So mine was medium bad, with some quarter inch gaps, and cracks. So, eastwood repair kit. The epoxy is great for the big gaps and is very slow to dry, so is not friendly for multiple apps. So, after getting the main repairs done, I switched to bondo for MANY repetitions of fills and sanding...

I hate to always ask the dumb questions......My car has been disassembled quite a bit over the life of the 66 sport fury. I keep hoping to find something original....maybe the engine?? Does anyone know what type nutz were used on the die cast console lid studs. Mine had a couple of different...

Got the carpet with mass backing, makes it quite heavy and not very pliable. I am thinking that next time not the heavy stuff. And, and, and, I want to try next time to get separate padding. I tried to remove the padding anywhere I had to drill, cut or need to be thin....but I missed some...

There is a large trim piece on top of the seat back that appears to be attached to the deck panel. Anyone pull this apart and have some thoughts for me. If the seat has to lift off of brackets, it means this trim has to go first. When I was young, I would just charge ahead, often at my...

I have been chastised for silly questions, but have another. I am fighting the water intrusion from the cowl that rusted my driver side floor, and will now pull the kick panels to install carpet. I have not yet pulled the cowl, and am wondering how the huge amount of leaves get into the vent...

I usta have to travel to the tank plant in detroit, or just north....tried to get the hard heads to come up with a new main battle tank that weighed in at less than 80 tons, and get lean like the russians. But, they just kept the path. And now, I am dealing with the myriad round holes in the...

So, I have just pulled the major parts of my carpet.....in fact, two layers, and the driver side sheet metal is crap. Pass side seems pretty good so far. Have not pulled the windshield cowl, but am wondering about where the water came from on the driver side. The metal is real bad from up in...

I pulled an old one back in the day, and recall push back and it will pop up. So, I finally have one bucket out and working carpet and rust. Tried to push on the back seat....nada mas. After pulling both carpet and pad from under the front of the seat you can easily see the bracket and the...

Yes, another dumb question for the seasoned audience. I am starting the removal of the interior for one floor pan and carpet. Have just begun the console, seats still in. There are no screws in the front that should come in from the sides into the mounts. Found the two center screws from...

I have only done this once, on an MGA and the carpeting was very thick. I used the dyna mat under and had plenty of feel to the carpet. I wanted to get some thoughts from those who have used the ACC carpet. I got a couple samples in 515 and 615, one larger loop and a bit thicker. Comments...

So in prep to reinstall my dash and trim, I got several types of screws. And now, I am looking at the small trim piece under and around the gauges. Four of the primary ones are full open large holes, no back side with the taper to catch the oval screw. So, I ASSUME that there are suppsed to...

My manual has no pages on the doors, and I did not find tapping plate discussion on the forum. On other work, the tapping plates were loose and would slide in slots inside the pillar. Anyone know how these tapping plates work here....assume they will not fall loose if I remove the screws. thanks

I have seen a bar, that has soft window guides that sits on top of the doors. I cannot find info in the manual or on line. One of my door windows is good, the driver side is loose. But, I would like to find out about the bar that has the top guides......and maybe get some new ones. Anyone...

Most of the bulbs on this dash section are the bayonet inserts with either 57 or the newer T10 type, however, my two plug in sockets for R/L turn signals were MIA. So, a simple matter of finding new sockets that measure 5/8....no sweat. Except it is not easy. After several tries, I went with...

The pins on my speedo are loose. I think they can be soldered tight....anyone tried that? The gauge pack will get new ring terminals that connect to the screw terminals instead of the OEM pin connector. But, this not possible for the speedo.....all lights on the board except the two turn...

For some reason, the boys who worked on mine before, removed the "nuts" on the plastic pins on the console lid hinge. Anyone know what type fastener works best here. I am thinking like a push nut in about #10 US or about 4mm. But, would prefer to use a hex type that can be spun off, rather...

I have found something interesting recently. My throttle cable runs thru a floor plate, that was moving around a bit. Someone, for some unknown reason removed the two small bolts, that have weld nuts on the plate, and come in from the firewall.....all gonium. So, I thought I might have my...

Anyone familiar with pulling the top off the console. I need to access the wiring.....probably dont need to pull the shift knob, just rotate the top once I determine how to pry him off. Please help me minimize the damage with my hammer and chisel. Yes, I have reviewed the manual and also...

Anyone pulled out the e brake and or the fresh air kick panels. Seems that on this model there may be three bolts from the inside for the brake assy, two rear, one front, and then manhandle the cable off??? Also, I need to remove the two kick panels to clean behind and around the vents...

In my wiring frenzy I find that I have no ohm response on either the horn or the turn signals. So, I am looking at the manual for removal of the horn ring. This car has a large horn ring that wobbles but will not turn the quarter turn, since has slots on the wheel. And, I have tried to turn...
