New to this- Please help

Postby Fireman14 » Thu May 17, 2012 9:06 pm

Hi Everyone,

I am here to help my grandpa get some information on his car, and be able to contact someone or some place if he were to need a part or some other reference materials. He does not have a computer so I offered to help him.

All he really wants to do is pay the $10/$20 fee (whatever it may be) so he can get information in the mail and be able to get in touch with others- how would he go about doing this???

Any help would be appreciated greatly!!

Hello Fireman14,

Welcome to the club. $10 would be fine for annual dues. You could mail a check to me Guy V.Coulombe, The Chrysler K-Car Club, 6355 Topanga Canyon Blvd, Ste 400, Woodland Hills, Ca. 91367.
I will gladly help. Can you brief me on the car? You can call me tonight California time 818-219-2587 after 7PM. I do the best I can to provide an open door policy to 1,500 members. 8-)

This club does not have a mailed publication or newsletter. Most activity is through this Internet forum and some organized car shows/events in California.

Regarding parts - I suggest this supplier in Arizona (stocks lots of new old stock and good used Mopar parts).
http://www.arizonaparts.com/
Also Rockauto is a very good online source of general aftermarket parts for older cars.
http://rockauto.com/
Also, ebay is a good source.

Regarding service manuals - I suggest you search on Ebay for a set of factory service manuals (usually a set of 3 books for a full set) to match your particular car. (Dealer factory manuals - Not the Chiltons generic type). Prices vary widely so you have to search for a while to find a good price.

Here is an example for 1983, but you can find a similar set for any year.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1983-DODGE-CHRY ... 43a8c3f04a

These sites are also a good source of general K-car info and technical information when troubleshooting problems.

Good luck.

Hi Guy-

Just touching base with you. My grandpa and I have tried multiple times to contact you on the number provided and no such luck- please contact him at 636-343-8471. He is eager to talk for a brief minute with you and is looking forward to it (he promise he wont take up too much of your time :D )
