Hi. I could use some help as I'm a big-time novice. Up until last week all my accessory lights (trunk light, dome light, ignition light, glove box light and light under dash on passenger side) in my 69 Sport Satellite were working. In one fail swoop they're all not functioning. Anyone know a...
One day. It's my mother-in laws house. She's kind enough to allow me to store my baby there.....heated garage. My pad only has a two car garage and she's les than 2 miles from me.
Spring has sprung in the greater D.C. metro area and I'm going nuts without the Satellite. I was just informed last evening it won't be ready on Sunday. I'm making arrangements to retrieve her during the week next week, weather permitting. In the mean time I thought I'd share a picture of my...
Thanks for the compliments. I'm hoping the gremlins were just found. Seems pick-up will be delayed by one week. Minor seepage around the exhaust manifold studs was noticed during break-in and a transmission line had a pin-hole leak. I'd rather wait an additional week for parts and shake-downs to...
Thanks for the comments on my wheel choice. I was going to go another direction but love the fact that they look like a period correct modification. The motor is in and the break-in should be done by now. I'm hopeful the shakedown run(s) will be complete so that with weather permitting I'll be...
Thanks. Due to the fact that I was only able to drive it around our neighborhood once or twice before sending it to the shop, I'm crawling the walls in anticipation!
The progress continues. I drove to the shop in Harper's Ferry and snapped a few more pics. The motor will be in by this weekend and we did a test fit of the new wheels.
She's still in progress. I had the calipers and master cylinder rebuilt. The engine is being painted this week and the exhaust manifolds are done. I hope to have the motor back in by the end of next week.
Thanks again for the great welcome and positive comments. I thought I'd provide an update. I should preface this with the following: my grandfather, father and oldest brother were/are blessed with the mechanical genes in the family. My grandfather and father have long passed but my oldest...
I really couldn't be happier. I came close to pulling the trigger on a few other Satellites but really wanted to come as close to a "barn find" as I could. The seller lost his father back in 2002. His father got the car for his mom. She wanted a blue Satellite. When they got to the lot there was...
