Finally got round to the interior of my 1984 Fifth Avenue. It needs a headliner, all I have is the two longitudinal bars that run down the each side of the roof and the front bar by the windshield. That's it, nothing else at all. :( I have taken the car to a few upholstery shops, a couple are...

Hello again guys. The brake lights on my 1984 Fifth Avenue don't work, I checked the bulbs, all good, so I turned to the switch. The plunger seems to be sticking, I got it moving but not enough to make contact, no surprise there. How do I remove the switch?, can it be overhauled?. I cant go to...

Where can I buy a windshield molding for my 1984 Fifth Avenue?. I've tried all the usual places online and got nowhere. Thanks in advance. Roger.

Mechanically my 5th Avenue should be fine now, after a reground crank, new oil pump, timing chain & sprockets, and a rebuilt transmission. The brakes work fine, recored radiator, some new steering parts and a busy day with a grease gun. So today I took it for a drive, the speedometer doesn't...

The first major UK american car show of the year, here are a few of the cars, tell me what you think of them. 1957 Lincoln. 1959 DeSoto. From the front. I told the very nice couple with the car I would post some pictures here. Look like a cross between a Cadillac and a Mercury to me, what is...

This may seem a daft question, but I can't find anywhere on this forum that tells me what oil I need for my car. It's a 1984 Fifth Avenue with a 318 btw. Also what are the correct tire pressures please?. Sometimes the simplest of problems can be the hardest to answer!. :) Roger.

I have a 1984 5th Avenue, as far as I know in original stock trim. I've always thought that Mopar rwd cars from the early 1960's thru late 1980's had either a 904 transmission behind slant sixes and LA blocks and a 727 behind big block engines. It seems there are several variants of the smaller...

I have picked up a 360 from a late '70s Dodge, a Mirada I'e been told. I would like to put it in my 1984 Fifth Avenue. Up date, apparently its from a truck. It's complete (2 bbl) carb to pan, including exhaust manifolds, distributor, and harmonic balancer, but no flex plate. I understand the...

I hauled my 1984 Fifth Avenue home a couple of days ago, a non runner with good paint. To get it off the trailer some basic faultfinding found a bad coil. Remarkably, a local auto parts store had a suitable replacement - I'm in the UK - so I was able to get it unloaded and parked in my...
