Hello 2nd Gen gear heads. I have a rather simple question Im sure for all of you. Since Im a first gen guy, I dont have a lot of knowledge with 2nd gen cars. Does anyone have or can suggest where I can find a wiring diagram on how the functional door operates on a shaker hood?
thanks mike |

By the way, on the survivor, have you been able to distinguish which front and rear end assembly parts were painted and which were natural? front stabilizer bar? steering linkage? rear stabilizer? rear end? stabilizer front and rear cap brackets? More, more pictures... this time the underside. Can you tell we are excited to see you reveal this survivor!

Thanks! I see the blue paint on the gas tank straps. Very interesting. Brewster will have something to say about that as well.

I SEE THE ORIGINAL SPIRAL SHOCKS AND EVEN LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL EXHAUST PIPES HAVE NOT BEEN CHANGED.

ok i had to go look - cleaned the straps a bit and here are the pics - they are painted. perhaps they were 'hanging' while the car was painted before the tank was installed.
the number on the strap is 3965632 |

One of the questions that has yet to be cleared up is when the straps were hanging, why isn't there more color overspray on the bottom side of the trunk pan? We know there is color overspray shot from the side of the car, but not a lot of evidence of an upward or rearward spray to catch the straps. Maybe the blue on the straps is just overspray from the rearward spray shots. Do the front of the straps have color on them? Also, on the USS tank ID, I always thought the 12 30 70 was a date code. If it is, then that's quite a long timeframe from mfr. to install into the car.

Whatever you do, don't chemically strip, sand, or refinish those bare metal parts underneath - use this stuff instead:
http://www.safestrustremover.com/ I used it on my car and tons of parts and it is just frikken amazing. It doesn't remove or alter the actual metal, it just washes away the rust. It works just as well on exhaust pipes, too. I set up a mini sump pump in a kiddy pool under my car with a garden sprayer head and just let it spray at the surface rust for days. The results were amazing! http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...433662&page=14 |

Maybe they had a lot of earlier tanks sitting around that month. My 12A car had the 12/20/1971 date on its original tank - that was one day before it shipped out on 12/21/1971. http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...433662&page=17 |
