I've had this car since 1985 and have come to the conclusion that I'm not going to to restore it. In earlier years, I'd start it occasionally and drive it up and down my street. Mostly garage-kept, recently started the engine after 20+ years, runs off gas can. The good: Complete car including both rear fender skirts and all 4 Magnum wheels Very rare, only 3,400 made 383 engine with Torqueflite transmission Original factory red paint with black vinyl interior Includes excellent used rear bumper to replace the one that's on the car now Replacement exhaust system inlcuded Has keys and clear title in my name so no paperwork hassles Still has Certi-Card in holder under hood A real eye-catcher when restored The bad: There's no denying that it's a project car...needs full restoration Rear floor on passenger's side rusted out Located in Freehold, NJ. $6,900.00.

Thanks for your ideas. There is a Fastenal store near my office so I'll stop by during lunch one day and ask some questions.

I've been trying to sell an NOS Plymouth fender for quite a while. I've been reluctant to provide shipping because I'm concerned about shipping damage on a large sheet metal part. I think my 'no-shipping' stance is costing me sales. How do you ship a fender? Does it have to be wrapped or boxed? Are there carriers that seem to be more careful than others? It's a '50-'52 rear fender, by the way. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks, Harold

Michael, Welcome to the forum and the world of old Mopars. There is a lot of good advice in this thread so far. I'd suggest joining the P15-D24 forum ( http://p15-d24.com/forum/4-p15-d24-forum/ ) which is dedicated to flathead-powered Chrysler products. There is a wealth of knowledge on that forum as well. When oiling the cylinders, you should aim the oil to the driver's side of the engine (I use a squirt can with a long flexible nozzle) because the park plug openings are offset to the passenger's side of the block and the cylinders are not directly beneath them. Your Dodge was built with a 6-volt positive ground electrical system. If it's been changed over to negative ground, an easy way to tell is by connecting a battery with the positive terminal going to ground on the engine block and the negative terminal connected to the short battery cable that goes to the starter relay. Turn on the headlights and if the ammeter goes towards 'discharge' then the electrical system is still positive ground. Best of luck with your project and keep us updated on your progress. Don't hesitate to ask questions because we're here to help each other. Harold

I found this in my toolbox and really don't need it. The wrench is about 6-1/2" long and in very nice condition. I'll take $10.00 for it postpaid in the USA. PayPal is fine. Thanks, Harold

Still got 'em. I'll listen to an offer on the whole lot.

Sorry about drifting from the OP's question, but I need to chime in...There are a couple of car donation "charities" operating near me in New Jersey and it amazes me that they don't seem to be scrutinized in any way. One of them operates their own used car lot stocked with freebie inventory. They get lots of donations because they give an artificially high value for the car so people get a larger tax write-off. Another well-known car charity near here makes all or nearly all of their donations to a particular religious school. The owner of the charity also happens to own the school!

The original engine number is stamped on the side of the chassis near the left rear wheel. You probably have to clean away rust and undercoating to see it.

PM sent.

The '87 is the only Motorcraft wire and cable catalog I have. Are you looking for anything else?
