Even though recycling is popular, it seems like our society has gotten used to throwing certain things away instead of repairing or rebuilding them. Electronics is a good example, as items such as telephones and television sets would be repaired in the past if they stopped working. Now we simply get rid of the phone or TV and get the latest model. Our cars are no exception to this, especially since nearly every part to rebuild your Mopar is available these days. But what about the parts that aren’t reproduced or readily available? We were recently faced with a fuel pickup and sending unit issue in our ’69 Newport, and checked around for a new pickup and sending unit. Instead of paying a premium for a new or N.O.S. unit, however, we decided to simply repair ours and save some money.
