1970 B5 Sport Fury GT...Critters folly....back to basics

[CanCritter]

Really impressed with your work, Critter. Tell me, did you power wash the under carriage before you hit it with the Rust Bullet? It looks like it was pretty clean before you did it.

4-5 hrs blastin and vehicle was in the air for easy access...200Degrees + hot water and hold on tight spray blast 1000psi....Hotsy Hotsy Model 680SS Hot Water Pressure Washer
….any grease or dirt on that car is long gone...any lose undercoating long gone along with not lose in areas...then hit it up good with rust bullet cpl weeks later and topped it off with rubberized undercoating...that babys bottom is sealed good as well as a 2k primer coating in car itself...

Only works if you've got the driveshaft out... but still would be better then rolling around on the driveway.

Hey, you can tell, it's not a six pack car.

My 71 Sport Fury has “quiet” torsion ride suspension and an 8.25. My 70 Fury III convertible had the same.

Sorry, but no 70 Plymouth Furys came from the factory with torsion quiet ride nor did ANY convertible C bodies ever come with it. 71 was the first year for Plymouths.

I totally missed this thread! Glad it got back on track, I just burned through the whole thing. That will make quite the pair. Nice work on... well, pretty much everything.

Hate to bring it up, however now that my headache has subsided, I can't help but wonder how the ultra low mile powerplant made its way into the NYer and why it was never driven after all that work? There has got to be a story there. And sorry if it was asked, I tried skimming through the drama and may have missed something but I don't think so.

 

[CanCritter]

Not sure on story but it came up from washington area and sat outside up here in the cold and snow for 20 years as best l can recollect..it had a donor card....

Cleanin up parts as l rip them off er surgical remove them srry....
Am dealing with A/C hoses and cleaned up small one and it came out nicely....however l tried to blow through it and it was blocked......large one isn't but has black crud or dirt at conection and inside pipe at lip....question is what is it?....can these hoses be flused and cleaned ? Or am l better off getting new ?
Am concerned about crud or dirt in system and screwing up compressor or blocking a part of the system ..

 

[LocuMob]

Get new, no worries about crap plugging elsewhere.

 

[MarPar]

Ya D, get new. If it's there, it's somewhere else too.

 

[CanCritter]

guessin l knew that all along...just needed someone to tell me not to be a dufuss…

 

[CanCritter]

throw them in vinager..knock the rust off...repaint and throw back on..piece of piss...

 

[CanCritter]

this oem for 70?

new insulation and gaskets required...

B5 blue...little bit of surface rust will clean up nicely

only broke one bolt....

what the heck is this and how do you test it????

Baby steps...……….

Looks like the compressor has already been killed. You can clean hoses that don't have a muffler on them, and the evaporator... maybe the condenser if it's not a parallel flow type... everything else is a disaster waiting to happen.
