I would be surprised if it had a power glide. It would require an adapter plate and such. And I don't 'think' a 'serious' racer would have used a Summit carb. How about a few pics of the engine and, if you can get under it, a shot or two of the tranny.

Nice find! It's great that you were already stocking parts for it.. That's taking the hobby to the next level!

Thanks for clarifying. Here's what I would try next. Start the car and if it still will not stop running when you turn the key to 'off' try removing both of the small wires from the solenoid. If the engine stops running leave the wires disconnected and test the two small...

Howdy from Phoenix! Great looking car. I like how that white top 'pops'.

I am confused. Your original post indicates that the starter won't shut off but your latest post indicates the car keeps running. Do you have a multimeter available?

That's great. And a great looking car!

Wiring is the first thing to check. Easy test is to remove the black wire and see if the engine cranks. If it doesn't then move the yellow capped wire to the black wire side and see if it cranks. A multimeter is helpful too. One wire will have power only when the key is turned to the...

Greetings from Phoenix! Looks like a 'sleeper' with the subtle pain and 'dog dish' hub caps.

I am so sorry for you. I am glad you are okay. This is my concern every time I drive mine, that some ***** will take out my car. It's my second Mustang and the second car I ever owned. The first one, a 73 Mach1, was taken out by a drunk driver. I hope it turns out for you but that looks...

That water pump diagram is awesome.

Welcome to the board! You have conflicting requirements. "I won't skimp when quality is involved" but you are considering purchasing someone else's restoration. Almost certainly someone else skimped at some point in their restoration, and if they truly feel they didn't, they will command a...

For a convertible, like ours, it should be at the tippy top.

It sure sounds like vapor lock. How are you confirming fuel pressure? When the car won't start try putting a small amount of fuel down the carb and see if it runs for a second or two.

That's awesome!

Welcome from Phoenix! You've found a great place for support and encouragement. And I love that color combo!

Welcome, this is a great board where you'll find a lot of help and encouragement.

Welcome from Phoenix. That's a clean looking ride! You've found a great place for encouragement and information

And a big howdy from Phoenix!

I am not an expert on Holley carbs but I will offer some shade tree advice. Realize that Holley Carbs are very tunable and adjustable. This is both their benefit (to racers) and folly (to most of us). Most of the 'tunability' can be found with proper float adjustment, proper accelerator...

Very handsome car and clean looking too!
