Eric, do they make the fuel line to the carburetor yet? I think I’ll get one of those oil lines!

I got the new tube from Inline Tube. It is a VERY close to perfect match. I test fit it on my extra engine and it will require a very minor tweak at the water outlet at the front of the intake. Nothing worth bringing to their attention.

I really like these because duplicating the really tight bend at the very end of the line (turbo side) is…[Read more]

Egge has everything. I used them for 2 rebuild kits and they were good quality

For engine parts, I always feel you get what you pay for. I would not look for the best price. I would look for a quality set first and then look at price. Valves for these cars are readily available and most places will have them. Most machine shops will be able to get them and recommend the best ones for your use and application.

I did not find any documents under the seat of this car. I do have the Protecto Plates.

What stats on the show board?

did you find a build sheet stuck under in the springs of the back seat? Hand written and looks like Dead Sea Scrolls… Awesome find.. but now I need to change my stats on my showboard, lol

I purchased my carpet kit from SMS Auto Fabrics in Oregon. We haven’t yet fitted it into the car, but I have been pleased with their product in the past.

I installed the carpet, back door panels and seats today. I am almost done with the interior. I took it for another drive. I went around the block (4 miles) and all went well. I stopped and checked the temp and it was only 170. I do not have a thermostat in it for now. I decided to go around the block again but it died on me after 1 mile. I called…[Read more]

Great work Eric!

I have brakes now! Took it for its first drive. I went a little over a mile round trip. The video turned out sideways..

Working on the brakes now and going really well. I can reuse all the brake lines (other than the rubber ones) and all the wheel cylinders and master are rebuildable. I believe I will be able to take this car for a drive by the end of the day Saturday!

62 top of hood trim and exhaust manifolds are sold.
Thanks

I opted not to go with the TH200 as per Marks recommendation and history of reliability when it comes to the TH200. The 700R4 (1990 or older) worked great and again the amount of firewall fab work was minimal. Ill forward photos when I get the car back from the stereo shop. If your wavering to the TH200, I would recommend to speak with Mark at D&D…[Read more]

Here is another video. I have it running really good now. I had changed oil in it before I started it up to begin with but after running it tonight for an hour I changed it again. Had an oil leak at the oil pump that I fixed also.

This video is not public so it is only by link. I will not likely post any more videos public till a later time. A…[Read more]

TH200 is a lot smaller than the 700R4.

Reading his post is making me rethink….Go with th200c

I may be wrong but think Plot talks about cutting out the firewall and tunnel with subsequent fab and welding in his post above. Any pics on Skylark site?
