69 Coronet 500

Not to far from me. Hope to see the car in the area.

What are you driving? I’m hoping to be driving this summer...depends on when I get my 440 back. I still need to find heads and a couple other things.

Not driving.........still building. 69 superbee clone, 572 roots blown hemi. Who has your engine?

Can anyone tell me where this bracket mounts? I found it laying on the k member. I know it’s for either the speedo or starter cables.

Both my cars. The screw is using the same hole on both, but orientation is different. Not sure which way it is supposed to go, I just positioned it to get it to work the best.

Ok, I see it’s been awhile since I’ve updated...I’ve been waiting on my heater box rebuild kit to come in...it’s only taken about 5 weeks to get my order from National Moparts in Ontario...
I started with this:

And here is the end result...not too bad for my first heater box. I found that the instructions from Detroit Muscle could’ve been a bit more detailed, but otherwise it was a good kit.

Does anyone know where I can get some of these little guys:

They retain the vent cables to the vent door posts. Mine all seem to have gone AWOL at some point in the car’s life.

nice work! those are retaining clips to hold the cables on the levers. they slip on the levers after the control cables installed.

AMK has these!! I don't know under which name they sell it but I have highlighted them in the catalog. If you still need them I will look up for you.

another use is for the visor mount screws. these are used to hold the visor to the shoulder belt mount bracket. I can share an pic from one of my 69 Coronets if anyone would like to see it.

Lowes in the misc hardware drawers.

I’m goi g to head to Lowe’s today and take a look. I’m also having a hard time finding the right Phillips head screws locally. Everything is Roberts.

Lowes in the misc hardware drawers.

Went through the Lowes by my place today...every drawer, plus asked the dude...no luck.

 

[dadsbee]

Too bad.. I got them there I'm fairly sure or a fat chance it was CTC or Homedepot. Little bags of 4 or 5 in the metal cabinet drawers.

@westie47
here you go
AMK part#: B-10562

You will most likely find your correct Phillips screws there as well.

Napa or any body shop. Kim

They are called starlock washers. That should help finding them.
