  1. I have a Sedan/Wagon windshield that I totally forgot I had, and I have a fancy crate to safely ship it!
  2. If you can find a hub for second gen cars, the splines are the same. I used a 1983 steering wheel in my 78 GL wagon.
  3. I think that is the hole for the clutch fork on RHD cars. On a side note, I am sure that A/C stuff was brand new (though really greasy/dusty), but you could replace the compressor/condenser with more modern hardware and have good A/C. Have you sold the car? Have a link to the ad if you haven't?
  4. I have collected at least 2 complete distributor+ignitor combos for the electronic ignition EA71s. I have both the Hitachi (external) and NipponDenso (internal) setups if you're interested. I sold my wagon, so I don't need them.
  5. If the radiator is the same as a 78 wagon's, I have a freshly painted and tested one you can have for $25. It is only missing the fan switch, the one it had was busted. I have a fan shroud, but not a motor for it. You could probably fit a better than stock motor/fan in it.
  6. I have a 78 4WD wagon and don't run the mechanical fan. I made sure my cooling system is in good shape, and use a radiator overflow bottle instead of the atmospheric dump tube. I live where its hot and do a 3mile 7% grade climb at 60mph daily and the car barely warms up.
  7. If that is an EA71, its a Denso points style with single advance. I see PACE SETTER Part # C605Z may fit, it has holes and specifically mentions the Denso distributor. All the Hitachi units are clip on, and I even think the electronic ignition Denso units are clip on as well.
  8. I finally got it through smog and the DMV, and put 1400 miles on it in 3 weeks on my 45 mile commute.
  9. I thought they had gear drive cams, using a gear on the crankshaft and the one gear on the camshaft itself.
  10. I'm not running the chrome strip on the winshield or rear glass and haven't had any issues.
  11. I'll do a Google Sketchup drawing sometime with them, the interesting thing is that the outrigger (moustache bar) bushings are the same as the front hanger mount bushings. In addition to that part about the stopper bushings being the same as later cars, in addition to the fact that I could actually get the Gen 1 bushings might mean we don't have to make them except for performance versions of high durometer urethane.
  12. I always wondered how you get all the vacuum advance/retard functions working properly with the Weber, and I guess the answer is you don't and just run on centrifugal advance.
  13. What would this all cost shipped to 93453: brown seat cover intermittent wiper box heater core (have whole box assembly?) key/lock set for wagon I could also use: heater levers/cables/controls (I only really need the mode setting plastic levers on top of the heater core that the cables attach) 2 door handle trim pieces interior panel on the wagon rear hatch (black)
