Yeah my heart sank when he mentioned the tires because i just bought them lol. Thought maybe the PO was screwing me but all seems well now. I can cruise at 90 and no vibration. My last tires had death wobble 75+. He told me come back in 5-6k and they do free rotations.

Exactly, lol. I'm glas im not paying for it.

I paid 94 bucks for 29 gallons the other day, but I fill up every 4 weeks. I'd do 1.75 tanks in my car in the same time, so putting that much in my tank doesnt bother me.

I sold the spoiler! YAAAAAHHHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

put air in the tire, turned off the low tire light, just for you bill lol



5 mile drive, and and dpwn to 15.8 mpg, all local this trip. it will be at 14 before i know it.

Got my 66 Tbird home today!

Nice, went all the way down to grosse pointe to get it?

Are you going to restore it? Looks to be decent from the back for a 66.

The Tbird was down in the Pointes. One owner car been stored since 1980 in a garage. Was last started in 2003. Was a Florida car for a while.

The battery from Nov. 1975 had enough power to turn on the interior lights. They were dim.

I plan on doing engine, trans, brake and suspension maintenance. The car has 60k original miles.

Then if she runs good and drives nice get it painted up. The intetior is mint.i dont need to touch it.

Worst rust is the battery traay and a small area in the trunk.

That's pretty awesome, expect a few electrical issues though. I've experienced that a lot with my uncle's cars sitting for years. I broke down and bought the power probe III, best $100 you could ever spend when in a frustrating situation like some are.

I'm about to go speed!

3.4 Pulley on.. Wwhhhheeeeeeeee. My slow kar isn't so slow any more. But I still get a flashing CEL for cyl 2 misfire occasionally, under no load, so idling or coasting downhill it happens, but not all the time. Its semi rare. Still no KR though which makes me happy. Should be able to have my tuner bump up my timing next time I see him. I only have 14* at WOT.

Here's one to offset Scotts 15.8mpg
