Wishing a Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all of our
group members. I guess you just can’t keep a good car down. I went
out and hooked up the battery in my Coupe, (the one that had the engine
compartment fire) and I was able to start it up and move it to a more suitable
parking space. The power steering hose parted at the hard connection on the
steering box. Luckily (so far) I have only found both P/S hoses and both A/C
hoses burned, along with a few cooked wires. Could have been a lot worse. After
moving the car, I tried to use the key to shut it off, and it wouldn’t
shut off. Had to pull the coil wire. I also wanted to thank all of the club members that
sent advice on parts procurement. That has helped a lot. If any of you
are interested I have pictures of the Imperial posted here www.1962to1965mopar.ornocar.com/ml-kinker64imperial.html
Enjoy the holidays! Thanks again! Bob Kinker |
