In this video I make a huge visual improvement on the 69 Coronet wagon by polishing the oxidized paint. You can do this. It's easy. This isn't a Pro video. It's a regular guy doing a basic Polish on faded paint and getting great results. It's cheaper than a paint job.

I've owned this 1970 DODGE CHARGER for awhile now and it finally came home recently. It was going to be built into a PRO STREET car but the owner went with a 1970 PLYMOUTH 'CUDA instead. So my buddy ended up with the CHARGER and eventually I bought it off him for a GREAT DEAL. Getting the car home brought back some OLD MEMORIES on the FENDERS I gave my buddy for this cars many years ago. Watch ...

    I been looking for a video like this to whew what the timing light is doing and how to adjust the timing at tue same time. I get it as base timing but what about ad total advance timing? Do you do the same just with high RPM? Dial it on the gun then bring it to 0 with the distributor? That’s the part that confuses me

    • @JonnyMopar
      @JonnyMopar 6 дней назад

      @@geostorm9351 I’ve been meaning to do another video with a dist not locked out for clarity. But yes, you have it right. Make sure your vacuum advance line is disconnected when timing. Run the RPM high, usually around 2k RPM. But you will know how much when you increase the rpm and the line on the balancer stops advancing. In other words, at idle it’ll be in one spot, in crease RPM and it will move. When it stops moving it’s fully advanced. Then like you said adjust the timing light till the line is on zero on the timing chain cover. The number on the timing light is your current total timing. Adjust if necessary.

    Thank you, I’ve never used a timing light because I’ve only ever worked on modern distributor-less systems. But recently I got my late mom’s 1989 Honda Accord running again. I had to rebuild the distributor because the advance plate and bearing and all that was cooked. So now I have to set the timing but it has both mechanical and vacuum advance. Didn’t know how to actually measure that with the timing light I have but this summed it up perfectly.

    Oh man, so much good info. Currently struggling with a '73 RR. Originally a 400 w/ AC now a 440 w/o AC. Using the original '73 water pump housing (exits on the passenger side) and I think my issue is trying to use the triangular bracket/bolts. Going to try the A/C style one you showed.. Second issue is the P/S pump seems to sit slightly too forward, and cockeyed unless I push back on it, then it straightens up square. I'm sure it's my confusion of where to bolt up the BACK P/S bracket as I believe the original 400 block had an extra provision of some kind for it to bolt to the block. Front bracket seems to mount to the water pump just fine. The struggle is real!

    Hi Johhny , going through some of your older videos and enjoying them. I bought a 1967 383 big block off craigslist a couple years ago. It was red. I have a 65 Dodge that is a factory big block car. So my car is turquoise. When I looked it up and found out that the engine is turquoise, my heart sank. It’s just too much damn turquoise under my hood when you pop the hood. But my engine compartment is black because my car was factory a black car. When I learned that this is Mopar sin to have a black engine compartment. I like the orange look better of a big block under the hood of my car but it’s just not correct. These conundrums are quite fun, but they are big decisions. Thanks for the video.

      @@maximuswedgie5149 Lol. It’s definitely a dilemma Max. My 68 Coronet is turquoise which is correct and I did the same on the 68 Charger. But on my Mom’s 72 Charger I just didn’t feel like painting the engine Blue. So I painted the 70 383 Orange, correct for the block but wrong for the car. And I got some criticism. Oh well. lol.

    Hey Jonny just wanted to see how you're doing. Haven't seen a vid from you in a while. Roadkill was cancelled. From what Finnegan said, the hosts got dibs on the cars, before they're sold off. Neither him nor Freiburger mentioned wanting Mayhem. Was thinking if you had any interest in Mayhem, you could contact Freiburger to pull it for you, so you can get it back? Just a thought. BTW I'm sure those roadkill magazines are in demand....maybe high demand now. Especially the first issue. People out there still looking for the first issue. Hope you're good. Looking forward to another video from you. 👍

      Hi Targa. I’m good. Been spending some time on my sons channel, Nut Job Garage. And money has been tight so can’t do any big expenditures. I would totally be interested in General Mayhem but I’m sure I’ll easily be out bid. Mayhem is actually owned by Freiburger. It was his then he sold it to Motor Trend when it got the Hellcat. Then he bought it back and rebuilt the OG motor home 440 which is in it now.
