Subject: Re: Letter cars at RM Auctions
I was at the RM Auction along with Bill Madden and Timo Tanskanen when these cars went on the block. We felt at the time that these cars that were hammered "sold" actually had not been.
I noted this on a previous email missive to Listsrv a couple of months ago when I also mentioned that it is a jungle out there when you go to the auction and expect to do well.
Someday one of these magazines or other publications that claim to give us the straight info in their auction reports will get the courage and honesty to do a fair and accurate expose of these business's but I will not hold my breath.
Meanwhile read them for the humor that the display but take what they say with a dash of skepticism.

Check out the 3 letter cars being offered at RM
Auction in Novi Michigan April 23-27. They look
suspiciously like the cars from the Dr Paige
collection that RM auctioned off in Phoenix in
January.
Is sombody out to make a quick return? or did they
really sell at Phoenix?

Subject: Re: Letter cars at RM Auctions
I was told by a person that follows auction sales , a good deal of the cars
that go to auction, are put on the block just to keep a value in the car,
not to sell. They are bid up to just below the reserve price by fake bids.
The seller takes away a proven value for future sale from the auction and
that's about all.
Maybe others can comment if this is true or not.

You bet it is tough. Years ago trailer manufacturer's started buying up all
of them they could find for light trailers. Your best bet is to find
Chrysler, Dodge, DeSoto and maybe Plymouth station wagon rims.. There is a
trick I learned years ago for measuring rims with tires still on them. Take
a steel tape measurer and insert through the cooling slots and catch the zero
end on the lip on the inside and measure to lip on your side. I don't
remember the inches it is supposed to be on the 6.5 inch wheel as opposed to
the fastly more numerous 6 x 14 wheels. Measure on one of your known 6.5s
for the measurement required. It took me 6 months to find the number of
missing 6.5's my small fleet required. If anybody wants me to measure a
spare and post the required inches, just ask

OK, I have actually seen this critter, THERE IS another Mopar 14x6.5 rim, it is
newer then 57-58 timeframe. The way to tell on these particular ones is the
presence of the little nubs to hold dog-dish style hubcaps.
All my 14x6.5 rims have a smooth center section hub, NO little nubs!!
Could these have orginated for the Dodge Trucks?????
as an aside, have actually seen a dog-dish style hubcap with the CHRYSLER
C and 3 crowns logo like the center cup of the steering wheel of the 57
Newyorker. Didnt think The Chrysler line had dog-dish style hub caps!

Don't think this will ever happen because most of the publications that we are
familiar with depend on the advertising $$$$$$$$$ generated by those full-page
ads every month. I do remember Matt Joseph, writing in Skinned Knuckles in the
early 90s, railing against some of the better known publications (Cars and
Parts, for example) for accepting the whole auction scene hook, line and
sinker.
As usual, caveat emptor.

Subject: Rims for a D
Hi to all,
With regards to 300D rims - Larry, I think our friend Danny is hoping for
someone on this list to come up with suitable rims for his car. Your
instructions are excellent, but I imagine it would be hard for Danny to
locate anything in Finland, if these suckers are so hard to come by here in
the USA !
It has been my privilege to help Danny over the past few years locate parts
for his cars; I use the term "privilege" because of Danny's dedication to
his 300D, and the quality of his restoration. The car will be absolutely
superb when done. I have seen pictures, and I am very, very impressed !
Should anybody come up with some rims for Danny - one, two, three, or four,
you will only have to ship them to me here in NY; I'll get them from here to
Finland, together with some other parts of Danny's.
C'mon, Club members - help out !

Subject: Re: G Choke and Parking Brake
Richard,
When you get your G running as it should you'll find that all you need to
do a "power slide" mentioned in question 2 is to
do this in unison: punch the accelerator and turn the wheel either
direction - you will do power slides until the tires burn off the rims. Do
not attempt to apply the emergency brake while turning the wheel and
accelerating as it is depressed with the left foot and disengaged by hand
with the pull lever. Remember, you are not driving an underpowered front
wheel drive car where it is necessary to lock the e-brake to make it spin
out. As the tv car commercials say in their disclaimer - "professional
driver on a closed course - do not attempt on your own." Just punch it and
turn the wheel !!!!!! ENJOY......

I listened to the owner of Stockton Wheels in Stockon, CA two weeks ago talking about the
custom wheels they make and the repairing old bent wheels etc. Somebody called in and
asked him what were the hardest stock wheels to find today. He replied Mopar. He said
years ago they were around by the thousands and now he can barely find them. So if anybody
has any of the 14 but mainly 15 inch Mopar wheels I wouldn't through them away Ounce
there gone you will never be able to replace them. Gary Barker

Subject: Autolite sparkplugs
I got a little suprise the other day visiting the Autolite spark plug site.
They have a listing for 1957 392 hemi's. Part of the listing states a
3/8" reach plug instead of the more familiar 3/4" reach plug I am used to.
SO I asked their tech support and sure enough the reply I got back
says their catalog shows this situation. Anyone familiar with a 392
with a 3/8" reach plug application???

The 14 inch HD wheel used on our Brutes have a 14 x 6.5 wheel used with

measure 8 7/8 inches to the outside bead. This with a tire mounted so you
can't just measure 6.5 inches between the inside upright beads. Should
anybody find same in a pile at a wrecking yard, they would be well advised to
buy and stockpile. I have a 6.5 in my garage with a 9 inch split on the
inside bead caused by old age, metal fatigue, radial tires and/or driving too

My question is regarding the infamous 'power piston', which is powered by engine oil pressure. I know how the high pressure oil line gets to the unit, but I have no hose connected to the 'drain port' on the unit. According to the manual, a hose from this port makes it way to the engine oil pan? Any help appreciated.

Subject: Re: Letter cars at RM Auctions
Greetings Group-
My experience with auctions is limited to Silver Auctions out here in
the wild west. He did a auction in Billings, Mt. a couple of years ago that
I attended as I know the guy who was auctioning off his "collection" of
restored, complete restorable, and parts cars, 90% Mopars. It was advertised
as a "no reserve" auction- well I found out first hand how that works- the
guy selling has "friends" come and bid on cars (fake bids/bidders)to either
up the price to his non- existent reserve or buy them and sell them back to
him. About 30+ cars were "sold" this way and this guy wound up keeping them
as they didn't meet his non-reserve selling price. I lost a considerable
amount of respect for both this man and Silver for this charade. With due
respect to Silver I don't know if he was aware of the sellers intent to do
that or not, but I think if not before the auction he must have figured it
out at some point later. Unless they are cheap parts cars- watch out for the
guy bidding against you- he may be a "buyer" for the seller! I feel from
this experience and what I have learned from the members on this web server-
If you or someone you know wants a Letter Car- get it from a member for all
the above reasons and the oblivious- Thru the club the car can be
documented. That is money in the bank and not in the auctioneers pocket! My
nickel's worth, sorry if I drug this out.. Joe Pierce 300J+Kx3+M+others.....

On power piston you must have two hoses: one which goes to the solenoid
and another (drain ) which goes to ... nothing !! The two hoses are
routed through the firewall (grommets). The "drain" hose hangs along the
solenoid and the end is 4 inches below it. So if ther's some oil drained
through this hose it will drop along the firewall...
Note that you've another "hose" which goes to oil pan (or rather oil
filler tube) but this hose comes from the solenoid. This is not a rubber
hose, except at solenoid end. This oil line (same as oil line coming
from the rear of engine to the solenoid) runs along the left valve cover.
I've perhaps one or 2 pics if you need.

Subject: Re: MORE ON MOPar
ive been told that the term comes from a string of parts stores
[like checker or pep boys of today] only they were selling all makes of
parts under the factory backed mopar brand name. along about the late
40's to early 50's a sherman antitrust action shut them down, due to the
factory backing, chrysler only salvaged the mopar name on its own parts
after that. this could be wrong as ive no verification for the story,
cant even remember who told me.

The "power piston" (it's the name that Chrysler used...) is a part of
the '57-58 factory A/C unit. It's an actuator which opens and closes the
"recirculating door" under the dash. This door (which admit cold or
heated air from the plenum area) is linked via a rod to the fresh air
cowl door just under the cowl vent. When one is open the other is close.
The power piston is an engine oil system controled via a solenoid valve.
When solenoid is "on" (A/C position) the engine oil is routed to the
power piston which actuates the doors. When you shut off the engine the
power piston release, the cowl door closes so no water can reach the
interior of the car: "safe position" as said Chrysler ! But you need to
have good oil hose : if not the engine oil leaks on the carpet or on
your feet...
This odd system was replaced on '59 models with vacuum operated system.
