  1. Bought a new set of rims for the Coronet, they need a good polishing and the tires are getting swapped with the BFG's already on the car. I'll likely sell the stock magnum 500's for a little profit and put that money somewhere else in the car...

  4. Got all three of them cleaned up...
  5. Finally figured out the high idle problem, but not until it was already loaded on the trailer for the new place.
  6. Picked up the keys to the new shop. Plans are to build a 2.5 car garage in front of the existing 1.5 car garage in the next 5 years. I wanted a 2 car already built, but the view and price were just to good to pass up...
  7. Seeing as his Sig says 2wd, I'm gonna go with one...
  8. I put a new Quick Fuel 750 Sniper carb on the Coronet this week, but slowly gathering parts to plumb it up. Went from a single feed Carter to this dual feed, so I need a new fuel set up. Tried a few pre-made set ups but something on each set up didn't work. So, I'm just building my own. Waiting for a tee to come in and I can finish it up...
  9. Love my 91, won't blow the doors off anything, but it's dependable as hell...
  10. I had my 7 month old escape towed to the Ford dealer and they bought it back... Now I'm just trying to decide which 2016 F150 I want. I know it's going to be a RCSB 4x4 with a 5.0, just need to decide which colour. I tried my hardest to get them to sell me a 2016 Silverado RCSB, but Ford wouldn't do it, lol...
  11. I found it... Bought my new home today. The garage is a little smaller then I was looking for, but the price and property was hard to pass up. Plenty of room to expand the garage... It is an oversized 1.5 car garage and plenty big enough for the Coronet...
  12. While I was cleaning the truck I painted the grille of the Coronet silver. I just wasn't digging the black, hoping to get it on this afternoon before Easter dinner... The Coronet goes in for new heads tomorrow and hopefully by the end of the week I can start mocking up for the new gauges...
  13. Lots... Put on a used grille that has all it's proper tabs... Cleaned the interior, going to shampoo the carpets when the temps stay high everyday... Also removed the bed liner that's been there since the truck was new... And I was not surprised with what I saw, not a spot of rust or a single dent. Proof that a drop-in, when installed and maintained properly, with out protect and out perform a spray-in liner... Needless to say, the drop-in is going back in...
  14. Swapped in a used grille that has all it's tab's. so now everything is mounted properly and I no longer have to remove the whole grille to change bulbs...
  15. I looked for it again today. House hunting... Sorry in my case it's more Garage shopping lol...
  16. Diesels had that bumper...
  17. Got the lights done, halo's aren't hooked up yet (still trying to decide if I want them hooked up)... It's much brighter now... Painting the grille back to silver next and the heads are going on after easter... And yes that's a multi cleaner bottle as my coolest over flow, it's on the list of to do's...
  18. Started putting the new headlights in the Coronet today. Got the old wiring out and cleaned up, then cut the headlight buckets to fit the new halogen lights. Tomorrow it all gets installed, just need the paint to dry tonight... These are going in. They have a white halo, which I'm thinking of not using. If I do it'll be as the running lights... Just looking forward to being able to see at night. The new harness has relays in it which will greatly increase my light output for night driving... Also going to start mocking out the gauge locations and order some aluminum for the dash and doors...
  19. Started it, also picked up the new heads and the gauges showed up in the mail...
  20. It has a 4" spindle lift which pushes the front track width out about 2"...
  21. Put the summer rims on tonight. But I've gotta do some trimming on the front bumper...
  22. If it's not a hole they won't fix it. But they'll let you drive a 2 year old white car around with rust showing, because that's what you want on your new $35k car... But, as of the end of 2014 I stopped caring...
  23. Hers was a 2011 with rusted doglegs and truck panel...
