Original Rim Color
When I get some new shoes for my 64 Fleetwood, I'd like to recondition the rims.
I'd thought of getting them powder coated, and still plan to eventually, but the $700 quote I received shunted that for the time being as that money can go elsewhere on the car. That being said, I'd like to still get the rims wire brushed and painted.
Most would just paint them flat black, but I know they were not that color from the factory. Is there a factory color out there that I can match to? Even a name?
I know on the Ford/Lincoln side, it was Dove Gray.
Thanks all!
Logan

I wonder if it was the same color as Ford. That is interesting!

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
Vintage Air AC
Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments 1 Like
Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
