Have done a lot of work to the Polara since I picked it up a couple of months ago.... put a set of new tires on it... Uniroyal Tiger Paws.... changed out the Voltage regulator for a more modern version. Had some wiring issues to work through on the wiring harness. Put on a real PCV valve set...
yes the rubber mount is in there after I got to where I could see it.... the gear vendors OD is adding length also...... we did get it up off the metal part of the crossover. The tunnel has been modified to fit all of this....... I hope we solved this part of the puzzle anyway..... thanks all...
I have an a833 transmission... I noticed that the rear of the tranny is resting on the crossmember that supports it. Should there be a rubber bushing or something that cradles the tail end of the tranny? Mine is laying right on the crossmember which I think will lead to the transfer of...
ok Bee Bodies.... got the flicker out of the lights.... did everything that you said and found most of the problem in the headlight switch and redid all the grounds and put on a new high tech electronical voltage regulator that helped a lot. Tried to isolate each of the areas that could be a...
So I'm working through the oddities of my new to me Polara. I went out at night to drive the car and found the headlights to be dim and flickering..... I changed out the old mechanical voltage regulator with a new modern electronic one.... still flickering... I read somewhere there is...
Got projects going on in the engine bay and the trunk..... bringing some civilization to the beast..... Dynamat in the trunk of course I did not order enough..... FedEx and UPS trucks fighting to get up the driveway..... :thumbsup:
If I were a betting man I am thinking they did not put the screw heads in...... it's a 64 car..... I will have to go on a look and see mission.... the ends do go into the mirror and I ordered new plastic ends from YearOne.... when they get here I will get with it.... thank you for the info....
I bought the car with the sun visors in a box. I stripped the mechanicals and got a new set of sun visors here with the plastic ends coming. The headliner is already installed and I have no idea how to put the sun visors back on. Any help would be appreciated along with a pic or two.... I...
Haha...... ok maybe I can't get in my size 33 levis anymore.....ok but I can get into 36" still... if they are the stretchy kind... thanks for the heads up.... it was real funny when I was climbing in and out of the backseat to clean the upholstery the other day..... :thumbsup:
When I was in High School my 64 Polara 500 seemed to have all the room in the world inside of it. I'm 6' 2" and was that tall in high school. Now I have my new to me Polara with the bench seat in front and it seems I'm jammed up against the steering wheel. The seat is all the way back. I had...
sent Caltrac pictures and awaiting reply..... they say the rear shackle is aftermarket and must be to lift the car up off the huge rear tires.... told me that on the phone when I was describing the set up to him. The springs are steel and not composite. They do come in two pieces and overlap...
thanks for the help.... I am calling Caltrac today.... on the first picture where the 2 springs overlap each other under the axel... do those move front to back if you loosen the bolts up? so by changing the axel length by moving the rear shackles forward and slipping the back spring under the...
The more I drive it the more I'm getting used to the pedal feel.... the car has great brakes and I don't mind not having any boost assist.... started including a leg day in my weekly workouts.... :)
Just got the car and that whole set up is a mystery to me.... I downloaded the instructions but I think there was a lot of geometry involved so I started to zone out a bit....... might have been the Whiskey..... I have a lot to learn about dis car.....
505 CI.... 833 4 Sp Dana 60 4:10 Gear...
ok that's some good info there ya...... I wondered if those were the culprits...... I shall take them off and see what that does... I'm also going to put Dynamat in the trunk and a replica of the OEM plaid floor cover...... thanks again for the help......
