Glad that you guys can use them.  I just wish I had more time to scan the ones I have to do (have several hundred to go yet).  I have been trying to fill in the missing issues in my Hi Performance Cars collection (a 1965 to 1975 set) before I started scanning again on those.  Someone really needs to start a digital library on old car magazines as alot of people have them, but they either get locked away or thrown in the trash over time.  That is sad as I see a whole generation that is missing out from reading from that era.  Anyways, this month there is a large swap meet that I always go to find more magazines (usually quite cheap but not always the best conditon).  As soon as I can find more information that you guys can use, I will try to scan and post them here.......

I have just scanned a rare piece of Mopar literature that I got off of ebay a few months ago.  It is an orginal 1967 overseas order manual.  Have any of you ever seen one?....

Hey everyone...

Doing some more research here... Anyone have vintage mag articles on '68 Hemi Chargers or the '69 Hemi C500? I believe the later was in Car and Driver?

Hi Troy, I have a 4spd 68 Charger HEMI original and unmolested under the hood. My Master Cylinder has a cadmium plated top which is bolted on with a strap. This is an 11" drum power brake car. The booster and body of the master cyl are black. The check valve nipple has no extra vacuum ports and is straight up it was white and painted black with the booster. The heater hose do run thru a bracket bolted to the right fender well. The hose clamps on the booster vacuum supply hose are the same style as the radiator hoseclamps. The ground strap from the intake to firewall has orange paint on it similar to the ngative battery cable. I have problems posting pics but should be able to answer any questions.

This is from May 1985 Car Review. They say it is original but has manual brakes. Looks like the master cyl is unpainted.
