General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / 1983 TC Color combo
Guess I was right, got my Marti report and my car is 1 of 47 with that combination.
More than likely there are some other unique combos out there.
Too bad rare doesn't = valuable. :hick:

Engine Tech / Thermostat
Of course there are only 2 bolts that need to come off but one is hidden. Requiring removal of a bunch of stuff.
Original thermostat and bolts and the car gods were looking down on me since neither bolt broke off.
Odd looking thermostat. Anyone familiar with them?

Lounge / Battery tender salvage
My question is, can I still us the center tap transformer to make a 'dumb' tender and a few off the shelf parts? If so, suggestions?
There is a circuit that creates 13.65 VDC (normal output of a working unit in HOLD mode) which the logic somehow used to drive the SCR's. I tried applying it to gate of the SCRs and get a nice output but when connected to a battery, the output drifts high (15VDC+)
I checked a good unit and when the battery is charged and in HOLD mode the voltage is 13.65VDC and drawing about 100ma. Not sure if the unit limits the current or if that's all a fully charged battery will draw at that voltage??
Will probably replace them with new units but before I toss the old ones figured maybe I can salvage them. Maybe even a little bench 12v supply even though they only supply 2A.
Thanks for any suggestions.....

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / 1983-84 Grille emblem
I don't ever recall seeing one this color and from the picture it look either original or nicely painted?
Anyone ever see an emblem that wasn't turquoise, black or silver?
