I have a set that I purchased new, now sold only to find out previous owner removed the stock mounts.?

I washed the ‘76. I actually washed it, for the first time since it returned from the Big Re-Paint in June 2018!
 

Under the excuse that washing can damage paint, while driving is good for the car, I delayed and delayed and delayed this first wash. But it looks much better!

First wash,Wow.  Use the two bucket method makes a big difference.   Car looks great  by the way.

False statements and blatant lies absolute yes.

Maybe the seller bought thinking bargain and not knowing the real vin or maybe he's a crook.

But until someone looks at and compares all the vin stampings you would have no idea what this car really is.

I'm saying someone shopping for potential value she might be worth a drive to Valencia the car won't lie.

 

Love the optimism ?

Run into a few places that ship same day now take two,three days just to ship.

Sign of the times I'm afraid. 

Is impressive build. What are you using for blasting ? Parts turn out very nice.

But just wait, Dan. A new owner will appear here four months from now saying, “I paid $39K for this ‘72 tii three months ago, but some ‘02 owners at a Cars & Coffee are suggesting it’s not a ‘72 tii. The title even says it’s a ‘72 tii. What gives?”

 

Best regards,

So true

Changed the main jets in my 40 Webers. Butt dyno says it's a good thing.

Need to order some bigger Venturi's then just a little more fine tuning.

The only thing that says 72 is the owner.  Wonder if anyone has tried to contact him.

I get the idea someone thought they had a quick flip. $$$

Looking for some Weber DCOE side draft Venturi's 30mm through 36mm.  Would prefer set of four.

Might be interested in Jets and such. Thx

195/50x15 with a Renown 330mm steering wheel. I definitely feel like Pop Eye when I back out of my garage and make a hard right to the street. I wish maybe a inch or two tops bigger, but it's such a great wheel.

and it goes so well with the gear shift.

Saturday Cars and Coffee, was misting so tried wipers no worky. WTF never a problem before. When home took stalk apart and cleaned contacts. Works again yea,,

The top one is what I have for my 02. I have a tii engine in mine.  BluntTech had me email them a photo of my cap.

They said there are variables on what cap will fit even if you have the part number.

I have this on  my 2002 with 40 webers. Works like factory, very nice system love mine.

Well I opened Pandora's Box and found Weber 40 DCOE's and a afr gauge.  Had my youngest ride with me while I read him numbers to write down off the afr gauge. Then checked the timing and was going to change points but I have the wrong one,,duh.

Went through and checked my jets and emulsion tube to see what I got.  Did a little research and found nobody runs the same set up.?

And so it begins.  

Reblead the front brakes in proper order, just a little bit of air.  Changed out my spark plugs. They look a little rich to me as the new afr would suggest. Plan on checking my timing today and get some legit afr numbers. Then figure out what all my jets are.

Went to the Ear Doctor yesterday, did some work on my right ear.  I never knew how loud my car was.?  I like it.  

Sounds pretty decent I think...

Agreed,looks like a squaretail.  I would put a ad in the parts wanted section for the grill. You should be able to get one there. 

Drove it a couple hours on back roads, under the guise of getting data off my new afr gauge. 

wow ☹️

Washed it and drove it to Wednesday Night Cruise at Gilmore Car Museum. 

Bought a  73 tii  in the late 90's had a 86 Golf GTI with a Callaway turbo and a Suburban . Suburban was stolen out of Detroit Metro  Airport. Only kept the tii one year then  sold it cause too many cars. Bought this 73 last May owning two e39 Tourings and a 05 Mazda 6

soon to be a Mazda CX-5,plus lose a Touring and get a Silverado for my winter vehicle. My oldest has a SIlverado and a 73 Camaro that will be a Pro Touring ride.   Plan is bigger place and pole barn next spring.
