Re: Resonator Hangers

Now that’s some Grade A ingenuity there Tony. I was just under my lincoln today looking at those and one of them seems to be in same condition as yours. During one of my recent wrecker hauls moving my car from house to shop I noticed one of my mufflers has been wrinkled up like an accordion at some ...

Re: Found TWO radiators in my car. Trans cooler bypassed?

So dropped by radiator shop today while out and got hit with some good news/bad news. Good news was they were indeed able to find the internal trans cooler to replace the faulty one and will be ready for pickup Monday. Was told the part was relatively cheap so I was happy about that. Now for the bad...

Re: Found TWO radiators in my car. Trans cooler bypassed?

The reason I’m at radiator shop is at the advise of my transmission shops suggestion. After trans was rebuilt they noticed small metal shavings in pan and advised I get unit flushed of possible contamination in lines before I set everything back in. I was not aware of the internal cooler so that’s w...

Re: Power steering

As of today I have not installed my new parts yet, rebuilt power steering pump and rebuilt gear box. Should be getting to install things in the next few weeks as I’ve gotten everything rebuilt I’ve needed. I will keep thread updated.

Re: Found TWO radiators in my car. Trans cooler bypassed?

So the larger one I took to shop is an original to the 65? And the smaller one I have at home is the AC condenser? I believe I do have ac compressor on my Lincoln which would explain why the smaller one is present. However, moving around the smaller of the two just now I have transmission fluid spil...

Found TWO radiators in my car. Trans cooler bypassed?

So I had my transmission rebuilt last week for my 65 Lincoln sedan and picked it up today. Repair shop suggested I have radiator looked over and cleaned prior to install so I headed over to my radiator shop to have it gone through. So shop owner called me today and I went by to talk with him for a b...

Re: Engine Rebuild '63 LCC 430 MEL

I have a question for you, did you also have transmission rebuilt as well? If so, did you reinstall them together as in one piece? Is that even possible? When i began the restoration I took apart EVERYTHING in engine bay I could unbolt then pulled out the block then removed the transmission. Time fo...

Re: help removing evaporator coil and casing from engine bay

Thanks for the quick reply, I’ll take a good look again on engine side again and follow edge with fingers like you suggested. Looking for my manual again as if course not sure where I stored it. I did notice like a black putty substance along the edge that was visible and kind of had that assumption...

help removing evaporator coil and casing from engine bay

Does anyone have experience removing the evaporator coil and casing from the engine bay on a 65 Lincoln? I think I have found all the existing bolts but not a 100 percent sure. Still feels snug on there and don’t want to tug on it just in case I missed something. Definitely don’t want to break anyth...

Re: Power steering

I pulled both my power steering pump and gearbox last year and sent to ADCO Power Steering Products in Houston, Tx. Was maybe a 2 week turnaround and cost me about $200 a piece to have rebuilt. Came back looking new and beautiful.
