I love that brown interior. I'm a fan of the dark green. There was a '72 RR with a gold rear strobe stripe I fell in love with. The gold would accent the brown interior nicely.

Instead of vinegar, try auto trans fluid, or even WD-40.

That would be a car I'd gladly own again (not yours specifically, but one very similar to it). Subscribed.

I bought a '59 Imperial. Here for B-bodies and the A-bodies, there are aftermarket suppliers that provide replacement body parts to make our lives easier (mostly). For the older Forward Look models, everything seemed to be hand fabbed. Following builds on those forums, everything was hand...

If you like the look of a vinyl top, but are afraid of potential rust issues, maybe think about spray-on bed liner. It is textured, so it will look like a vinyl top. Also, get something with a good UV rating. I saw that before and had to look twice to realize there was no seam along the sides.

Subscribed!

Nice work on the odd shaped lock hole.

Stash is "aged to perfection".

That white connector is disconnected at the factory when the vehicle rolls off the assembly line and gets parked. When the transporter comes to take it to a dealership, he must plug it back in to start & drive it. It keeps things like the clock from draining the battery when the car sits for...

I have an Edlebrock SP2P 4-bbl intake that was designed specifically for 273 & 318 small port engines. I have to move soon and am about to clear out stuff. If interested, I'm finally willing to part with it (it's as rare as chicken's teeth). PM if interested.

I love that '71 cloth material! Just don't see that in every 3rd car.

Yes. The round thing you're pointing to is a check valve that allows fresh air to get pumped into the exhaust (for emissions reasons) without hot exhaust back feeding and burning out the pump/diverter valve.

Out of curiosity, are there any vendors providing a "dimmer" controller for LED dash lights? That seems mighty bright for a cruise in the country.

Was that your retirement fund? I know my uncle had to sell his '68 Formula S in his older age.

When a virgin sand casting is made, there is the casting part number, then a hyphen, then a 1. My uncle told me that on V-8 engines, it's a -2 because of the 2 banks. After a couple blocks, one of the cylinders will collapse. It is rebuilt, and the number is changed to -3. After another...

And it's a -2 block, virgin casting, no core shift, strong as they get!! Score!

The tight spot is on a pumpkin he was thinking about swapping in, not the one that's been in.

Call me demented, but I like it; especially considering the budget.

Mine did not have the circle.

If that's a 318 AT car, I may have owned it at one time (of course before the awesome restoration).
