Howdy! I just picked up a 1964 T-bird and here's the good and bad
Interior looks amazing, floor seems to be solid, car overall other then the trunk seems to be pretty solid.
Runs and drives fantastic
The bad
Interior vacuum stuff doesn't work (disconnected & ancient)
Theorized vapor-lock (won't idle if it's turned off for a short amount of time, has to drive a while before it'll be able to idle again
Radio doesn't work ( would like to replace with a Bluetooth one that looks the part where the original is)
Trunk pan rusted decently
A/c was removed - how hard is this going to be to put back in or should I upgrade it?
The throttle also keeps falling off this bearing looking thing.
And the gauges aren't accurate or aren't working. Speedo died on my way back from the purchase, oil doesn't move, voltage actually looks right and fuel doesn't go over half
Any help, suggestions or upgrade ideas very much appreciated this will likely be a resto-mod daily driver able vehicle so I'm not opposed to modernizing things.
