    Getting a Roller Ready For Paint

    Just thought I would poll the collective wisdom. Are there any concerns about assembling the body to the subframe without fenders and core support to make a roller for the paint shop to have to paint body? (Body right now is on a frame cart) Body has been prepped and is in primer, just need to...

    Evil Bay Rant

    Well. I just have to do this. I am pointing the finger at myself for being too trusting. I purchased a "REMAN RV2 Compressor" off of Ebay last year at this time. I opened it up, it looked like it had been stored quite a while, so I took it to a local A/C shop to have it inspected. They...

    Washer Bottle Restoration

    I have a decent washer bottle for my 72 Imperial restoration. I am wondering if anyone has done anything to the color of the plastic to make it look like new? I think after 50 years, all of the plastic bottles have yellowed considerably. Or, do I just clean it up and go with the aged/yellowed...

    Darn remote mirrors

    I believe you all have experience in this. In almost all of my C bodies they have remote door mirrors. And almost all of them do not work very well. Such as, they move, but not far enough, or have very little range of motion. Any thoughts on fixing this or getting the mirror to stay in the...

    Vacuum Lines

    I just completed the rebuild of the suspension/brakes/steering/exhaust on a 73 Imperial. When I put the steering column back I found a vacuum line coming through the fire wall near the steering column. I seached around and it fit a fitting on the base of my steering column. (or so I think, as...

    Cruise Control Rebuild

    I have looked a little on the Forum for a source that rebuilds the cruise control servo. I have several Imperials that have non operating cruise control. Oddly, one of my Imperials has a cruise control module that appears to have been rebuilt. I hesitate to contact the guy at Zolcorp. He...

    Electroluminescent Dash

    Just wondering, I just bought a 61 Imperial. I have been reading and researching. I came across that installing a capacitor in the power supply to the dash lights brightens up the lights. Electronics is one area that I have little to no knowledge. Should I be looking into doing the same for...
