Antenna extension length – Trans Am cars

How long is the AAR-T/A antenna extension cable? It’s not for lack of trying that I can’t find this information. I went back a few years in forum searches and have done the standard internet thing, to no avail… as in, not even a hint.

Dealer emblem: Peters Dodge (Milwaukee WI)

I’m looking for the chrome dealer emblem that Peters Dodge in Milwaukee, WI placed on cars they sold during the early 1970s. It isn’t E-body or even model-specific but I need–OK, really want–one for my Challenger (which wasn’t sold there–long story…

FS: 1971 340 intake, choke & cup

This is one of the nicest 1971 340 ThermoQuad intakes I’ve ever seen. This intake has no pitting or damage to it, having been removed in the early/mid ’70s and stored indoors since. Included with it are the hard-to-find choke cup and the factory original choke thermostat (stamped 75, with a smaller 148), along with the original retaining bolts. None of these parts has any serious pitting. These parts were glass-beaded a few years ago and have been sitting on a shelf in my basement. All…

There’s more to servicing your automatic transmission than just the occasional fluid and filter change.

In the case of the front (kickdown) band, you don’t even have to get (very) dirty or drop the pan. It’s external! More than likely, the front band is the one that will be…

Imperial rocker moulding(s)

This past May I had an unfortunate fire that tried to consume my ’82. Before I got it put out, it managed to severely warp the RH rocker moulding (as well as melt some undercar wiring). The parts car I had donated the needed electrical bits, but both mouldings were worse than the fire-damaged one. I need a RH moulding, but I will buy a pair if necessary. If it’s a pair from a Mirada or Cordoba, that’s fine; I’ll replace both sides. I’m not doing a factory restoration, I just want them…

Gauge face restoration?

I’m looking to get my Rallye dash gauges restored, and am wondering what vendors board members have used with good results. I don’t need any…
