I am looking for a source for these trim clips on my 67 Fury they go on the trim on the bottom of the windshield and connect the trim to the cowl. I have checked eBay and the web and have found similar but they are not wide e…

Seat belt mounting 67 Fury Vert.

I am trying to mount my new seatbelts in my 67 Sport Fury convertible. I looked for a Tapped anchor plate in the sill beside the bucket seat (removed the carpet from under the sill plate and did not locate one. The coverage in the service manual is terrible, it states to look at the drawing. It looks on the drawing that it might be mounted to the bucket seat frame but that doesn’t make sense . The drawing isn’t clear at all for the Bucket seats. I located the ones for the rear seat.

Tire Pressures

What tire pressures should be run with newer radial tires. I am running 32lbs but when I read the post about tire pressure labels I saw that it was only supposed to run 24lbs if under 5 passengers. I am concerned that that could ruin a modern radial ti…

They are having me remove all of the trim around the windshield. Or…

How do I remove the buttons off of the wheel so I can clean the electrical contacts beneath the buttons? am currently trying to get electrical contact cleaner to…

Stock 383 2 bbl idle sound.

Quick question, Does the stock 270 Hp 383 in 1967 have a slight lope to it. I did notice in the service manual that it looks like it has about a 214 intake and 224 exhaust at .050 lift. That is if I did my math correctly. Anyway I just got this car ru…

installing new motor mount on 383

I am installing a new left side motor mount on my Fury, after I installed it onto the engine it will not drop back into the frame. The mount is straddling the bracket but the pin will not slide into the hole. t is about an eighth of an inch off to the rear of the hole. The front side of the pin is even with the hole. I don’t have enough room to swing my
mini sledge where is a good place to try to pry the engine forward. I did see a video on you tube where they just started it and let it…
