Left me stranded a few times today when I went to start up the car. No ignition. Wires and grounds are fine. It would randomly start after a number of attempts. Twice it dropped out when I was driv ...

SKORE!

The editing is so primative. The doubletake from the German guy = LOL.

Randy, are you sure that's pastelblau? IIRC it is a squarie-only color:

No, I am not sure! I stole that photo from a for-sale site without thinking about it. That site must have listed the color ...

The suddenness of the problem points to ignition system.

One quick check is if your tach needle bounces around and/or zeros out while the engine is still revolving, it is ignition.

As long as ...

Oh, and, welcome to the sickness.

Statistically more engine tuning issues relate to the ignition system. If you are not a traditionalist, putting in a Crane or Pertronix ignition will make life easier.

all of the segments were filmed in the Tampa Bay area, I am going to try and find out who owns the 02 they used..

I have the impression the 02 segment was compiled from archives.

You're half way there.
Step 1 - Hook up the strobe and see glimpses of a dancing ball.
Step 2 - Well, I haven't figured out the 2nd half either. But if it runs good after you button it up, you've ...

Apparently the 02 is NOT one of the 101 cars that Alonzo Bodden must drive.

So is this car a Tii or are all the plates made like this?
All of the plates on the later 02s are made like that. The last US tiis were produced in Dec 1974, so your 76 was not a tii.

I don't want to be cruel, but did they have cross dressers back in the early 70s?

It should be pretty close to your 75.

I swear they should reissue that car!

You'll find matters quite serious here now. Your username makes me quite uncomfortable.
