1967 Lincoln Project Update 17 May 2024 Detail Work

Made an appointment at Midas to have them custom make connector pipes to replace the flex pipes between the resonators and mufflers. This will take care of the tire rubbing issue. Some other minor work. Drove the car today to Midas - love driving this beast! Have ordered a rebuilt ATC box from Tony Bolin. Have also ordered a set of replacement door panels from a Facebook seller and also received the last set of pull handle clips for the last door. Have also installed some replacement LED lamps.

Glad you will get the exhaust finished as you will enjoy driving it just on a whim.

Thanks. That will be nice!

Couldn't help but notice how nice the headliner appears to be in your continental. Pleased that Midas can custom bend pipes for you. Do you plan to have them welded to the mufflers & resonators, or use clamps and hangers. I was so pleased with the quietness and lack of rattles after having several of my exhaust systems welded from front to back.

[@victorpalma6529]

I agree that is a nice headliner. I will ask Midas to weld the pipe to the muffler which is the original OEM design, but I will keep the flanges that connect the resonators and mufflers together. I have some high temp sealer that I'm going to use on the flanges. That should do it.

Will you be driving the Lincoln to Texas?

[@victorpalma6529]

Still debating. Would really like to, but might be too many vehicles to drive so may have to trailer it behind the Uhaul.

@@victorpalma6529 understand. I did something like that once many years ago.
