Well, I had plans to attend but discovered my passenger side door latch has broken and won't latch closed. The star shaped gear on the door half just spins. I had set aside enough time today to give...

Got my new battery in so I should be there with mine!
There should definitely be a notch in the edge of the harmonic balancer for timing. It may have been painted over or dirty. I usually put a dab of white paint on it once found so it's easier to see...
Thought I'd dredge up this old thread for an update. The Budget Battery finally pooped out after 4+ years. I decided to look for something a little better but man, these particular batteries are...
Thanks guys. We're not eating cat food just yet and it's actually good motivation for me to get rid of a lot of stuff I just don't need. It's amazing how much you can accumulate when living in one...
Unfortunately it looks like I will need to bow out this year. My wife hasn't had much work for the last 5 months and it looks like she will have to go job hunting. We've been living off one income...
i HOPE to be there but I'm having a yard sale Fri/Sat and I'll see how I feel or if I get enough time to clean up the bird and get the battery charged. I think I'm about due for a new one. I'll...
Never trust your "smart"phone weather app and wear shorts and no jacket! But I scored a few deals and met some nice people and the warm scones were tasty!
Thanks also to Roger for getting his...
Nice job bending and looping those lines! Looks like a clean install.
If they are snug in the channels you may want to consider tweaking the channels open a little if you can do it without damaging the finish. Maybe a stiff putty knife would be enough to pry it open a...
Pat has the tent but I can bring it to the meeting if he can't go. Send me a text Patrick and we can work it out.
I'll try to give the bird a bath tomorrow and bring it.
I thought I would get this thread started and post a scan of the flyer I got in the mail in case somebody didn't receive one. The Columbia River Chapter is sponsoring it this year in Vancouver, WA....
I've always recommended this document to get you started. And they are doing it on a Comet too!

Glad to hear the engine's running like a top now! Sounds like you're pretty close to a maiden voyage around the 'hood?!
I wish I could but I'm booked this weekend. I'm shooting for a yard sale in a couple of weeks so I'm pulling up my stash from the basement. And am going to detail my old Ranger to get it ready for...
I'll grab the jacket next time we see each other. I could probably get the other door done in about 20 minutes after doing the first one. Took a lot of time just to figure out what went where and in...
Sorry, just saw this post! I should be able to come down this Saturday. I may not be there until 10:00 and need to take off about 4 or 4:30 latest. Should be able to knock a few things off the to-do...
Hey everyone! Got this email several days ago from Monte, the FCA region director. Regionals are a great way to see a lot of Falcons in one spot. And it looks like Monte is getting a Falcon migration...
I got something like this and was able to get several out of one sheet. $12.50 w/free shipping

I keep thinking I should do some updates on my website but I'm glad what was there helped. That drive train combination is a great choice and I'm happy with mine. You did a nice job.
Welcome! Nice looking bird and very stock from what I can see. Nathan's distracted by a truck project right now but he's the "club ambassador" in eastern WA.
We have members all over the place so...
I've always heard the rear bumper seal is there to prevent rocks from flying up and bouncing off the inside curve of the bumper, trashing the paint on the rear panel. Even small gravel or grains of...
Love the logo on the front of the hood! A friend gave me a coat hook years ago with that on it. What does it designate? 3/4 ton? Truck line?
That's a nice one! Looks like it's either been kept in good condition or restored at some point. How's it look close up? Interior shot?
I'd like to get a nice early to mid-70s F-series some day if...
I guess I got off easy. I was just a little tired when I got home! Glad everyone is feeling better.
I can't make it this weekend but can come over in April. I'll work on whatever still needs to be...
