  1. Less than 3 hours from me ... if my workplace wasn't closing the doors in July I'd be on my way this weekend! I assume the white car does have a title? Depending how things work out over the next few months, I may be back in touch.
  2. Seems the writeup is still there, but my links are broken. Link address does appear to still work if you copy/paste it into the browser. Maybe I'll find some time to fix that Poly Bushing Install
  3. Those axles definitely don't look original. Even if there wasn't a sticker, they are way too clean. As for greasing the bushings I know there were specific ones that got grease on one side and not the other. Wonder if my old write up still exists ...
  4. I just reached up underneath and unplugged it. Then the nut came right off. I may have had the radio bezel out though, it's been years. Replaced mine with an aftermarket socket because I had 12V plugs that didn't work well with it. Putting in a USB plug is a GREAT idea! Why didn't I think of that ...
  5. I think it all has to do with some Brandon guy.
  6. Have you tried to bleed the steering box? I know mine acted very odd when there was air in the lines. Easy turn, then difficult and it would be a little jumpy as I assume assist was coming on and off. Can't see the coupler doing that. Does it do it with the engine off and wheels off the ground?
  7. Should be some links in the MPI forum. When I originally set mine up fuel only on TBI it was relatively quick and easy. Hit me up if you need help. I'm sure I have a slew of tunes from TBI cars over the years
  8. Usually vacuum issues from what I have seen. Mine had a cable with most of the sheath gone, but still worked.
  9. Might be worth taking measurements and just hit up McMaster-Carr for some flanged rubber plugs.
  10. Looking now it's more like 3 hours north of you in Decatur TN. Still not too far off. You are down near Jimmy then.
  11. I would be interested to see what others have done too. My antenna is still there, but just to plug the hole. In my current paint/resto phase I debated using bumper repair to fill the hole and smooth it over.
  12. That picture had me all kinds of screwed up. Then I realized it's a right hand drive I don't have parts to help out though. Not even sure the US spec cars had these? I will be looking when I get home Bump for good luck!
  13. Using the 6AL allows logic level MS outputs to control spark instead of using high current drivers or an ignitor ... etc. Mix, I'm not super familiar with the micro, but I've done a bunch of different setups with MS. Hit me up if you need some advice. I'm not 100% sure what you are trying to do.
  14. Welcome Aboard! You say you aren't very mechanically inclined? You are going to have a good time with this car then One way to learn though. Dive in and we will be here to help get it back together.
  15. I spent a lot of time in junkyards searching for a part that might not be there. Even if I didn't find what I want I always enjoyed just wandering and checking out everything. Lucky enough to still have 3 decent yards within an hour of my hometown. Rarely anything cool in there though. That stuff get sold whole.
  16. Best of Luck! And thanks for being the guinea pig with that ajusa gasket. Looks like I'll stick to the "MLS" gasket or a Fel-Pro in the future. I completely understand the "no idea how many times I've pulled a head" Pretty sure I could do it blindfolded
  17. In my experience getting them off isn't hard. Getting that hard line back on the steering box though is a serious pain. That's why I went with all flexible lines now. Which brought on it's own set of issues ... but I digress
  18. Same thing I was thinking. Make sure the distributor ignition timing AND cam timing are still correct. It's easy to mess up the timing when replacing the timing chain. Does it spit and pop randomly when cranking?
  19. Good Deal. I was just thinking about this over the weekend. As the car gets closer to laying paint I'm going to need a few things
  20. Congrats Tux! You are far more patient than I. When mine wouldn't come out the BFH had a different idea. Luckily a member hooked me up with new bolts back then. (Thanks Jimmy!)
