Any broken H/O Tac"s

Hurstolds1973 — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 22:23:55 GMT

I have lost another H/O Console Mounted Harmon Digital Tach on EvilBay!

Does anyone have a broken or empty core of one that they want to sell? I have been searching for a way to make one and I think I might have a close solution ???? Maybe... idunno.... but I want to try!

Defroster

bonezarally — Mon, 06 Sep 2010 01:17:13 GMT

I have a 77 Cutlass and I'm having problems with the defroster not working. Everything appears to be hooked up correctly. When I turn it on, only the heat blows - not the vents or defrost. Is there anyone out there that might be able to help me? Thanks! :D

Newby with a 74 cutlass

Tom — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 03:20:32 GMT

Hi

I just picked up a very nice 74 Cutlass hardtop with only 27,000 miles.

I had a 77 a long time ago but liked the 73-75's a little better because of the front end and unique lines on the side. Anyhow, they are all pretty cool and I will post a picture or two when I figure out how to do it. (My kids will have to bail me out)

I get a lot of comments at the local shows because it seems nobody see's this model / year anymore.

This is a great site ...see ya'

repairing a dash for a 77

Allen442 — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:11:14 GMT

Well I've attempted to do this this once before but used the wrong type of spray form. The foam was to soft and teared, this foam holds up a lot better. It's coming long pretty well, besides from one low spot on the top I have some small holes I need to fill. I have a few test pieces that I have been experimenting on and I believe I may have a solution. When its all said in done its going to be red.

Has anybody ever tried this before or have any ideas, what do you think?
If you have ever priced Just Dashes they want $1200 and you still have to pay for shipping. There is another place in Oregon that restores dashes but they sill want $700. When I'm done I'll be in this probably $50.00 or so plus my time. Wish me luck. I think its going to work.

Turn signal Lever

NeilZ — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 15:44:58 GMT

Does anyone know if the 68-72 lever will fit ?

Thanks,

Another H/O magazine article!

jwsolds — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 04:36:42 GMT

Just wanted to give a heads up on another great article on a one owner '75 H/O in October's issue of MUSCLECAR ENTHUSIAST. A few more '70s cars including a '73 Grand Am also.

Have to dig out my numbers because I believe the W-25 numbers quoted in that article is wrong. Even with the little typo, great article and very fine car! I especially like the Saddle compaticolor interior, though they call the seat cloth Hurst Gold? in the article.

Bumper is sunk woot woot

THE MALIGOON — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 20:32:54 GMT

Well Limey got the front bumper sunk today its alot easier than I thought it would be, 1st of these pics are before the process

Only had to drill (very carefully) 3 hole's in the shock's

1st step measure to make sure both sides are even (pay attention to that the most) if not you will sink one side more than the other (for example) my drivers side only needed 2 1/4 " to be pushed in, while the passenger side needed almost 2 1/2 " pushed in

2nd step drill a hole in the bumper shock that goes through the frame first (there is frame access to do this) remember to wear eye protection for its pressurized oil

3rd step drill a hole in the bumper shock close to where it slide back in (so you dont see a drilled hole when you push it in) be careful drilling this one it has the pressurized gas ( and it stinks LOL)

4th step Repeat step one so your able to put a self starting screw to hold both pieces in place

wallah your done enjoy your new bumper looks

I had to put new bolts in there as well, the the size you will need is 1.5" x 7/16" and they have the retainers/washers ( <<== on inside only retainer acts as the outer washer) you will need as well at local hardware store
