You should take that up on the Hollywood end of Mulholland (I think the Malibu end is still closed?) top down and just chill. That'd be a great drive. One I always try to make in my rental car every time I'm in the area.

In reply to Slippery :
I do like the colour though.
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
The color did look really nice.
In reply to Slippery :
That color is what made me fall in love with them. C. Van Tune had the gold one, you could see on Sunset, that he would write about on Motortrend.
I also love the turquoise colour of that time on that model.
I hate the black I have (for cleaning purpososes), but in my old age I am not as anal, and even go out in public sometimes with a dirty car (which for a black car is all the time)
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
My dad's '66 had the turquoise interior and was originally white.
In reply to Slippery :
That sounds gorgeous!!! The I saw a turqoise exterior, with a full green interior recently at a Caddy club meeting, it was beautiful. Then again I have a tendency to oggle over other people's possessions.
Adding a coolant expansion tank. These cars never came with them. Starting in 1969, they had them. When going up hills, don't like the fluid burping in driveway.
Had to go to store to pick up one to see which fits
Next..
They send me the wrong seals for the Transmission ... toobig.. sigh
Differential seal is the correct one But the pinion yolk is worn I tried to smooth it out the best I can. I put it back together if it leaks I might need to order the Yolk and change the seal again .
I have new transmission seal’s coming tomorrow hopefully one of them will be the correct one
sucking down some $5/gas tonight
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
Shudder to think how big that tank must be.
In reply to HundredDollarCar :
Its only 21 gallon. My hummer h1 and Lexus LS have bigger tanks :)
She got some snow
Car is running well. No updates. Getting some tear on the OEM red leather front dirver seat. Need to stop by upholstery shop.
Is there a repair sleeve available for that yoke? It's a stainless steel sleeve that is press fit on over the wear area.

that's what i was gonna say!
New sleeve hasn't left any drops at all. So I imagine it is working ok, I have been keeping a close eye on it.
Color match time
front seat's reupholstered
I still love that color combo.
