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
