Hey everyone. I'm pretty new to this site, mostly just looked around when this car became available to me to learn about it.
Its a 3TC carbed with no upgrades except exhaust(I think).
No AC or PS...(Living in Florida makes no AC a pain.. PS isnt a problem in a 2200lb car)
Been sitting for 3+ years
The engine bay looks pretty bad I think I have a lot of work to do
I think since AC and PS was removed that's why there's so many unused wires and connectors..
It ran fine but now I'm pretty sure the alternator is not charging..
What is blocked off by that plate?
Also there's a vacuum connector on the carburetor side of the Tranny with no lines in the area.. whats that for?
Anyways I have some pretty big plans for this car, EFI is a goal maybe even boost down the line, but first I have to start with reliability and so I'm definitely going to update my chassis parts
this car has a lot of probems mostly electrical, check out my other posts if you have time.. thanks
