I previously had a 65 442, I like the 88 better....Thanks for all the previous posts, especially about the Slim Jim trans.

 

Beautiful car. It is awsome to see other people that like the big cars.

 

Welcome and very nice car.

What kind of rims are they?

 

 

Redog, the rims say ADR Design on them, 19x7. Oldsfan, I think it is previously Shane's car that you mention. What mouldings do you mean are from the Dynamic? I know it did not have the fender mirrors and moulding below the doors reinstalled. It is a blast to drive. I have a vacume door problem with the AC in the summer, it does not want to blow out the vents properly, it would rather blow out near the floor. Otherwise it is great, I have put about 4k miles on it and so far up to 72k miles.

 

If you have a problem with the air doors chances are you just need to rebuild your air plenum. I just did that on my 64 98. It is a big job but well worth it. Your vacuum acutators are probably old and in need of cleaning. I know mine were.

 

Paul, I see what you mean about the side mouldings. The guy I got the car from did not mention changing the side mouldings, but it seems to have been done.
I will try to fix the AC in the spring, the heater works good now. I have a '62 manual that has some info on the vacume routing, maybe it will help. Layne

 

Yeah, when I did my air plenum it would have been near impossible without the vacuum diagrams.

 

I had to replace all the vacuum hoses, with the diagram, of course. I would start there, then see what works and what doesn't... Enjoy the ride !
