    72 Sprint

    Saw this pop up in my local FB marketplace today. Looks like a pretty nice example. Can go take a look for anyone who is interested since I'm close. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/271091192364879/?mibextid=dXMIcH

    For those who like a challenge.....

    Well that's about 10 minutes away from me, so if anyone wants to consider getting parts from it, let me know and I can probably get pictures. $3k does seem a bit steep... I mean I would be surprised if there was anything left worth salvaging at the point this car is at, but who knows.

    Springs or coil overs?

    You can buy it off of CJPony. Normally I wouldn't advocate for them as a vendor, but they do a lot of sitewide discounts, so you might be able to time it right and get the kit for 5-10% off MSRP.

    Trying hard to not make this political

    I've had a chance to drive my Tesla now for about 3 years, and I can definitely get behind the sentiment of them not being as "fun" as a lot of gas powered cars. And I don't think that fun factor is something that's really ever gonna be replicated in an EV. However, as a commuter car and a...

    Charcoal canister alternative

    You can just replace the whole system with a vent. I just routed some hose from the fitting on top of the fuel tank to the wheel well with one of these at the end mounted upright.  https://www.summitracing.com/parts/tnk-vvr?seid=srese1 The charcoal EVAP system is supposed to reduce the fuel...

    Springs or coil overs?

    I can't speak to the TCP coilovers specifically as I went with a different brand, but I wouldn't expect ride quality to suffer too badly or at all with these. Most performance oriented coilover kits will opt for heim joints instead of bushings, which will result in harsher ride quality. The TCP...

    Springs or coil overs?

    If you want to go the coilover route, I believe TCP offers a relatively bolt-on kit that gives you ride height adjustability for around the $1,000 range.  http://www.totalcontrolproducts.com/vas_bolton-co.html

    Paint for center gauge console?

    I used SEM trim black as well with good results.

    Rear drum questions

    Here's a pic of the left rear drum on mine before I rebuilt it. The parking brake cable definitely gets inserted from the front and goes to the rear of the drum. I used engine enamel on both the backing plate and the drum and haven't had any issues. I think that stuff is rated for 550°F, so I...

    Nice new product from MSD: solid state relay blocks

     Looks super clean. Been thinking about using one for an electric fan & fuel pump setup in the future.

    What did you do to your car today?

    Today I upgraded my rear axles with some shiny new ones from Dutchman. Noticed a driveline vibration developing a couple of weeks ago and after some trial and error, found out that there was about .040" runout on my right rear wheel at the hub face. I think all the extra traction from bigger...

    Rear pillar trim installation

    If it's the same as the coupe, it goes on top of the quarter panel piece, but underneath the trim piece that runs along the top of the window. If the screw hole isn't lining up, you may need to make sure that the quarter panel piece is positioned correctly and seated down into the quarter...

    Has anyone attempted a rear seat delete?

    Wow this stuff is great! Spent a lot of time doing prep work and I did use a plastic adhesion promoter. I think the key to getting a really good uniform finish with this stuff is really light coats. I did about 6 coats to get these results. We'll see how well it holds up over time I guess.

    How to find the right muffler?

    Just put on flowFX mufflers as well. Very little drone with a reasonably mellow tone and I was able to eliminate the drone entirely by adding a pair of resonators.  Still have a great tone when you get on it, but the sound level when you're cruising is very tolerable.

    1 wire alternator problems

    I'm running this one from painless. Have it mounted on the fender near the starter relay. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/prf-80000

    Has anyone attempted a rear seat delete?

    Well I figured since I already have a can of SEM paint on the way, I might as well give it a shot. I do like your idea of vinyl wrapping them though. I have a few yards of satin black 3M vinyl lying around, so that's gonna be my backup plan.

    Tires!

    Great looking stance. Did you have to do any fender rolling to fit the wheels?

    1 wire alternator problems

    What does your wiring look like from the alternator to the starter relay junction/main harness yellow wire? Sounds like you've got wiring issues somewhere other than the alternator itself. Also would strongly recommend running a 100A inline fuse, if you're not already.
