Hello All. New here. Although I have been lurking around for the past couple months. Figured it was about time I joined and introduced myself.
I have had my 64' Fury for about 4 months. It's a 4 door, Inline 6-225 engine. The car came down from Ohio to New Orleans on an open carrier through that terrible snowstorm in the northeast this past year. (Damn that carrier broker!) It was COVERED in snow and salt. After it was backed off the trailer I took it to a car wash and pressure washed the hell out of it. A few weeks later I put it up on some jacks and took a wire brush and some ACF 50 and tried cleaning as much of it as possible. The car, based on the photos was rust free when it was in Ohio, hard to TRULY tell tough. So far so good. Only surface rust underneath no pitting. Any tips on that subject would be appreciated.
Since then I have taken out the trash modern radio the last owner put in the glove box, and hooked up the Original AM/FM MOPAR that was still in the dash. It's a 3 on the tree and the first day I had it I jammed the linkage, but me and the car have worked it out since. ;)
I have put in a new rear package tray, new front dashpad, front end armrests, changed the oil, installed a new oil pressure sending unit (Old one was leaking), fuel filter, air filter, and spark plugs.
I am 38 and this is my first MOPAR. I am doing all the work myself and love it. In the past I have owned classic motorcycles, but I am in love with working on this MOPAR and restoring it.
I do have an electrical question. When I engage the right turn signal, both front signals blink. Left turn signal works as intended front and back. Rear signals are good both ways. Any ideas? I bought the service manual with the electrical wiring diagrams. When I have time I will dig in.
Thanks and looking forward to joining the community.
