We're going to take this as an opportunity to upgrade. Looking for a larger set of Magnum 500's. I'm finding lots of them in 15" sizes in chrome, but ideally we'd like a set of 17's, but the only ones I see in 17 are a polished aluminum, and they justbdont look right to me. Maybe I need to see...

We put 60 miles on our Mach 1 today. On our way to it's first official "cruise night" we felt a vibration around 30mph so we pulled into a parking lot to inspect it. As we were rolling through the right front tire popped real loud and blew out. Tires are date coded from 2014 and have nearly full...

Nope lol. We have 3 Camaro's. I probably have 25 Camaro shirts. I know that's a 4-letter word around here lol.

Oh BTW I paid $75 for it!

My girlfriend spent an hour cleaning it and it turned out very nice! I tell all of my new-car friends that this machine is HP Tuners for old school stuff. Made for a cool photo op.

Can't seem to find much on the history of these things. Over shadowed by the Sun line of equipment I'd bet. I picked it up for a song at an antique dealer and it fits the garage decor very nicely. I don't dare plug it in as the wiring is 80+ years old and a lot of the insulation is shot...

This is the only decent picture I have on this phone.

Each wire coming from the hub has been cut and soldered twice. Looks like someone added a few small sections as needed. Maybe they needed more length for the aftermarket wheel? I'm not sure. I did wrap everything before reinstalling. But at this point I'm likely going to order a new wheel...

Update! Simple cleaning of the copper ring with a scotchbrite pad was all it needed. Horn works! Bad news: now the door ajar buzzer is on even with the key out lol. I tried loosening the steering wheel a bit but no luck. Also the aftermarket horn button won't stay on lol. I'm probably going to...

I'm getting power to the bottom spring loaded post. Somewhere in that copper ring it's losing power. If I put the hub back on I don't get power to the outside wire. Maybe the contacts need a cleaning?

Get a fuel pressure regulator, set up to 6lbs, check the needle/seat assembly. Make sure you have a good fuel filter. Any tiny spec of dirt can hold the needle open. Carbs cab be very sensitive to fuel level In the bowl. Too much fuel in the bowl can make the circuit run rich. I'm not familiar...

Got the circuit breaker in. I made 2 short jumper leads to connect to the factory plugs as I didn't want the cut either plug off. Tested it real quick and it works, see pic. Then I mounted it up high out of the way and reinstalled the glove box. Now for the horn! Pulled the fuse and yep, it...

I picked up a circuit breaker and a box of round fuses. I'll see if I can get some time to tinker with it this weekend.

Thanks to everyone for the help! Update: I got them to work, but good news/bad news lol. There is no circuit breaker in our car. There's a bunch of loose wires with plug ends on them. Found one that had 11+ volt and jumped that into the green/red wire at the turn signal can. I used a cotter...

I'm in there as well in my Z/28. Second page of the UMI Autocross event. Car 137

Thank you very much! That pic showing everything in the picture is likely all I will need! I will dig into the car a bit more this weekend and let you know how it turned out.

Where is that circuit breaker located? You mentioned the "Z" bar in an earlier post but I have no idea what that is. I even Googled it with no luck. I did find 2 random plugs just hanging loose in the glove box and one of them had 11.5v of power when I checked it. I can't even see anything where...

I bought a new brake switch for the pedal, but I'm not getting power to either lead going into the switch. One of the pics is of the brake pedal switch. The same colored wire goes into that relay so I figured it has something do with it. But neither of those wires have power either. I'm an...

Picked up 4 issues of HOT ROD magazine. I'm in there in a CHEVY! I won the UMI Autocross challenge back in July. Theres a small picture of my car in there. Car #137. It's a red 2015 Z/28.

And here I thought we owned the only orange 73 Mach 1 lol. Car looks fantastic! Ours was originally red. Was painted orange a long time ago
