and was damaged or just really at the end of its life.
