Re: Neutral switch wiring
Typically the wire from the transmission goes to the starter relay, it is the ground side, the power to the relay comes from the key. So the starter relay has two open points in the circuit that need to be closed to complete the circuit. When you put the transmission in either park or neutral it gro...

Re: YOM License Plates
In California it is $10 more on top of the normal fees with no restrictions. If you use a set of plates for a 1968 then they are forever a 1968 plate, cannot be transferred to a different year. The nice thing in California is the YOM goes through 1972 on the trucks where on the cars it is 1969. Alan

Re: Radiator hoses 383
Are you asking for hoses for a 440? and not a 383?, I'm not sure these trucks ever came with a 440 originally.
Like others have said, hoses for a 383 should be readily available.

Re: rear bumper colour
This was mine after a fresh coat of silver paint, I also painted the receiver and loops black at the same time. I also replaced the plate lights with NOS ones and swapped out the trailer plug. The license plate mounted a little high for me so I got a 6" x 12" aluminum plate and drilled holes in the ...

Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
Mine (when I can use it as it is often taken) is from my website MrMopar.com that I have had from the early days of the internet. Otherwise I try Cuda_Al (again often taken).

Re: prop valve locations?
I'll have to get a picture but I mounted mine at the rear, I didn't want to cut and re flair the lines and the front wasn't practical. All I needed was a jumper tube and a premade one was used.
