not understanding that razor part

reminds me of this thing. i think i heard it ran once at the Milwaukee Mile in 1987 but i could be wrong. something to do with regulations allowing a Hemi. i think it was in ARCA. i believe the second pic is it after being turned into a Mirada.

$600 would even be expensive for a whole header panel, let alone a grille. gee wizz.

what number are the ones for 80-89 M's? got a pair of C-6's and i concur, the rear door ones do not fit. if anyone wants the rear door vents for their Aspen, you can have em looks like in theory they should fit but the opera window is in the way. i've seen pictures of police cars with the whole...

it's all been sorted out now. thanks for all the advice

i have this. didn't really save all of the wiring, and i'd have to track down where i put the lights. minor crack too. these are normally covered in headliner material, this one had it all stripped

you're pulling the motor and stuff? it runs for now just not good?

do 88-89 cars have Thermoquads or just normal Quadrajets?

does the Fifth Avenue have a tape deck? can use a cassette adaptor. these come in either aux (plug into your phone like headphones) or bluetooth options. you can also can bluetooth adaptors that plug into the cig lighter though i've noticed the audio quality sometimes suffers and i've even had...

greetings fellow Marylander. nice car

my brakes were always kind of squishy when in drive, but super stiff when the car was off. only heard a hisss sometimes though this might have been only when pressing the brake in park or when the car is off. i think that's normal. always kept a long follow distance from any car as the old girl...

yep it revs up around there when sprayed with some berryman. also around the pull off valve too. it was the $70 Chinese BBD so you're right. i wouldn't be surprised if it just fell apart, but heck it lasted 4 years so that's kind of a win? well the 6280 lasted 25..... i'll track down a real BBD...

appreciate all the tips. its not that i don't believe y'all, just want multiple opinions before i try anything. a mechanic is trying to tell me its a leak from the throttle shaft and i don't believe him.... :rolleyes: hell it's probably both...

what i'm not understanding is, with all the issues i have, they always appear out of the blue after the car ran perfect the day before. perhaps my carb has a loose screw that's slowly moving and "screwing" things up? its a cheap Chinese BBD clone so it'd make sense. i have gotten it back from...

This happened to me last Saturday. took the car out to the weekly cars and coffee and noticed an issue. first the car stalled when turning onto I-95, ok no biggie. then i noticed the gas mileage got terrible. upon hitting surface streets, i noticed that when sitting at a red light and depressing...
