    Radiator

    Thanks for the offer. I have a complete radiator in bad condition that I could bring to a shop to recore. But Im looking for a cheaper alternative for now. Something I could use temporarily while i get the car running again.

    Radiator

    Looking for a good condition radiator for my 1968 1602. Doesn't have to be mint, as long as its not leaking. Prefer someone local so I dont have to spend $ on shipping. Im in Queens, NY. I know its a long shot, but figured Id try before looking for something shipped.

  7. nice! how long can you leave the metal bare before flash rust becomes an issue? Did you prime it right away?

    Legal delivery to Hoffman Motors Corp (a New York-domiciled corporation) on January 2, 1968.
  9. That’s exactly what I’m going to do. Hopefully it will be ok and not in need of a sealer. But the POR15 will be there just in case. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Im about to tackle this job also. Thanks for the update! and the heat gun invention! I'll be using the same method to dry. I ordered the POR15 kit to seal it. Im hoping to do it this weekend.
  11. No Sal from Fingers. From the link you posted. I think I’m going to try to clean it out myself. I’ve seen a couple of write ups where they used vinegar or Evaporust to clear the rust. Then use redkote to seal it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Im looking to clean up some rust from my tank as well. how long did you let the vinegar sit in the tank? did you seal it afterwards?
  13. I just called Sal. He quoted me $295. Seal and paint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Hey guys. Took out my gas tank today. Car hasn't run in about 20 years. There was some very old gas left in there and when i drained in it was brown and smelled terrible. Im worried the inside of the tank may be rusty. I was going to attempt to clean it up and seal it myself, but the gas that came out has me a bit concerned. Its probably better to have it done professionally. Im in Long Island City, Queens and was wondering if anyone can recommend a shop here in Queens. Or close by. Ive attached a pic of the gas that came out.
  15. was hoping you'd get some recommendations. Im in the process of rebuilding a 1968 1600 and was looking for an 02 specialist in the area.
  16. I'll take it. I Pm'd you
  17. looking for a rust free drivers side seat rail. (transmission side). And roof supports for my '68 slick top.
  18. sorry for the bad pics. Im looking for these parts for my 68 1600. the seat rail is the drivers side. its the one closest to the trans tunnel. also wondering if I can source the roof supports. my roof is dented and both supports are bent. My car does not have a sunroof. any help is appreciated. Edit** Im also looking for the rear passenger shock tower mount and a battery tray.
  19. Yes! I would be interested in seeing the video.
  20. That's an option! Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. So Im in the process of going over everything that will be needed to try to get my 1600 started for the first time in a couple of decades. And Im new to all of this, so i apologize for the newb questions. Ive researched the brake booster vacuum line and the check valve associated with it. All info seems to point to a check valve between the booster and the intake manifold, separated by a main hose from the booster to the valve and a smaller hose from the valve to the manifold. But my car has this fitting attached to the manifold itself ( see pic). Is this the check valve for the early cars? Or did the PO change something? Do i attach the vacuum hose to this fitting directly from the booster? My car is a 1968 1600 with a 12/1967 build date.
