The one that is $350 is supposed to be NOS. I think that guy on eBay is toll that listed parts that other have in stock as when I asked for a photo I got grief. I put in an email to MMPAR or whatever Franks successor named the biz. If I cannot get an NOS one then Murry will me my next call. James From: pffkllc@xxxxxxx <pffkllc@xxxxxxx> $350 seems pretty expensive, unless you are talking about an NOS motor. Try contacting Murray Park in Tiffin, Ohio. I'll bet he hs one or more.
Just Google him. Pete Fitch -----Original Message----- Can someone confirm for me that the mechanism (gear box and motor mount) is MOPAR 1963-827 ? I found one for $350 and want to make sure that it is the part before I try and order it. Also in the master parts book it says that the front door mechanism is the
same side-to-side but my memory is that they were side specific which makes me wonder if I have the wrong part number from the book. Thanks, James From: 'James Douglas' via Chrysler 300 Club International <chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Hi Bob, I did that in the past on the other cars. The swinging of the door on closing and the abrupt stop is causing the G-force of that motor to try and rip off
that casting… I need to order up a full set of leathers and washers for the car. I am going to see of I can find another mechanism for that door and rebuild it and swap out the
one that is a mess. You can see in the photo that the brace was cut. Also, the hole and the long screws in the gear box. All in all a mess. James From: Bob Merritt <bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
One thing many of us have done is rig up a strap from the door frame to the motor so the diecast is supported. Bob On 5/1/2023 9:48 AM, James Douglas wrote:
