    Car show on the 6-18-22

    Russ, I'm pretty sure all the 69 hood inserts looked like this: To me, they look like they face up instead of sideways, like the 68.

    Anyone going to Carlisle? Volume II

    Bummer. I'd love to go to Carlisle. However, I'm bringing my Bird to the Syracuse Nationals this year. https://syracusenationals.com/ I'm willing to bet it will be a low turnout for Mopars at the nationals with both shows the same weekend.

    Thanks Russ. I hear ya. I put it all back together and decided to turn that into a winter project. Can't bare having it out of commission this time of year.

    Instrument cluster teardown - keep going?

    We can ignore the previous picture. I made a poor assumption that the long plastic gear was not supposed to be angled like it is. I tore the cluster down to remove the gauge and found that it seems a small plastic like piece that holds the needle spring in place is broken.

    I decided to pull the instrument cluster to look into erratic speedo problems. Despite the cable being unhooked, the gauge did not go to 0. I took an allen key and turned speedo manually. I found that the needle would go below zero and above the max. Digging further i noted the needle was...
