What did you do to your Coronet this Week ....??? - 67r/t4speeder - 11-20-13
Looking forward to meeting someday, we do live in the same state.

Thanks for the clock advice, Richard. I bookmarked the e-bay listing "just in case". For now, I'll wait & see what the repair guy can do with it. It'll still be original - even for a short time. Yes, 67r/t4speeder, the bezel is original and the chrome is still holding up nicely - good advice on the speedo cable & wiper motor!. Next, I'm going to tackle working out a couple of dings in the upper & lower trunk trim pieces. Winter here is long, so I'll have lots of time to play -besides, it's nice to take the cover off every once in a while!

A little OT but, yesterday evening the bypass hose blew on my 2000 Ram 2500. So today I went ahead and replaced ALL the hoses, including heater hoses. They'd never been changed and have 145K miles on them...insurance.

Put new leaf springs in, wound up breaking a bleeping shackle.. How the bleep does one break a leaf spring shackle??
Did find that if the rear falls off the jack, the brake hose will support it's weight..

I'm glad I'm not the only one. LOL

Was the shackle a new POS made in China? I have lots of used ones if you want another.

Not bad Jeff, I'm embarrassed to admit I am still running all the original hoses and the belt in my 94 Ram with 175K. And the belt on the 4WD van with the Cummins has 300K on it, but I stopped driving it due to an oil leak.
Seems like I love the suspense...

Here's an update on my clock revival. Picked up the clock from the repair shop today, all serviced and ready to go, for a whole $28. After some teeth gnashing and a bit of skin lost (blasted speedo cable!) she's ticking away like a good thing. Of course, nothing ever turns out perfectly - now the high beam indicator light isn't working. Oh well, that's for another day - just have to drop the fuse panel to check that out. On to the next, straightening my trunk trim!
