Malibu Wagon 83 from France

[sebastian305]

Hello,
Thank you Ribbedroof.

If I understand the Side Marker (on fender) has a Turn Signal. It interest me a lot, I can therefore me connect in US version.
It works with a dual filament Bulb? Or there two bulbs?
Here is how it looks on my Wagon. (two Cable one filament)

Is possible if the wiring from my Wagon is in US Version, because each wiring european lamp has soldered a tin.

For the Km/h speedo, I know there are at least two version :
From a A Body with a TH200

And my G Body with a TH350

Good Sunday yet thank's for your help.

Did Franck find the '35 Dodge in Florida?

Bonjour Jacques,
Yes Franck bought the 1935 Dodge in Florida, has Venice. The Mister from Venice bought it in Quebec in 2000.

Bon dimanche Jacques.

Sebastian, the way the side lamp is wired, it uses the single wedge base (trade #194) bulb as both the marker (running) lamp, and the signal lamp. When the headlamps are off, it flashes with the front signal lamp. When the headlamps are on, it flashes opposite of the front signal lamp.

With headlamps on, the marker lamp goes out when the front signal lamp is illuminated, and comes on when the front signal lamp is off. It alternates with the front lamp flashes.

With headlamps on, once the turn signal is cancelled, the side lamp goes back to constant illumination.

Not sure if this helps or not...not sure I'm doing a good job of explaining it.

Thank You Ribbedroof for your explanations. I think I will leave the connection for the front Marker.

Hello,
Some Pictures to show you that I pulls with my Wagon.
I drive often. I am not a French who goes to Sunday in meeting with the American Car and weekdays the driving in four cylinder turbo diesel...
Thank you Americans for having built a solid and reliable car that brings me happiness.

I have just done the compulsory Roadworthiness, is very good and I made 25558 Km (15881 miles) between the Two Controls (all two years).
Good Night.
