    want A/C in your II??????

    Okay, I am stuck in Kodiak, AK and my heater core is shot. My AC works perfect, but as 65-70 is "hot" here, I have decided that my ac is on its way out. It is still R-12. Does anyone want to make an offer on the system? Consider shipping -- it will be expensive, to say the least. I just hate to...

    Headers known to Fit and Hit

    yes, I am cheap. I have the funny headmans, unmodified -- 90 degree down tube and all. But when I was doing my rebuild, I spent more on the internals than headers, and can always swap 'em later. And the headmans -- 150.00 delivered via summit, and about 1 hour to install (nothing was there...

    heater core with ac and speedo questions

    So as I am on my way to Bellingham to catch the ferry, my car turns into a steam mobile. Not a great amount, just enough to smell of antifreeze and almost make it impossible to see....:eek: So now I am in Kodiak, AK and could use some defrost w/o steam, and have a heater core on the way...

    All red tail light conversion questions

    No they are not. For me, the swap to coupe required all of the window trim (even over the doors) from a coupe, the windows, and the interior side panels that were painted (almost) to match. The Ghia panels leave a large hole. I did this swap one part at a time via the internet and that is why...

    All red tail light conversion questions

    I decided to relocate the center lights so that when I get to sequential they are all in line. I used the housings to get the square center light, just going to leave the reverse light hanging without the bulbs. With all of the nifty little dremel tools I bought, a small cheap drill bit in...

    All red tail light conversion questions

    I learned a couple of things. For me, one of the orange lights needed to be removed whole from the donor lights whole. the light can serve as a measurement for the height of the new reds. When removing the orange from the lights to be modified, be very careful. Mine were very brittle with...

    All red tail light conversion questions

    so far, not so good. I had intended to make one all red light out of the two spares I have, but fracked 'em up good. Now I have two red lenses to use on my II, and know how fragile these can be.......... A dremel tool and about 15 of the cheap cut off wheels got 'em out, then I used a...

    All red tail light conversion questions

    I finally got to a II before it was crushed and managed to get the tail lights for a all red swap. For those of you who have done this, how did you? Anything you would have done differently? And what's the best way for the sequential set up? Same questions, how did you do it and what, if...

    HEI Conversion -- Tach wire?

    I have switched to a HEI unit and need to hook up the tach wire. Can anyone tell me which one to use? Pictures would be great. My car no longer has the duraspark unit, just the plugs where it used to be. I needed a new dizzy and this was the cheapest (flebay) and what I could afford. Any help...

    Oooh oooh, a new person to hate!

    You know what... I like my II because most don't --- I have removed all of the letters but the II on the trunk, and the v8's on the fenders. I figure if ya don't know what it is -- than you don't deserve to know. Better to have many think its slow and leave 'em behind....wondering. Just my 2...
