I am in need. But getting to Seattle is somewhat of a problem (granted the 900 or so mile drive is tempting just to do it). My OD transmission died in my 72B so I am still in need of a temporary rep

I'm still curious about the difference between Napa Gold and Napa silver, besides cost. I usually buy the Napa silver equivalents, except for the filter for my 67BGT (canister design, messy but origi

I would have to say accelerator cable. My 67BGT had problems with a sticking piston and it did not cause the engine to accelerate. Quite the opposite - it would die at idle and seemed to hesitate on

No, that's what comes up when you click the link but it wrapped in the email. So you only got a partial number on the URL. I got the same message. So I then cut and pasted the whole thing in my brows

I would agree with the bad connection. However, I would focus on three places. The battery terminals, battery ground, and then the connection of the battery cable on the starter post. It would be pru

I just drilled out the rivets. I don't think the glass extends that far up. But you shouldn't have to drill but the very top surface of the rivet with a 1/8" drill bit to get it to release. The probl

I always replace the release bearing when I have the engine or transmission out. But many years ago, I did an engine overhaul on my 71BGT and did not pay attention or notice that the collar on the pr

That's real close to what I once estimated my 71BGT with OD at. I drove it for several years while the speedometer was not working so I kept track all my gas purchases in order to determine how many

I think this is a function of the wiper arms themselves. I believe my 67 BGT is left to right, parked left. My 72B is the opposite, but it also has three wipers. I have a collection of various used w
