Ordered some Hooker Comp and Flowmasters. Do you just cap the fitting on the air cleaner that has a hose to the exhaust manifold? How have yall done the cap, Fabricated something?

Know this post is a couple years old but just wanted to say thanks for sharing. Ordered mine yesterday.

Southern Armature B'ham did a good job rebuilding this. About the only time I have to put it back on is when the lil one is asleep and the car is right below her bedroom. Nah, man Monday is good. LMAO School starts back and I'll have plenty of time. These guys only do alternators, starters and...

Red exterior, green carpet?

I dropped it off this morning. After seeing a couple rebuilt ones on their counter that looked brand new I asked the guy if it was going to look like them.... "Yep". Well heck yea man. I can live with 70 bucks and looks good. Thanks yall. Have a great weekend. :-)

Having the alternator reworked on the 73. I have decided to keep the car as original as possible. Was thinking about seeing if they can powder coat the shell or maybe even chrome. Does this take away from the originality if I put her in a show later. $70 bucks to have it rebuilt, looks like a...

ANIMALS too. David you don't know if the original door speakers are 4 or 8 ohm do you. The bluetooth amp I installed runs hot as a firecracker when I put them inline. Rear box speakers 4 ohm are ok. Amp is 4 ohm. I have original wiring and boots. Right now I just have them disconnected from the...

I've got the 73 demo tape. It's pretty cool to have since I'm keeping the 8track. Did add a behind the radio bluetooth amp. 8tracks have that distinctive metallic sound. It's almost like you can hear that big old tape rubbing across that head.

It's the alternator. I took the never used regulator off old Rusty (71) just to make sure it wasn't both. Was so looking at the chrome one on CJPony. Found a local place that can rebuild the original for $70. I'm going that route and they said it was a day or two turn around. I could throw...

The F and the S pins on the regulator Jeff. Thinking you may have fat fingered that 3. :cool: Found this: Voltage regulator teminal (I) goes to key switch Acc or Coil Risistor Voltage regulator teminal (A) goes to Alternator Battery Connection Voltage regulator teminal (S) goes to Alternator...

Most Excellent my man! We're gonna have to meet up half way one day. Take some car pics, drink some coffee. :-)

12.3 while idling. Can charge it and drive around the blocks a few times, then it won't crank. Reved the engine with the lights on and don't see them dim any. There's only 4 things here right? Battery, alt, voltage regulator and solenoid. Guess I'll take the battery out tomorrow and have it...

Getting 12.3v at the battery when cranked. Dead cell or alternator?

Story of my life. Ex cancels watching the lil one at the last min. They'll be other shows. New game plan. Survive the weekend, run my errands Monday morning with the therapy ride. Stay positive my friends.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks buddy!

I'm a cherry boy. This is a pony show by the main Ford dealer in town. The flyers say awards so I assume trophies and classes. How does this all work? Just show up and register, they give the car a once over and assign a class? Park where they tell ya an open the hood? I'm pretty excited but...

Off the H code 71. Frame and springs look pretty good, has the metal tags. Foam is old but doesn't seem to be breaking down. Gawd awful fabric color/pattern. LOL Located Central Alabama. I guess I could ship. Any interest?

All good advice but might I suggest right before you make the final decision, take her out and run her hard. Throw on some Zeppelin IV and crank it loud.

Most appreciated Jim.

Rims on my 73 look practically brand new. I think I read somewhere on here it is popular to clear coat them. How can you tell if that's the case. I've tried a little polish in a place ya can't see and the clean rag does come back with the typical black residue as if polishing stuff I know is...
