I'd rather sell this to someone on here who I know would & can appreciate and use it more than I can. My 85 which so many of you on here helped with over the past 5 years I had to take off the road, not because it isn't drivable but because it was my daily driver and the abuse I was putting on...

Is anyone else having problems viewing the website and using logged in features using Microsoft Edge? I log in, check keep me logged in, for that one click it keeps me logged in. I click on anything else; new post, Inbox, Alerts, and it says I need to log in again. I haven't changed anything...

Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately, it's not a secure dry storage. I have no property and certainly no garage, but I do have a buddy who has allowed me to park & store my car on his property. I certainly will be putting a tarp underneath it, one that is slightly larger than the shadow...

Well finally after 4 years, I can move the car into storage and have it as a classic (not my daily driver). My question for my fellow M lovers is what are your best practices for keeping the car in storage? The only thing that comes to my mind is fill up the tank with premium gasoline and add...

Anxious to see what you find. :)

I know that these things dry out and wear out over time but in my 85' Fifth, I've noticed that the driver side window seal has been the one to tear and slowly shrink now to the point where the top of the window seal is at a quarter of its original length. The other window seals in the car...

What I know for my Model M is it's only the driver side window stripping that is shrinking/drying out, the other windows are fine and I'm really at a loss at what to do, I'm also thinking about getting some black putty or resin. Thoughts?

Certainly cheaper. :) Have you tried anything like this?

I love it one bulb burns out so you have to or at least should replace them all at the same time. Question is I'm looking at LED replacements and they are indeed quite expensive; $150 a "bulb" from where I look. Has anyone replaced their traditional bulbs with LEDs and if you have do you have...

Actually how is the rubber on the driver side window? I'm desperately looking for one of those too, if you're going to be pulling more parts. :)

Hey Bud, could you price me a shock absorber off the rear bumper? :)

If you do, please let me know your asking price for the absorbing shock.

This is less than 20 miles away from me... of course I do not have the passport or enhanced drivers license to cross the border. :(

Your inbox is full... :) And if you're never bad, you never know what good is.

I would have set his truck on fire and rolled it down a hill... in retaliation. :)

I don't think I need a complete bumper but I'm now curious as to what UPS would sock to ship one all this way.

Thankfully the bumper stayed completely straight, it appears that the shock is what compressed, and there is a dent on the bumper, but at this point if it will pull out with or without significant force, I am grateful.

So ended up getting rear ended and the body shop doesn't want to touch it due to "parts availability". I wanted to ask your opinion on how easy do you think it will be to fix it or if you had an idea on how to fix it? Picture Link: (too big to upload) Bumper.JPG

Have there been any new developments in the availability of weather stripping or window molding since 2014/5?

It is an 85' Fifth Avenue. I do have the service manual for it (somewhere around here). When I first go the manual, I didn't read it cover to cover but was pretty thorough with it, didn't notice anything in the electrical section, but that's why I like it here, a 2nd pair of eyes is always...

So imagine you just pull into your driveway, you turn the car off, pull the key from the ignition, open the door and get out. You close the door behind you and the interior lamps go off. Now if you open one of the rear doors, the interior lamps go on, and if you close the door, the lights go...

They just don't make cars like they use to.

My once beautiful sounding two torn horns now sound like Lurch groaning through a megaphone and I need to replace them. I had preferred NOS, but too much $$$ for my blood right now, so I am hoping one of you could recommend a decent 3rd party option that could be sourced locally from an Advance...

I'm curious, could or would a professional body shop do this kind of work, or no?
