A/C deicing switch sensor
by Jim Gray 16 Jul '16

Reinstalling A/C on-off switch. Approximately how far does the temp sensing tube go into the fan housing? As I remember the excess tubing was in a loose coil near to one of the refrigerant hoses. Thanks in advance. Jim Gray

1972 Pre-L stock mufflers needed
by MikeLDrew＠aol.com 16 Jul '16

16 Jul '16

Guys, A friend recently bought a 1972 Pre-L Pantera with a completely vile, home-made exhaust system. He's looking for a set of Hall headers (I have a set for sale if necessary, but he would entertain buying one from somebody else instead) and more importantly, a set of stock mufflers in good condition. There were four different styles of mufflers used on the Pre-L cars. The first and second series used a small muffler that was only 8 inches across, while the third series used a relatively huge muffler that was 9 7/16 inches across. What he wants/needs is the most plentiful one, the fourth series, which used the definitive muffler style (also used on the L-model mufflers) with the tips angled upwards (L-model mufflers have the tips coming straight out of the muffler cans. Loads of you have upgraded to various aftermarket systems so there should be plenty of good, useable stock 1972 Pre-L mufflers lying about. How about you contact me if you want to sell yours? Thanks!

Extra words of advice. Project it on a big screen and turn up the bass. You can almost feel the road through the tire and wind noise.

Re: [DeTomaso] Relay Activated Battery Cut-off switch

Rob, What you are looking for is commonly used on boats and RVs. Google "marine battery disconnect relay" or "RV battery disconnect relay." The relay can be mounted close to the battery and controlled by a switch in the driver's compartment. The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing. Do the best you can with what your have where you are. Have fun today! SOBill Rob, What you are looking for is commonly used on boats and RVs.

email fishers using my name
by Larry Finch 15 Jul '16

15 Jul '16

All, Emails have been received by me and another list member that show they are from me - Larry Finch Text signature even shows it is from my iPhone. But …MY... iPhone signature is NOT the stock Apple phrase used in these phishing attacks. If you click on the sender’s address, you’ll see my name followed by a domain that is unknown to me. One of them traced out to a firm in Kiev. ALL my email addresses are hosted by AOL If you drop down my sender name in an email header and it does not show AOL, delete it. Larry
