Ordered one Saturday, came in today. Installed in no time. Good sound nice fit. Like the USB plug in.Sarge

Yeah, I’m running better than ever after changing out the timing belt.  I had the radiator boiled out and  I’m running 15 degrees cooler.  I suppose the radiator hadn’t been touched for 25 years.  Something to think about if any of you guys car’s are running a little hot.Thanks for asking!James; run, don’t walk, to the nearest lottery ticket dea…[Read more]

 Ktro95, You can probably find all the fittings to make your top bows at a boat supply dealer. The tubing may be cheaper at a home improvement store.You will need a tubing bender like the ones electricians use to bend electrical conduit. You can rent a bender at a tool rental place or perhaps you know an electrician who will lend you his.The…[Read more]

It’s not one or two people with nothing better to do.
aarose is a professional spammer.
Frank is the only one that can delete memebrs. He does stay on top of it. But this one really needs to go NOW.

Ktro95,
Take a look in the photo gallery of this forum. I have a drawing of the top bow set for my Fiberfab made from aluminum tubing. That may help with that part. My new factory top fit the bows perfectly.

Paul; not sure that is going to work.I am on here daily(due to being up to early)reading current posts and giving my advice when I can.I have seen a few newbie posts in the last 2 months that do not make sence.I suspect it is 1 or 2 people that have nothing better to do.I did a little research about members,and came up with 71 newbies in the last…[Read more]

Thanks guys. I appreciate the comments and will share them with Lauren and Nicole.And yes James. I’m sure.

Not sure folks.Could you resize them before you post them?

Is it still possible to find a bow assembly? I have no top at all.

Is it still possible to find the bow assembly?

Paul,
You must be very proud of these two fine young ladies. They did a wonderful job. I have passed the link around the office. Are you sure she’s your daughter? She’s beautiful …. must take after her mom.
I think they should get extra bonus credit in driver’s ed. Thanks for letting us know, this is a very important message by some wonderful…[Read more]

Hey DickH,
It was my engine that locked up, but not anymore. It’s still a mystery as to why. I was under the engine, with the pan removed, it was locked up tight as can be, no way it would turn. I laid there staring at it, reached up again to turn the crank just for fun, and it turned just a freely as can be, the pistons just glided up and down,…[Read more]

 DickH,It was JasCochran’s car that had the locked up engine,Ringo’s just stopped running because of a bad timing belt. He is back on the road, but last I heard James was reworking some stuff under the dash.Look several spaces below your post in the Chevy Ford kit section to see their latest progress.

Dick  flushing is good  but I like a heaver oil 20/40 or 20/50 the miles of my Chevette engine is unknown ,just that it was new  in  1977 and I have NO IDEA . I drive the TD in the summer when it is warmer  she goes topless–we hide in the winter! I don’t like the top up and side curtains unless i get stuck driving in the rain  !! I hope you did…[Read more]

Mel,
Great find. I just recently got a radio for my baby, but not as good a deal as you got. Paid $179 and the only difference is the entire radio slips out of the mount to use in the house ( I’ll probably never use that feature) and it’s not retro . Also mine does not have the card reader, bummer. Thanks for letting know about this, appears to be…[Read more]

Most American car coil are several standard ID’s too.

Not that I am counting but:

Did it over the weekend. I’ve got this routine. First I add a can of CD2 and go
for a drive. Then, while the oil is still warm, drain it out. I replace the oil
filter and refill with Castrol 10-40. Then I add Z-Max and go for a drive, per
the instructions.

Thanks Mark – good info.
I’ve not bothered our friend Rick Drake on this one.  He’s done so much for me that I’m trying to handle it myself.  A buddy at work brought me a pair of spring isolators from a 4 cyl Mustang that visually look like they may fit.  I’ll have to pull the spring again (I had put it back together in a rush so the wife coul…[Read more]
