    Thanks. The build date is January '71 hence why the "early" duds.

    I drive down there couple times a week (to see the lady of my life), usually on Haster.

    I put the carpet in, no sure on who made it as the set came with the car. Thanks for the compliment! The wheel is now sold, thanks for all the interest and best of luck to those who missed out on this one!

    Oof you're absolutely right, I apologize. i'll stick with my opinion but do what strikes your fancy it's your car, you live wwith it.

    ^^^ I agree, it just doesn't go well with the car, even the white gauges are a bit much. just finished redoing mine, here's some inspiration...

    I would also like to know who owns that car, I have a question about the roof rack

    Now if only Motor Trend was in fact written by a plethora of busty beauties we'd be set!

  12. AceAndrew

    So the other day My car stopped idling. I would come up to the stoplight the it would just die. To keep the motor going I would feather the gas while stationary, it was pretty rough but running. After two days of that it has now decided to run great! idle...no problem. Almost drives smoother than before! this is the stock single barrel on an early '71. What might have happened?

    Thanks guys, unfortunately there was bolt/nut that would not come apart on the drive shaft/guibo. I was able to shimmy around it and replace the shifter plate. Once I have a bit more time I'll replace guibo (as a safety precaution) and shifter bushings. ????how do I get the bolts back in!!?? they wont just slide in and everything seems a mess. I have the guibo clamped down but they still don't line up!

    wonderful pictures! It's not every day you get to see a Bandini! Any details on that particular car?
  16. AceAndrew
    Replacing my shifter plate, and tring to drop the driveshaft (never done it before) just unbolted the four nuts attaching the flange to the guibo, what steps do I need to take to drop it from there, do I need to remove the guibo as well? thank you in advance, this is a liberating feeling working on my own car.

    glad you could use the picture too! haha. my car is an early '71 who's shifter was not yet part of the center consul, perhaps it was one of the changes for the late '71+ cars. Good luck finding the surround!
  18. AceAndrew
    wow! you guys are awesome! I'm already in your debt. So I am getting a used shifter plate to just put in until new parts arrive.

    email sent! Thank you very much for that diagram, doesn't look too intimidating that way.

    i'm sure this will be the first of many questions I have for you 02 gurus. I am mechanically inclined but not very experienced..yet ( this car is meant to change that ) A couple of days ago my shifting started to feel very sloppy and not sound quite right, yesterday I lost the ability to go into third gear, and today I lost first. Upon taking off the rubber boot and removing the rotten foam this is what I found. Just busted clean! I do not know what part that is or how to replace it. Any help would be great as I need to fix it as soon as possible, it's my DD. ( my repair manual is on it's way but wont be here for a number of days )

    I'm up in Monrovia at the moment but will be moving into Pasadena soon. Thanks for the pump advice, turning it upside down at the Arco stations seems to work the best.

    take it to Pacific Motorsports in Portland and have Terry look it over. I just bought one in Seattle and stopped off in Portland to have him do a thorough once over before driving it to Los Angeles.

    If that wheel hub adapter is for a NARDI wheel I'll take it. Also if the roundels do not sell to the first two in line I'll take them as well.
  24. AceAndrew
    I'll try emailing him Directly then and see what turns up, thanks
