Re: '63 Fuel gauge not working

Oh... My... GLOB electrical formulas. That’s my bread and butter. You can’t take a 198 to 80 ohm sweep and turn it into a 118 to 0 ohm sweep without using some powered electronics. The sender is simply built wrong. You’d need to turn the reference resistance you have into the dynamic voltage range y...

Re: 1966 Front Shock Absorbers

Ahh, those trusty lower shock bolts. I think the original lower control arms had welded studs sticking out the bottom. If yours has bolts going up and loose nuts, then the originals broke free long ago. The bolt and nut combo is the fix, but backing both sides is tough through the spring and you hav...

Re: Signature rules

The best part of this forum is the fact you don't allow pictures, life stories, and flashing clip art in the signature blocks. I can't stand reading forums where you can't figure out where the car content begins or ends. The purpose of this is to emphasize the response in the post and not the signa...

Re: Permanent 64 top removal

This is easily doable IF a you think about what things need to be where when the top isn’t there. You can permanently set the appropriate switches to top up or top down and the trunk will open and close as you wish. You will want to disable or disconnect some relays or switches. The mechanism pushes...

Re: To Dan

There have been some great project threads. There was a 76 Continental where they guy literally reseller the frame (beautifully, I might add) and re-did everything. Also, one where the guy out suicide doors on his 70s sedan. There have been some utterly hilarious “oops” threads. My favorite is proba...

Re: 1966 Lincoln Continental 2 door circuit breaker location

While activating the seat switch, gently tap the transmission housing with a hammer.

The solenoid mechanism needs to be cleaned and relubricated. There are a few threads here on how to do that, but if you take it apart and take pics, you can figure it out.
