I've actually been very casually browsing for a 63 or 64 Fairlane, as in I keep my eye on the ads but had no intent to purchase one yet. Would...

Ha, how about that, another member is the one that pulled this car. We'll pass on this one. We're not dead set on Corvairs. It's more so that...
My 16 year old daughter is interested in this Corvair, not as a daily, she has one of those. I initially thought it had some potential because the...
I got it running, it was a matter of the throttle not being in the correct position. I screwed around with the fast idle cam and its screw and got...
I switched out my stock 2bbl teapot for a stock 4bbl teapot(Holley 2140). It's a very straightforward swap since Lincoln did the same thing in...
Yeah it's always the drivers side on the Y blocks. Next time I want to find a manifold it will probably be even harder so I'd like to not crack...
Lincoln 317 Y block. Has the crossover pipe that goes across the front of the motor connecting the two exhaust manifolds. Common for the drivers...
Finally found a fuel pump for my 317 Lincoln Y Block. It was difficult to find one due to the pump arm shape being different from any of the...
Bill was very easy to work with as I tried to figure out how to get my family and vehicles moved to another state. He was door to door for me from...
I have no idea why they're called pole barns. But in my house hunting around here, pole barn seemed to mean newer construction barn. And yes,...

The factory shop manual for my Lincoln says... Tighten while rotating the drum back and forth until there is a noticeable drag or bind. Then back...
Great looking car, does it show anywhere what they traded in for $700?
I usually don't sell anything until I'm sicking of looking at it, so I go pretty cheap.
I got stock coil springs for my 52 Lincoln from Eaton, way cheaper then anything else I could find.
Wow, pretty knowledgeable for a counter guy.
Go to the book section of amazon, try 2 searches. Ford 260 and Ford small block, check out the rebuild books. I got this mopar one...

Hey what are all those other cars in the driveway in the background?
Did Ford number identical parts differently if they were for a Ford, Lincoln, or Mercury? For logistics purposes I would think if the same part...
I got seat covers for my Lincoln from http://www.automotiveinteriors.com/ They have a few generic patterns to choose from in a style for the era....
Sounds like you don't have much interest in either car. Maybe sell them both for something you want. That being said, the Buick looks awesome....
I used to like Advance, you could browse them online. Get name brand parts and not bother with the guys at the counter. Online you could also have...
Great find, I'm assuming you've washed it by now. Any pics of it clean? Any evidence of rodents in the interior?
Mine's a post prohibition car but the guy I bought it from told me his uncle ran a lot of shine in it. Not sure how true that is but I recently...
