drill the screw out with drill bit. tweak the mirror enough to put the screw in a bind so that it doesnt easily spin. then drill it out. maybe a two person job.
i am a little late to this party. but it is a no-brainer that the red air conditioning decal wont be used. as i do not see a/c on your car. i would toss out the ignition coil and voltage regulator decals also. since neither one had a decal. they were painted on. need to take those to a place...
I got my seat material from SMS auto fabrics in Canby, OR. The dark green comfort weave is not reproduced. SMS is the only place (i searched for a long time) that I was able to find that has NOS fabric for my car. It was on the expensive side, but not overly so. the dark green metallic vinyl is...
not a 73. but here is a 1971 mach1 that i found today. for sale on marketplace near seattle. looks like original rusty car with pedal trim. so we know that the trim was available on some cars.
can you tell me more. you seem to say that everyone knows that D1OF-AAA is what was used on 4v/auto engines. but then you say that you were able to find the D1OF-FA in a book somewhere. so, what else did your book say ? would the D1OF-FA have been on a Dearborn (oct 6, 1970) 1971 grande with a...
my 1971 Grande (born oct 6, 1970) has deluxe interior. including trim on gas, brake, and e-brake pads. my pedals are factory originals to my car. paint is only thing i know of on my car not original. gas pedal and trim show plenty of wear.
i am searching for an Autolite 4300 carburetor. MUST be stamped with D1OF-FA on the base. although these were often mis-stamped with the D missing. this stamp only appeared on the Autolite carb used on 1971 cars with 351c 4v and c6.
i thank you for posting these photos. they are very helpful. only issue now is maybe how far up from the bottom. from bottom edge of trunk to bottom edge of letters. 1/2" or 3/4" ? again..... very awesome that you posted these photos. thank you again.
did you decide to part it out ? i only ask because i am looking for a particular carburetor that could have originally been on your car. would have the number code D1OF-FA stamped onto the side of carb base by front driver side mounting tab/foot.
being an original M code. does that mean that it also had an Autolite 4300 carb ? if so.... do you still have it ? i would be curious as to what number code may be stamped onto the side of the carb base.
what was original color, and are you keeping it original ?
greetings from the north Idaho town of Harrison. i purchased this 1971 Grande from my best buddy in high school in Cove, OR. my buddy got this about 1983. he used to swing my house in this car and pick me up every single saturday night for 4 years straight. we would cruise the main drag of Adams...
with all of your projects with parts wanted and parts for sale....... can you point me in the right direction to find an Autolite 4300 carburetor that is stamped D1OF FA ? for a 71' grande with 351c 4v and c6.
