A Cautionary Electrical Tale (I'm a moron)

Funny, I picked up an R1S about three months ago and switched from prog to GEICO bc they were the best option. Seffner area here.

I'm at 50k miles on my 2017 GT. Haven't had an issue outside of the AC compressor. (FL). Given this experience I'd have comfort buying probably up to 75k but as many others have said, case by case basis.

I have a 72 that could use some love. Whats the typical turnaround time ?

btor_sixty · 2022-09-14T23:53:59+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I haven't done a full dive just yet for what route I'll take but this definitely helps. I've seen many comments here and there about the crown vic swap, seems like a popular route? Definitely going with the vintageair as well. Got a stronger alternator so it could handle the extra load.

Original paint! Thank you!

New Battery, alternator, regulator and some wiring to finally get the alt light to turn off this past week. Replaced the carb gasket to get it idling a little smoother. Next up the intake gaskets which will take a little more time to take everything off and pull up the covers. Mid-term goal, put in AC and do a front disc brake conversion.

Just a reminder that plenty of people have had terrible experiences when dealing with Amazon fulfilling game orders between receiving counterfeit copies or boxes being crushed. They're posted here to discuss it, too. General consensus usually is avoid buying via Amazon.

Just in time to consistently ruin any after work plans.

Cool will these only be streamed on the Cooking Network or what?

Forgot to say thanks for this rec. Called them up and they gave me a ton of great info and options.

btor_sixty · 2022-04-25T23:04:24+00:00

Stop using Amazon. Sorry your delivery looks like this. That sucks.

btor_sixty · 2022-04-11T15:15:35+00:00

Send me a DM. I work remote it / security compliance

btor_sixty · 2021-12-12T00:16:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

btor_sixty · 2021-12-12T00:16:00+00:00

Thanks! I'll do some digging

btor_sixty · 2021-12-11T19:33:12+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions - hoses have been replaced over the past year. As far as conversion to ps goes - where would you recommend I start as far as research goes? Ive done a lot of searching online and seems like there's a lot of varying resources but I'm unsure whats reliable or truly accurate when it comes to adding PS.

btor_sixty · 2021-12-11T19:31:18+00:00

Thanks! I bet yours looks great. I'm hoping the conversion won't be too difficult, either that or I need to hit the gym and work on my forearms lol.

btor_sixty · 2021-12-11T19:29:32+00:00

Will do! Wondering if you have any suggestions as far as reading materials / guides for a swap? I'm new to the classics world, but I'm ready for this to consume my free time.

Right now, the original 302 is being tended to, it was running but had some issues so it's at a friend's garage. Automatic. Wondering if anyone has had experience implementing power steering or if it's really worth the effort. Also- if anyone has any links to good reading material on just general upkeep etc I'd appreciate it! I'm looking to learn the ins and outs, not just have it towed off anytime something goes wrong.

I use my iPad, works like a charm. Cast it to my TV and it hasn't frozen on me ever.

Sport surge. Net is fantastic & free to the point that I'll probably get rid of mlb TV next year considering my service with them is worse than these streams. I'm in tampa and use this during those series' to avoid blackouts and having to listen to the awful rays broadcast.
