seems to be a common problem on our trucks. Tired of jacking around with used hinges, swapping springs etc. hoping it will get better but its driving my nuts... and I have it on good authority that I don't have far to go anyway. Did a search and from what I read the aftermarket hinges are junk. Woul...

On a related note what is the problem with a speedometer that the reading just jumps all the place? Been driving my 66 a lot more lately and its bugging me a lot.

Destroyed one trying to put in from the front. "Destroyed one trying to put in from the front." Yup, exactly what I thought and am trying to avoid. Every old one I have seen just comes out in pieces too, so no point of reference. First experience with a new one... guess I'm not gonna do t...

Here is mine for those that haven't seen it. 63 F100 http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u254/stonezones63/63%20F100%20Pics/63F100347.jpg Kevin Kevin, bad a@%$ build...any info on bed cover in particular? Been thinking about that for the longest time. And yours is the look I be wanting. Low profile ...

Recently got back to work on my Slick after a long lapse. Just some minor things at this time due to weather and LIFE in general. Anyway, ordered a new glove box due to the absence of one...want to put the registration etc. out of sight but in the truck. Started to install, but it appears to me that...

As far as the inserts for said factory knobs, I tried cutting a circle from the top off a Wimbledon white touchup paint from Duplicolor....I think 5/8" diameter (verify this yourself). Worked out good, only slight difference in color from remaining factory inserts. Due to the shape of the spray...

Your'e S. of Charlotte-cool. I work in S. Charlotte, off Arrowood Rd. I live to the North, in Statesville, commute every day. Ask ME if I think gas prices SUCK...

Thanks for the info, y'all. I was hoping that "none needed" was the right answer. That @%^& was a booger to clean up. Later, FreeBird

I am swapping the windshield from my parts truck to my other '66. My homework indicated that no sealer was originally used around the gasket. However, both of the windshields I have removed had sealer used. So, question is should I use sealer around the one I reinstall? Don't want leaks of course, a...

Looked at mine, think he's right...roll pin. Anyway, bought the dome light bezel got it installed and workin'...ITS RIGHTEOUS...Nice piece, and can't wait for further developments. By the way, Ranchero, how about them tailight bezels I mentioned....any plans for something like that?

Why is it that everything I think is going to be relatively simple on my '66 CC styleside turns out to be a CLUSTER$%^#@!? Everything and I mean EVERYTHING touched by the guy I bought her from (and who knows how many others before him) turns out to be exactly that....I have no issues with what Ford ...

Thanks Jason, my alt. is an aftermarket unit I bought a while back for another project. Doesn't have the plug like the Delco unit, and I can't find the paperwork that came with it. Will look at/study the diagram in your link again though, when I get time later today, see if it makes sense for my ins...

I've been sorting out the usual previous owner issues with the electrical system- just about finished I think except for one in particular, maybe a couple more. Anyway,original problem was alt light ('66 CC instrument panel) which stayed on even though alt was charging-would even stay on with igniti...

Woops-not Jeff, meant to say James...anywho,you know who ya are

I got mine yesterday after returning from vacation....REALLY nice piece of work. Ya'll would not be disappointed. Thanks again, Jeff.

Great lookin' work there Ranchero....I'll take 1 lens/bezel assembly.
let me know when ready, will be Paypal payment. Just wonderin', any thoughts about other similar parts-say for instance,taillight bezels?

ROTFLMBAO!!!!

Thanks ya'll. So, the MC should be OK to use I take it, as it would have been for a disc/drum setup originally. I do plan to swap the front brakes to discs, as I do drive in Charlotte every day as FBp alluded to.... in my Ranger. But I want to be able to drive in the Slick should I choose/need to do...

When I am finished with killin' all the electrical system "Gremlins", next project for the '66 Slick is the brake upgrade to front discs along with total rebuild of brake system and rebuild of front suspension. So in regard to the brake part, got parts needed and I believe, a pretty good g...

Thanks again y'all. Will try for molded hoses with different size ends first, but if I have to I will settle for flex with different size ends. Like Pete said, gotta get back to driving. What started out as a simple power steering conversion became a cooling system upgrade, remove and clean/paint al...
