Why do you want an aftermarket? The stock exhaust seems to flow well enough to make really good horsepower...

Very true, but we love having visitors...

Also check any of the rubber boots at the intake for leaks. Major vacuum leaks and the low fuel pressure will make the idle very weak...

My biggest problem with most of these policies is they want the vehicle garaged and I really don't have a spot to keep a car inside...

Intake or exhaust?

$602 !!! Wow, that's stout!

Wow! Ok we have a project! Gonna need some parts. Might want to learn to use Google Chrome and shop Yahoo auctions in Japan to source some of the right hand drive parts

16,250, That's a good price. They used red on the suspension bolts instead of yellow... Still that seems like a good price. Has hand throttle too...

Good looking car...

I realize that body color is really the correct method but I went black because I didn't want to see bright yellow from the wheel wells around the black tires. Final body color might influence the decision. A darker color in blue or green, I probably wouldn't have bothered

I have the Kevin Tetz "Paintucation" videos and they are very good. He also has a forum and I have conversed with him directly. That's where I learned the fiberglass on pinholes technique...

@SteveJ Sorry for the thread jack, I'm done...

This is pretty basic. Not rocket science, I don't normally get involved with your posts any more because you don't take the advise given. 5' of fuel hose and one tee and 6 hose clamps. Cut it up to fit, pretty basic....

@SteveJ I hate it that you're not having a good time there... Wish I could have made it down but working 6 days a week right now...

Yes! Rubber hoses! This is a process of elimination. Try some rubber hoses and bypass the metal fuel rail. If it helps come up with a more elegant permanent solution later! Solve the problem first, then make it pretty...

When you say the numbers don't match, what do you mean? The engine number should match the data plate under the hood that has the engine number on it, not the VIN number....

Love it. Nothing like the smell of leather interior...

Fuel lines!!! Come on, how hard can it be to cobble together a set of test lines????????

I agree with siteunseen on SEM for panel colors. Paint panel works really good on panels that don't get rubbed very much. I would work on cleaning the door cards and armrest with some good cleaners. As for AC I would consider upgrading to a rotary AC compressor ...

@Hardway Not your fault at all! I put it in my ebay watch list and got distracted. "Squirrel!!!" I am working a lot right now and just forgot. It will be ok. A friend on the forum says he will take care of me...

You would think some of these states would come to their senses and realize that 40 year old cars aren't really contributing very much to pollution concerns!!!

Waited too long!

@Serban The car looks really good!

It looks really good! I am using 3M dry guide coat. I really like it...

Good for you, progress...
