Hello all! It's been quiet here because I lost access to my page since August of last year and just recently got it back. Since then I've had to get glasses, so there's that. If you want to contact me, please contact me via email or text. Messages here get lost pretty easily. Thanks!

More from the 1967 Lincoln Continental. The top didn't want to behave, so it's back for me to check it out. This was so ahead of it's time in 1967. Electrics, hydraulics, 10 different relays and 4 solenoids to run everything.

FYI: The rear seat cushion is not installed for troubleshooting, otherwise, the back seat would look nicer.

Ever wondered what's inside your vehicles junction box? It's this: layers of plastic and metal to get power flowing from one place to another through fuses. It's the same concept as printed circuit boards but low tech. Happy ice day, y'all!

Customer states: "My car is making a clunking noise."
Me: "I found your noise, it's coming from your strut."
Struts function as shock absorbers. They should never do this.
