I dated her back in the day.:eek:
If the car is burned that bad, not rare, or popular, so not worth a lot in good shape, why waste the time and money working on it. Junk it, and...
No yellow for me. When I worked for a used car lot we had "Stay Around Brown", and "Resale Red". I don't ever remember having a yellow car on the lot.
Is the tank clean? I had a piece of teflon tape floating around in a tank once. Everyone in a while it would get sucked up against the fuel line...
Did the person you got the car from know anything about the plaque?
Be careful with the temp gauge cable and probe. If you brake it or it leaks the gauge is garbage.
I knew someone, wink wink who went to one of those title services that used to advertise in the car mags. For $450 they furnished letters from a...

I had one where it had a plastic impeller that came loose from the shaft. It was on a Y block.
How do you use a hub centric ring with a wheel spacer like the OP has?
