How did you do your headlight wires? I'm trying to wire-up my lights but no one ever takes a picture of that area.
They probably don't even know what the Internet is... I have broadband cellular, and my laptop has a camera built-in, so using that idea, maybe...
I like it a lot better in color. Too bad the firewall forward is a different yellow than the rest of the car :eek: Looks like my 56 truck which...
I'd think up a new nickname for the guy, and every time he comes over it will remind him what a shitbird he is. Most of my disasters have been...
Close this thread. Obviously the guy has way too much money. I think God has two gifts: 1) Money, 2) Sense, and you can't have both.
Maybe they have caller ID.
It's not something that anyone who hangs out here would want to own, but it does have an ounce of "fun" in it. The designer obviously gave-up...
I always got my best work done when dad was asleep.
We don't have that problem where I live. If you park your car on the street it gets an orange tag, and is towed away in 48 hours.
All you have to do is check the scrap metal prices. Ingot prices are even higher, as they are pure in type. If they say they can't make...
From what I've read so far, I would call someone to help. I don't think you have enough skills to be working on cars, or electrical systems....
Chrysler 383 and up go counterclockwise on distributor. OK, so the engineer screwed up, but he only had a week to get the plug to the casting...
When all else fails, cut the connectors off the coil +/- wires and re-do. Of all the common problems I've had over the years, it's been these two...
Motorcycles have no place at a car show. Cars have no place at a motorcycle show. I don't see why you listed that as bad. If I want to go see...
Can't argue with facts, ha. I've only driven the car once, so I was going by how it felt. Could it be the ratio difference between 1st and 2nd on...
In the photo, the red wire is normally just folded over and attached to the Bat terminal of the alternator. Rather than a diode on the yellow...
I think the 200 is a little too wild in first gear. The 700R4 is a nicer shift from 1st to second. Just my opinion.
I don't think anyone uses a chopper-gun on car bodies anymore. Since the old Mr. Ed trailers and the Dune buggy and VW kit car days, it's...
There's probably a #10 wire going from the starter to the Bat terminal of the Voltage Regulator. Without that, you won't have lights or ignition.
2 years?? Unless you have a cat, the wires have probably been feeding mice :p Pretty simple, just use a continuity checker, and make your way...
I used a tube of assembly lube from Oreillys (forget the brand), and gooped-up everything during assembly. It all disappeared after a few minutes.
I just used some Joe Gibbs (BR) oil on a dodge. It is designed with lots of zinc for flat tappet cams. When the engine gets hot the oil pressure...
Holy Shit! He's probably bragging that he wired a car by himself one time :p
I'm wondering if maybe you have too much junk on your car. You might not need a voice warning system unless you are 8000 feet in the weather with...
Looks like 1/8 mile to me, with a shutdown in the trees...
Q: How do you become a millionaire in drag racing? A: Start with a Billion. OK, sorry, old joke... ;)
Fram on the left, Wix on the right: [IMG] I use this one on my Hot Heads remote filter adaptor: WIX Oil Filter 51515 19 micron
Paper-weight off the hood, french the headlights with chrome inside rings, lose the chrome outside rings on headlights. Smaller 1" white walls.
That purse might do it! I bet she has pliers and everything in there...
It doesn't take long to just pull the starter. Then operate it on the bench with a battery. Sometimes a person will spend a week playing...
