  1. Sounds like you have a good plan. Just FYI, I used a gas tank kit from KBS coatings many years ago and it has been great! There are lots of solutions there though. Image links aren't working for me
  2. Congrats and Welcome aboard! πŸ₯³ Let's see some interior pics. I agree that year digital dash and all the sounds it makes are pretty cool! We are here to help you on this journey! P.S. Also an Electrical Engineer here with a title of Controls Engineer. Lots of PLC and Robotic coding for me, among MANY other tasks
  3. If it's just once after sitting like that, I might never have noticed. I feel your pain about going into a fresh build though. After one of my rebuilds it would let a puff of smoke when I spiked the go pedal or let off abruptly. Then after it drove for a bit the symptoms seemed to go away. Upon investigating I found that I did not have one of the valve stem seals properly seated and it made contact. The damage was not obvious without really looking. I only found it when advice from others (may have been Shelby) said to just change the seals. Low and behold, operator error on my end. Definitely interested to see what you find out.
  4. He is talking about the paper sticker that shows all the vehicle specs, options, MPG ... etc. Good to know you have a vinyl printer though. Never know what I may want printed πŸ˜‰
  5. I did that the first time thinking, it can't be that heavy, I have room. Then I was stuck with a trans on my chest and no room to slide myself out with the trans. I did NOT have room and it was heavy enough to be difficult. Lessons were learned πŸ™‚Floor jack is 100% the way to go. Even easier if you have a low profile jack.
  6. Just do it. Then report back πŸ˜ƒ
  7. Nope. Time to pull it apart and replace some parts
  8. Pretty sure I have good front inserts and a set of rear struts I'd be willing to part with if you're interested. I believe the fronts are KYB and the rear are Mookeeh
  9. "This listing was ended by the seller on Mon, May 26 at 12:52 PM because the item is no longer available." Well, that's interesting
  10. If I was closer I'd come fill the truck! Edit: I didn't know you sold the car, quitter! 😁
  11. Let's hope they show off at least one SQ!
  12. Impressive work Kev! I played hell trying to get mine straight and get the passenger headlight to open/close smoothly and line up close. I can't believe you were able to pull that rail and get it so close without cutting and welding it up. Factory fenders were not made equal. Putting new to me fenders on mine did not line up well at all compared to the beat up stock fenders, which I later found out had been cut and rewelded to fit the terrible frame repair done way before me. I got rid of the hard lines for the oil cooler years ago and went with -an fittings. No regrets.
  13. Will it free rev in neutral past 3500?
  14. I wouldn't put a lot of faith in the stock temp gauge. They have been known to be inconsistant over the years. Grounds are likely a good place to start though. If you haven't already found them starquestgarage.com has all the wiring diagrams and the manual shows all ground points. Cluster and engine grounds would be my first go to, then start to clean body grounds. Any weird misfire or hesitations? When it high idles while warm, are you running the AC? That can kick things up a bit.
  15. Sounds like your coil may be getting weak.
