I've been waiting on a part from MarkII since April. Numerous contact and nothing. I was soon to write on here if they'd gone out of business, then i saw this.

That looks like a BCFABS kit. I have the same kit on my 67 and it looks like the one you have is a barn install, my bags are totally square and it looks like the bag you have collapses at an even greater angle than shown when aired-out, judging by the dust marks in the bag, whereas it’s designed to ...

Barry finds the schematic for the original system and works from there. Again, shown in the YouTube video of my unit refurb/upgrade.

Hey Guys,

I have the 'BELT' light illuminated on my 67 convertible. I haven't started pulling it apart yet, but a quick play with the seat belt doesn't seem to solve it. Any common issues I should be aware off before I start going crazy?

Thanks

I got Barry to do the conversion on mine. I wanted to keep the dash original with original speaker placements so it meant mono only. It was the original AM only unit but he added FM, Bluetooth, a USB for charging only and inputs for a sub for that mono sub sound! Here’s a link to his work on my exac...

Hi from Abu Dhabi, UAE

Yes please Dan

Hi Dan,

2 sets of $20 sent for the 1967.

Thanks for maintaining this resource.

Ok. So it looks like I have a rigid band, which are only available as relined parts which seem very difficult to get hold of. I've got the flex band part from Bakers. Question is, should I send the rigid band off for relining? And if so, anyone know a good guy to do this? Or can the flex band be ins...

It was sent from Bakers as an original part so let's hope it's genuine.

Dan,

Thanks for the instant reply. The rebuild Guys over here in Dubai are getting a little stressed as it isn't the same. I'll tell them to fit the one I've supplied.

Hi Guys, I'm getting really stuck trying to find a transmission band for my car my 67 continental. I've attached a picture of the original and what I've been sent from Bakers and from rock auto. You can see he original is much beefier and has a different latch/mount on the top. I can't find one simi...

I'm bumping this back to the top to see what you guys managed to get working. I've had Gordon Marks of Marks air in FL have a look at my 67 LCC which strict instructions that the original dash controls must operate the new system. First he suggested fitting a Gen IV unit in the trunk, but obviously ...

So stage 1 complete. It's down in Florida getting some TLC and probably a load of $ spent on it. I'm torn over a respray. I've been advised with all that chrome a resspray is a massive job. How salvageable is the paint? Can it be cut back or it is too thin? Regarding Abu Dhabi (and the greater UAE) ...

Ok guys, a big thanks for all the help. It's been inspected, purchased and after a new top is put on its on its way to Tim at Lincoln Ranch for some work, then heading to the desert. As soon as I have some post work pictures I'll send them over. This forum has been invaluable, thanks so much for the...
