Ky69Mach

I installed my battery for the first time in 20 years last night to check everything since putting my dash back in and my heater switch is only working at wide open speed. The lower speeds are not working at all. Any ideas?

I know from being in the tractor business that a coil overheating will cause this type of problem, at least on a gas tractor anyway. Just an idea. I have had farmers tell me the engine would die and by the time they checked everything, the coil would cool down and fire back up only to do the same thing. You might try replacing the coil.

Could somebody please snap a picture of the door jamb where the wiring comes out of the body beside the dash on the passenger door side. I am trying to see what I need to go here. It has been apart a long time. I have the light switch that goes there but not for sure on the door harness. Thanks :001_unsure: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ky69stang/

Dynamat is in, brake master cylinder and lines are in working, hydraulic clutch master cylinder in, all pedals restored and installed with roller bearings. Ready to install my dash. Just two weeks out on a fresh 427 Windsor. I can hardly wait. I hope I can turn the key around my birthday on the ides of March! http://www.flickr.com/photos/ky69stang/

She is back on the ground and unwrapped. Brake lines installed, clutch master cylinder installed, POR15 inside and under with a a layer of satin enamel underneath. My motor is being balanced right now. I am getting ready to order my TKO. The anxiety is setting in, it's been too long http://www.flickr.com/photos/ky69stang/

Has anyone installed a shaker on a 351W with a Victor Jr. intake. I am trying to find out if there is an issue with the hood closing if I do this.

It is modern driveline as well. I assumed that was where to drill, but you know what the say about assuming. I wanted to make sure. Thanks buening!

I received my hydraulic master cylinder kit today, going to install tonight. Any idea where to drill the lever hole in the firewall. I don't have a knockout since this is a automatic car. I do have to be what looks like a dimple or punch mark poking in towards the interior of the car close to where it looks as if the hole might go. Any help would be great.

Thanks, a couple to three hours per night go a long way.

Oh well, here is a link to a flikr account. Maybe this will work

Current progress is going good. I'm trying to learn to post photos

I live in Glasgow. We are about 30 miles due east of Bowling Green, one hour north of Nashville, TN on 31E

I am new to the forum so I figured I should tell a little about myself and my car since you guys have been so helpful in answering my questions. I purchased my 69 Mach 1 24 years ago at the ripe ol age of 14. I mowed yards to buy it. I am the third owner of the car. It was sold new in the county next to mine in 1969. The car has never left the state of Kentucky. I now have three sons of my own and figured it was time to finish what I started so long ago. I am ready for the motor and transmission to go in. It is all painted inside, outside, and underneath. Just a matter of bolting parts on now. I am putting a 427 Windsor with a TKO 600 behind it and running 373 pos in the rear. She is Triple black and clean. I am ready for this to be finished. Again, thanks for the help on this forum. :thumbup:

Can the automatic brake pedal bracket be used when adding a manual transmission to a 69. I purchased the two pedal assembly used, however, the linkage hole is oblong and I am afraid of too much play with the modern driveline hydraulic set up I am going with. I saw where they offer a replacement clutch pedal, but it is not original. Are they good?

Any ideas on how to get light scratches out of original glass? I want to keep my original back glass but there are some minor scratches.
