We arrived in Scottsdale on the first day of the event. There are no auctions, but the cars are arriving and staging up. Lots of fun. Venders have time to chat, and I’ve interacted with some at previous auctions.

This 1969 Roadrunner had a few issues.

Check it out:

Like all classic cars, leaks have to be dealt with. I don’t personally subscribe to the notion that all old cars leak. They do until you fix them.

My 76 Stingray gets fewer miles to the quart of power steering fluid than it does miles per gallon of gas. So, I need to shake down the unit to see where it’s coming from.

This video shows my process.

Thanks for watching, and drop me a note, and a like, and subscribe.

I am working on the Vega steering wheel that my 1976 Stingray came with. I want to convert it to fit my new steering wheel, but….well…you watch and drop me a comment.
