Subject: Quarter Panel Bezel WANTED

Hello all....
Rounding up the very last pieces to send to the chrome shop and find that
I
am missing one of my rear quarter panel bezels that surround the
red/white/blue medallion for my 300C. I thought Gary Goers was doing
repros,
but he isn't at the present time...... Anyone have a spare... I don't care
if it needs rechroming, just in rechromable condition would work. If you
have one that doesn't need chroming, that is fine too.

Thanks
George

I know someone has answered this question before but I have lost the
answer.  What are the widths of the two pin stripes and the distance
between them for a 300k.  I am referring to the stripping that runs the
length of the side an a little around the front and back.

Thanks

Greetings Group!
     I measured mine on my Roman Red hardtop prior to starting on the body
work three years ago, and saved it all this time, and I amazed myself that
I
found where I wrote it down- Like Johnny Rivers said "wrote it on the
wall"
next to my tool boxes! Wide stripe is 1/4", spaced by 1/8", small stripe
is
1/8". I have another K out back that has been repainted years ago and it
has
2 1/8" stripes. I also have a fender and door off a K hardtop, no evidence
of repaint on either and they have the same as our Roman Red  (Kelly's K)
hardtop- 1/4"x 1/8"x1/8".  Joe Pierce 300J+Kx3+others...

Same here- being I live in "farm country" also I can check different  Case
International dealers in this area and Wyoming when I get down that way, A
picture and description would be a great help to show the parts people so
they might be able to walk over to a bin and pick one up......Joe Pierce

Subject: 300H heads

Hi gang,
My resto was going well until Saturday when I started the engine for 
the first time since its rebuild. When I put water in the radiator 
before starting it, I noticed a few drops of water dripping from the 
joint in the exhaust pipe. Didn't think too much of it until I fired 
up the engine and a lot of water and steam came out the tailpipe.  
The good news is the engine ran, the bad news is the left head is 
cracked.  The engine builder told the guy I bought the car from that 
he magnafluxed the block and heads, apparently not.
I'm looking in Govier's Casting Numbers booklet and there are two 
different casting numbers listed but they both have the same part 
number.  There is also a separate listing for the 300H, but the 
casting number and part number is the same as the line above it.  
What is the difference, if any, between the casting numbers? One 
little oddity is that the casting number on the head looks like 
2208324, but the number in the book is 2206324.  This head is from a 
62 Imperial.  The book says the casting for the 300H should be 
2206924.
Now I need to track down a good head to replace the broken one.  I 
guess the car won't be ready for the May shows.
Another thing I noticed is on the Felpro head gasket.  There are two 
small water return holes in the block and head that are not in the 
gasket.  Is this normal? should I punch holes in the gasket to allow 
the water to flow? 

Your help would be appreciated,
Mark Souders

Subject: Steel brake lines for '57 - '62

I am having some new steel brake lines made for my 300F and would like to
see if other club members need new steel or stainless steel lines for
their
precious investment.  Not looking to make money, just reduce costs.  If
interested, please contact me privately.

Subject: '63 300J Claret Dash Cluster Paint

Hi All,

I finally found a source for the dash cluster paint
(Claret Interior) for the '63 300J and sport series. 

Paint Code 71280 is called "Burgundy Red Poly"
and is a semi-gloss.

I had to buy one pint of paint and they filled (3)
16 oz. aerosol cans with paint.

If anyone needs a can, contact me privately.

Thanks-
Mark Lindahl
'63 300 Conv.

   From: John Hertog <crossram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: Steel brake lines for ram cars - reply

Hi Louis,

Repro steel lines are currently available from either Fine Lines, or
Inline
Tube - I forget which, I think the latter. This includes the
master-to-distribution block line, which is correctly made with the extra
"thickness" at bottom, and it's the correct shape for ram cars.

I prefer to make my own lines, there's really not much to it, the only one
that I have found useful to purchase is the aforementionned
master-to-distribution block as it cannot be easily duplicated.  Inline
Tube
also remanufactures the correct ram car fuel lines.

The last remaining brake line to redo is the long front-to-rear line. That
can be accomplished by purchasing a 25' roll of coiled armor shielding
directly from your Chrysler dealer, and buying a roll of 3/16th steel
line,
and slipping one over the other, and bending to shape. The fact that the
armor is over the steel line actually makes it easy to bend and reduces
any
possibility of kinking.

Hope this helps.
John
