Rear carpet in and how much fun finding the seat bracket holes... New ali rad plumbed inc trans cooler, all oil cleaned off...

Re: anyone doing much driving in your mopar?

Still undertaking the refresh on my Coronet Steve, but mild weather here in Cornwall means I usually drive mine all year round.

Re: Turn signal switch-WTH

If your hazards are working the turn signals it means power is getting out of the switch. Have you actually tested the bulb holders to see if they are actually earthed? They earth through the bulb holder socket itself and it’s essential that they earth. I have a problem with one of my turn signals n...

Re: Carburettor advice

Just an alternative view. I usually run Holleys and don’t mind doing basic tuning. Don’t forget that both Pete and Blue are very experienced with tuning carburettors. On my recent Barracuda I wanted a simple bolt on and go solution. I chose an Edelbrocks 500 AVs for the 273 motor, a 650 is also avai...

Re: 1967 Dodgy Coronet

I’ve been a bit lazy posting about the Dodge, but certainly not lazy working the car. Since the last post I’ve had the motor running which was a huge relief and swapping a dizzy 180 degrees has its benefits😉. I’ve now got all the pulleys erm..pulling in the right direction, a new battery fitted, som...

Re: The dreaded wiper fail

Result! Just to add to the confusion some tanks refer to a three speed wiper as off, on 1, on 2😬. Strange

Re: The dreaded wiper fail

It’s on my mind Matt, but I’ll pull it out and check it over first. If that fails...time to experiment.
I’m also considering pulling out the whole unwieldy A/C unit from under the dash and just fitting an aftermarket heater set up

Re: The dreaded wiper fail

Not mine. I tried to move the arms and they’re locked tight. Time for a remove and rebuild. Mine is a 1/2 year only build and replacements are $5/600.
Probably the spindles have seized up, strip it all out and fit new seals while you’re at it, job done.

Re: The dreaded wiper fail

I think your right Blue, that’s the next step. There power out to the motor. When I turn on the switch it clicks from time to time but no more.
