Welcome from Chicago!

I will let you know thanks

I am about 20 minutes from Downers Grove, I would think you would drive right past me on the way. I assume you would take 80W to 355N to get to Downers Grove and I am about a mile off of 355 a little south of Downers Grove exit.

I have the full set of original tinted glass that was in my car when I bought it, except the windshield, that was cracked so I tossed that as soon as I removed it. They are in pretty good shape. I replaced it all with new dark smoked glass when I reassembled my car. I have both front door's...

What are drippers? Is there a baffle inside that makes them drippers? Sorry but I am still learning Ford, haha.

I have a standard steering column for sale. I went through it and cleaned and painted it black. As I reassembled it, I replaced the turn signal switch, ignition switch, and rag joint. I used the lower steel portion of the original rag joint because the rag joint that I bought did not match up to...

I have a passenger side rear quarter trim for a fold down seat car for sale, it is in good condition, there is some overspray on it, but you could redye it. The previous owner drilled two small holes in it for some reason, you can see them best in the pictures from the back of the panel. I am...

I have a set of nice front kick panels for sale. They are in good condition one of the tabs is broken on the passenger side but the driver's side has both intact. I am asking $50.00 or best offer plus shipping.

I have a set of decent condition black deluxe door panels for sale. I would consider them to be driver quality, the armrests are not cracked but they are starting to distort, the wood grain on the inserts has peeled on the one panel and the panels were clearly originally white with black carpet...

The stainless lines look awesome on your car! It makes me wish that I didn't cheap out and get the steel ones, haha. As far as the caliper hardware, there are supposed to be some brake pad anti-rattle retainer pins and clips on the outer pads, the pins come through the pads and caliper and are...

I am using a guy near my house, Ralph the Radio Guy, in Bartlett IL. He works out of his house about 35 minutes from my house. I had one of my other radios upgraded a few years back with Aurora Design components and was very happy with the results. I reached out to the company that did my other...

As long as the only channel my stock radio gets clearly has switched (too early) to 24 hours Christmas, I thought it was a good time to take the radio out and have it upgraded to modern innards. I am having it upgraded to a four channel x 45W integrated amp, a sub woofer output, blue tooth...

I am not sure if this is a sign that I am driving the car too far in to the fall/winter or if they are just starting to play Christmas music too early. My original radio only gets one channel clearly and it happens to the be the light rock channel that plays Christmas music in the Christmas...

It probably will, but the carb may need to be cleaned if any debris from the tank and old fuel got that far, hopefully it didn't get that far. The fact that it was running, even poorly, is a good sign for the carb, I think.

Like brand new, only stronger, haha. I thought about adding frame connectors when I was doing my car, but ended up not installing them. I regret not installing them for the handling aspect, I was trying to keep it original looking, so I took the trade off. Yours look great on your car, nice job!

It is always good to start with a clean fuel tank and lines and fresh gas, I have always found it to be money well spent.

I painted the inside door handle cups and installed them yesterday so the door panel project is officially done. I took it out and drove it to celebrate, it rained Sunday morning early so the streets were still a little damp in some places but it was worth it. I drove 67 miles yesterday, all...

I am not sure if it is normal but I had the same experience with my car. It came from the desert SW (Las Vegas) maybe that is where it all came from? The desert sand mixing with extra grease from the control arm. Once I got through that crud, my car had seam sealer just gobbed in there from the...

It looks like you have gotten a lot done, it's going to look great in yellow! I sure don't miss the sanding stage, haha. Keep up the good work.

I installed the door panels now that I am done cleaning them up and it really makes the interior feel complete, finally. I still need to reupholster the seats over the winter but at least there aren't any major components missing anymore. I will need to get over to Eastwood and buy some SEM...
