    Dash cap vs. Dash cover differences for my '69 Satellite

    Is there a specific brand you went with? What had me wanting to do this is I saw another mopar that did just the dash cover and it looked 1000x nicer than my cracked dash. I couldn’t even tell that it was just a cover until I had been looking at it for 10 minutes

    Dash cap vs. Dash cover differences for my '69 Satellite

    Is there a site/brand people use for replacement pads? My concern is that the one video on YouTube I found made it seem like I need to essentially need to remove the entire front of the car, glass, and unhook the instrument cluster, radio, heat, etc… just to get the dash out.

    Dash cap vs. Dash cover differences for my '69 Satellite

    A replacement pad means I need to take out the entire dash right? From the videos I watched it looks like I need to remove the windshield to get to the dashboard and that just seems like a lot of risk for glass this old but maybe I’m overthinking.

    Dash cap vs. Dash cover differences for my '69 Satellite

    My current dash had lots of cracks in it. Until I can replace it I’m going to use a cover. When I googled it came back with two results…one for a cap and one for a cover (pictures below). Any idea what the differences are? Just what it covers...

    WTB Looking for 1/18 Diecast model car of a Green 1971 or 1972 Roadrunner or GTX

    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

    Recommendations on car shipping/transport companies

    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

    Any idea why a spigot shutoff would be on this heater core hose on my new to me 318?

    Sorry! It’s in a 69 Satellite. It did have A/C originally but it’s not currently hooked up (as you can probably see)

    Any idea why a spigot shutoff would be on this heater core hose on my new to me 318?

    I figured I’ll find out soon enough. But just wondering if anyone has seen this before….or knows why it would be used in the first place.

    Trying to figure out what this part is in my 69 Satellite 318

    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...

    First time changing oil on 318 and headers are in the way of new oil filter. Any idea of what alternative oil filter can fit it?

    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...

    First time changing oil on 318 and headers are in the way of new oil filter. Any idea of what alternative oil filter can fit it?

    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...

    Any idea what this metal bracket is behind the rear seat in my 69 Plymouth Satellite?

    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.

    Can anyone help me identify these bucket seats and center console that are in my new to me 69 Satellite

    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

    Can anyone help me identify these bucket seats and center console that are in my new to me 69 Satellite

    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...

    WTB Looking for exterior bottom chrome trim for rear window on 1969 Plymouth Satellite/Road runner

    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.

    Need a little help decoding fender tag on 69 Satellite

    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...

    Any tips or videos on removing the dashpad from 1969 satellite? Where to purchase new one?

    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...

    Does anyone remember what the reliability of the big and small block mopar engines were when they first came out?

    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...

    Can I time/tune an engine by ear? Can’t seem to see any lines on the harmonic balancer when using my timing gun on both the top or underneath the car.

    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...
