Mark, you need to get a video of this thing running......nice job by the way. Would love to see/hear it running and revving!!!

Didn't say there was a problem......just want to use different style wires.

Thanks, I'll keep my eyes open for an original.......

Nice, thanks Don..... This is what I found with mjlan's contribution........... http://www.autozone.com/ignition-and-tune-up/distributor-cap/ford/bronco/1979/8-cylinders-h-5-8l-2blmodified-ohv Should be able to get something........Thanks!!

Anyone know if there is and/or who makes a push on style cap for the plug wires instead of the push in? I thought when I was in high school in the early 80's I had converted my '71 mach to this style. In fact I thought it also increased the circumference of the cap to the larger electronic style...

Well I pulled the top of the carb off this weekend to check the jets. Got them out no problem........I did a great job when I cleaned and rebuilt because they were spotless. Put it back together and played with the needles some.....still ran the same. Next I thought, I better check the firing...

I'll check the mains this weekend.......Good tip, when I was in there cleaning I could not get them out on the bench. Strapped to the car now may give me more torque so I should have better luck getting them out........thanks

What do you mean you'll 'pick up local for $89 plus tax'. is that new for that price?? and local?? seems quite low to me but I havn't started a search for mine yet. I thought they would be at least 2-3 hundred bucks.....

Thanks guys.........I'll give Amazon a try.

Who has the best pricing for rust bullet?? Getting ready to make the purchase........ Thanks...........jim

Damn you and those rims......I bet I've looked at the pics from your red car a hundred times since you posted them....they look great on the car. I bet from the back they will look great too. Did you get them local or order them?? .......jim

Yah I know this an old thread, but your mod looks almost like a Maverick.....and yes I do like it, the Mav was a cool car too....

More than likely restomod.....There are too many updated things you can do to these cars to make them better than they were factory. I'm talking mostly powertrain and suspension wise. My main goal is to get the car back on the road so I can use it for now, than eventually either restore fully or...
