Did 73 B-bodies have rubber bumpers on both the fuel filler door AND the lower rear valance under the fuel filler door? I ordered what was caller "license plate bumpers" and these clearly fit the 1/4" holes in the middle of the plate door (not the holes in the corners for the plastic push in...

On the '71-74 B-bodies are the windshield wipers supposed to stay above or ride on top of the large stainless trim at the bottom of the windshield at the bottom of their stroke? If you clock them so they stay above the trim piece they angle up pretty far onto the windshield when they are off...

What years, if any, were reflective stripes used on Road Runners?

Has anyone run across some generic rubber floor mats that are readily available at a reasonable price that fit the floors of '73-74 B-bodies? Classic Industries has a few sets to choose from but they are all over $120/set and say something like "Road Runner" or "Plymouth" on them which I'm sure...

These are holes I found on the ledge that the front of the seat cushion sits on on my '73 RR project: . I can't find anything in my collection of parts from the car that looks like it could go there, both over and under the floor. I need to figure out what to do with these holes because I...

I'm having trouble figuring out what parts I'm missing for the wiper linkage on my '73 RR project. How do the linkage rods connect to the pivots and what hardware is needed to put it together? Is anyone selling these parts new or do you have to get them off of a salvage car? I have the pivot...

Did all factory B-body AM/FM stereos from this era use external stereo faders, or did some have the fader built into the radio itself? I'm guessing if you hook one of the stereos that need a fader up without a fader it will still make sound, right?

I carefully pried the drip rail moldings off of my '73 RR project a long time ago to paint it so I could make sure to get paint underneath where they overlap the sail panels, and in so doing they developed an upward bow to them that makes them impossible for me to snap back on. I sent them to a...

What sort of screws and so forth were used to attach the side mirror mounting plates to the outer door panels on the 1973 Road Runners? Thanks.

I made a post the other week about the stereo wiring layout for the 71-74 B-bodies and someone posted this shop manual page: . On the "stereo wiring" diagram are the "X54A-20BK" wire and the wire coming out of the molex connector connected to the "X53-20BK" wire loop going to both be body...

How was the original 5X7" rear deck speaker mounted in '71-74 b-bodies? The holes for it look pretty small so I can't tell if they were screwed in from below with #8 sheet metal screws or attached with tiny (about #6) machine screws and nuts, or some other way that is less obvious. I want to...

So stereo on 1973 b-bodies was apparently one front dash speaker and one speaker on the rear package shelf. There are two factory oval cut outs on my car's package shelf, but the right one is the only one that is recessed and has holes punched for a 6X9 speaker, so would that have been the...

On which side is the horn located on '73 Road Runners? It looks like there are holes for it to be mounted on both sides of the fronts of the inner fenders, and there are electrical leads for it on both sides as well. I suspect that is because the Satellites got dual standard honk horns. Sorry...

What is the correct shape for the grommets that were used to run wires directly thru the firewall in 1973 (might be the same '71-74), such as the clutch switch wire and ammeter wires if using a heavy duty alternator (which were run separately from a branch of the main alternator wire since the...

On my '73 there is a small oval hole about 3/8" X 3/4" right below the bulkhead connector and I can't figure out what it's there for. It's not big enough to put a grommet in and run extra wires or a cable thru. Anybody know what it's for? I can't see anything about the way my car is set up to...

I'm trying to get at the ignition switch of my '73 RR so I can replace it but I cannot for the life of me get the part of the steering column it's in off. Is this housing - which has the upper steering shaft bearing in it - supposed to slide off of the steering shaft when the three #10 machine...

I need to do some electrical work behind the dash of my '73 RR and for some reason the radio won't come loose from the instrument cluster panel. I obviously took the shaft nuts off and the nut on the stud in the back that holds it up but it appears to be stuck to the instrument cluster on the...

I'm finding the big block radiator that I'm upgrading to (because I swapped engines) to be a bit wider than the small bock one that my car used to have and so I'm pretty sure big block cars got radiator supports with the radiator mounting flanges in different locations (wider apart). I need to...

I had a request for a picture of this EGR valve that I bought NOS on eBay. As far as I know it fits 1973-74 400 and 440 "high performance" (with 4 bbl carb) engines. It fit my engine perfectly. The mounting studs on the intake manifold are 2" apart (c-to-c) and in a plane perpendicular to the...

Can someone please supply me with the dimensions and shape of the original 71-74 B-body gas tank pad so I can make my own out of tar paper (I already have), which I understand the originals were made out of? The pictures I've seen of this show a rectangle with the material cut into a fringe with...
