Thanks, Rodger and Gabby
The '62 Crown 4-door also has an Auto Pilot and dual air.
I trailered the car home (east Texas, near Tyler) yesterday from the Dallas
area. The car attracted much attention. I have several issues to
deal with.
The ammeter "wiggles" erratically when it is showing a charge.
Mostly, it remains in the neutral (not charging) position.
The heater core must be leaking, so I've shunted the hoses coming out of
the water pump. There is an obvious coolant leak near the water
pump.
The air conditioners blow air (but not cold).
The valve covers leak very slightly. I've bought new gaskets and will
install them in due time.
The steering feels very "loose" when driving and the steering wheel has too
much play with the engine not running.
Other than that, the car is beautiful. The paint and chrome are in
fantastic condition. The leather is stiff and shows wear, but does not
have any tears.
Thanks again.
