    71-72 power window switches for sale

    I have power windows in my car...I think a couple of them still have the clips. If I can get them out without breaking them, I can get them to you as long as I get them back. And will buy replacements depending on price. Let me know.

    Hot battery!

    Went to the races this weekend and ran 4 or 5 times, plus did a long slow parade lap and drove there and home. By the time I got back home, I could smell the acid in the battery, and it was super hot when I shut it down and felt it. Everything is new...battery, alternator, regulator and wiring...

    460 in a '71-'73. Shock tower mods?

    I am sticking with the oe manifolds for my 429. Besides the price of headers, I still want to be able to remove/replace plugs easily (well, more easy than with headers!) Right now it isn't that bad, unless you have hands like an ape.

    Having been in the automotive service industry for 30+ years, and having worked for Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., I can confirm that your alignment hasn't changed with just a steering box change.

    Edelbrock carb installed! Woohoo!

    I installed the Edelbrock 750 that I found last weekend (very clean, for $180!), and man, what a huge difference from that old 4300 (although I did have that one professionally rebuilt). Now this 429 gets up off her ass and MOVES! Flashlight Drags is on the 16th...I think I will do a LOT...

    Hi! Yea, another owner who bucked the system and went with a better color! But,sorry, like the saying goes, "There's no replacement for displacement!" In other words, bigger is better, and I will keep my 429, thank you very much!

    Grounding the 1972

    In my early years building cars (a Mopar), I couldn't figure out why the car wouldn't even crank. Then discovered the ground strap from the block to the firewall was broken. Yep, ya gotta have that!

    Titles how do they work in the US

    Having a car with a title that is in the previous owner's name is called an "open" title. And it is a felony. Ask me how I know!

    351 Cleveland exhaust manifold bolt

    My understanding has always been that the facrtory didn't install gaskets because of the (supposed) pefect mating surfaces. After that, though, you install gaskets. They are available. $11.69 here at NAPA.

    Welp just sent my 16 yr

    I feel your pain. I sent my 26 yr old daughter to JAPAN for 3 WEEKS! And they had a typhoon, and the Malaysian plane crash the day before she flew back. Talk about nervous.
