Hi Ribs, Glad you had a fairly good experience. We live in times of high inflation, high labor costs, taxes, and high shipping costs, combined with product shortages, long wait times and poor quality products. Our hobby has become more difficult and quite expensive these days for sure...

Hi Ron, Sorry to hear that. Not funny. Forum feedback on Classic Air seems to be a mixed bag over the years, as some members love the system, and some don't. I fall into the catagory of those that don't. To me Classic Air is a company that talks the talk, but doesn't really walk the walk! I got...

Thanks Tony and Chris, Yes, just to quickly recap, i bought my Classic Auto Air complete system from America back in 2012, and had it professionally installed. Please note that i don't really get to use it much at all on a year 'round basis, given that i live in a sub tropical climate , and...

NEW UPDATE: (17 - 06 - 2024) Hi again, I recently decided to purchase and install a manual heater control valve that is operated by a push /pull cable with knob attached, to give me better , more accurate control of hot water coming into the heater core. I have removed the Classic Auto Air...

Hi James and welcome back. Hope you enjoy the Forum and get some good info as well. Great looking car btw. Greg:)

Hi Ozzy, Thanks for all the photos. Looks like a strip to bare metal respray you've got going on there. Best of good luck with the whole project. Greg.:)

Thank you Sir, That being the case, it does not solve the problems that you have had here. Not good i think. Again, my advice would be to talk to the techs from Westar to see if you can solve the fit up problems you are having, before doing anything else. Your call there. I assume your block is...

Ok. Can you confirm that your existing pedestals/pads are factory '73 originals, and also experimenting with '71/2 pedestals is way out of my knowledge field, and so best of luck with what ever ends up happening there. Maybe another Forum member has gone down that very road and can be of help...

Hi again aces, Thanks for that update. So you bought the 2286 mounts after all, and have install problems or issues with them. That does not sound good at all. Sorry, but i am at a loss here as to what might be the problem here. First up, my original factory engine is a 302 Windsor, and i...

Hi Aces, OK, you say you bought the 2258's for your 1973 Vert. That part number would be incorrect. The correct part number for the '73 Convertible mounts will be the Westar EM - 2286 mounts. My story so far is that i ordered a set of 2286's at the beginning of this year. They are still boxed...

Welcome from Brisbane , Australia Ozzy! Please up load some photos when you get a chance. Greg:)

Hi to all. From an Aussie perspective, Americans going back to the fifties and sixties decades, didn't give a rats (A) about driving around in American cars that were manufactured as high powered V8 gas guzzlers, and why would or should they, as gas prices back then were cheap, affordable, and...

Hi Grant, Thanks for your feedback. The rear speakers are not subs. For the Mach 1, i chose not to run any sub speakers. Size 6x9 inch on the trap door as i recall. Regards the gap, no particular reason doing that. I did not want the speaker box touching the floor, and leaving a gap helps for...

Sorry, but it looks like we'll end up agreeing to disagree on this topic. We could go on debating this for ever, which i really don't want to do sorry. I have put forward all my key points on the table for all to see, and intend to hold firm on them. In any case, thanks for all your input to my...

Hey Geoff, Again i say - The name of the game is to do it right the first time, no matter. SAFETY AND STANDARDS SHOULD AND DO MATTER. Greg

Sorry Sir, i have to disagree with you. People can and do put forward many excuses and reasons to try and justify carrying out bad, cheap, unsafe, or poor quality repairs/workmanship, and end up driving around in a really not roadworthy, unsafe vehicle, but...

Hi Geoff, Yeah, but wasn't he soooooo cooooool. :cool: :cool: :cool:

Sadly, we live in a World today where standards and quality have gone out the door in so many ways. I came into this World where standards, quality and integrity meant something. U Tube is littered with clowns, amateurs, bad standards, lies and falsehoods and mediocrity right across the board...

The name of the game is to do it right the first time, no matter.

You can sand that fast Chuck! Just keep pumpin' on dem horse size pills!:cool:
