  1. Phone conversation,that's what we need. I need the dash and visors.Scotty in Norwich was interested in the engine and tranny.You've got the interior. I wanted axles and any decent calipers,rotors,drums.....maybe some more craziness.We'll talk. Oh,I also want the tailgate,the good tail light,trim,etc.......for some customers. hmmmm,that hood looked good too,didn't it?hehehehe
  2. ho ho ho nice tree Mary!!! I really need to hustle on this stuff.So many things to do..... Going up tonight if it's not to dangerous out.
  3. I offered to help someone in Romania.I think there's more than one person from Romania on the board. Somewhere in my old email I might have a list of wanted parts.I'll check a little later. I'm half Romanian.
  4. Next mortgage would "require" giving up the workshop.But you'll all be welcome at my garage/driveway.
  5. Oh,I know it wasn't you sweetie. Beautiful day today!!! I'll be there later for any locals.Drive up and hang out past midnight like dave and Melis.You'll love it!
  6. Best to just make arrangements to stop down at a convenient time for both of us.Email or keep PM'ing and we'll hook up eventually. I haven't set a definite date yet because I've asked you all to speak up about when is best. Anyone who is fairly local can make arrangements.It might be a bit of a strain on you but for free stuff or a great deal on something you sometimes need to compromise. I'll be up there most of the day today.
  7. .......uhhh,amen..... OK,I can accept that. Mary,my camping stuff is there with the minus 20 deg. sleeping bags.Essential when you love Nova Scotia. And yes Dave,you must have known I was getting an XT just for the low miles MPFI and the seats. :-p So,that means we need to bust butt and make some more floor space.And loft space.And shelf space..........Amen. Seriously folks,stop by.I know it's the busy season.Boy do I know! Email,call,send smoke signals but no tobacco please,whatever it takes to make an arrangement to stop by for a visit. Going up tonight for a start on the XT parting.....best to call. Connie,might be in Danbury really soon if I hustle.Edit:Not going to D'bury. I'll be at the shop if I make it past the yacht club..... :-\
  8. Gosh,I thought you knew the radiator came out easy and that you'd be doing this comfortably. Good luck with it.
  9. Lots of southwestern car owners get them.I have one that came with my '87 wagon and it's really not bad for looks.They have stick on velcro pads so it doesn't slide around.(at least mine does). It's all about functionality.It hides a cracking dash,or protects it.Either way it's a step in the right direction for a small investment.
  10. Went to Homo Cheapo last night for a quick plumbing fix.Naturally I found myself back at 6AM today but that's another story.... Pull in,park and I look up and there's a 360 sedan.Not a resto,not some rag falling apart either.Just a good old man's car,well kept,decent shape-actually outstanding considering what it is. It's the cream color with red interior.Some cracks in the interior and minor blemishes on the exterior. So when I come out of the store the old fellow is getting in and fires it up.Sounded pretty cool,very moto-like!!!It went off and I tried to follow.Not sure what happened but I went one way and then turned around.All of a sudden he comes from the other direction.....well,it was late and I just made a quick turnaround to try to follow but didn't see which way he split off.Definitely was an old man driving. I left him a note,not about buying it but just for contact info if he needs it.This little baby has probably been here the whole time,just the next town over,about 2 miles from where I've lived most of my life. You never know where and when you're going to spot little creampuffs like this.It's usually between 9:30AM and noon when the old ladies come out for appointments and shopping.Check you local shopping centers and medical centers at those hours if you're really looking for something older still running. Any 360's still thumping along in your neighborhood?
  11. OK,just had a conversation with the wife.We are indeed getting a storage place and going to start taking our personal items out of the aleged workshop.She wants me to go get the stoage place ASAP,so hopefully I'll have even more room very soon. You guys come up and help,take some stuff,and hopefully the rest of the keeper stuff will fit in storage untill we are in our next home. Yes,I'm home sick today for those wondering.Feeling a little better now,thank you.
  12. Right Dave.Everyone should bring a vehicle with space for parts and maybe some blankets,tie downs,etc....... Early start this time.We attack at dawn!I'll be all coffee'd up and rocking.Hopefully I'll have a huge amount outside before folks show up. Smoke outside you stinkin smokers!!!!!! Cig. butt in my bathroon....shame,shame.....you guys know how I feel about this.Besides the annoyance,there's way too much at stake of losing.Guilt-family pictures-gulit-all our camping stuff,kids stuff,some old family furniture items-guilt......please smoke outside,thank you. I'm sure you girls can find other ways of annoying me. For the love of God!
  13. I figure we'd be a bit more organized if we 70's through '80 owners got ourselves a contact list now before the mid 80's folks turn vintage too. Our cars are a breed all their own.Beyond the original series,yet pre-computer excepting the '80-81 Brats etc. Anybody up for compiling the info? I think if we linked the user name we can all have each others contact info,if filled out.Just add what vehicle(s) we own. I'm borrowing a Mac laptop and have no idea how to cut and paste with this thing,sorry. Maybe as a group we might also have some buying power for the last of what's out there for stock.But that's a distant dream right now.
  14. EXACTLY,what Graig said. Heat the driver blade,insert,let cool,turn out,done. And then you'll need my which you can't find in any store at any price.Don't i wish. Most of us 70's owners have those around.I've got at least one complete radiator in excellent shape and another in very good condition.Good to boil them out at the age they're at.Go for the new cock plug and clean up the thermo sensor with some 0000 steel wool.Clean up the grounding point.Good for another 5 years with a good core. Cheers.
  15. Date to be determined but count on it being in December. Location: 230 Woodmont Rd. Unit 41-C Milford,CT 06460 Santa has already left a ton of parts to give away.
  16. Sorry,I thought he wanted to pull the dash,didn't realize he can just swap the vent. Personally I've done plenty of dash removals and it's a breeze.For a car that old it'd be smart to swap cores now before winter really kicks in.I'm doing one later this week.
  17. Raven,if you need a cock I have one. Be sure to pull yours out first. Then you can insert the one I have. OK,that was all funny,but I really do have a drain cock if you need one. Cheers.
  18. I swear it was a workshop before it became a storage space. Got me some more room thanks to Dave. Next round-the Holiday Extraveganza!!! Santa gives out gifts to all.....side molding,DL dashboard,rear cargo area panels,roof liners,13" hubcaps......everything and elf can stuff in your ...............car! Jesse,better add that Brat to your signature before enough parts fall off. :-p
  19. You'd be smart to spend the $45 on the new heater core too while the dash is out.Just a thought,if you've got the spare dough.
  20. No Todd,they're still under the part of the mess that hasn't moved yet. Waiting for you to come up and help out...LOL. With a drive like Dave had at that hour I'd have grabbed 2 coffees,M&M's,and anything else to keep me company.Especially when the navigator gets to sleep.
  21. Glad you could make it down. Now see,wasn't that worth the trip?
  22. I caught just a few raindrops on the way home,around 1:20.Worked out just right.THANKS guys!!!! Dave and the candle crack dealer stayed and hooked me up with some serious candle and soap,yo!....oh and Dave and Melis helped by bringing stuff in and re-stacking.....I have an aisle!!!!!!!! Thanks guys part II !!!! Thanks Mary! Nice to meet you and Tim.
  23. OK so you be sure to come down,Mary and I'll be sure to meet you there,rain or moonglow.It's having a herd of folks in a place with absolutley no floorspace right now with rain outside that I'm worried about. So listen up folks,the rest of you call or if you travel a long way I garuntee I'll take the time for you.Some folks might have to wait out in their cars if it's raining.I just don't have the floorspace.I really need good weather to open the o/h door and take crap out so we can set up the band and dance the night away. Geez,it'll be like a freakin drive in with curb service.You lucky S.O.B.'s get your Subaru parts brought out to your car!!!There's just no sense to having folks attempt to wade through. Yikes,gotta sleep,later.
