Hi,
I've had the car for a dozen years but I am now
finally putting it into real road worthy shape. I want it to be area
daily driver and look great but a show car per se. It's a pink 60
Imperial with the 413. I'm having it repainted the same
color.
Could someone
please advise me on which electronic conversion would be best for my
car. Also is there a specific set of air shocks that will give the best
ride. I have the dealers aftermarket air conditioning system. Is
it best to leave it with the R12 refrigerant rather than doing the conversion
to the modern refrigerant? I was told that it was less likely to leak if
I leave it as is.
Should I just replace the original speaker rather than
having it reconed? Has anyone used the secret audio system for radio and
CD changer and any suggestion on speaker placement that does not involve
ruining the look of the car.
I will have a few extra parts available soon after
this restoration. Some of the original factory air parts for the dash
and underneath that I picked up in New Mexico. I heard that it was much
too difficult to restore a factory air conditioning system. I will also
have a standard deck lid since I am replacing mine with a flight sweep. I
think I will be keeping my standard bench seat. In that case the swivel
seats will be available. they are mostly frame and are in serious need
of complete upholstery. Is there any real reason to put this in my
car? Will it really add to comfort or look? Any
suggestions?
Thanks for the
help,
David
