I have a 1949 Dodge Coronet Club Coupe . The interior is decent, except for the floor carpet.

Where is a good place to buy replacement carpet?



Thanks]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/109758/1973-dodge-dart-sport Sun, 23 Aug 2009 23:42:54 +0000 tyler1028 109758@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/109551/clutch-adjustment Wed, 19 Aug 2009 22:11:30 +0000 lancair90 109551@/forum/discussions
I'm new to the board and have a 1949 Dodge Coronet Club Coupe.

It has Fluid Drive and I think needs the clutch adjusted. It doesn't have any free play and the owners manual says it should have an inch .

I think I got it.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/107609/69-new-yorker-value Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:58:36 +0000 69_New_Yorker 107609@/forum/discussions


I have a 1969 Chrysler New Yorker 4-door hard top, V8 440. Straight body, little rust, runs perfectly - I've pretty much done everything mechanically except for the transmission and engine. Have the original owners manual, odometer reads 89k. Stock AM radio, 4 cigarette lighters, auto windows.



Minuses: Upholstry on most seats needs to be repaired, headliner needs repair, some holes/tears/cracking in vinyl top (I'd say its 85% nice though). Clock doesn't work, interior roof light doesn't work. Trunk leaks in the winter.



I have searched a lot and have never seen a 69 New Yorker like mine for sale. Thinking it's pretty rare. Any ideas?



Thanks for your time!]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/107267/1938-dodge-d5 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 16:49:18 +0000 AtYourBidding 107267@/forum/discussions


One of my elderly customers has in his possession a 1938 Dodge. I'm under the impression it is the D5, and I have literature stating that is has the 217 CC Flathead 6 motor, as well as confirming that when I looked at it.



I am trying to help this 85 year old man with Lieukemia finance a portion of his golden years by selling his classic cars for him, so I've come to you for help in ascertaining the value I should be requesting for this vehicle.



62,000 original miles

Original Atlas heater

crank-out windshield



It definitely needs restoration and has been sitting in the woods since about 1990 I believe. However, in 1990 it received the following attention:



- New mains and rod bearings,

- New oil pump

- New fuel pump

- Rebuilt Carb

- New Coil

- New Wires, cap, rotor

- New undercoating, new rubber all around n

- New brakes with rebuilt master cylinder, new hardware, seals, drums, hoses



That being said, it was last driven September 1989.



Based on my knowledge of cars, I ascertained the following:



All rockers good, panels solid little eat through rust, all doors & hinges are good and open smoothly for not being opened in 20 years. Interior in surprisingly good shape, appears that the water did not invade the interior to a tremendous extend. All quarters appear solid...



So, any help you can give me would be much appreciated I'll let the photos do the rest:



























Thank you ahead of time.

First of all what exactly was the Highlander package?

Where can I order a 1950 Chrysler Sales Broshure?

Where can I get a shop manual?

I have many more questions, but this will get me started for now.

Thanks sooooooooo much!!

I recently purchased a 1942 4 door, suicide doors, plymouth.



It had the frame for the front seat, but no back seat or frame.



Does anyone know where I can find one?

I would also like to know who makes adapters for these engines that mate with Torqueflite transmissions.



Also, what is "out there" for the early Hemi (1952 Chrysler 331) by way of transmission adapters for either TH350 or Torqueflite?



Any new "solutions" for the long-snout problem on the early 331?]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/104346/68-cornet-paint-scheme Tue, 09 Jun 2009 20:39:45 +0000 68 cornet 104346@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/103446/ok-i-am-stupid-1-cyl-on-inline-8 Sat, 30 May 2009 00:27:09 +0000 nfcwest1 103446@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/103005/1949-new-yorker-points-needed Sat, 23 May 2009 22:02:52 +0000 nfcwest1 103005@/forum/discussions

Above, clockwise, from top left:



Art deco headlight bezel with glass parking light lenses

Beautifully preserved, original "Crystal Ball" lucite antenna top

Unmarked rubber floormat and pedal pads, irrefutably confirming the car's low mileage

Rear vent windows open wide

Dodge Brothers tags on firewall

Masterful Cloisonne (enamelled) rear emblem

Art deco door handles and stainless side trim





Engine compartment is clean and original as well. Dodge's 217 cu.in, 6-cylinder engine was good for 87 lively horsepower. It starts instantly and runs like the proverbial Swiss watch. Items recently replaced or serviced include the battery, water pump, ignition wires, spark plugs, fuel tank, carburetor, brakes, and shocks. Original honeycomb radiator core looks gorgeous!

And, yes, the horn works, just like everything else on this time machine.







Amazingly intricate, heart-shaped grille presents itself in outstanding condition, with brilliantly sparkling chrome. Bumpers and overriders are beautiful and functional, too. Car's brightwork appears excellently preserved throughout. Note the wonderfully maintained running boards, which were optional on the 1940 models

So, what's it like driving a 63-year old Dodge?







Very impressive, thank you very much. Turn on the ignition--with the original "CDPD" key--and press the foot knob for the starter. The engine comes to life instantly, idling almost inaudibly. Pull the gear lever down into first, release the clutch, and you'll pull away smoothly. Everything is smooth about the Dodge. Suspension and brakes transmit a safe and sound feeling. Acceleration is brisk, at least by 1940 standards. All the gauges work. Oil pressure is great and the car runs cool. In a nutshell, it's a delightful cruiser!

Even the PHILCO radio still hums when turned on; it seems the speaker cone needs replacing.







All this car needs is one appreciative caretaker. It's a very rare find and definitely a "keeper" for the right Dodge enthusiast.





Best of all, it's a true rust free, low-mileage Dodge that could even be used every day, if you so desire. There are not too many 63-year old, original cars in this Country that could make this claim!



Addendum:

We sold the Barn Dodge in 2003.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/100255/37-dodge-headlight-buckets Fri, 17 Apr 2009 17:03:20 +0000 jstockwell00 100255@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/95741/56-new-yorker-or-town-and-country Thu, 12 Feb 2009 23:07:33 +0000 boatmonkey 95741@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/100571/new-to-old-cars-plymouth-cranbrook Tue, 21 Apr 2009 23:16:07 +0000 natedogg1981 100571@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/99418/gyromatic-transmittion-on-50-dodge-coronet- Fri, 03 Apr 2009 19:47:14 +0000 bobsyourman 99418@/forum/discussions
