It's really good to have the forum back! I was relatively new to it when it crashed and burned and it might have been all of the searches that I did that contributed...
A little background. I kinda ended up with a '61 hardtop Sedan de ville by accident which needed a bit of work to make it drivable and reliable. Well it's been a ton of fun working on this car and the early sixties technology never ceases to amaze me. I had to replace most of the suspension bushings etc. and I found a good original carb which made a big difference. I had a bunch of vapour lock problems last year along with some 'running on' probably due to the extremely hot weather in our summer which I sorted by the addition of an electric Carter fuel pump and now only use the highest octane fuel I can find.
I replaced the carpets and while I had the seats out I repaired the power seats which work perfectly now. Just last week I replaced all of the rubber seals including the window glass channels, all belt-lines etc. It turned out to be a bigger job than I thought but it was job worth doing.
Down at this side of the world it can be a bit difficult, especially with the distance problem, not too mention an unfavourable exchange rate when we are buying parts from the US so that makes forums like this priceless when it comes to sourcing information from the 'been there done that' guys
