Just sent you an email if you still need it. Here's two versions of my diagram, the original for the car and an altered one doing the ammeter bypass. Index of /car

Aside from being shiny, it looked like my old one I think, minus the orange piece. And the label, but that looks like that's only attached by the screwed holding the handle on. I was just gonna spray this one black if it fit.

I got the cap yesterday, but then some kid cut my cable line in the yard while burying another line. Despite reviews of all the vehicles folks say it fits, it would not fit mine. The smaller tabs that tighten the cap when you turn it would not match up to the notches. The actual part was...

Got the new spindles and bearings installed. Test drive went fine, needs a slight alignment though but that was needed before all this. Gas cap says its out for delivery today already, so that's good news. And yes, I drove without the gas cap cause frankly I totally forgot it was missing. In...

June 8, tickets are $40. Last year they had ferraris but this year's theme is Chrysler, celebrating 100th anniversary. https://ohioconcours.com/

I'm just a bit outside of cincinatti near dayton. If that isn't too far for you, Ludlow auto has worked on several cars for me. They did the sniper efi on the duster as well.

Don't think anyone mentioned it yet, but if you put in buckets when you had only the bench before, you'll probably want to reinforce the floor where the seats bolt down towards the center by the trans tunnel. The outer holes were already reinforced. There are subtle dimples where the other holes...

My dad worked on cars. And sorta worked on boats, and by sorta I mean he took the boat engine apart to build a bigger one and never finished it. So you'd think he would've shown me a few things growing up, but nope. Technically, didn't even teach me to drive a stick, I had to figure that out on...

I should have the spindles tomorrow, I've got the hubs and everything else today. I also had to order a gas cap (totally unrelated). I have a bad habit of setting the cap on top of the pump then driving away. This last time I didn't even noticed until this incindent happened and considering I...

Ummmmmmmmm yes that's what I did. The bearings seemed fine and I repacked them with fresh grease. It's what we did in the army, we didn't replace the bearings every time the hubs were removed.

Anyone else seen the trailer for this yet?

Most of what I find say its for cars with 10" drums. Can anyone tell me if the spindles and wheel bearings were the same on cars that came with discs? I think they are but want to be sure.

There's a 440 in it, the whole car vibrates lol. I could try to find the missing parts, but it's unlikely. It's a busy 50mph 5-lane road, I can't quite just walk down the middle looking for a nut or people will think I'm the nut.

Looks like it, cause I can't find just 1 for sale. Like I said, I had just done the front-end last summer, so unless I really screwed something up putting the new rotors on (but i dont see how) I haven't a clue what else could've caused this.

I've had the car for about 10 years. I did the front suspension last summer (shocks, ball joints, tierods) but didn't replace the bearings, they seemed fine then. So on the damaged side (driver), the inside of the rotor is marred so I'll be replacing that again. Since I just replaced them with...
