  1. It's a short line so easy to DIY n replace. Autozone and others will loan out a brake bending and flare kit for free. Would take old line with me to match the fittings and the flare. $20. for a wheel cylinder another $15. for a line and two fittings.
  2. I think if you can cancel the order through PayPal I would be okay with that. Will still lose some money but oh well. Were looking at another month or more just in shipping. Not optimistic.
  3. Yes, Speedhut gauges were very complete and very nice quality. Not cheap but would buy again for sure. You can customize the faces however you want. I did the faces and needles as close to factory as I could.
  4. Mahle OC84. It was either Bluntech or Ireland. I'll have to look at my receipts. According to the InterWeb their more crush proof when engine oil is cold. So far so good. Not that I've ever had any problem with that.
  5. I went the oil filter mount that many do. sandblasted the part and drilled n tapped.
  6. I just used an adaptor so both work. I have Speedhut gauges.
  7. I remember the shag carpet in the trunk.
  8. We replaced the old fuel line with a new OEM plastic one on the 71 In the name of science we set fire to the old one. It did collapse onto its self,,, mostly. The bubble is from blowing air after the fire went out. If I had a pretty old one would replace with new or go under the car.
  9. I've seen what it takes to make quality cf molds. You'r killin it, truly well done. can't wait to see more.
  10. When I brought mine across the border Customs agent asked is that a Fiat ? Ah No,
  11. Were debating if we should keep this fine audio feature on the 71. Quite unique and very rare. IMG_4352.MOV
  12. We finished brakes, wheel bearings, fuel lines ,battery cable on the 71.

  15. After a few days of figuring out what we have. We started working on our new to us 71 Malaga. Car is in great shape, does have some rust that we will repair. Started replacing front wheel bearings and all the brakes. Lots of little stuff, exhaust hangers, rubber fuel inlet and newer door cards for starters. Anti theft device ? Worst of the rust, both sides will get repaired A older fuel line repair ? Correct line to be ordered Will plan to start a build thread soon.
  16. I get my fair share of thumbs up and people yelling "nice car". Woman all think its such a cute little car. I think being Orange has as much to do with it as anything. Maybe a quarter of the people know what it is at most.
  17. I owned a 72 Monte Carlo, there are no great memories. ?
  18. Brought this home last week. The car is in great shape and will be saved. Owner felt he had it long enough and felt it needed a new home. Was 15 minutes from my house. He was a bit overwhelmed by all the interest and glad it went local. He received more than asking but were all happy. Build thread to follow.
  19. Passenger side outer wheel bearing went south Wednesday night. Replacement was pretty drama free. Figured out I have e21 hubs but not sure of the vented rotor yet. The disc hold down screw broke and new one is to big, so need to figure that out. PO used half the amount of grease so I have new wheel bearings for driver side also, just to be safe.
  20. I have one of these, very nice work. Looks great on my DCOE's and very clean look.
  21. Good to hear. Let us know what you need for packaging and shipping when they come in.
  22. Any luck with this ? Been a couple weeks .
