NO.
He started the Mark VII and it promptly turned into a honda civic, with a grocery cart wing, 47" fart cannon, and 34" wheels, and he's now entered it into this year's Pepsi 400 at Daytona...
errr...maybe not...:hick:
Seriously, hope it runs, and runs good. Sounds like you got a hell of a deal on it if so. :D
Is that a rapuppies getting run over at the end? :hick:
im a little excited it tryed to start like 4 times the battery is so dead it took 5 mins to get it running. Now anyone wanna guess number 2? I, a little worried she smoked under hood, and smelled of burning oil... Its raining out so i couldn't play and its only got 4 gallons in it. Now she needs a oil change, tune up, and fully charged battery!
valve cover are probably leaking or intake rear by the head
thats what i was thinking cause its from back in that area
ok you guys suck at this game, I got a 100 on my permit test, and finally got the lincoln to run, ran bad but it ran!
congrats yah you kinda gotta have a license to be able to play with ur car :D
i ment play as in tinker!
I tried to tink her once!
She slapped me!
:slap:
Congrats on you're accomplishment. Way to ace the test.
Great !!! Now,get the car running right.
new plugs wires cap rotor,and oil change this weekend then a video with a digital camera so you can actually see it lol. Man she idles SOOOO NICE
Sweet, but next time, CLOSE THE DANG DOOR! That beeping can drive a man insane.
Hahaha congrats man....it's a shame you cant just go out by yourself in the Mark...well...legally, anyway. I had my permit for a loooong time and had the joy of watching the Tbird sit in the driveway never getting used for about 2 or 3 years before I got my license. I hope you get to take your car out a lot! And yes, the H.O. does tend to have a nice idle.
You didn't give me long enough to add my guess! :(
I was gonna guess that you were pregnant! :D
:rollin:
guys don't get pregnant!! And im kinda glad im not gonna be able to drive it, that way if i take it apart its no big deal gives me a long time to get the bugs worked out! And possibly do a 5 speed swap
I JUST LIT UP THE TIRES IN MY DRIVEWAY I LOVE TRAC LOC!!!!!!!! Man she idles nice once the battery is charged!!!
And the pictures of this are where? I wana see a pile of rubber behind the car....:evilgrin:
eh i didn't do THAT much, only nailed the throttle, just to see what would happen and man that 5.0 spun those 225's like NOTHING. One pic kindda hard to see cause its raining. I need to find my brake problem, and tune up and oil change before i do anything big.

you can barely see them
Oh man...anyone can peel rubber in the rain! :rollin: ;)
I know my brakes are a little shaky so i didn't wanna do a brake stand only to find myself across the street in a fence
I'll go get pics of last years brakestands before I played with the carb. They are still there. A few dog leggs and one nice one where the TL actually worked. Then I'll get a set of JY rubber for when I finally finish the car and get pics up just to inspire you
ah well once i find out why my abs light is on and if i have a leaky brake line or not, those dry rotted rears need to be cremated!!
Try spinning some 245/50ZR16s. Now thats fun.
eventually
Soon if i mount them, i'll have to try to spin 275/60/15's. Should be intresting. The little 225-60-15's could be lit up easy as pie though
i need to get her up and running good before i even think about new tires
Lol I have 275/40/17 Drag Radials.... trying to spin them makes my rear end clunk... stupid factory 10 bolt.... :hick:
i got a 8.8 tac loc with 3 27's baby!
I got a " susposied" track loc 7.5" w 3.08's
Hah! Yes! Karen beat me to it.
I'm bringing a ed floorjack over to your house tommorow and we will put this trac-lok issue to rest once and for all.
Sure, or wait 2 days till I start it again and I'll SHOW you it has TL
I still don't believe it 100%. We'll find out for sure when we get the rear end off the ground.
well i know but all i did was mash it for about 20 ft in the driveway im not bragging, i enjoyed it started to do a brake stand, shifted a little and started down the driveway and i figured it was to risky. i know mines a trac loc i pulled the tag of the rear
or you could spend 10 min to pull the cover and look for clutches. while you're in there you can see the top of the pinion gear, and it will say "3.27" if they are Ford gears.
me? i already know its a 8.8 trac loc 3. 27 i pulled the rear tag
