The original fender tag on my 68 was stolen in Washington at my brothers house after the purchase but before delivery to me. I received the after market one from MMC Detroit. This forum helped me rebuild this car. Does this look right? In looking at the old posts, I only saw two fender tags in...

I've found another leak from my "original "valve covers. Tired of trying to get these to seal. Sorry for the long link, interested in these fabricated covers but not quite sure they will fit with HP exhaust manifolds. Eyeing it, it looks like they might touch. Your help is always appreciated...

I'm tired of each time I go to fire up my RR, (if I didn't run it yesterday,) it needs to crank over and over to get fuel to the carb. What are the thoughts of installing an Electric Fuel Pump? Brand? location? Or do I have another issue? Edelbrock 650.

Ready for decals. Talked to a vendor and he said it doesn't matter if I put on color or black and white for my 68. I would have thought that it was one or the other and probably color. What did they come with originally?

I have a 68' 383, Car is running OK, I don't have as much get up as I'd expect. I'm working on a new carburetor, I have an edelbrock 650 and my brother is sending me a Holly. It has been mentioned a couple of times that my distributor looks like I got it from swap meet (previous owner). As...

I'm thinking of replacing my radiator with an aluminum one w/electric fans. I was just in WA and my brother has a mid sixties El Camino with a 402, aluminum radiator with two fans that looks real good and keeps his car at an even temp. Any leads or suggestions?

I have a 68 roadrunner with the original gauge cluster. In the past, the automatic trans was switched out with a 4 speed w/overdrive from an early to mid 80's Dodge truck or HD Van transmission. I cannot find a speedometer cable with the push-on end w/quick release holder and a 7/8" screw-on for...

Is there a way from visual inspection a way to tell 440 heads from 383 heads?

I've been from time to time, and spent a lot of time trying to get my fuel gauge to work.(years) off and on. And I've asked the forum for ideas before and believe me I tried all the suggestions. There has been a lot of time put into this. At first when I hooked up a wire from the battery ground...

Still waiting on the nut-serts to arrive. I'm pre-fitting the door panels and it not quite strait forward. (Surprise) I started to size them and a lot of the holes in the door seem correct for matching, but on the top of the door there are slots instead on hole like on the rest of the door. The...

I finally, found someone who actually makes door panels. PG Classic. I got four panels for less than I was trying to pay other vendors for two. They said it would take up to five weeks, I got them in two. They look great!! My next hoop, I need the hardware to attach the rear armrests. The front...

I know this topic has been covered. I even had some questions when installing mine. I was just looking on utube and got sidetracked on "fuel vapor separators". I was a little surprised when I saw almost all of the mechanics (who sound like they know stuff) have their separators laying...

I asked this question on another link and got good advice. thanks. Here's the deal. My fuel gauge has never worked. First thing I did was get a new fuel sending unit, nothing. Had other problems and didn't work on this but from time to time. I have spent about fourteen hours (beer breaks) with...

I'm looking for front interior door panels. Prefer black but will discuss any.

Got my 68 RR wheel alignment done last week. this is a one man shop and all this shop does is alignments. I was last one for the day and he worked on it an extra hour or so. (No additional fee) He stated upon completion, "the left side caster angle is higher than maximum specified amount...

When putting the car together, I purchased a speedometer cable. On install, it didn't seem to fit perfect but hooked it up anyway. After instrument cluster and dash was complete, car starting to get on the road, the speedometer gauge doesn't move. I did test the gauge before hand and it's good...

I got a surprise yesterday after installing roll-window gasket. A friend dropped by and helped me set the rear window into place before installation. It rocks from lower passenger side to upper driver side leaving about an 1/2 inch gap. My thought was with sheet metal vise grips, bend down the...

I have a leak I can't fix. It's out of the "steering valve body" also called the "valve assembly" (both names on different pages of same manual) on the top of the power steering gear . The pressure hose goes into the top and the non-pressure line goes into the front. the book say's 7 ft pounds...

Does anyone have a picture of what the rear hole in the rear pop out window mounts to? It's been a long time since removal, the front attaches to the post but there is nothing to attach the back of the window to.

Don't know where else to ask. I found one more leak! 383RRE My passenger side valve cover was leaking. While removing it, I scratched it in a couple of spots. Went to auto store and purchased VHT high temp engine enamel the same I used when I first painted the engine. After prepping...
