Re: Adjustable (tilt) steering column 1965

It was good video. As I recall, I identified all this when I was replacing the fuel hoses from the pump to the tank. The vacuum hoses to the small tank were replaced by me about 3-4 years ago.

Re: Project Rita Hayworth - 1965 Lincoln Continental Convert

That is the coolest red convertible on the planet. That list is accurate. Though needs an addition or two if I think about it. I replaced the bronze coolant junction block and all the coolant hoses about 4 years ago because there was a leak in the old rusted junction block. Here is my other red conv...

Re: 1962 lincoln convertable hydraulic pump stops intermitte

My FYI story in case you find it helpful in your Lincoln restoration journey: I marked the position of all the relays, then removed them. I found burn/arc marks on two and replaced them with ones I bought from John Brewers eBay store. I also found a metal bus bar that connects power in between the u...

Re: 1962 lincoln convertable hydraulic pump stops intermitte

I replaced a few relays on mine with the telephone consult help of John Brewer (eBay store: Brewer Classic Lincoln?). This sounds like an intermittent relay problem vs an intermittent short to ground or bad connection.

Re: 1963 LCC Dash Restoration

Let us know how it fits when you reinstall. The photo looks good. I have seen the Just Dashes youtube video and wondered how easy they are to reinstall because material gets added prior to the vacuum seal process. I have one small crack in my dash that I used some vinyl glue on to stop further deter...

Re: Project Smuggler's Blues - Triple Blue 1964 Convertible

Action, you are a Shelton, Washington insider. haha. I used to track my Ducati at The Ridge racetrack in Shelton. Very nice racetrack. Jason, let me know about that JL bluetooth device. I considered that option with an amp also but eventually went with the Aurora conversion. Of course I may never kn...

Re: Project Smuggler's Blues - Triple Blue 1964 Convertible

I installed these in my Lincoln. I have an am/fm 64-65 Lincoln radio I had Radio Guy Bill in Shelton, WA do an aurora conversion on. It connects to my phone via bluetooth in addition to picking up radio signals which my stock unit was quite weak on station more than 10 miles away. . I bench tested t...

Re: Hello!

Great year. Welcome to the forum. The radio and clock are common problems. Use the search function in the upper right corner and you will find a lot of threads on what to do. From radio aurora conversions that support bluetooth to custom kick panels for speakers. The clocks can be repaired or quartz...

Are you planning to use the mold and make these for sale to owners of the 64-65s? Nice custom work.
