The "Stinkin Lincoln" is being striped!!!

Reply #330 –
All I need is a alt from a 94-96 taurus, or 95+ windstar. If i rev the car the amp light goes out, but if i let it idle it comes back, and thats will all lights out, nothing on, just idling, so IDK but im gonna do it since its gonna be a bit longer till the car is done....
I did a stupid thing last night, spun tires in a movie theater parking lot, and some kid had done a donut about a min before and the cop from inside was outside, and heard me take a corner to fast and the tire spin, and gave me a citation because he assumed that I was trying to copy the other kid and show off.... I got it for driving to endanger, and excessive noise.... I dont think im gonna fight it because I dont want to go to real court.

Update!!!
interior is 100% done, all panels in, trim fixed and painted, mustang wheel in, horn fixed and installed. So its one step closer.
Figured I have no choice, so I started to grind down any rust I found on the car on the body panels so I can save as much of the car as I can possibly save. Gonna get some rust treater to add over all the bare metal, and then gonna try and get a close factory color spray paint to throw over the repairs. Then I have to finish the undercoating below the body trim, and install all the missing trim. Got 2 more of the wheels off and one painted, other one still needs to be masked then painted.Threw some glass down on the passenger side fender finally to get it completed. Then ill have the body panel behind the drivers door, and the rear quarters and the body will be DONE. Found poly sway bar bushings at local auto zone, so Im gonna get my T/C sway bar in soon, so im hoping this thing will handle good. New alt. and IAC coming soon, as well as all new battery cables and upgraded wiring for the alt. Its coming along real well, and I took her out for a spin yesterday. I put the 5.0 through its pases and tried out the AOD and my traclok. Pulled to the end of my street, whipped a hard right, and held her to the floor. my stocker 225's stood NO chance, and it roasted them around the corner, BUT i left a one tire fire, im guessing my traclok is getting worn out since It catches posi in a brake stand, but not in a corner. It was about a 35-45 footer, and it gave me the push I needed to finish the car! Got a thumbs up from a guy driving by which was pretty cool!

That all depends on how much money I can save for gas to drive there, If I get the job I want soon, get the car done, and start saving cash for that trip, Its going.All depends on if it passes inspection, how long these tires hold up, and if everything holds up
Forget I need to get an alignment as well!

left was laied by my budys 460 powered f250 ext cab long bed
right is with my mark, once the timing is correct, and its running better(motor was cold) should be able to put down a better one! Made a nice cloud of smoke though!

I mean as far as engine temp, outside temp has no effect on the car, but if the gauge reads cold it doesnt take gas well and stalls. Once that needle gets about 1/8 away from the blue it runs like a bat out of hell!

got a 4 gauge wire for the new alt
new 4 gauge negative and possitive cables for the battery, and of course they had NO short red ones so all cables are black... O well I know which is which.
Looked for a 175 amp fuse for the alt, no luck only found some 100amp ones
got to go find that somewhere else!

Glad to see things are coming together. Only problem is: not enough pics. lol

Did you test the temp. sensors to see if they are reading correct?
