    Correct Master Cylinder?

    Good Morning Gents and Ladies. I have yet another question. As I am sure you can tell I am gathering parts for another repair/resto. Last night I had my wife order a master cylinder and she says there are 2 available. One has a 1" piston bore and both brake line holes are 3/16" I believe. The...

    All components painted with Slop Grey

    I disassembled a 73 coupe and a lot of these parts were very dark but not black. Is that the "dark" slop grey? Was there a difference in years or just luck of the draw. I only ask because I ended up with the dark slop grey because my parts looked that dark.

    1973 Grille chrome question

    I might be buying my fathers 1973 Mach 1 q code, and one of the first things that jump out at me is the grille. It looks terrible and has several cracks. I am looking into replacing it but have seen some reviews that the chrome doesn't line up well and the little plastic clips don't hold the...

    Rebuilt proportioning valves on Ebay

    Anybody ever buy a rebuilt proportioning valve on Ebay? Says "KH rebuilt" like I am supposed to know what that means. Anybody have any experience with these? There are many replacements out there but some are distribution blocks and others claim to be proportioning valves. I bought one a couple...

    Repop deluxe dash panel - how did you secure it? (They made the mounting posts smaller)

    I found a multi-pack of the sheet metal speed nuts at local auto parts store and it had the right size to bite the studs. And I drilled out the holes that take the screws so the factory screws would actually fit them, then I used wax on the screw threads so they went in easier. If you notice...

    Automatic Shifter Bushings Replacement

    This is not too hard of a fix. Just disconnect the linkage right at the bottom of the shifter. (mark it first). Then go inside the vehicle, remove shifter plastic bezel, and locator black out strip, and maybe Neutral safety switch. (Trying to remember the steps) Then If I recall it was a 9/16"...

    rubber mats under carpet... how to secure them?

    If they are in good shape there is no problem in reusing them. It is a sound deadener. It called carpet underlayment. I used it in my car and the new carpet still fit well. I took it one step further and insulated the floor under the rear seat with Dynamat as well because that is where my...

    Radiator brackets with new Champion radiator

    I had to totally remove the bottom tabs on mine, and then I welded 3/8 by 2" blocks on top that fit my brackets, now it sits almost exactly like the original! Luckily I am a welder, but if you want to see how I did it let me know. PS: Radiator has been working great!!

    Curious about Bendix Brake Booster "pedal feel"

    I have a re-man booster with stock calipers and slotted rotors, and my engine only has 15hg vacuum, stainless flexible brake lines and drums in back still. My pedal is stiff but by no means unusable. Just stiff. Cardone did my booster as well. Good luck!

    interior

    You do have to install them with everything apart. They are made to pull in a bit. I don't remember exactly how I did it but it is possible and they do look good when done. I just remember I had to re-make a few pieces in there to make everything work! PS; don't forget and extra layer of jute...
