Hi, I am sort of a new member. I was a member a few years ago and with moving and new email addresses, I was unable to log in with old account. I have a 1950 FN1 1/2 ton Fargo pickup restored to original. Except for radial tires and a Pertronix ignition. As for rare parts. I have a rear window defroster that came with my truck. It attaches with suction cups to the rear window.

you can make this easily or you can go to a wrecking yard and find other door hood trunk panels with similar curve and size and cut out and transfer to your panel then weld in...while not a Plymouth this was a most recent fix by me in this manner...same style damage, same technique.....these inner section were welded in with gas torch with zero warpage on the reverse panel that is the trunk outer surface.....treating the underlying backside of the panel is also done at this time while exposed and visible to the naked eye...this panel was a one day event.... I have done the same repairs on this car's hood and the trunk and hood of my 62 Dodge and the trunk of my 48 Plymouth bz cp....all is rather quick easy and straight forward in the process....

Hello everyone First, I would like to thank all the guys on this forum who post information and advices, this is real help for beginners like me. Here is the reason of my post: I found a Spitfire 251 engine in France and “cherry on the cake” like we say here, it is a full flow. I can’t believe it! Few weeks ago I was dreaming looking at your engines and today I have a Spitfire in my workshop. The previous owner told me that it has been rebuilt long time ago but never used. I think it’s right according to the clean cylinders and pistons but I found a rivet into the head when I removed it, so a check will be useful. The identification number starts with C48 so I guess it is a 1950 De Luxe or Windsor. I think it is the original grey color. My regret: I don’t know the history of this engine, how did it come to France? When? What’s happened to the car? I don’t know. Here are some pictures: Regards Michel

Radar: the key might be the '98 Cherokee MC. It's stroke is the same as the OE MC. I've driven mine now for five years with no problems. Best to you.

I may order a part from these people in the future, but I would never have them make a part for me! I had them make a transmission cluster gear shaft and it was horrible! The machining marks were terrible. It would have destroyed the needle bearings in short order, plus it wasn’t heat treated properly. I was suspicious after looking at it so I took it to a machine shop and asked them to check the hardness. It was just unhardened mild steel. They did refund my money, but I wasted a lot of time.

Hey Raindance, The tab you click is at top, under the color banner, under classifieds, Technical, click that, then tech tips.That's the article. You must have went to technical archives.

My give these folks a call as I have read on the forum that others have gotten parts for their old Mopars here. http://www.nwtparts.com/ DJ

Got me a different ride about a month ago Bring on those "Rocky mountains" ?

The largest in the 15 years since I moved here was 7.2. we lost 2 jars of homemade jam.

On FEF, the area was cut out and a new reinforcement plate added back in (yes that back plate is there on purpose). Then some carriage bolts were turned down and used in place of the rivets. Yes, you would have trapped rust hiding in there. I think the rivets are part of the DODGE look and really need to be put back...but that's me...

I don't know how you are reading it. I thought it was pretty clever, and funny.

very disappointed in the thread title, looking to see some real smoke pouring off the back of a set of tires during acceleration...

To insure a true full flow system a pipe plug must be installed internally in the block to direct all lil to pass through the full flow system as pictured below.
