[T3] Even Darth Vader had a good side (Hint: The Erkson family has a new member)


<x-flowed>Okay, some of you are probably gonna faint when you hear this. Okay, deep breath...Today I bought a 1972 (Nov. 1971) Squareback with stock fuel injection (and COMPLETE heating system and muffler), automatic tranny, stock sunroof, almost perfect cargo mat, and an installed BN2 gas heater!

Here's the details (and pictures are linked in there, too):

I'm going to need to replace the front fuel lines...what diameter of line do I need? I'll also need to do some investigative work on the automatic as the shifting sometimes engages hard and other times I have to let off the gas to get it to up-shift (go to the next higher gear). Luckily the Bentley has a decent trouble-shooting guide for the automatic.

The car is sometimes painfully slow, making me realize that my baby (my first T3) is actually pretty quick for a T3. Oops, I gotta update my signatures now, rats :-D
