    4 speed conversion

    Shift rods and shifter mechanism, handle. May need the different adapter plate for the shifter mechanism Pistol grip 4 speed I assume? I'm not sure about the front bearing retainer size between the two transmissions. That may determine the bell housing you use if they are not the same size...

    Not amusing anymore.

    @ Xcudame. I apologize for not knowing what car you are switching from drum brakes to disc brakes. I assume a Cuda. Is it a restoration or are you building it how you want it? I converted a Challenger to front disc brakes from drums over 20 years ago before there were conversion kits - just...

    Removing a non-AC Heater Box

    Get a good heater box rebuild gasket/seal kit. I personally have used Detroit Muscle Technologies (DMT) heater box kit and have had everything work great. Terry W.

    Removing a non-AC Heater Box

    If the carpet is in great shape, I would remove both seats, console, seatbelts, the sill plates and kick panels, then remove the carpet and clean it outside of the car and let it dry in the sun. That's the best way to do it and not have mold/ mildew. Just my opinion. Terry W.

    WTB Top of trim clips

    Stainless can be welded. Aluminum is more difficult when thin. If stainless, get it welded for now if you can't find one. Terry W.

    WTB Top of trim clips

    I saw the rust stain and assumed they are a steel clip.

    WTB Top of trim clips

    For a quick repair, someone good at TIG welding could repair to make it usable while you try to find one for sale. T walker

    TF727 suddently started slipping

    Glad you found the problem. I had a friend years ago who rebuilt automatics for his job. We got together for a couple of evenings and rebuilt mine years ago. I think the friend, who I last saw several years ago, he had dementia then, has since passed away. I learned alot from him about...

    TF727 suddently started slipping

    I'm going to ask a silly question here. Did you or someone else service the transmission? The reason I ask this is this. Was the correct transmission fluid put in the transmission? Terry W.

    Door removal?

    I am going to assume that e-body door hinge replacement is the same between Cudas and Challengers. I have been able to replace my lower hinge on my Challenger doors without removing the door and the fender. I open the door so I can get my hand and wrench into the lower hinge area. I place a...

    CLUTCH FORK TROUBLES

    Those pads on the clutch fork sit on the ears on the bearing. If I remember correctly, the curved spring clips ends just go over the clutch fork ears on the back and the assembly pivots easily. If the other pad on fork that isn't visible in photos is like the one we can see, it's okay then. I...

    CLUTCH FORK TROUBLES

    To me, it looks like the fork is on the throw out bearing correctly. I've usually have the clutch fork on the pivot and the bearing installed prior to sliding in the transmission. If I understand you correctly, the fork is not on the pivot in the photos. Unfortunately, if there's not enough...

    Looking for a guy or business that can button up all the glass on a 71 gran coupe

    I feel like you do at times with the burn out on working on my cars. The windows just take patience with the adjusting. A few years ago, the driver's door window broke on my Challenger. My insurance said I had to have the replacement glass installed by a glass shop for them to cover the costs. I...
