Re: Oh Lordy, I now own a Fordy (a Lincoln actually)..
The reproduction license plate arrived today from www.licenseplates.tv. TV-77 was my grandfather's plate issued by the State of New York. the official "TV" plates were specifically issued to television station employees, similar to the official "PRESS" plates they have today. Since WABC was 77 on the AM dial, he chose that plate early in his career and kept it for decades. When he officially retired he had to turn the plates in, which didn't make him too happy at the time. So now his car has its (new) old plate back again. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

That's pretty cool. You should do a Member's Rides story on that '64 - love to hear about it. Man, a family could live in that Lincoln Steve

Re: Oh Lordy, I now own a Fordy (a Lincoln actually)..
I need to get one of the unique A/C hoses rebuilt for my Grandfather's 1971 Lincoln Continental. The hose was rubbing against the master cylinder, and wore a hole in the rubber section of the hose. These cars were unique in that they used a GM A6 compressor and the complete Frigedaire A/C setup just like any 1970's GM car. No one makes the replacement hoses for them.
Does anyone out there recommend a specific shop that can replace the rubber hose section and reattach the ends (or replace them)? Thanks.

Re: Oh Lordy, I now own a Fordy (a Lincoln actually)..
Someone on the CRG had modified/made a set of dies for a Weatherhead hydraulic crimping machine to replicate the factory crimp on the AC hoses (your appear to have the same crimp), you will have to do a site search as it was a few years ago if memory serves.

Re: Oh Lordy, I now own a Fordy (a Lincoln actually)..
I ended up sending the hose to Classic Auto Air in Tampa. They gave me a price of $112 to redo the hose with my ends. Hopefully done in a week or two...or as soon as the cold weather hits.
I did find an NOS Ford hose for the other side high pressure line for $45!
