1965 Dodge 880 Custom
So a buddy of mine decided he didnt want this car anymore and just gave it to me. I really suck on the internet when it comes to researching things and want to restore this car origional as possible. Any help i can get would be great. Right now i cant seem to aquire a radiator for it, mostly because everyone i talk to has never heard of this car. Along with a radiator my rear windows dont roll down so im wonderin where i can go to get that fixed.

Well for starters, welcome to the forum.
Do you have any pics? Are you sure of the year, and make and model? Maybe someone here can run the VIN for you. (not saying that you don't know, just to be sure.)

you may have to call around. Summit lists parts for it but you have to tell it that you have a custom, leave out the 880. You can always take meassurements of the radiator and probably get another one that fits another vehicle to fits yours. As for the window regulator and weather stripping, JC Whitney has a bunch of odd stuff, maybe they can help you out.

Hey im also lookin to get some dual exhaust for it when i come back from the desert and im wonderin what would be the best bet for my 383 motor. i was thinkin dual 40 series but unsure of the size of piping. what do you all think?

At least 3" for stock exhaust. If you have performance upgrades (intake, carb, ignition, headers, nothing internal done though) then go up to 3.5" or maybe even 4" if you are producing a lot of power.

I have a Holley 4bl 650 cfm, new intake manifold and air filter. im lookin to get headers, cam and lifter kit very soon so any information on what i should get would be very helpful. if you can send links to where i should go for those things that would be good too. other than jegs n stuff.
#17
I understand where to go to find the parts i need and want for the engine im just saying with regards to the cam. What would be good for street performance? Good brand for my 383 and how much lift? GO!!!!
