Price: US $3,900.00 SOLD OUT
- brand new 17" Ridler 675 series with new Firestone FR710s - identical diameter and offset to original wheels (also included)I purchased this in March 2015 from Welford Harris Ford as a daily driver and project, but the company is moving us in a hurry. It had a bad booster and vacuum leaks were affecting idle, brakes, etc.Fast-forward to today, I've sealed all tube joints and branches with RTV, replaced the booster and had the carb rebuilt at Champion Carb in Texas, and while the start and idle and acceleration are fine, the booster is missing its "reaction bumper" - the brakes are super-strong and balanced front and rear - but way too reactive. Until the reaction bumper is installed you have to feather the brakes with a light foot - too much and it'll easily lock up.A new reaction bumper is coming from Prior Brake in Dallas (they did the rebuild) and should be here by Weds the 18th. Installation will be less than 5 minutes.Only other thing I would do if I had time (my company will not move the car, only our Acura) would be to get a vacuum booster pump from MasterPower in Mooresville - the idle vacuum is nice and smooth at -14 inches, but all boosters operate much better at -15 to 18". I can only wonder if the engine was recammed at some point - I've set timing it at the factory 10 degrees - it was at 6 when I bought it.Thanks for looking - a clean NC title in my name and a bill of sale will be ready for you.
