So found out that the Fusible Link was burned up. I took the connector of the bulkhead and was able to the fusible link out. All the connections looked good. I purchased a new one plugged it in and I was back on the road! I've been driving it on and off since I get her back up and running...

Thanks all for the great feedback! I purchased new cables for my battery and a new fuse link wire. I'm hoping this will do the trick. I will update once I get the parts in!

I'm curious if the starter or the starter relay was what smoked. I purchased some new wires to replace the current ones in case the wires on the inside got fried.

So I went to take my car out for a Sunday drive and cranked the car like normal. It took a few times for it to turn over (been 2 weeks since I cranked her) and heard a weird click noise so I turned the key off. A few seconds later i saw white smoke coming from the hood. I jumped out and opened...

Thanks all for the comments! I did a quick look at the starter relay and made sure all the wires had solid connections. I did notice that the POS+ battery cable was only about half way down the post on the battery. I took it off and made sure to get it on all the way this time. After that it...

Hello to all! I've seen this issue a few times on my RR. Not often but it does happen. I can go crank the car with no issues and drive around and come home and park the car. The next time I go out to crank her no sound is made when I turn the key. The power comes on and the gauges start working...

I just completed my front end. Here are some pictures...

Here is a picture of the white plastic piece that's in the wire harness. Anyone seen this before???

Okay so I followed the wire harness to the back seat and didn't see an adapter. I took the rear bottom seat out to look and also didn't see an adapter running along side the fender to the carpet. I talked to the guy that had the car before me and he told me that he purchased a new harness from...

Did you have to dig down behind the back seat? I tried reaching back to feel for a wire connector but no luck. I was thinking about taking back seat out to see if maybe it feel down below.

Great pics! I will check when I get home to see if I can get it wired up! The fender tag states that my car had the A01 light package. I would think it would have the wire adapter if that's the case but I could be wrong. I'll just crawl back in the trunk and dig around and see if I can feel any...

Hey y'all :) I just purchased a trunk light for my 69 RR. I'm trying to figure out where exactly it mounts on the inside of the trunk. I can see where the switch mounts but not the light. I have also looked at the wiring that runs on the inside trunk that powers the tail lights but cannot see a...

Hello to all fellow Roadrunners :) So I just completed my front end suspension project and waiting on a new gas tank. The gauge works fine already and kind of scared to replace the sending unit if its reading correctly. I just want to put a new tank in because the other one is so beat up. Any...

I finally got some time this past weekend to play around with the car. I have changed out the thermostat twice and on the second time i drilled two holes in it. After 10 mins it would start running hot. This time i pulled the stock temp sending unit from the block and put in the autometer...

I actually ended up purchasing a Auto meter Electric Gauge. Auto Meter Sport Comp 2-5/8" Electrical Water Temperature Gauge. I knew I wanted to go with Auto Meter but didn't really know if I should go electric or not. Should I return this one and go with a different one? If so please give me a...

Thanks guys for the tips! I ordered a better thermostat and just waiting on it. When it comes in I will drill one hole and install it. This time I will jack the car up and have the heater on with temp all the way up. Then I will start filling the radiator until it is completely full. I will look...

Do you think it could still be an air bubble that was created after the new thermostat was opened? I've been driving the car around with the heater on and fan off just trying to get it hot enough to open the thermostat hoping that the bubbles will some how go away if I can get the coolant to...

Okay so i did the above post and make sure the bubbles were completely gone jacked up. I topped it off and closed it up and let her cool down. I just took her out for a spin and the needle went straight to H after a few seconds. I noticed if I gunned the accelerator the temp went towards C. So I...

So when you say drill 1/16 hold in the thermostat where do you drill the hole? I replaced it before knowing to do so. I read others saying to drill a hole but not sure where. I did jack the car up and filled the radiator and even squeezed on the hose a little until I didn't see air bubbles. I'm...

Okay so i put a funnel in the radiator and filled it up half way. I turned the temp all the way up and move know to heat but left the fan in off position. I cranked the car up and let it run twenty minutes and saw air bubbles coming out. I squeezed on the radiator hose and noticed many more...
