The only white and black wire in the area of the solenoid runs from the alternator to the solenoid or into the mess of wiring that is in that area. No wires with spade like leads. It is possible that one of the previous owners deleted the wire.

So this is where it is hooked up currently. Ignition side of the starter relay I think? Second photo is a loose wire coming from the firewall. Is this the original choke power wire? If so should I clip it and wire the choke power to it?

Definitely grounded. The hot wire traces back to the starter solenoid. Does that sound right? Cause I'm thinking that would only provide power while starting right?

Idle is high. Mechanic said the electric choke isn't functioning. Does my Summit carb have to have a Summit electric choke? Or are they a universal part? Cause I can't seem to find a Summit branded electric choke.

Update. Finally got an opportunity to take her out and run. She does in fact have all 3 gears (seller told me 2). I think maybe her didn't realize it because it shifts so smooth from 2nd to 3rd that I could barely notice it myself. I was babying it home the night I got it due to a combination of...

Not restoring. More hod rodding. I've always loved the late 60's to early 70's aesthetic. Probably because of the movie Dazed and Confused. So my first step was replacing air shocks with gas shocks and new 1 3/4 inch lift leaf springs.

Yeah that is my only concern with its condition. I would assume there is at least a bit of dirt in the line.

Sweet not gonna worry about it for now then

Replacing leaf springs and shocks today and I came across this. I'm assuming it's a vacuum line? How serious of an issue is this? Is it a vacuum line?

I think I'm going to try clamping it in place and heating it with a heat gun to see if it will pull back in. If it won't, no big loss. I'll just keep hunting anyway. As hard as they are to find in good condition, probably a good idea to squirrel a few extras away.

Passenger side piece is the one I really need

I've found 71-72 panel fillers but I'm assuming they won't work because of the 5 mph bumper switch on the 73's?

Having no issues finding almost everything I need. My only issue is the rear quarter to bumper fillers. Am I just screwed? Can't seem to find them anywhere, anyone got a lead on where I could find them in stock? Or know of a way to reform them and get them back close to factory shape? Drivers...

Hit it with some belt dressing this morning and fired her up. Squeal is gone! Yay!

I'll start with new belts and see where it goes from there. Yeah water pump was my first thought. But I was hoping it wasn't that.

Can anyone identify this sound? I thought it might be a belt. But concerned it might be something else.

Yeah it had AC at some point. I think the previous owner said it had gone out and he couldn't find a replacement unit for it. I'm big fat guy so AC is kinda important, but if it's not being driven daily and just coming out to go to cruise ins and stuff I'm not gonna put it at the top of the...

Yes hose A runs to under the carb I'm assuming to the manifold. Haven't traced hose B down to a connection yet. I've had the car for a week. But have been out of town aside from a few quick trips back home. I need to get a good solid set of jack stands so I can get it up and get a better look...

Yeah I was wondering if it had to do with AC since the car doesn't have it.

So should I plug it and see what happens? I'm not sure where the first hose goes but it shares a air chamber with the T line. The third line runs to the other steel tube to the transmission and shares the air chamber with the open port. Is this correct? Just want to make sure that something...
