Research SUPER CAPACITOR jump starter. No battery to go dead or catch fire.

This is what I used on my 87 Fifth Ave. $75 for the distributor, wires and pig tail. The cap can be clocked every 90%, takes about an hour. Plenty of room. $75 for the carb. For a 70 Mopar. Both work like new money, from eBay and Amazon. And the return filter for vapor lock.

We got a bumper crop of late 90s 318/360 here in Arkansas. The best ones are in the old church vans. They only get driven on Sundays by the little old ladies that run the Sunday school routes.

Do you have a good understanding on adjusting the booster to master push rod?

Same her. I just accept it. When the gas hits the carb, off we go.

I'm keeping my 3900-pound 93 318 Magnum 3.91 rear auto trans Dakota because it reminds so much of how the 69 GTS 340/3.55 rear auto trans Dart I had back in 74 ran.

My understanding is that it balances the available pump line pressure against the drive shaft speed tail shaft governor pressure. And will influence the car speed shift points. Both up and down.

The best ratchet straps for the money around here are the 12-foot Husky black with red strip from Home Depot for $10 at four to the pack. I use two diagonally on each wheel for anchoring it down and one at each truss/rafter run from side to side at the top of the wall for snow load. So, at least...

What motor do you have?

No, not yet. Probably because we have three monster size owls and two large aggressive hawks residing in the tree's close to the cars on these 3 acres. Wasp can be a bit of a surprise if I let one sit too long.

That's definitely a concern. Maybe ratchet straps over the top between poles to add more roof ribs, or something. The most I've had on one was about a foot.

Congratulations on the tune. I know it's a rigmarole, but necessary. I was able to tune my 75 Dart BBD catalytic 318 auto 2.73 rear to run well with ported or constant vacuum advance. Different tune for each. Best all-around setup on this car is with "working egr" and ported advance. 3 mpg...

Maybe, but I don't think so. It doesn't puddle water and we had an hour of 60 mph straight line wind last month. No problem. The usual method of roof reinforcement is to run ratchet straps from side pipe to side pipe over the car to truss the roof. The plastic top can be drawn as tight as you...

I gave up on the covers long ago. Now I get about 4 years out of the cheapest $200 HF portable garages. I use ratchet straps to the wheels as anchors. Two crossed at each wheel.

I need the two wiper linkage bars. One long, one short. Everything else appears to be present. Apparently, the previous owner removed them to replace the grommets and they are long gone. Also, a glove box door would be nice.

I would like to get everything from the dealer, but I have a dozen cars from a 1964 New Yorker to a 1987 Fifth Avenue and the parts aren't at the dealer anymore. I drive all these cars. Success with the parts seems to be careful inspection and adjustment before install. I now see them not as...

Any defective parts I got from Rock were replaced at no shipping cost to me. The drum can get smacked out of round in shipping. I alert them to that when it happens, and they have always bubble wrapped the replacement drum box and then put it in another "large" box. And they have always...

I've been running old iron all my driving life. And now there's a fairly good condition and new to me 87 Fifth Avenue in the garage that needs a lot of love. The plan is to bring it back to a 5-year-old 50k mile condition and then drive the tires off of it. Going it alone might not be the best...
