No follow-up on this video? I have a 68 lincoln I purchased that I found 2 pushrods bent exactly like this. Have you found the cause and the the fix? Was it the cam? Lifters? Timing chain??????????

The 3M kit we use at work consists of 6 500 grit pads, 4 800 grit pads, and a single 3000 Trizact pad. The method I found that works the absolute best is what I call the “Dry-Wet-Wet” method. Use the 500 grit pads dry, use the 800 grit pads wet as well as the Trizact pad. And I don’t skimp on the water on the wet sanding because it keeps the pads cleaner longer and rinses away the plastic particles.

They sell some stuff at auto zone it’s a polish and lasts about 6 months the bottle will last 10 years and if you use it regularly your lens will always look new I been doing it to my 2005 Yukon xl since I got the Yukon in 2005 lights still look great

It's unfortunate that once the original surface degrades away even a repolished lens doesn't last as well as the manufactured surface. Same thing goes for retrobrightened plastic honestly - once the original plastic begins to break down it's going to continue 😔 However being able to do this yourself is still WAY cheaper than replacing the lenses!

gotta love an old ferd, next time, try filling the carb thru its vent pipe, dont have to crank the hell outta it to prime it that way i wouldnt worry too much about the brakes, just get a dual master instead of the single line one. you might be suprised how good it stops, my old merc will put you into the windsheild, until they get hot, brake fade off the highway is deff real with drums lol

Thanks Pete! Appreciate it and agreed. Not sure what I’m going to do with it now. It is running and driving now. And other than the cosmetic stuff due to sitting and being vandalized, the reverse gear is about 80% dead as expected. But then I also picked up a very clean white 97 420 with 107k on it that is actually in very good condition minus the headgasket leak. It runs fine and doesn’t overheat but when it cools it leaks into one cylinder enough to hydrolock it if I don’t release the pressure before letting it sit. Guy just put $4k into it in suspension repairs then this happened. He was going to just junk it so I offered some and got it for $200. Man the 97s are so much nicer.

Any videos on it? I acquired this idenicsl model and spec it sat since 2012. The entire front wiring harness was chewed in half by mice and the engine harness was deteriated also the plastic lifter oilers were leaking with low oil pressure and top end rattle. Everything is gixed now and i absolutley love this car. Lots of presence and very substantial lol. Gazing at the three pointed star driving on back roads it seamlessly cruises through corners and accelerates with ease. Its not fast but for late 80s engineering and a 2 and a half ton car it is impressive.
