Jeff's 71 4-door dime


Recommended Posts

Got my seat mounted better with recaro rails. Added a wink mirror. The big update was I finally hooked up the cold start valves on the carbs. I used a factory SU twin choke cable. I should have done this a long time ago! Used to take a ton of pedal pumping and at least 6-7 tries to get it to sputter to life. Now, two pumps, turn the key, and it fires up with a smooth idle.

I read in a few places that the cold starts on the dcoe was kind of useless so I didn't make it a priority. Bad idea, totally worth the few minuets to hook em up.

Alright so it looks like I've picked up this mini muscle car from a Craigslist trade. Kinda nice the build was left up and I can pick up from where he left off. Ill post some pics and info this weekend once I have time. So happy to be driving this beast.
