ANyone know where I can get this paert? WHen I was working on my Ignition Switch my 4 yr old son, a great helper, but a jokester, hid the Chrome Nut which fastens the Ignition Switch into the Dash.....now he can't remember where he put it. Anyway, I've been amazed at how hard it is to find a nut, an...

Also, more Background:
...3) I have bypassed the Ammeter, so that the only Elec Pwr going to the Cluster is from the Dash Lights, plus turn signal lts,brake lt. & fuel gauge

I can't figure this one out - driving me nutz: 1968 D100 Problem: When Key us Turned to Start Ignition (in 'Start' & 'Run'), the Dash Lights come on & Stay On. Background: 1) Chk'd Wires from Gauge Cluster: a) The 'Black' ones for the Dash Lights: These are wired correctly - They go to the proper Fu...

...for a 1968 D100, et al.? Need to verify the colors to connectors on the back of the switch. I'm just missing something w/ this mess & can't seem to find a simple diagram/ photo or answer via 'search'.
Thanks

1968 D100 318/4bbl Later style Alternator w/ Electronic VoltReg. Also, it has the 'Orange' Electronic Ignition setup. Have done some of the 'MAD' Electrical upgrade. Anyway, for my next task, I want to check to see that I've got the properly rated Fuses in each Fuse Box slot. I know I've seen this s...

Thanks. The 1969 PPG Color page that I found (via this website & TCPGlobal http://www.autocolorlibrary.com/aclchip.aspx?image=1969-Dodgetruck-pg01.jpg ) doesn't show 'Turf Green', but I think you guys are right about the color....think that PPG must've changed the name by 1969. FWIW, the top pic (my...

THis is the color I want to paint it:



Thanks for your help.

1969 D100.


I think that this is either 'Light Green Poly' or 'Medium Green'.

Whaddya think?

Well, then that solved one issue...but it's really strange that is normal.

The Switch goes into the brass block (which, in my terminology, is the metering block...maybe somebody has a different name for it). ANyway, the stock setup had more than just a switch. It's definitely not a prop valve. ANyway, send me a link to the threads that you say cover all that - I'm always w...

Beware of Scarebird's Quality Control. I found 4 issues to consider: 1) I ordered their new hubs which were machined to two different sizes. The wheel bearings fit fine, but the amount of metal on each side was different. I haven't detected any issue with this yet, but somehow I gotta think that eac...

Hiya, Not that this all applies to what you're doing, but there might be something helpful in here: I upgraded my entire Electrical Charging & Ignition system for 2 '67 & '68 Barracudas plus my '69 D100. I did not need to replace the coil. For what I did, these are some pretty helpful links below: a...

BTW, I used the Nippondenso I think, because ity was much cheaper than the other alternatives. Plus, I think the Nippondenso solved a belt/pulley compatablitiy issue. It's been a few years, so I'm a bit rusty on the memory.

on my 69 D100, I've got the same dash light issue. Thankfully the parking lts don't come on....however: The front parking lts Turn OFF when the headlights are on. Previous owners seem to be our problem. Anyway, I just got done tracing several issues such as the ignition not working unless the turn s...

Mine got goofed up - previous owner said someone tried to jimmy it open. As such, the knob gets hung up in the handle opening.
Does anyone know where to find a new or good used one of these?

Thanks again, Fellas.

Hey Damon23, I'm located in Smyrna. Not many Georgians on this site, but the people here are very helpful. Here's my beast - currently getting prepped for paint. Gonna keep the same color. Like you, though, I'm considering that 'White Cap' as well. Shoot me a PM if you wanna shoot the bull sometime....

Ooopssss....I meant to say: "wear on the OUTSIDE of the front tires." I obviously didn't have enough cafiene when that was written this morning.

Hi, On my 1969 D100, I've finished up my Scarebird Disc Brake Swap (BTW - Buyer Beware), & Rebuilt most of the Front End. The Truck Steers nice & Tight. It also stops straight (but req'd me to go beyond the Scarebird info). The only problem I have is that I've got Camber that slightly bends the tire...
