Good restoration project. Would not take too much work.
Most of the new latch assemblies I have seen do not have the plastic cover. Maybe a dealer thing or as stated, a junk yard run.
I put the Nexen on both Lincolns. They are 225-70-15 WSW tires. They will do fine as those cars at most will only driven 500-1,000 a year. My only complaint as of now is they give a soft ride. They...
Mounted upside down... Interesting. Might have to try that. Due to the cold weather here, hood struts do not last long for me. I have tried a variety of brands.
I checked Car-Part.com looking for a 79 Fairmont heated rear glass. Plenty of choices so possibly a good switch would be available ?
Check to see if the Mustang switch in the same era would work.
Do you have a 3/8 swivel joint that is made for air guns ? A bit more heavy duty.
"I just hate bringing my car places because people just dgaf about your car and it will shurley come back with damage on it that it did not have going there.... "
I agree 100% . I think "dgaf" is...
Both of my LTCs have that kit. Very pleased. The battery cables were changed to very heavy duty cables. Lifetime warranty on that alternator I believe
I did a brief write up and showed pictures of...
You do excellent work. Excellent job on the seat. It looks better than many established shops will do.
What will you do with the 84 Merc engine and trans ?
Look forward to this build. Thanks for...
Using the wrong type of grease turns the plastic bushings to mush. I made that mistake before. I use synthetic grease
Try Ebay listing 373997767395 There is one available without packaging.
Jegs seems to have it too.
Looks very clean for a Maine car. Had to have been always garaged. Located in southern Maine I would suspect. Rare find and qualifies for antique plates.
Chances are slim that it will sell in...
Get some Sprayway SW958 release spray from Amazon. It is made to soften up the hardened seal. You might have to let it soak overnight.
Get a $2 orange handle pick set from Harbor Freight to help...
Beautiful wagon. It is more basic than the one I had.
Nice brake bleeder. I will have to check it out at HF.
Your Uncle crunched the trunk, blamed you and drove off ? Buy one and send him the bill. Don't expect him to pay . You will know that that guy is not a good Uncle and someone to avoid.
I think this one is for no strips. Buyer needs to verify with Ford.
There is a genuine Ford electrical and vacuum manual on Ebay now. Listing # 184910562548. Least expensive one I found.
Nice to have manual.
That is an excellent deal. I might consider getting some for my '90 CV. Please let us know about the quality when you get them .
You may have a bad dash switch.
"That sticking issue sounds like the intermediate and possibly upper steering shafts are shot. The U-joints in the lower shaft get cooked from the exhaust manifold heat and bind up, which puts more...
That is why Ford made an extended version for taxis. Should have provided this option for civilian models.
COOL, Glad you bought it.
Nice looking low mileage CVPI. Picture of the rear bumper needs to be re- taken. Good price.
If anyone finds an extra factory option port/panel for an aero, please get it for me. It will be useful.
