Come on man! Those $20 beaters we bought as kids were only good as 1 tire fryers. 70 on the speedo was 140 tire speed. The old bias ply didn't blow up like radials do. My buddy did one with a studded snow tire that put .22 size holes in the wheel tub. Too bad it was his mom's car and dad...

RIP Jim, it was a privilege to know you.

Factory ignition such as yours require a ballast resistor.

Hi all, So I swapped the VR to a solid state unit. No more ammeter fluctuations and hopefully better for the electronic ignition. However, I have another question - I still have a ballast resistor on the firewall and it is still connected. I thought most electronic ignitions did not need the...

I grew up shooting wheel guns and didn’t even own an automatic until the late 80s except for a WW1 .45 auto that I fired once and concluded I would never hit anything over 10’ away with it. Something I later got over. But one day on the dam construction site I was working at in the 70s, one of...

The marker lights in the fenders are subject to all the road crap from the tires.....well, at least some of it. The rears are in the trunk area and are protected better since they don't see any crap from the underside of the body and and chances for corrosion and quit working.

I have never seen a drilled out locating hole. You get the black one. Short, curved tab. No part number, just manufacturer revision code.

Polys made 230HP! Beautiful car.

I'm a Big Fan of all of them

I am looking at the TTI site and now I nee to figure out where to find the casting numbers on my manifolds.

Make sure you go with 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 even if it's a 318. 2 1/4 all the way back is good or 2 1/2 with 2 1/4 tail pipes is good too. I don't like 2" on anything.

Very nice looking car! My wife fondly remembers the sound of glasspacks from when she was a teenager so I think that is what we will be going with!
