That is the coil I killed. So maybe it is limited in what it can handle but one will never know from Pertronix.

I want this car so bad and it is a double edge sword. Want it, could afford it, but far away and already deal with 11 cars, but is the top year for a New Yorker in my book.

Not in the Polara as that has the HEI from years back that I showed here. Although when I had issues with the Pertronix II maybe it was the coil. I was out taking a drive in my Cougar before it got closed up in a garage with two cars behind it waiting on engines. Everything went fine for 17...

Or, have someone who worked AC systems in the 70s to pay for school before joining a large computer company. He just dropped off a case of R12 for me at my office. Now I have two cases and four R12 systems.

I have six motors sitting on my bench for the 67 Parklane not including the four in the car. All of them use three small round gear plugs.

Genuine Autolite 2100 2100 1.08 venturi.

This addition helped smooth out the engine when leaving from a dead stop. Also the tendency for the idle rpm to bounce around. Probably a small vacuum leak. At the same time replaced all the missing vacuum lines that had been eliminated.

I just love it when they are up for sale and still strapped onto a trailer.

A "Y" plate would be 1969. My 1968 Cougar's "WTD" plate was issued late May 1968. Here is a 69 Buick.

He will place the money on top of the west tower. Come and get it.

Funny you mentioned that as I have the deed to the George Washington

The Ambassador was straight forward. Take new white plates and use blue plates I supply. It was the other two since the Mustang plates were to be transferred over to the Dodge. That part led to uncertainty when it came time to finish the Mustang she then put the plates for the Dodge under her...

How many of you get a private message now and then asking you about a car you have for sale yet you have NO car for sale. Third time this year for me. Latest is about a phantom 74 Charger I supposedly have for sale.

Wondering when someone would mention that oil. I use VR1 10W-30 in all but the Polara which gets 20W-50. The four Fords all have rebuilt engines with under 20,000 miles while the Polara is not rebuilt yet at 77,000 miles. Filters are Motorcraft except the Ambassador which is Wix. Seems no cross...
