’69 300 convertible cat whiskers

Looking for my vert. Just need two…driver and passenger doors, the exterior ones. Can be new or used. Currently have nothing lol. Always thought there should be something there, and when reassembling my chrome, and door panels, realized I might be right…that I’m missing something. I see slots in the upper part of the doors, where it look like something goes. Research shows the cat whiskers I believe.

Please let me know what you have. Thanks!

Disc spindles for my ’69 300

Going to do another project…drum to disc conversion on my ’69 300. Currently reading the massive thread on the subject. Looks like 73 spindles may be the way to go? PM me if someone has spindles. Looks like that will be the hardest part to track down. May go for earlier style if I can source rotors at a decent price for the pre-73 spindles. Let me know. Thanks!

Bleeder size

For my ’69 300 with front drums. Want to replace the bleeder nipples, but need to know the size. Going to put in some ‘speed bleeders’. Going to change out my rubber brake lines for some new ones. Old ones are cracked, making me nervous.

Speed bleeders make life so much easier when bleeding the brakes. Have them on my motorcycles, truck, and old ‘Vett. I used to bleed the brakes for fun on the ‘Vett…it’s that easy lol.

So if anyone knows the size, please advise. Thanks!!

Proper jacking of a convertible

I’m currently looking for a OEM bumper jack for my ‘vert…just for show, not to use.

Anyways, I know on my old C5 convertible, it’s recommended to open both doors, and jack both sides up evenly. To prevent any twisting. Is this true on Chrysler convertibles? Thanks!

How to separate mirror pieces??

This is passenger side mirror. Need to disassemble for chromers. How do I get these 2 pieces separated? I can’t unscrew that ball. Is it pressed in during assembly? Thanks.

1969 300 RH mirror

Looking for a RH mirror for the 300. Found a nice drivers side on ebay, cheaper than my chrome guy can do. Now need a passenger side. Let me know. Thanks!

’69 300 4dr HT worth

I stumbled across a 1969 300 HT, green int/ext, (see only pic)…very close to me. Met with the owner today, super nice guy, had some good conversation. He bought the car for the drive train to put into a ’68 Charger. Runs/drives, couple small tears in front seats, back seat in great shape. Found build sheet under back seat, did not remove it. Front drums, AC, power windows, pwr steering, pwr brakes. Roof is shot, rust issues/holes. Body panels free of rust, and very straight, chrome and SS…
