Engine oil
Fitment must be confirmed
Capacity and viscosity vary by engine. Many owners of flat-tappet classic engines run a high-ZDDP classic-car oil — a choice, not a factory specification.
Air filter
Fitment must be confirmed
Round dry element; size differs between the six-cylinder and V8 air cleaners. Measure yours.
Spark plugs
Fitment must be confirmed
Heat range and gap are engine-specific across this generation — follow the tune-up chart for your model year and engine.
PCV valve
Fitment must be confirmed
Valve and grommet differ by engine. Match to the engine actually in the car.
Fuel filter
Fitment must be confirmed
Type depends on the carburettor or injection fitted, including later replacements. Verify before ordering.
Drive belts
Fitment must be confirmed
V-belt count and length depend on engine and options (power steering, air conditioning, alternator). Measure the belts on the car.
Coolant / antifreeze
Fitment must be confirmed
Conventional green ethylene-glycol antifreeze at a 50/50 mix suits a period cast-iron engine. Capacity varies by engine — fill to level, not to a quoted quantity.
Brake pads & shoes
Fitment must be confirmed
Drums were standard on early cars with front discs optional on V8s; later years differ. Order to match what is fitted, not to the model year.
Wiper blades
Fitment must be confirmed
Blade length and arm fitting vary through the generation — measure the blades on the car; an adapter may be needed for a modern blade.
Battery
Fitment must be confirmed
12-volt. Group size fitted today varies by car — check tray and cable clearance. Modern equivalence, not a factory specification.
