Is any one reproducing the rubber Wiper Transmission gaskets for the 55/56 Chrysler / Desoto cars? I need some. Thanks' JB

I guess I will back off. I was thinking of a spare for my CD8. JB

Looking for this clip.Used to secure the rear belt molding under the rear glass on my '56 Desoto Firedome Sportsman. Need at least 4. is 1/2 " wide and about 1 " long overall

I need some of the small "S" shaped clips that hold the lower rear window belt molding. these are about 1/2 " wide , about 1 " over all length ,has a stud that protrudes into the trunk area under the glass and is secured with a speed nut. I believe this is a 55/56 mopar only item. I need 4, will take the set if you want to sell. Thanks John Baker cell 321 720 2935 email Jbakercd8@gmail.com

I know that made your day. Reading the story helped mine. The wood in my "31 CD8 is original and in good shape. Just thought I'd let you know.

Hi, another thought is the vented Gas cap. if it is not letting air in it will pull a vacuum and halt the flow. something to check.

I think it may be called a "choke stove" at least it is on my old mopars.

Can someone here help me with identifying the paint name/code for the dash on my 300B project. The pieces are all primered so I don't have any thing to show. From pictures it appears the same as the tan Leather upholstery. Also ,is the interior trim on the front and back windshield chromed? Thanks. JB

I say a big AMEN to Bob's advise. I was using what I had on hand. otherwise I would have done just what he said. JB

Thanks for the compliment. Koolstude and 54 Newyorker It does not have power windows. Just power steering and Brakes JB

Ps, I have 4 wheel disc brakes on it. Including a steet rod floor mounted street rod power brake booster that fits in the same place the original did. the brakes are fantastic. I fabricated a backing plate for the front, and used chevrolet calipers, etc for the front. i bought a rear disc brake kit for a Dodge pick up for the rear. { I forget where I got it}It uses a Cadillac rear parking brake system. I had rear axles made to keep the original wide bolt pattern. Keep in mind, the rear is also from the 69 road runner, JB
