Take the plating work south of the border to a chrome shop down ther for a good price. Just an idea. No enviormental worries there.

My 65 valiant was cold blooded,would stall in the middle of intersections during morning rush traffic on cold ,foggy mornings as if on purpose. I moved the timing a little.just a hair and it improved a lot.Hope it helps.

64 dodge slant six runs great,but when you put it into drive the truck acts as if something is holding it back. I go back and forth from drive to reverse till I hear a clunk noise that it's broken free. I drive the truck a couple of days,park it and a few days later when I get in it to drive it agai...

the needle should be and stay in the middle of a good idling engine. it moves if you accelerate,of course.

have only seen the Perkins diesel on the 60's larger trucks. Saw a 1964 Dodge 3 ton truck with a factory installed perkins.

Somebody suggested changing the front wheel hubs and changing the rear axle for a modern one. That would probably wouldn't be cheap and also time consuming, maybe a headache and then some.

I have a 1947 dodge 1.5 ton truck with 20 inch, five lug,two piece lock ring wheels I , like everybody else. Trying to go with more modern tubless type wheels and tires. The wheels are really narrow,about 6 " wide. Good luck finding replacements right? Stockton wheel company will make wheels that wo...

Stockton wheel company in Stockton,Calif. can custom make tubeless type wheels to replace the widow makers for you.

Look in plastic mart in the internet,they have 12 gallon plastic tanks cheap. Bought one for my 47 dodge 1.5 ton truck back in 2004. Good luck!

Drove the 64 dodge two ton to the cat weight scale station to get a weight certifiacte for d.m.v. and on my way back there was a stupid signal light that seemed to last 4 ever. FINALLY it turned green I drove off and the truck started running like crap ,had been running fine. Barely made it into the...

Use a test light to see if there is any power going to it or on the wire that is not connected to the alt. If not,I would cut the wires ad if anything does go wrong you can always re connect them. Good luck.

I removed a fusible link wire from a 70s chevy at the junkyard and installed it in my 64 dodge. The chevy was totally striped and the fusible link was just there eazy to yank off. It offers more protection for pre 1965 trucks against vehicle fire cause of elecrtrical short.

The brake vacum power booster on my 1.5 ton 64 dodge not working any idea where i can pick up a new one. it is under the truck not behind the master cylinder.
Thanks!!

Hey,it could be that your distributor cap may have a hairline crack in it made by the rotor. My two cents worth.

The glass will interchange. I have a 64 dodge 1/2 ton with fenders from a 66 dodge 2 ton,hood from a 70 dodge front bumper from a 75 dodge,doors from a 67 dodge,wheels from a 1999 ford crown victoria and bed from a 1960 ford pick up. A lot of stuff is interchangeable.

If you want to upgrade your truck to 16 inch wheels and tires, the wheels from a 1999-2003 lincoln towncar-mercury grand marquis or ford crown victoria are a direct bolt on. 16 inch tires are much easier to find than 15 in. these days. You can find these in black steel or alloy.
