    head light door

    I have tanks that I made for striping and I just flush them out when I change chemicals. My problem is that I have a crippled hand that makes it hard to hold things some times so when I buff or polish something, I have to try and be very careful some times you win, some times you lose.

    I received my interior parts order from NPD last night and found the upholstery set listed in their catolog on pg 8, P/N : UD-13-65-BCW as MEDIUM BLUE, it is the only "blue" color they list. Sadly it is DARK BLUE and not the correct color match to the head liner P/N : HC-13-C and sun visors P/N...

    No starting

    Pull your spark plugs and look at them, they could be fouled enough not to fire regardless of what voltage you have at the coil. If it a points system? you may have a bad or weak condenser. More information as to what it was running like before may help pinpoint the problem, possible contacts...

    Very deep pockets

    I'm just a poor retired grease monkey that has to spend his SSI on drugs to stay alive. I could never afford ANY car that is or was a dust collector. If? I were lucky enough to win the lottery, I could get some new body parts and then some play toys. This "stang" was on a car lot so you know its...

    Very deep pockets

    post id: 4911232689 I found this on the Portland Craigs list: a 70 boss 302 for $ 84,950. it would take a life time of S&H green stamps and then some to buy something like this. Would they let it park inside Fort Knox? LOL:run_horse:

    Conversion to Sanden AC Compressor

    If you are running a V-8?, I can send you a photo of the scroll compressor that is on my wifes 73 Grande with a 351C. I have not looked at the brand name but the automotive scroll compressors are close to the same size. The AC system was updated before we got the car.
