    Big Mike's Audio Overhaul Progress Thread!

    So, this afternoon, before I headed to the beach with my family for some grillin' and chillin', the UPS fairy (well, idk his preferences, but still) brought me birthday presents. So, now that it's all here I'll be using this as a progress thread to document my soundproofing the doors, install...

    My new '97 Silver Frost is finally up and going (pics)

    The car you all helped me to decide to buy in my '95 vs. '97 thread is finally respectable enough to post pics of, so here it is! I bought a coil conversion and brought my car up to Jamie, I drove it 60 miles on pancaked air-ride. Jamie ended up cutting the old front struts (I mean shocks...

    Florida Black on Black Gen II seems like a decent deal...

    It needs some work, but the price is right, and at least the seller seems to attempt honesty. I see there is some bad clearcoat, speedo isn't working, it needs and IAC, neon is iffy, etc. Seems kind like a good project if the buyer is willing to make a deal... Just thought maybe someone may want...

    Which coil conversion is best?

    What kit do you guys think I should get to convert my '97 to springs? To keep the air-ride I'd need a compressor assembly, 2 front bags, air-ride computer, and proabably one new rear line. I think coils are the way to go. Which kit is best for ride/handling?

    Anyone know someone in the Sarasota-Tampa area who fixes cars on the side?

    I need to find a guy (or whoever) in the local area somewhere between southern Tampa and Venice that fixes cars. I don't care if he needs to do the work in a wal-mart lot, as long as it's a quality job. I need the LCAs and UCAs replaced because I live in an apartment complex that doesn't permit...

    1995 MArk VIII Brake issues - Soft pedal, abs code 17, etc

    Hello, I have a problem with my brakes. Yesterday afternoon I started experiencing a very soft pedal, to stop the car I have to pump the brakes or mash them to the floor. This started after using the cruise on the highway and using the brake to deactivate it. After I did, the cruise would not...

    A/C makes my car run hot

    Whenever I drive with the a/c off it's right at 1/2 way up the gauge, but if I drive it with the a/c on at any speeds below 65 or so it runs steady at almost 3/4 up the gauge, same thing at idle. It won't get hotter than that, it stays there. I think this is odd, and my 93 never did this, so, I...

    Big Mike's new(ish) '95 progress thread

    ***SCROLL DOWN FOR PICS OF NEW FIXED PAINT!*** I went back to driving a lincoln recenty after I sold my GTP. I Found a '95 Mark VIII for $1900 on craigslist. Description was the standard lackluster newspaper ad style abbreviated crap, but it said "obo" so I gave them a call. Drove down to...
