There is going to be a fully built 40th with SC, OEM aux tank, full expo build, HG and all PM done to it with 160k miles, all parts bought from me or CDan, tons of JDM goodies
Coming out of LA real soon.

Real baby rig.... Seriously pampered.

And $20K plus I'd think...
 
Won't be under 7k!
 
Roasted the AC in the 80 on the way to Birmingham. It Locked up and threw the belt . I thought i had a fire from the smell and smoke. It Took out the dash gauges and windows. James was on his way to get me when Luckily Chris found a thread on mud About it. So i unplugged the connection to the AC in front of the battery so it wouldn't blow the dash gauge/ window fuse again. With the Windows down, travel continued. Thanks guys!


I noticed now that the other belts are twisted on the pulley...weird. No noise works fine..

Damn that stinks sorry to hear. Theres nothing like some good backup and friends when things go South. I'm making a mental note should I run into the same fate, I just reworked the AC last summer but still has the OEM compressor it was still working fine and so far so good. Hope you get it cooling again soon its been too damn hot without it :)
 
Orderd AC parts today from $279 shipped -denso compressor, expansion valve, and dryer.

May tackle it myself dunno yet.

In the process of changing the belts i bumped this radiator hose and broke the hose bib thing DOH.
When it rain it pours.

I put a screw in it to plug it off till i get a new radiator..screw it

Anyone got a radiator for sale?

My just say F it and put in a F'n V 8

There is a wrecked 200 at Barnetts on 51. I just saw it quickly when i was driving on ridgewood but could have rolled. Go get the 5.7 L out of it.

Check with radiator barn and get one for a 93-93. The same but all metal.
 
I still have (I think) a radiator that was only about a year old when I took it out. I put bars-leaks in while in a pinch one time and the stuff expanded the tank gaskets so much, they popped out from in-between the tank and core.

Both tanks and core are in good shape if you feel like attempting to either replace the top tank on your radiator, or replace the gaskets on mine with ones you take off yours. (I tried for an hour or so to find replacement gaskets without luck)

Here's a write up on replacing radiator tanks.
