Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
I got all the stainless trim back from Polishing.....After thinking about the convertible Power top pump issues (and talking to Gary)......the pump issues are probably related to an air lock in the Pump/System......and with the lines being old and hard I decided to order a complete kit that has everything new.......that should be here on Wednesday......the Rims "Should" also be here on Wednesday......It got to be a real mess in the garage so I took the day yesterday cleaning......Now I can move around a "Little"......

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06084.jpg Seems like kind of a waste to take out all that New Nu Yawk Survivor car stuff and throw it in the garbage, But....LOL http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06086.jpg Anyhow......an hour later I had the new system in and working perfectly.........Pretty cool and Kudo's to Convertible Service for a great kit... http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06089.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06088.jpg |

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
Thanks Ken, I will check it out this afternoon [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
I hate it when I see people throw stuff away. LOL You would be amazed at how many useable parts I can come up with out of other peoples junk. Never know when you will need it. Maybe that is why my parts room has now moved into our showroom!

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
I just threw out a couple years worth of "Stuff" that I might use some day.....Got some room to move now.....LOL.....and I just checked on the wheels and they will be here tomorrow (just the fronts).....Sheesh!!

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
I bought a set of 2010 Camaro exhaust manifolds to try out on the car.....test fit them today and it seems thgey were made for the car......Now.....I have a cpp 500 series steering box which is slightly smaller than a stock box.......so......if you are doing a swap like this...adjust accordingly.......picks from both sides.....
Passenger side first.... http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06186.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06187.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06188.jpg Drivers Side.....I'm gonna remove that aluminum cover from the box....It just takes up room...... http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06189.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06192.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06193.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06194.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t/DSC06196.jpg |

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
