I am dreading re-wiring my car. under the dash is going to be hell.

Well, I have just purchased new temperature sensors, and alas they still aren't working. The guage rests at hot and goes all of the way to cold...
[IMG]my moordoor with a 4" PS drop [IMG] with no fender-skirts or hubcaps.
anybody think this would be the same hinge for a 51 lincoln? also a front passenger bottom hinge.
this stuff is fascinating to me, no stories so far, but I am the type of person that thinks that all OLD cars have a unique personality and can...
ordered one!
Great stories guys, keep it up.
that is a cool 337 flathead though.

I was wondering what some of you guys with your Old DD cars did for insurance. for the time being I am covered with geico, but I know that the...

try a bump key, if you can get your hands on some old gm keys (don't have to be blanks). I have never tried it, but it seems to work on the...
well, i popped it off and drained the globs of old fluid out, and then changed it , ran everything, and changed it again, should be good for now....
so, on my 51 lincoln with hydraulic power windows, it seems to be a little low on hydraulic fluid. I can get all four windows to roll up, but the...

BTW, I thought lots of pics, but photobucket crapped out on me.
well, this weekend I flew out to San Francisco, CA to finally pick up the lincoln I have been wanting for so long. Luckily my brother lives in the...
I am flying out tomorrow to do this same thing. 51 lincoln in SF, and I am in PHX. It'll be a hell of an adventure. DO IT!
that is way cool, nice save!
thanks Rich, it appears to be a real solid mostly original car. the same guy has owned it for 30 years. I can't wait until this weekend when I...
still ford stuff, the only thing that makes me nervous about this car is the lack of availability of the water pumps for the 337. Does anyone know...
I'll look into a desert bag, as for the tools, i am going to be stopping at harbor freight and loading up. thanks for the great advice.
